Proof of Steak
This proposes a foundational solution for blockchain sustainability, but appears incremental or speculative due to vague claims and lack of concrete numbers.
The paper tackles the problem of achieving a fully-circular economy using blockchain technology by introducing Proof-of-Steak (PoS) as a net-zero block generation technique, with results including tamper-evident steak haché and redirection of extracted gold and dissipated heat into a furnace.
We introduce Proof-of-Steak (PoS) as a fundamental net-zero block generation technique, often accompanied by Non-Frangipane Tokens. Genesis cut is gradually heated and minted (using the appropriate sauce), enabling the miners to redirect the extracted gold and the dissipated heat into the furnace, hence enabling the first fully-circular economy ever built using blockchain technology, utilising tamper-evident steak haché. In this paper we present the basic ingredients for building Proof-of-Steak, assessing its global impact, and opportunities to save the world and beyond!
