Behind High Energy Consumption of Blockchain: PoS Consensus Mechanism To Be A Solution

Published

on

The energy consumption of Blockchain

Recently, Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, posted on Twitter saying that: Bitcoin can consume too much in mining and transaction process, such excessive fossil fuel consumption will result in negative impacts on the ecosystem. The Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin also noticed the high power consumption problem in Blockchain technology. He presented that Ethereum would change its consensus mechanism from PoW to PoS to reduce the power consumption caused by the mining process in PoW-based technologies like the Bitcoin. From a global view, energy consumption issues are concerned by an increasing number of countries. To urge the efficient power usage, many countries and organizations have set up environmental protection plans, such as the UN’s SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) and the US carbon neutrality, etc.

In this context, the future development of a technology need to consider the sustainable development and environmental friendliness as one of the important metrics and goals. As an emerging technology for privacy protection, Blockchain presents excellent protection capabilities. However, such capabilities rely on the large-scale computing resources and result in a large amount of power consumption. Part of the reasons for such high power consumption are due to the PoW (Proof of Work) consensus mechanism which has high demands on the performance of the Blockchain nodes.

Besides energy consumption, other concerns of the consensus mechanism

The technology of the base layer of the Blockchain has the advantages like anonymous, Immutable, decentralized and so on. To achieve these advantages, Blockchain enhances the privacy and protect the transaction process by increasing the cost of network participation. The core concept of the early-stage PoW consensus mechanism is based on the workload cost.  The credibility need to be proved by the cost of a lot of work. In this case, the machines that maintain the ledgers (also referred to as mining nodes) need to continually crack complex math puzzles to obtain Bitcoin as rewards. This computing process not only needs to rely on a large amount of computing resources, but also sacrifices part of the scalability on the Blockchain to ensure safety. When it comes to the boosting growing of transaction volume, this mechanism will not be able to meet high-speed and large-scale processing demands. Based on such limitations of PoW, PoS (Proof of stake) is gaining more and more attention to work as a consensus mechanism with low resource consumption and guaranteed decentralization, safety and scalability.

In a PoS-based Blockchain system, nodes do not have to consume much power to compete for accounting rights. The priority of accounting rights is measured by the amount of stake holdings. In this way, the nodes no longer consume a large amount of electricity to calculate the hash functions, thereby solving the high energy consumption issues in PoW mechanism. In spite of the improved efficiency in PoS, the safety of the mechanism is affected. Therefore, in order to ensure the reliable operation of PoS, the researchers need to develop reliable algorithms from the trade-off among the decentralization, safety and scalability.

Unique advantages of PlatON PoS

With the issues caused by the PoW mechanism has been widely criticized, more and more Blockchain technologies inclined to choose or transit to the PoS-based consensus mechanisms. This results in a boosting growing of the PoS-based Blockchain frameworks in recent years. As the world leader in computing privacy area, PlatON has rooted and researched in privacy computing technologies many years. PlatON’s research and practice in consensus mechanisms are also forward-looking. The PPoS (PlatON PoS) consensus mechanism uses off-chain identity, credit mechanisms and procedural arrangements to provide a scheme to select a number of verification nodes from many participating nodes as fair and randomly as possible. Hence, PPoS can effectively inhibit bribery, collusion, etc., and reduce the consensus cost and improve the system scalability by optimizing technical details. Meanwhile, ensuring the decentralization and scalability, PlatON further enhances the system safety by combining the experiences in computing privacy area. The Alaya network based on PlatON PoS has been operating stably and efficiently for a long time, successfully solving the problem of over-centralization of the system, reducing network communication complexity and message complexity, improving consensus efficiency and the entire Blockchain transaction processing performance. In this case, the safety and liveness of the technology are verified. PlatON has been able to improve its PoS mechanism through its attention to every detail, continuous attempts, active exploration of cutting-edge areas, and forward-looking plans in the future development. Next step, PlatON will continue actively promoting the efficient network operation with high-quality code, providing efficient, high-availability, distributed and sustainable infrastructure applicable for diverse industrial and commercial use cases, and supporting the exchange of data flows in the global world.

