If I understand correctly, this is what sidechains are about? https://github.com/memo/eco-nft#still-using-ethereum https://github.com/memo/eco-nft#still-using-ethereum.
- EGreg 6y agoI like this section better: Using other blockchains: Instead of Ethereum, other blockchains are used. This can be up to hundreds of times better for the environment in terms of carbon footprint. Some of these chains include Algorand, Tezos, Polkadot and other PoS networks.
- dmitryminkovsky 6y agoYeah, but then isn't there a risk of any such network becoming popular and then you've got the same problem as with Ethereum?
- EGreg 6y agoNot at all, unless the network has a global bottleneck like a miner. Networks built on global blockchains are the problem. And if they use proof of work that’s even worse!
- dmitryminkovsky 6y agoOh I didn’t see PoS there. I didn’t know there were such networks out there in production.
