There has been ample discussion on this and varying opinions, but I think most people would say that the bitcoin's value determines the amount of energy required to generate them, and not the other way around.<br/><br/>In the short run, the energy cost of generation may ensure a baseline value, but in the long run the value will be solely based on human behavior.<br/><br/>Thanks for pushing for a slashdot feature, bitcoin could <i>really</i> use some publicity to help it grow.</div> text/html
