It is useful, it is the transaction that pays you the reward.  It is
hashed by the previous cracker, added to the other transactions, and you
have to crack it.  Once you do, you hash a new one for the next block of
transactions.

It could be decrypting messages tho.

> folding proteins
Games do good things.
Foldit: wikipedia.org/wiki/Foldit
But the credit should go to Dr. Erik Demaine at MIT and his father,
Martin Demaine, for their work on the math behind the folding and
inspiring the game concept.

> Burning carbon
Makes the earth greener.
Which increases the Oxygen saturation of the mixture of gases you call air.

> an awful waste
Etherium, and some others, use Proof of Stake, which might be
interesting to you.
I think any computational process works, like gaming and watching
movies, iirc.

> We are baking the earth quickly enough,
> aren't we?
We aren't.
The earth was many degrees warmer in the middle ages.
There is an increase in oscillation with a decrease in temperature.
We are headed into another ice age.

Also,
China, India, and Africa cause the most pollution.  Especially the
actual shit into the ocean.  Something like the 10 most polluting rivers
that flow into the ocean are in those countries.

And pic related.

> feeling foolish now
Don't.
You used it like a currency, which is it's intention, specifically
"cash-like".
You should be proud.
Buy in at the dip.
Put half in flux and sit on the rest.
Get at least a coin or two, ten is better, so you don't have to do the
sharĂ©̀©blue gig forever.

Joyful Yuletide to you and your family, John.
