There's a new paper from the Digital Assets Research Institute (da-ri.org), "Runaway Citations & Bitcoin Misinformation V2.0" that I found out about recently. As the title suggests, the article ( https://docsend.com/view/q9aas79d94csuf8z) points out there’s a list of publications related to Bitcoin’s energy usage with methodological flaws. And then contrasts them to studies with reproducible methodologies related to Bitcoin’s energy usage. Naturally, I was curious about the actual conclusions of the studies with reproducible methodologies and wanted to add them to my to-read list. It takes a minute to collate it all, so I thought I’d save you some time and share the list. They are here (there are even 2 links to directly chat with papers 🤯 2024 is wild) as replies because otherwise it's too long a post :) Have fun, and share what you learn.
