V tem ozadju si lahko ogledamo nekaj altcoinov (Ether, ADA, XLM) in njihovo sposobnost preživetja.

Bitcoin Crash in izjave Elona Muska

Elon Musk’s statement came as an ugly surprise to many cryptocurrency users, given that earlier in March, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) fueled investments in Bitcoin by releasing a statement that the company would accept payments in BTC. Several cryptocurrency investors accused Musk of having conducted an elaborate, yet common scheme of a “pump and dump”, i.e. causing a steep increase in value of a stock/currency and selling it off while booking profits. Others pointed out that other Fiat currencies in use were still more damaging to the environment, such as the USD. A poročilo by crypto investment firm Galaxy Digital also revealed that energy consumption in mining Bitcoin pales in comparison to traditional bančni sistemi.

Medtem Tesla Inc. še naprej drži skoraj 40,000 delnic BTC, z možnostjo, da v prihodnosti posluje z BTC, ko bo rudarstvo bolj trajnostno.

Alternative Bitcoin

Kot je bilo pričakovano, so vlagatelji kriptovalut in družbeni mediji ponoreli, ko so poskušali razvozlati Muskove tweetove in najti tudi alternative BTC, ki bi jih Tesla, Inc. lahko sprejela za plačilne namene.

Ethereum (Eter) is a favorite for many cryptocurrency investors as it consumes on average 60KWh of energy per transaction, as compared to 707KWh used to mine Bitcoin. Though, both cryptocurrencies are based on the same Proof-of-Work (PoW) network. Ethereum seeks to remedy this excessive poraba z ETH 2.0, which shall utilize Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network instead, which is almost 98% more energy-saving compared to the PoW network.

Tesla may choose to accept other energy-efficient cryptocurrencies operating on the PoS network, including Cardano, TRON, Solana or EOS. Cryptocurrencies such as XRP in XLM also utilize bare minimum energy consumption, almost .0080 KWh per transaction. Algorand also utilizes a pure Proof-of-Stake network to function.

Many are inclined to believe Tesla will accept Dogecoin as its preferred cryptocurrency, not only because of Musk’s apparent affinity to it but also lower rates of energy consumption – .12KWh per transaction.

This green cryptocurrency created by BitTorrent founder, Bram Cohen, Chia kovanec utilizes a unique Proof-of-Space-and-Time network; interestingly, it is ‘farmed’ and not ‘mined’.

Naprej: Ali se bo Elon Musk vrnil v Bitcoin?

Catherine Wood, CEO of Ark Management, napoveduje that “Elon will come back and be part of [the Bitcoin] ecosystem”. She believes that the market has entered a “capitulation” phase, acknowledging what many cryptocurrency investors are seeing as a “really great time to buy”. MicroStrategy tweeted da je kupil dip in kupil 229 BTC v vrednosti 10 milijonov USD v gotovini po povprečni ceni 43,600 USD na BTC.

Treba je še ugotoviti, kako dolgo se bo trg odzval na novice, preden bodo spet začele naraščati.
