A thought — instead of doing worthless math, couldn’t it be something useful like protein folding? Remember Folding@Home? Or cancer research or something?
I mean I know it’s probably too late, proof of stake bring replaced by that other thing (or was it the other way around?), and maybe the useless math was something that had to do with calculating the blockchain or whatever; I just don’t understand why someone couldn’t have come up with a way to make it have actual value.
Or maybe they did and I just don’t know about it, honestly couldn’t be bothered to jump on the bandwagon.
There have been attempts at making useful things with the calculations, but none of them have really taken off.  It’s a speculator’s market through and through.
Shame the speculators can’t vote for something more useful with their money 😓 You’d think they’d have a moral interest in balancing the scales a bit, what with the money laundering pyramid scheme and all 😅 /s
