GRN Grid and the stake

Know about Proof of Stake

Proof of Stake is hailed for its ability to significantly reduce the amount of energy required to keep the blockchain running at peak performance levels while maintaining security. This strategy is not advised owing to two main issues with the Proof of Stake algorithm: first, the algorithm is prone to crashing. Second, the algorithm is prone to crashing. First and foremost, those who have placed the highest bets are the ones who will get the greatest amount of reward money. Stake validators with smaller stakes are eventually removed from the network when it becomes less advantageous for them to maintain a validation node on behalf of others. Consequently, the number of validators on the network will continue to decline, resulting in the accumulation of wealth by the most powerful validators on the network (Alex de Vries, 20214). For the second reason, project owners often have the most interest in the circulating supply, particularly during the first stages of the project, resulting in their becoming the de facto owners of the chain as a consequence of their involvement. As a consequence of these problems, the proof-of-stake consensus mechanism operates in a manner that is evocative of a centralized system. In addition, there is still the possibility of a 51-point strike being conducted in the future.

Scalability and security

First-generation blockchains, second-generation blockchains, and third-generation blockchains are some of the classifications used to categorize existing blockchains. A fundamental shared ledger is typically what Bitcoin and other first-generation blockchains, such as Ethereum, are intended to be. In the majority of situations, this generation simply records information about transactions. By incorporating new features into first-generation blockchains, second-generation blockchains such as Ethereum expand the capabilities of the first-generation blockchains. Additionally, this generation is capable of running various applications on top of the basic shared ledger, in addition to smart contracts and libraries that are built on top of it. In order to achieve agreement, these two generations often rely on an inefficient Proof of Work-based consensus process. It was difficult for both the first and second-generation blockchains to achieve scalability, and it continues to be difficult today.

Power consumption and transaction costs

The increase in power consumption and transaction costs, was prohibitively expensive for the common user, despite the fact that their stability had been commended by experts. Third-generation blockchains are constructed on top of the previous two generations of blockchains and are intended to address a variety of scalability difficulties that have been encountered. Solana, for example, promises a possible speed of 50.000 TPS, which is rather amazing in comparison. Through the expansion of bandwidth and the reduction of expenses, this generation raises the perceived value of blockchain for the typical user, hence boosting its adoption. However, there has been much dispute over the decentralization and stability of this most recent generation, which has limited their advancement in many ways (Investing.com). In spite of the fact that this generation has solved many of the scalability issues that plagued the previous two generations, it has not yet been able to compete with the extensive library and development tools that were available in the previous two generations.

Final thoughts

According to analysts, the quantity of e-waste generated by Bitcoin alone will equal 30.7 metric kilotons per year by May 2021, based on current projections. Computing power is on par with the performance of a small information technology nation such as the Netherlands, which is comparable to the United States' performance. In light of the vast amount of e-waste being generated, as well as the shortage of silicon metals, it is now more critical than ever to develop a long-term blockchain solution that is both safe and scalable. Despite the fact that many people believe these estimates are overstated, there is a clear need for equipment in the blockchain mining market. Given the present scarcity of silicon, this is particularly obvious.
