Will bitcoin's water footprint be 591 billion gallons this year?
I'm curious to understand the basis for this question regarding Bitcoin's water footprint. Can you elaborate on how this figure of 591 billion gallons was calculated? Are we considering the energy consumption of mining Bitcoin and translating that into an equivalent water footprint, or is there another metric being used? Understanding the methodology behind this estimate would help provide clarity and context for this potential environmental impact.
