The main currency in crypto is NOT the tokens/coins you get. It is the CPU cycles. So why the hell are we not putting those to good use? it´s freaking beyond me. Imagine if F@H (or something like it) had the bitcoin network´s power, we could potentially help solve cancer.
Maybe someone can help shed some light on this topic if there is something I´ve missed!

Some would argue that securing transactions that transfer value without trust is a good use
However, the true answer is always greed.
The second part of that is the real hitch for mining. You must throw tons of CPU to "mine" the hash but it's a single evaluation to verify it for the proof.
(And I make that statement after having made a few thousand bucks by mining BTC at 5$ per coin.)
I don't believe in the hype of altcoins, but I do see the problems Bitcoin solves.
It is all fun and games until you realise this is NOT a metaphor and that shitcoin does indeed consume as much energy as a country.
Ah yes ... yes the journey. It was such a good shutdown notice until that point. Just leave it off. No one cares about your journey.
