Proof of capacity is a relatively new mining protocol currently in use by only one cryptocurrency (Burstcoin).

It has often been touted as the mining algorithm that can help solve the energy crisis that we face with PoW mining. It can also allow for greater decentralisation that PoS mining.

Proof of Capacity mining makes use of hard drives to precompute solutions that are stored until the consensus round.

Do you guys think that it can actually scale? Any views on the possibility of further coins using the algorithms?
