I agree that plastic currency does have similar drawbacks to cryptos, but paper currency can be easily used without electricity usage after initial creation - and it can also be used completely anonymously. The same advantages go for silver and gold coins when used as money. There are always tradeoffs.

I am very aware of that. I hope you realize that there are people, including myself, who do consider energy use. It is a only one consideration among many concerns that I have regarding digital currencies.

A consideration is not just the energy to mine or create a currency, but the continuing costs to use the currency. Inherent to Bitcoin is energy consumption to verify every on-chain transaction. A dollar bill, silver coin, or gold coin can be used to transact without expending any appreciable amount of energy relative to their initial production costs. The free market should ultimately decide, but ongoing costs, ease of use, store of value, etc will all factor into mass adoption.

Are you referring to the book: "Cause Unknown": The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths in 2021 & 2022?

I pulled up the official David Bowie "Heros" video on youtube. One of the top comments from a year ago is: "You know your[sic] watching good film, when this song comes on." I just smiled and nodded to myself.

I read the Bitcoin Standard when it first came out when it was heavily pushed and recommended by Bitcoin advocates. I was unconvinced then, and still am. There are far too many logical fallacies and false assumptions throughout it to make a compelling argument for me. I recommend anyone to read it, but to analyze it with a discerning mind.

I still don't know which teams played in it.

I agree. TPTB only use government as a means to an end. I doubt they care what form it takes, so long as they can maintain control. A crony capitalistic "democracy" is probably the easiest way to keep the masses pacified while maintaining productivity and allowing them to build their wealth, power, and influence.
