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.

Press Release
Trakx expands Canton presence as CTIs become available through Five North’s Loop wallet

Trakx, the leading platform for crypto-index trading, announced that its Crypto Tradable Indices (CTIs) are now available through Five North’s Loop wallet on Canton, enabling CTIs to be held and transferred on-chain through a Canton-native wallet environment. The milestone marks a new step in the evolution of Trakx’s index products beyond the Trakx platform and into the broader infrastructure of the Canton ecosystem.
With this integration, Trakx Crypto Tradable Indices gain a new layer of accessibility and portability on-chain. By becoming available through Loop, Five North’s wallet product for Canton, CTIs can now be held and transferred across the Canton Network, an institutional-grade blockchain environment designed for privacy and interoperability.
The development is strategically significant for Trakx as it continues to strengthen the infrastructure and distribution layer surrounding its crypto index products. While CTIs have historically been accessed primarily through the Trakx platform, their availability through Loop reflects a broader shift toward interoperability, partner integration, and professional distribution models across digital assets.
“This milestone is about more than wallet availability,” said Lionel Rebibo, CEO at Trakx. “It reflects the direction we believe digital asset products need to take: beyond standalone platform access and toward deeper integration within institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure. By making CTIs available through Loop on Canton, we are taking a concrete step toward broader B2B and B2B2C distribution, stronger interoperability, and a more scalable framework for partners looking to integrate structured digital asset exposure into their own environments.”
Canton Network plays an important role in that strategy. Designed as a privacy-enabled blockchain network with a strong institutional orientation, Canton provides the type of infrastructure environment that can support on-chain issuance, asset portability, and interoperable financial workflows. For Trakx, this creates a foundation for CTIs to evolve from platform-native products into assets that can be integrated into broader access and distribution models.
Five North‘s role in the Canton ecosystem gives additional strategic relevance to the launch. As a builder and operator of core infrastructure on Canton Network, including wallets, explorers, and validator systems, Five North occupies a meaningful position within the network. Its Loop wallet provides the practical layer through which CTIs can now be held and transferred on-chain, helping translate tokenization into real ecosystem usability.
For Trakx, the move is especially relevant in the context of partner-led adoption. The company sees increasing value in enabling B2B platforms, B2B2C distributors and other professional intermediaries to access more structured and infrastructure-ready models for digital asset exposure. In that sense, the integration is not simply a technical enhancement, but part of a broader distribution strategy focused on making CTIs easier to integrate, distribute, and use across professional environments.
As digital asset markets mature, infrastructure, accessibility, and interoperability are becoming just as important as product design. With CTIs now available through Five North’s Loop wallet on Canton, Trakx is advancing its objective of building not only better crypto index products, but also better infrastructure pathways for those products to be held, transferred and integrated across the next generation of on-chain finance.