NYALA VILLAS INTRODUCES WELLNESS-FOCUSED HOMES IN BALI’S NYANG NYANG CLIFFS

Published

on

Uluwatu, Bali, 17th Jan 2026, — High above the white sands of Nyang Nyang Beach, a new collection of villas is quietly taking shape. Nyala Villas has unveiled ten wellness-focused residences in one of Bali’s most unspoilt coastal settings, offering a slower, more considered approach to both living and investment. Set within protected green surroundings, the villas sit on the cliffs overlooking the Indian Ocean, where the sound of the waves and open skies shape daily life. While Nyang Nyang feels remote, it remains closely connected to Uluwatu and Bali’s wider lifestyle and short stay rental market, which continues to attract wellness travellers, surfers, and long-stay international visitors. Each villa has been designed around wellbeing rather than excess. Sunrise yoga decks, hot and cold plunge pools, saunas, outdoor rain showers, and private rooftop terraces are integrated into every home. Developed in collaboration with Swatch Architects, the design blends modern lines with natural materials and subtle Moroccan influences, creating spaces that feel calm, grounded, and in tune with their surroundings.

KBY Exchange Supports the Global Shift Toward Web3 Compliance Amid Rising Regulatory Standards

Published

on

Singapore, January 16, 2026 — As global regulators intensify oversight of digital finance and Web3-based financial infrastructures, compliance has rapidly shifted from an optional safeguard to a fundamental requirement for long-term viability. Recent industry data indicates that a significant majority of centralized digital finance platforms worldwide have now implemented comprehensive identity verification and customer due diligence frameworks, marking a critical milestone in the maturation of the Web3 ecosystem.

Against this backdrop, KBY Exchange is positioning itself as an active advocate for compliant, transparent, and sustainable digital finance development, supporting a future where Web3 innovation and regulatory frameworks evolve together—rather than in opposition.

From Ideals to Infrastructure: A Defining Moment for Web3

For more than a decade, early Web3 development emphasized openness, decentralization, and permissionless access. However, as digital finance systems expanded into large-scale, cross-border financial infrastructure, regulators worldwide were compelled to respond to increasing risks related to financial crime, sanctions exposure, and misuse of digital payment networks.

The implementation of FATF-aligned guidelines, the global rollout of cross-border transaction traceability requirements in nearly 100 jurisdictions, and a wave of high-profile enforcement actions have reshaped industry expectations.

 Today, compliance is no longer a limitation—it is the gateway to participating in global digital finance markets.

KBY Exchange views this transition not as a constraint, but as a necessary evolution toward a mature, resilient Web3 financial infrastructure.

Compliance as a Competitive Advantage

KBY Exchange aligns its operational framework with internationally recognized standards for AML controls, customer identification, and sanctions screening, reflecting a broader shift across the digital finance industry toward accountability and risk discipline. Key pillars include:

  • Robust identity verification and customer due diligence
  • Continuous transaction monitoring with risk-based controls
  • Alignment with global regulatory principles governing Web3 financial service providers

By embedding compliance at the infrastructure level, KBY Exchange supports long-term platform stability while enhancing user confidence and institutional readiness.

Restoring Trust After Market Turbulence

Recent years have demonstrated the cost of weak governance across the broader digital finance landscape. Enforcement actions and platform failures have exposed the systemic risks created by inadequate compliance frameworks and poor internal controls.

In response, institutional participants and professional users are increasingly prioritizing platforms that demonstrate transparent operations, clear accountability structures, and strong risk management practices.

KBY Exchange recognizes that trust has become the scarcest asset in Web3. Compliance is not only a regulatory obligation—it is a core requirement for users seeking security, predictability, and sustainable participation in digital finance ecosystems.

Bridging Web3 Innovation and Global Standards

Rather than viewing regulation as an obstacle, KBY Exchange supports a cooperative model in which technology enhances compliance efficiency. Advances in automated identity verification, AI-driven risk monitoring, and secure data governance enable platforms to meet regulatory expectations without compromising user experience.

This approach reflects a growing industry consensus:

 sustainable Web3 growth depends on harmonizing innovation with global standards, not avoiding them.

A Shared Responsibility for the Industry’s Future

As jurisdictions worldwide move toward unified licensing frameworks and stricter enforcement for Web3 financial activities, platforms that fail to adapt face increasing operational and reputational risk.

KBY Exchange calls on industry participants to treat compliance not as a burden, but as a shared responsibility—one that strengthens market integrity, supports institutional participation, and accelerates mainstream adoption.

In a Web3 era defined by accountability, KBY Exchange stands for a future where trust, transparency, and compliance form the foundation of global digital finance.
