    So according to you, there’s a crypto that 1. doesn’t need any capital (computers), 2. doesn’t need wastable energy (power that wouldn’t otherwise be used) and 3. is actually impossible to track across the board?

      From a user perspective yes to all 3.

      From a infrastructure perspective,

      1. You need capital to keep people honest. Nothing at risk means people can lie

      2. Some power is still needed, but Ethereum has gone from the consumption of Chile to a single windfarm.

      3. ZK proofs now allow anyone to create an anonymous token. Most blockchains are opt in for anonymity.
