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.

Mitchell Zong Weighs in on Why Sustainable Marketing Beats Growth at Any Cost

Published

on

  • From campaign planning to performance measurement, Zong discusses the long-term risks of reactive marketing and the value of disciplined execution.

Anchorage, Alaska, 13th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Marketing has entered an era defined by urgency. Platforms evolve quickly, trends shift overnight, and organizations are often encouraged to pursue growth as aggressively as possible. According to Mitchell Zong, a marketing expert based in Anchorage, Alaska, this pressure to scale fast has created a culture of reactivity that undermines long-term success. He argues that sustainable marketing, built on clarity, structure, and measured decision making, consistently outperforms growth strategies driven purely by speed.

Mitchell Zong believes that the conversation around growth has become too narrow. Metrics such as reach, impressions, and short-term conversion spikes often dominate planning discussions, while deeper indicators of brand health receive far less attention. Over time, this imbalance can lead to inconsistent messaging, exhausted teams, and diminishing returns. Sustainable marketing, he explains, reframes growth as an outcome rather than a goal in itself.

Rethinking the Obsession with Speed

Many organizations equate rapid expansion with success, but Mitchell Zong cautions that speed without direction creates fragility. When campaigns are launched primarily to keep pace with competitors or capitalize on fleeting trends, strategy becomes secondary. Teams are pushed to execute before ideas are fully tested or aligned with broader objectives.

This approach may produce temporary gains, but it often weakens brand coherence. Audiences encounter inconsistent messages, shifting priorities, and unclear value propositions. Mitchell Zong notes that when trust erodes, even strong short-term metrics fail to translate into durable growth. Sustainable marketing emphasizes pacing, allowing brands to evolve deliberately while maintaining credibility.

The Hidden Costs of Reactive Marketing

Reactive marketing tends to surface during periods of uncertainty. Economic shifts, algorithm changes, or new competitors can prompt organizations to overhaul plans quickly. While adaptation is necessary, Mitchell Zong distinguishes between thoughtful adjustment and constant reaction. The latter, he explains, introduces inefficiencies that compound over time.

Campaigns built in reaction mode often lack proper measurement frameworks. Without clear baselines or defined success criteria, teams struggle to learn from results. Budgets are redirected frequently, messaging becomes fragmented, and institutional knowledge is lost. Mitchell Zong argues that sustainable marketing reduces these risks by prioritizing repeatable systems and clear documentation.

Building Strategy Before Scaling

One of Mitchell Zong’s central positions is that strategy must be established before growth is pursued aggressively. Sustainable marketing begins with understanding the audience, the competitive landscape, and the organization’s unique strengths. From this foundation, campaigns are designed to reinforce a consistent narrative across channels.

Rather than chasing every new platform or format, Mitchell Zong advises organizations to evaluate opportunities through the lens of relevance and capacity. Growth that outpaces infrastructure often leads to burnout and declining quality. A disciplined strategy ensures that expansion occurs only when systems, resources, and messaging are ready to support it.

The Role of Measurement in Long-Term Success

Performance measurement plays a critical role in sustainable marketing, but Mitchell Zong emphasizes that not all metrics carry equal weight. Short-term indicators are useful, yet they should be interpreted within a broader context. Sustainable strategies track patterns over time, focusing on indicators such as audience retention, engagement quality, and conversion stability.

Mitchell Zong encourages teams to resist the urge to pivot based on isolated data points. Sustainable marketing relies on trend analysis and controlled experimentation, allowing insights to emerge gradually. This approach supports informed decision making and reduces the likelihood of overcorrecting based on incomplete information.

Consistency as a Competitive Advantage

In crowded markets, consistency often becomes a differentiator. Mitchell Zong notes that brands willing to commit to a clear message over time are more likely to earn recognition and trust. While reactive marketing frequently introduces abrupt shifts in tone or positioning, sustainable marketing reinforces familiarity.

This consistency extends beyond external messaging. Internally, teams benefit from stable processes and defined priorities. Mitchell Zong explains that when employees understand long-term objectives, they can execute more confidently and creatively. Sustainable marketing creates alignment, enabling teams to focus on improvement rather than constant reinvention.

Balancing Innovation with Discipline

Sustainable marketing does not reject innovation, but it frames experimentation within a disciplined structure. Mitchell Zong advocates for intentional testing rather than impulsive adoption. New ideas are evaluated through pilot programs, measured carefully, and scaled only when they demonstrate alignment with strategic goals.

This balance allows organizations to remain relevant without compromising stability. Mitchell Zong believes that innovation becomes more effective when it builds on an established foundation. Sustainable marketing provides that foundation, ensuring that creative risks are taken thoughtfully rather than out of urgency.

Why Sustainable Marketing Protects Brand Equity

Brand equity is built gradually, yet it can be damaged quickly. Mitchell Zong points out that aggressive growth tactics often overlook long-term brand perception. Excessive promotions, inconsistent messaging, or overextended promises may drive short-term results while eroding trust.

Sustainable marketing prioritizes credibility. By setting realistic expectations and delivering consistent value, organizations strengthen their relationship with audiences. Mitchell Zong argues that this trust becomes a stabilizing force during market disruptions, allowing brands to weather challenges more effectively than those dependent on constant acceleration.

A Long-Term View on Growth

Mitchell Zong’s perspective ultimately reframes growth as a by-product of discipline. Sustainable marketing, he explains, requires patience and commitment, qualities that are increasingly rare in fast-moving environments. Yet these qualities produce resilience.

By investing in clear strategy, thoughtful measurement, and consistent execution, organizations position themselves for growth that endures. Mitchell Zong maintains that sustainable marketing is not slower marketing; it is smarter marketing. In an era where speed is often mistaken for progress, his viewpoint offers a reminder that longevity remains the most reliable indicator of success.
