The importance of sustainability: Why eco-friendly blockchains are the future

Published

on

As more and more decentralized applications (DApps), such as GameFi, DeFi, NFTs, and more, are being developed, heated discussions about the environmental impact of blockchain and cryptocurrency have reignited once more. Especially after China’s crackdown on cryptocurrency mining activities, public debates about blockchain and crypto-related energy consumption rates have reached a climax.

Proof of Work’s environmental impact

Since the birth of Bitcoin, the Proof of Work (PoW) consensus mechanism has always been fundamental to the security of blockchain networks. This consensus is reached through computing power, commonly referred to as hash rate.

Over time as blockchain technology is being adopted by the world, the energy consumption rate of the entire blockchain network has skyrocketed, leading to significant environmental costs. The University of Cambridge estimates that Bitcoin mining consumes about 130 TWh per year, accounting for about 0.1% of the world’s total primary energy consumption.

As far as DApp development is concerned, energy consumption-related environmental issues are mostly derived from Ethereum mining, since Ethereum is a PoW blockchain with the largest ecosystem full of projects in varying sizes. With the recent London hard fork, the transition to Ethereum 2.0-a complete Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain, will be completed as early as 2022. As a result, the current energy consumption per transaction on Ethereum is about 35 kWh, which is equivalent to the energy consumption of a single person in developing countries for 3 days.

The true cost of DApp transactions

While mass crypto adoption is happening around the world, DApps and their applicability will eventually catch up. New projects such as wealth management applications, lending platforms, decentralized exchanges (DEX), NFT-inspired metaverses, and more, that are gradually taking over social media and our lives are the ultimate proof. If you have been paying attention to what’s happening around you, the crypto community’s passion and loyalty towards decentralized, immutable technology are clearly reflected in the real world.

That is certainly good news for crypto enthusiasts, but for the environment, it’s an entirely different story. Take NFTs for example. Memo Atken, a digital artist and engineer, estimates that the true cost of an NFT is much higher than a typical energy consumption of a transaction on Ethereum (35 kWh). He believes that NFT-related transactions will cost much more because all NFTs have to be minted and exchanged multiple times on the blockchain.

He is certainly correct. In fact, an NFT’s creation and distribution do not only consist of a simple mint and sale process. There will be many subsequent transactions made by collectors and traders, which makes the average carbon footprint of each NFT close to 340kWh (an average of 211 kg of CO2), equivalent to a single person’s energy consumption in a developed country for more than a month.

Why eco-friendly blockchains are favored by developers

In early 2021, several public blockchains underwent considerable ecosystem expansion, such as ThunderCore, Solana, Polkadot, and Binance Smart Chain. These blockchains’ ecosystems are in full bloom, as decentralized projects like DAOs, Oracles, Token Bridges, DeFi protocols, NFT marketplaces, blockchain games, and more, are being deployed consistently. There are many reasons for the expansion of these networks, but one thing they all have in common is that none of them utilize a PoW consensus mechanism (meaning zero physical mining facilities are used). Instead, novel mechanisms, such as PoS, that allow on-chain staking and other models to replace PoW are applied.

Among them, the ThunderCore blockchain uses the state-of-the-art PoS consensus mechanism, PaLa, which not only solves the “scalability trilemma”, but also supports the chain’s entire ecosystem with cheap renewable energy. ThunderCore is an eco-friendly public blockchain, and its CO2 emissions, resulting from on-chain transactions, are reduced by more than 10,000x. For example, its block creation does not require the support of large amounts of energy resources like Bitcoin and Ethereum do. ThunderCore is also EVM compatible, which allows the rapid migration and deployment of Ethereum projects. With low gas fees (<$0.00001), sub-second confirmations, and 4,000+ TPS, ThunderCore has become a platform favored by developers from the world over.

moove.xyz Expands Across Nigeria, Kenya and Greater African Region To Power Stablecoin Payments

Published

on

Hong Kong S.A.R., 11th Jun 2026 – moove.xyz, the global Web3 fintech platform built for the permissionless and effortless movement of value, is expanding its reach across Africa to enable fast, low-fee cross-border stablecoin payments for the continent’s fastest-growing digital workforce. By allowing freelancers, creators, influencers, and professional service providers to get paid in stablecoins such as USDC and USDT across 30+ blockchains with no KYC, moove.xyz is delivering a Web3 payment gateway purpose-built for regions where traditional financial infrastructure remains costly, slow, and unreliable.

Across African markets — including Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, South Africa, Egypt, and Tanzania — volatile exchange rates, limited banking access, and expensive cross-border transfer fees continue to hold back some of the world’s most ambitious earners. A designer in Lagos, a developer in Nairobi, or a content creator in Accra often waits days for an international payment to clear, only to lose a painful share of it to FX spreads, correspondent-banking charges, and intermediaries. moove.xyz addresses these challenges with a unified, non-custodial wallet app that enables users to send crypto instantly and get paid globally in stablecoins, preserving value, avoiding local currency volatility, and accessing global markets with transparent, fast, and significantly lower-cost on-chain settlement — bypassing outdated banking rails entirely.

