My point was that Ethereum staking can be run on a NUC or even on a Rasperry Pi.
There are no ASICs here. So:

"#Ethereum uses #ASIC|s which makes it way more polluting due to these being useless for anything else."
is completely false. misinformation.

meanwhile:
" the only thing that moving #Ethereum from #PoW to #PoS achieved is raising the wall to make it harder, more expensive amd less attractive for #SmallInvestors to fiddle with it."
Is also demonstrably false.

@cobordism @hyc @voxel IMHO the only thing that moving #Ethereum from #PoW to #PoS achieved is raising the wall to make it harder, more expensive amd less attractive for #SmallInvestors to fiddle with it.

• #NotFinancialAdvice but I would've always disrecommended that espechally after #Buterin et. al. decided to #Backroll due to them and others having been #HornyForMoney and wanting to pull funds from #TheDAO.

Demondtrably, #EthereumClassic would at least be more trustworthy, alas that's an Opinion based off 'vibes'…

• Whether the PoS transition did save energy is debateable since #Ethereum uses #ASIC|s which makes it way more polluting due to these being useless for anything else. #Scalpers are shit but at the very least a #CPU or #GPU can be reused elsewhere…

@dexternemrod #Eeyupp..

The same @BaFin that ignored shortsellers like #SafkhetCapital and had people inside #BaFin invested in #Wirecard and that has been very much incompetent and still has the audacity to demand more powers...

• The only ones getting shafted are #TechIlliterates, #Consumers and #SmallInvestors that can't squish losses under the rug like #SoftBank or #BlackRock do all the time...
