Answer one question; numb nuts! Why aren't WOW accounts used as a currency? Doesn't it fulfill both of your arguments. Energy expenditure and consensus? People buy and sell WOW accounts all the time. To get a max account in WOW requires a great deal of energy expenditure. I would trust crypto if any nation used it in a major transaction. You know, like when buying military equipment or major infrastructure builds occur. Since the US would never allow a country to pay for a helicopter in bitcoin, or China for a port build, it has no value. HURR DURR "Those who are more heavily invested get more returns". The pyramid scheme is strong in this retard. Cmon why are there hundreds of cryptocurrencies and only a few that hold any value? Wouldn't all of them, if mined hold the same?
