.SBF_FTX believes that Bitcoin will not be used as a means of payment
on Bitcoin during his recent interview with the Financial Times, claiming that the world's first and largest cryptocurrency has"no future" as a means of payment due to a lack of scaling and significant power consumption.
Bankman-Fried believes that Bitcoin will serve as a store of value in the future, competing with gold. The second richest cryptocurrency mogul touted proof-of-stake blockchains as a better alternative to Bitcoin as far as payments are concerned. Earlier this year, Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen joined forces with Greenpeace and other organizations to promote Bitcoin's highly unlikely switch to the more efficient consensus mechanism.
The Bitcoin mining industry has long been the nemesis of environmental activists. After the recent bull run, its energy needs have already eclipsed such major countries as Sweden due to growing hashrate and mining difficulty.Earlier this year, the European Union attempted to impose a de facto ban on Bitcoin mining, but the initiative failed to gain enough votes in Parliament.
In January, Bank of America said that Solana, which prioritizes high scalability over decentralization, may end up becoming a Visa-like giant within the cryptocurrency sector due to its ability to process huge volumes of transactions at a relatively low cost.
