Cryptocurrencies need to get their shit together. It consumes 0.5% of the world's energy today, and consumes 20% more month over month. May 2018: 1/200. Dec 2020: 200/200. Cryptocurrencies need to be banned today. Not tomorrow. Not in a year. Today.https://grist.org/article/bitcoins-energy-use-got-studied-and-you-libertarian-nerds-look-even-worse-than-usual/amp …

I mean, instead of ban something isn’t it better to focus on what we, developers are good at? Make a better tech and so.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof-of-stake …
Yeah, probobly not. If you look at the energy used by for example Ethereum, it's better - but still bad. Remember that Visa powers half the planet's transactions, and it barely costs a thing. We have 18 months left. Banning seems the most efficient. https://digiconomist.net/ethereum-energy-consumption …
