Isn't this whole stack very close to being a Windows Subsystem for Linux?
If you are referring to PoS (both stake and space), they make fundamentally different tradeoffs as opposed to PoW. It's intellectually dishonest to claim either is "more efficient".
>They spend huge amounts of energy that are helping destroy the planet

This sounds extremely ignorant, Bitcoin essentially has accomplished a _trustless_ transfer of value, globally and at very low costs (even considering the extraordinary fees right now). This is just the cost of that...

>If someone steals your fiat USD

>Cryptocurrency has no such backing.
