Does anyone know I'd proof of stake ended up being better than proof of work? I dont follow crypto but kept hearing that was supposed to improve things
Crypto is a big deal because it enables grifting and crime, but with how shit payment processors are and their tendency to use their position for censorship, crypto actually would be a potential way of solving that problem IF it werent ludicrously volatile and wasteful. But I have no idea if those problems could really ever be solved, or any progress has been made on those fronts
Yes, Ethereum has been using PoS successfully for over three years and they're not the only major blockchain to do so. PoS works great these days, still using PoW in 2026 is a deliberate choice.
