I love how one man created arguably the most complex puzzle in the history of mankind and people shit on it just because it's literally hard to solve (aka "uses energy") and the solutions have value.
What value is that?
The arbitrary one people assign to it by paying a shitton of real money for your fancy rows of 1s and 0s
All value is arbitrary...lol
.... In a capitalist society.
I mean, the amazon forst has no value at all, but when you cut it, it's magically valuable