“Our mission at moove.xyz is to make global money movement effortless and accessible, especially in regions where financial inefficiencies hold people back,” said moove.xyz in a company statement. “For freelancers, creators, influencers, and professional service providers across Africa, getting paid by a client overseas should not mean losing value to FX spreads, delays, or identity checks. With moove.xyz, users can get paid globally in stablecoins like USDC and USDT, instantly and with full control, regardless of borders or local banking constraints — that is what a truly borderless, KYC-free crypto payment experience looks like.”

moove.xyz supports 16,000+ cryptocurrencies across 30+ blockchains, enabling African users to accept stablecoin payments such as USDC and USDT on networks including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Base, zkSync, Polygon zkEVM, Blast, Mantle, and Celo. Behind the scenes, an integrated cross-chain bridge and EVM-compatible routing let users swap crypto across chains and settle in the asset they want, on the network their client uses — true crypto interoperability without the unpredictable slippage, slow settlement, or high gas fees of legacy tools. With branded @moovehandles, universal QR Codes, and payment links, a creator in Lagos can get paid by a brand in London without managing wallet addresses or juggling multiple chains, while benefiting from predictable fees, near-instant settlement, full non-custody, and no KYC.

The timing matters. Africa is among the fastest-growing stablecoin and Web3 markets in the world, with stablecoins increasingly used not for speculation but for everyday cross-border earning, saving, and settlement. As demand grows for a global DeFi payment app for businesses and individuals alike, moove.xyz is emerging as a key enabler — bringing decentralised finance (DeFi) and secure cross-chain transactions to the freelancers, creators, and small businesses who need them most, rather than to traders in faraway financial capitals.

By continuing to expand across Africa and enhancing its mobile and web platforms, moove.xyz aims to make global stablecoin payments as effortless as sending a message — supporting its long-term vision to onboard the next billion Web3 users and make cross-border money movement faster, cheaper, and accessible to everyone, everywhere.

About moove.xyz

moove.xyz is a global Web3 fintech platform built for the permissionless and effortless movement of value. We empower businesses and consumers anywhere to send, receive, stake, and swap any cryptocurrencies across any blockchains — all in one single platform.

We are one of the first Web3 fintech companies globally to innovate and build a full-stack crypto payments and decentralised finance infrastructure, enabling an integrated and comprehensive coverage across multi-chain wallet access, personalised wallet handles, cross-chain token swaps, embedded cross-chain transactions and a decentralised social financial network. Our key products include Moove Profile, Moove Send, Moove Receive, Moove Stake, Moove Swap, Moove Rewards, Moove Discover and more.

The Pocono appearance continues the multi-race partnership that puts the Teslong brand front and center across the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series and the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, connecting the company with millions of motorsports fans and automotive professionals throughout the season.

Coming Off a Strong Run at Talladega

Teslong heads into the June 13 weekend with momentum. In April, the team enjoyed a strong showing at Talladega Superspeedway, where Emerling brought the RSS Racing entry home in one piece and in contention—a result the whole program was proud to be part of.

“It was a solid run for us at Talladega—we made it to the end in one piece and in contention,” said Patrick Emerling. “Thanks to everyone who keeps the train rolling for us. My team has been running Teslong’s borescopes and thermal cameras all season, and we’ve been really impressed. We’re excited to keep that going at Pocono and to keep showing fans what these tools can do.”

That confidence is no accident. Throughout the campaign, Teslong’s gear has played a behind-the-scenes role in keeping Emerling’s car race-ready—proof that the same precision Teslong brings to professional shops translates directly to the demands of the racetrack.

The Tools Powering Performance—Now NASCAR-Backed

Two Teslong products have been central to the team’s preparation and stability on track, and both are now backed by their performance in one of the toughest proving grounds in motorsports:

  • TD-500 Automotive Inspection Endoscope (Borescope): A high-resolution diagnostic camera that lets technicians see inside engines, cylinders, and hard-to-reach components without disassembly—catching issues early and keeping the car dependable lap after lap.
  • 22mm Dual-Cylinder Automotive Tire Inflator: A flagship power tool delivering true dual-cylinder airflow for fast, accurate inflation, with a removable 20V battery system and Type-C fast charging—built for quick, reliable service whether in the garage or on the road.

Both tools earned their stripes supporting Emerling’s consistent on-track performance this season, and both are engineered to the same exacting standards trusted by HVAC specialists, construction crews, automotive technicians, gunsmiths, and law enforcement professionals worldwide.

35% Off the NASCAR-Proven Lineup

To celebrate the Pocono weekend, fans and professionals can bring the same NASCAR-backed performance into their own garage. The TD-500 inspection endoscope, the 22mm Dual-Cylinder Tire Inflator, and other featured products are available now at 35% OFF on the Teslong official website and on Amazon. These are the very products that have helped power stable, dependable performance throughout Emerling’s season—now within reach for everyone from working technicians to weekend DIYers.

A Legacy of Innovation Meets Motorsports Excellence

Backed by a global R&D team of more than 40 engineers, designers, and developers and state-of-the-art assembly lines, every Teslong product is built to deliver accuracy, durability, and performance in the most demanding environments.

“NASCAR is more than a race—it’s a community of automotive enthusiasts who value quality, innovation, and hard work,” said James Sun, CEO of Teslong. “Pocono is another great stage to show what our tools can do. Whether it’s keeping a race car dependable or helping a technician get the job done right, Teslong is built to perform when it matters most.”
