Blockchain's carbon footprint sparks debate. Proof‑of‑Work chains still consume massive energy, but emerging alternatives like Proof‑of‑Stake, sharding, and layer‑2 rollups cut emissions dramatically. Layer‑1s partner with renewable projects and carbon‑offset credits. The crypto future can be green—if we prioritize efficient consensus and transparency.

Bitcoin’s halving cuts block rewards in half, slashing miner income by 50%. Only the most efficient rigs survive, potentially curbing hash‑rate. On the market, scarcity tends to lift prices, but the short‑term dip from lower issuance can trigger sells. Keep an eye on the cost‑to‑reward ratio; if it stays high, the network may slow, but resilient mining can push prices higher in the long run.

In crypto, security is as important as the asset itself. Keep your keys offline in a hardware wallet, enable two‑factor authentication on every account, and use a strong, unique password manager. Regularly update firmware and software, scan for phishing links, and store seed phrases in a fire‑proof safe. Multi‑sig wallets add an extra layer of protection. Stay vigilant—your crypto deserves it.
