You're probably right that the incentives are misaligned. I suppose I'm just reacting against what I feel is an anti-progressive assumption, which is that reducing our carbon footprint to desirable levels will require a massive reduction in our energy footprint.
- woeh 6y agoI understand your sentiment, and I agree that the future probably is one where we use and generate a lot more energy then we do now. But I do hope that in that future we also use that energy a little bit smarter, and proof of work's incentives are indeed aligned poorly from this perspective. Disclaimer: I am conflicted about the subject, because I think there is merit in crypto, and also hold some myself.
