Best ways to save our planet using new discovered technological advancement

There are many ways that new technological advancements can be used to help save the planet. Some of the most promising include: Renewable energy: One of the biggest contributors to climate change is the burning of fossil fuels for energy. New technologies such as solar panels, wind turbines, and geothermal power plants are becoming increasingly efficient and cost-effective, making it possible for more and more of our energy to come from renewable sources. Electric vehicles: Electric vehicles (EVs) produce zero emissions and are becoming more affordable, making them a viable alternative to gas-powered cars. With the development of new battery technologies, EVs are becoming increasingly efficient and have a longer range. Carbon capture: Carbon capture is a technology that captures carbon di...

Is post-Merge Ethereum PoS a threat to Bitcoin’s dominance?

While Ethereum (ETH) fans are enthusiastic about the successful Merge, Swan Bitcoin CEO Cory Klippsten believes the upgrade will lead Ethereum into a “slow slide to irrelevance and eventual death.”  [embedded content] According to Klippsten, the Ethereum community picked the wrong moment for detaching the protocol from its reliance on energy. As many parts of the world are experiencing severe energy shortages, he believed the environmental narrative is taking the back seat. In an exclusive interview with Cointelegraph, Klippsten said “I think the world is just waking up to reality and Ethereum just went way off into Fantasyland at the exact wrong time.” “It is just really bad timing to roll out that narrative. It just looks stupid.” According to some predictions, institutional capital...

Norwegian town wants ‘noisy’ Bitcoin miners out, experts respond

There’s a new Bitcoin (BTC) energy FUD in town: noise. In Sortland, a Norwegian municipality, locals are waging war on Bitcoin miners to thwart further BTC mining developments. Their latest protest against proof-of-work (PoW) mining is that it’s loud.  It’s not enough that Bitcoin miners in Sortland use 100% renewable energy sources, create jobs and even use waste heat from the PoW process to dry out timber and seaweed for local businesses; they must do so quietly. Sortland (red) in the extremes of Norway. Source: Google Kjetil Hove Pettersen, CEO at local KryptoVault, explained that it could be another case of media spin aiming at Bitcoin. He explained the situation to Cointelegraph: “It is usually the negative voices that get the most media attention; this does not refle...

Will the Bitcoin mining industry collapse? Analysts explain why crisis is really opportunity

Bitcoin mining involves a delicate balance between multiple moving parts. Miners already have to face capital and operational costs, unexpected repairs, product shipping delays and unexpected regulation that can vary from country to country — and in the case of the United States, from state to state. On top of that, they also had to contend with Bitcoin’s precipitous drop from $69,000 to $17,600.  Despite BTC price being 65% down from its all-time high, the general consensus among miners is to keep calm and carry on by just stacking sats, but that doesn’t mean the market has reached a bottom just yet. In an exclusive Bitcoin miners panel hosted by Cointelegraph, Luxor CEO Nick Hansen said, “There’s going to definitely be a capital crunch in publicly listed companies or at least ...

How blockchain can address Austria’s energy crisis

Climate change has become one of the biggest global challenges for humanity. At the same time, the dependence on hydrocarbon energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas is still strong. Supply lines around these energy sources are further vulnerable to geopolitical tensions. Due to the current sanctions against Russia, experts now expect rising electricity prices and negative effects on the energy market in Europe. The Austrian government understands the urgent need for the energy transition and has set the ambitious goal of being climate neutral by 2040. Alternative solutions to fossil energy have been slow to emerge and, for the most part, are not yet efficient enough on a large scale. But there are promising approaches — especially in the form of decentralized renewable energies or...

Why the Data Centre Industry Needs to Embrace Renewable Energy

Sourced from Shutterstock While investment in digital infrastructure is certainly a win for economic growth in South Africa and Africa as a whole, as is the investment in new data centres, this vital infrastructure needs substantial amounts of energy to function. In fact, it is estimated that data centres could consume a fifth of global electricity by 2025 and create 14% of carbon emissions by 2040. Data centres play a crucial role in today’s ever-accelerating Information Age – as the backbone of the digital economy and the very foundation of the world wide web, they are key to creating a platform for growth and encouraging investment in Africa. There have been several factors driving the demand for data centre infrastructure in South Africa and across the continent, includi...
