Cryptocurrency is rapidly emerging as a prominent player in the global financial system, characterized by its decentralized nature and absence of centralized government oversight. However, this autonomy raises significant environmental concerns primarily stemming from energy-intensive mining process. Crypto mining, central to creation new coins transaction validation, results substantial carbon emissions energy consumption. This study employs bibliometric analysis using RStudio scrutinize data sourced Scopus database. Data selection adhered specific inclusion criteria, focusing on research articles documents English language. Exclusion criteria targeted elimination review papers, conference reviews, short surveys, notes, languages other than English. China emerges foremost contributor with frequency 348 total citation count 1259, followed USA 594 citations. Notably, keywords "blockchain" "bitcoin" surface most frequently, occurring 293 148 times, respectively. The posits that China's decision ban cryptocurrency due economic has likely contributed heightened awareness cryptocurrencies. In contrast, actively embraced cryptocurrencies, fostering their widespread circulation. Consequently, these two countries have emerged leading contributors consumption sector. Blockchain, originally broad concept, found applications diverse domains such marketing, finance, healthcare, supply chain, Internet Things (IoT). adoption expanded scope considerations cryptocurrencies encompass blockchain technology whole. Future should focus regulation, alternative mechanisms, renewable sources, technological advancements, offsetting solutions. article also addresses limitations future detail.

The global energy sector has been profoundly reshaped by the COVID-19 pandemic, triggering diverse reactions in demand patterns, accelerating transition toward renewable sources, and amplifying concerns over security digital safety of infrastructure. Five years after pandemic’s onset, this study provides a taxonomy-based lesson-learned analysis, offering comprehensive examination enduring effects on systems. It employs detailed analytical framework to map short-, medium-, long-term transformations across various energy-related sectors. Specifically, investigates significant shifts landscape, including electric conventional vehicle markets, upstream industry (oil, coal, natural gas), generation, aerial transportation, broader implications for continental security. Additionally, it highlights growing importance cybersecurity context evolution remote operations, which became critical during pandemic. is structured dissect initial shock supply demand, environmental consequences reduced fossil fuel consumption, subsequent pivot sustainable recovery pathways. also evaluates strategic actions policy measures implemented globally, providing comparative analysis efforts evolving patterns consumption. In face reduction reveals both spatial temporal disparities, underscoring complexity impact sector. Drawing lessons COVID-19, work emphasizes need flexible, forward-thinking strategies deeper international collaboration build systems that are resilient uncertainties.
