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

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.

TimeTrack Launches Family Manager: An All-In-One Command Center for Modern Households
-
Family Manager is a newly launched platform by TimeTrack that brings all family needs, like calendars, shopping lists, expenses, budgets, notes, meals, and messaging, into one intelligent, unified app.
Chicago, Illinois, 4 Dec 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, TimeTrack Launches Family Manager, an all-in-one command center for modern households, bringing every part of family organization into a clean, intelligent, and unified app.

Families today are juggling multiple things all at once, such as school schedules, grocery lists, budgets, meal prep, and endless reminders, leading to coordination overload. The average household now uses 4–7 different apps to stay organized, often leading to fragmented information and missed details. Newly launched Family Manager solves this problem by bringing all family organization into one place.
Family Manager combines the most essential aspects of a household into a single interface. Its Shared Family Calendar is where parents and kids can add and track events like school activities, appointments, and chore reminders, so that everything is visible and synchronized, reducing scheduling conflicts and last-minute chaos.
The platform also includes Smart Shopping Lists with auto-sync, where shopping lists connect directly to upcoming events like road trips, school projects, birthdays, and weekly meals. Families can add and update items collaboratively in real time. With Expense Tracking + Receipt Scanning, supported by AI-powered upload and organization, managing household expenses becomes effortless. Families can take photos of receipts, auto-log transactions, and view simple reports with shared visibility into spending. This is especially useful for households managing shared budgets or allowances.
Another important feature is the NEW Budget Planner, built on a Maslow-style needs hierarchy. Spending is organized into intuitive, meaningful categories like Physiological (food, essentials), Safety (rent, utilities, insurance), Love & Belonging (family outings, experiences), Esteem (health, self-improvement), and Self-Actualization (learning, hobbies).

Family Manager also introduces the NEW AI Meal Planner + Recipe Generator, which uses shopping lists, budgets, dietary preferences, and past habits to create a full weekly breakfast/lunch/dinner plan. Users get serving portions for kids and adults, dietary-aware recipes (vegetarian, gluten-free, low-carb, allergy-friendly), and auto-synced shopping lists for missing ingredients. Meal prep becomes a one-tap process instead of an hour-long task. To reduce scattered communication, the platform includes Shared Notes & Messaging, giving families a unified interface for reminders, quick notes, and running lists, without needing group chats or scattered text messages.
The platform is available at https://timetrack.management/family.
About Family Manager:
Family Manager is a unified household organization platform that simplifies family life. It combines calendars, shopping lists, expenses, budgeting, notes, recipes, messages, and AI-powered planning tools into one intelligent interface.

Conan Higgins Hits #1 on Amazon as The Maverick’s Blueprint Redefines Crisis Leadership for Today’s Unstable World
-
Conan J. Higgins, Esq., KM, Ph.D., crisis leadership consultant and international business law expert, has officially reached #1 Amazon Bestseller status across multiple categories with his debut book, The Maverick’s Blueprint: Crisis Leadership for an Unstable World.
Cheyenne, WY, 4 Dec 2025,ZEX PR WIRE, Conan J. Higgins, Esq., KM, Ph.D., has achieved a major milestone as his book, The Maverick’s Blueprint: Crisis Leadership for an Unstable World, secured the #1 position on Amazon across several key business categories, including Strategic Management, Business Systems and Planning, Entrepreneurship Management, and Business and Money Skills.

Image: The Maverick’s Blueprint by Conan Higgins
Higgins, who is an expert in crisis leadership, international law, and high-risk operational command, has written the book as the only resource decision-makers need in the globally unstable and extremely pressuring business world.
The Maverick’s Blueprint: Crisis Leadership for an Unstable World is unlike traditional leadership theory. It is written for executives, entrepreneurs, project managers, and anyone responsible for high-stakes outcomes. It provides practical, battle-tested frameworks built from experience and through missions where failure meant damaged companies, collapsed multimillion-dollar ventures, or even lives lost.
From SWAT operations to combat-zone command to international business crises, Conan Higgins has spent 25 years leading when everything falls apart. He’s managed projects worth hundreds of millions across eight countries, resolved emergencies on multiple continents, and built teams that execute under extreme pressure.
With his debut book, he has laid out the strategies that worked for him and will definitely work for other such leaders. For him, the unconventional leadership principles that work when everything else breaks down include the DETECT Early Warning System (spot crises before they explode), the RAPID Crisis Response Protocol (a systematic framework for managing chaos), Cultural Intelligence Under Pressure (lead effectively across any cultural boundary), and the 41-Question Crisis Leadership Assessment (identify your strengths and blind spots).
Higgins promises that these strategies can turn around failing projects, build unshakeable loyalty, and turn challenges into career-defining wins.
The book’s #1 Amazon ranking is the result of a strong response from readers who are attracted to Higgins’ unconventional approach. The audience loves the legal analysis, tactical operations, cultural intelligence, and high-pressure decision-making strategies that form a clear model for modern leadership.
The Maverick’s Blueprint is part of Higgins’ mission to provide leaders with the mindset and methodology they need to operate in uncertain environments. He adds his gripping stories in the book, which illuminate what it takes to lead when circumstances collapse and stakes rise.
Higgins’ #1 Amazon achievement also shows the relevance of his message: in an unstable world, crisis leadership is not optional but essential. It is the skill that determines which teams survive, which organizations adapt, and which leaders rise.
The Maverick’s Blueprint is now available on Amazon in Kindle and print formats.
