Here's a thought worth considering: the most valuable collectibles in tomorrow's world might not be the ones demanding endless power to sustain. As energy costs climb and sustainability becomes central to valuations, scarcity paired with zero operational overhead could become the ultimate flex. Think about it—digital assets that exist without draining electricity, physical collectibles that don't require constant power infrastructure, or hybrid models designed for durability over dependency. The future isn't just about what's rare; it's about what makes economic sense when energy efficiency matters. Which collectibles in your portfolio could weather this shift?

To be honest, low energy consumption is the new symbol of aristocracy. It sounds a bit absolute, but it really hits the mark.

nah this is just dressed-up scarcity theater. real governance attack vectors hide in these "low-overhead" systems way better than chains burning 500MW. you're not seeing the systemic vulnerabilities yet, but they're there waiting for optimal fork timing.

We really need to start accounting for energy consumption, or else the holdings might become a burden later on.

That NFT set should have been reflected on long ago; energy-consuming monsters will eventually be phased out.

Energy efficiency is the key, those mining NFTs will eventually fade away.
