Tesla's Bitcoin investment has triggered a price rally for the cryptocurrency - and a climate protection disaster. Because the energy consumption of the network increases disproportionately due to a special mechanism. How does that fit in with Elon Musk's world-saver ideals?
Tesla's 1.5 billion investment drove Bitcoin's price to the dollar up 14 percent.
The digital currency has continued its rally since the beginning of the year and rose to over $ 46,000, the equivalent of 38,400 euros.
But the cheers about the Bitcoin completely hide the dark side of the digital currency.
