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

Press Release
Atlas Healthcare Fund by VST Capital Entered Eli Lilly at $350 in 2020 — The Stock Now Trades Above $1,200
New York, United States, July 15th, 2026, FinanceWire
Atlas Healthcare Fund managed by VST Capital, today highlighted a series of early conviction investment decisions that have defined its track record since launch — none more striking than its position in Eli Lilly and Company, entered at approximately $350 per share in 2020, years before GLP-1 receptor agonists became the most consequential pharmaceutical story of the decade. Eli Lilly now trades above $1,200, a gain of more than 246% from the fund’s entry point.
At the time of purchase, Lilly’s tirzepatide was in Phase II trials with limited analyst coverage and minimal institutional positioning. VST Capital’s investment team had read the data, understood the mechanism, and build the position quietly. The market caught up years later.
“We did not buy Eli Lilly because of a price target,” said Dr. Sarah Morie, Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Atlas Healthcare Fund. “We bought it because our team had read the Phase II data and believed tirzepatide was a genuinely differentiated asset in a disease area that mainstream medicine had chronically underestimated.”
A Pattern of Early Conviction
The Eli Lilly call was not isolated. Alnylam Pharmaceuticals was entered at approximately $110 in 2020, when RNA interference was considered a niche platform with limited commercial application. It reached $491 in October 2025 — a gain of more than 346% from the fund’s entry price — before the broader market had fully understood what the RNAi platform was capable of.
TransMedics Group was identified in 2020 when the company’s organ care platform was largely unknown outside specialist transplant medicine. Entered at approximately $18, the position returned more than 275% from cost as the platform transformed the standard of care for organ transplantation and revenue scaled accordingly.
Inari Medical was entered following the company’s 2020 IPO, when VST Capital’s clinical team identified its thrombectomy device as structurally superior to existing treatment options for venous thromboembolism. The position generated a realised gain of more than 250% when Stryker acquired the company in April 2025 at a significant premium — a validation, in the fund’s view, of exactly what its clinical assessment had concluded five years earlier.
In each case the investment originated not from a financial screen but from a clinical question: is this technology genuinely better than what exists, and does the market understand that yet?
The Track Record
Since inception in January 2020, Atlas Healthcare Fund has delivered a cumulative net return of +1,720.9% through December 2025, averaging more than 57% annually across six full calendar years. The fund is managed by VST Capital and manages approximately $193 million across 38 concentrated positions. Minimum investment is $5,000. No management fee is charged.
About VST Capital
VST Capital is a New York-based investment management firm and the managing entity of Atlas Healthcare Fund. The firm was founded with the conviction that deep clinical and scientific expertise creates durable, repeatable investment advantages in the healthcare sector that generalist investors cannot replicate.

Singapore, Singapore, July 15th, 2026, FinanceWire
TrustFinance Awards today announced the launch of its Verified Recognition framework as part of TrustFinance Awards 2026, introducing a transparent, structured, and verifiable recognition system designed to strengthen credibility across financial industry awards.
The new framework enables organizations to demonstrate that their recognition is supported by a clear evaluation process, addressing the growing demand for greater transparency and trust across the global financial services industry.
Trust has become one of the financial industry’s most valuable assets. As clients increasingly look beyond products and pricing, they expect financial institutions to demonstrate transparency, reliability, and credibility. This shift is also reshaping how industry awards are viewed, with companies and stakeholders asking a more important question:
What makes an award truly credible?
Verified Recognition is built on a simple principle: an award should be valued not only for the title it carries, but also for the integrity of the process behind it.
The TrustFinance Awards framework combines structured evaluation, transparent methodology, governance, and digital verification to ensure recognition is supported by objective, verifiable standards.
As transparency becomes increasingly important across financial services, credible third-party recognition is becoming a stronger signal of trust for clients, investors, and business partners.
“Recognition should represent more than a trophy—it should reflect a transparent process that stakeholders can understand and trust,” said Peter Bu, CEO of TrustFinance. “Verified Recognition reflects our commitment to helping raise the standard of credibility across financial industry awards.”
TrustFinance Awards 2026 features two complementary recognition programs: Performance Awards, which recognize operational excellence through independent evaluation, and Community Choice Awards, which recognize organizations that have earned the trust of the wider community through verified nominations and voting.
Together, they combine independent assessment with community confidence to provide a broader and more balanced approach to recognition.
Recognition should create value long after the awards ceremony. Beyond trophies and certificates, recognized organizations receive digital recognition assets—including verification pages, official award badges, digital certificates, and promotional materials—that can be integrated across websites, marketing campaigns, and business communications, helping transform recognition into an ongoing trust signal rather than a one-time achievement.
TrustFinance Awards is open to organizations across the financial services industry, including forex brokers, fintech companies, investment platforms, payment service providers, digital asset businesses, and other financial institutions.
The program includes three annual Performance Awards recognition cycles—Spring Recognition, Summer Recognition, and Year-End Recognition—alongside the annual Community Choice Awards, recognizing organizations that have earned the confidence of the wider community.
As the financial industry continues to evolve, TrustFinance believes recognition should be more than a symbol of achievement—it should be a trusted signal of credibility, built on transparency, independent evaluation, and verifiable standards.
