I would love to go through your article with you on a call, since as I mentioned, it's easy to point out issues, but requires a little more time to explain the actual correct formulations. You can write to me at tstrolight@gmail.com if you're open to setting up a call.

However, here are the issues:

1) bitcoin's mining algorithm does not require increased energy consumption as time goes on - it adjusts dynamically to the energy used over 2016 block 'epochs' and actually goes down from time to time (it will only grow if the ratio of the value of bitcoin to energy increases exponentially actually due to the 'halving' of rewards). Although transaction fees insure that there will always be incentive to use energy to mine.

2) Nobody on earth mines bitcoin with GPUs as it's impossible to profit off of it due to their inefficiency at calculating SHA256 hashes compared to ASICs. GPUs are only used in altcoin mining.

3) Bitcoin's power consumption is actually very easy to estimate (and not a mystery at all)because the difficulty of mining bitcoins is calculated by every node operator (and is identical for all of them) so any reasonable estimate of what amount of energy is needed to compute a trilion hashes can simply be multiplied by the required difficulty in trillions of hashes to get a very accurate estimate of energy requirements

4) bitcoin mining is not terribly 'covert', with several large public companies already in the space and they are growing their share

5) mining bitcoin is unlikely to ever stop if people are using it as currency whether there's little or lots of energy going into it

6) infinite supply of money - which is what you end up with if you include altcoins, that can infinitely spun up with no energy leads to worthless money. Only a scarce good is useful for money ( I appreciate you're targetting infinite wealth, but you mention infinite money and we can have infinite dollars already which only leads to massive impoverishment)
