Did you hear about Chia Coin?
It is a hype green coin, which is now becoming a leader in the cryptocurrency mining market. Despite the hype, Chia Coin is still not as green as Crypton — the internal cryptocurrency of the Utopia ecosystem. The first has some drawbacks in technical terms. Although Crypton does not position itself as a green cryptocurrency for mining, it is a privacy coin. But the technical data suggests otherwise.
Funny to read these lines now. For some reason Chia was in the news a lot in spring (even non-crypto news pages) but now has disappeared completely. I just checked it's price development and it doesn't seem to be one of the big winners this year...
I read about Crypton and Chives (the latter is not even on CMC?)... so are those the hype coins for the next season?

As "green" as harddisk mining seems in terms of electricity consumption, it consumes resources just like GPU mining or similar and won't be a good long term solution as a "green" method
