What are your thoughts on green/private cryptos? (lemmy.ml)

Im interested in cryptos, because it could serve as a foundation for an internet funded by people and communities. A crypto that protects people's privacy and has a low energy cost.

But is this enough to make it ethical? Are there other aspects to take into concideration? Or is ethical cryptos possible?

In particular Im looking into Mobilecoin which Signal has integrated into their app.

This community is about green and not capitalism, consumerism, monopolies etc pp. I did explained the major issue

Yes, you were talking about it in broader terms (and are continuing in your post to talk about it). So you can hardly criticize me for also taking a bigger picture view without strawmanning.

there is no one who actually tried to workaround this, because the system is considerable new...

There are literally hundreds of cryptocurrency projects, many claiming to solve the issues other cryptos have

Yeah, claims. Give me 5 bucks and I also claim I found aliens.

Also getting rid of everything, in the name of broader terms is not how society works. Thankfully I might add.
