why this? because a trezor is more expensive than a safe you would keep inside your wall? how about travelling with the gold? how about moving a lot of gold lets say like a truck as the example already mentioned? I usually travel and take my trezor along when needed... and its still in the same safe behind the wall as I would keep a gold bar or something valuable.
I would like to ask something.. cant we have estimates or analogies of same type like "internet servers now consuming more electricity than China" for example? I mean, its obvious! Any system wide available and requested, as internet or blockchain nodes to process transactions, based in computing which uses computers which are powered by energy, will spend energy to work. You guys are smart and I cant even comp to those maths on kilowatts etc, but really... I only see this electricity consumption GROWING as we are powering more and more systems, to be datacenters, vms, containers for the internet, same way to feed blockchain systems around the globe. I don't know if the point here is like "bad bitcoin it consumes energy" or just a pure analysis. cheers folks
