Now that DNotes is POS, it changes the game quite a bit. NOTE moves from the energy intensive camp to the efficient side where folks can make money supporting the network without hurting the environment to do it. Mining was an incredible invention when it appeared in Bitcoin but, it's time is limited now that more efficient ways to verify transactions like POS are becoming commonplace.

PoS is better way to grown crypto ecosystem without significant adverse impacts on global environment.
This sort of phase will help to make more sustainable blockchain operations.
It's good to know that DNotes changed to PoS.

Thanks dumedoiiph, PoS is much more inline with DNotes goals of becoming an inclusive digital currency. It doesn't require special hardware and very little knowledge required to get started, so it doesn't limit participation to those with the knowledge and money to properly mine. Staking as well as our CRISP reward involve stake holders in the distribution of newly created coins.
