UseCripto (nprofile…plug) Rewriting the ledger costs real money because mining costs real energy. Take the energy away and anyone with enough hardware can reorder history. I care more about where the power comes from. Miners chase the cheapest electricity on earth, and the cheapest is usually stranded or curtailed, power that had no buyer and was going to be spilled anyway. A miner can also shut off in seconds when the grid wants it back, and very few industrial loads can do that.
