> Even stakers can expend more money for a better chance at receiving the eth2 staking rewards. This will result in just as much energy use for a given reward value as Bitcoin.
I think you are wrong. Staker pays in "time-cost of money", which is proportional to the stake size and in energy cost, which is pretty much constant (few watts). Your argument implies that there will be greater amount of stakers. That would be plausible if not for 32ETH minimal stake.
