Greener cryptocurrencies less volatile as they react less to energy price movements, says researcher – Phys.org
A recent study on cryptocurrencies reveals unsurprising results â Greener cryptocurrencies respond less dramatically to fluctuations in energy prices as compared with their more resource-demanding counterparts.
This trend underscores the fact that while traditional cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which are notorious for their energy-intensive mining processes, show conspicuous irregularities in value following movements in energy prices, greener alternatives exhibit much less volatility. The findings also hint a shift towards eco-friendlier options among investors and market players alike.
Insights from the study could facilitate the implementation of policies and practices committed to curbing the environmental impacts of cryptocurrencies. Moreover, they might upturn the common notion associating cryptocurrencies with high energy consumption, by highlighting their greener counterparts that offer equally promising, if not better, investment returns.
