Didn't etherum cut power consumption by 99.95% by switching to Proof of Stake? So what are you securing exactly with all that?

Kinda crazy how people stick to Bitcoin but preach decentralisation. You can't be half way noble.

Yeah, and by doing so they got rid of 99.99% of their security and censorship resistance. PoS is Fiat 2.0. It's not worth mentioning in the same breath as Bitcoin, not that it ever was.
