gollark: There is proof of stake, which replaces the mining with "staking", where you just put up some coins for a bit and randomly get assigned more based on that. But this is also bad.
gollark: If you benefit from more computation *at all*, someone will just deploy 29383728929 computers doing the more efficient thing.
gollark: It is deliberately wasteful. It can't be useful work or something something side markets (I forgot).
gollark: Yes, but then you couldn't use mining to allocate new coins and make evilness with new blocks expensive.
