RE: Is Bitcoin destroying the environment, or is it all just FUD? (OC)

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Wow, nice article clearly explained energy usage of bitcoin for both newbies and pro. Thank you for the effort and time. I'm not a big fan of bitcoin using PoW as there is alternative POS algorithm which is equally good and doesn't consume massive amount of power. That's why I like PIVX, which is anonymous and pos.

thanks for reading! I like a few PoS protocols as well, and I hope that they work. To me, PoW is straightforward, and what I want my $200 bill + mkt cap coin to use. I think time will tell on PoS. I like that PoW requires off-blockchain resources to be risked (energy) as opposed to just the coin on the PoS network. I haven't read into stake grinding much, but what I've seen is worrysome. What are your favorite PoS learning resources? I can't wait for Mastering Ethereum to come out.
