Maybe they should make conventional data centers greener first.
....

I see two big problems with this.

The first is that who decides what is a "green miner" and who isn't. That's right, they have centralized entities doing that which means the mining process becomes less decentralizedd as the process can be hijacked to exclude miners they don't like.

Second, who actually guarantees that any of the transactions are going to land in a block. This would require all miners not submitting their block templates to Bitcoin and to the centralized entity. This stinks of sanctions.

I think the problem is that they are basically shifting the emissions elsewhere, and not really eliminating them.

Bitcoin mining is naturally greener than most people think.
I know hydroelectric is the cheaper electricity available, and naturally miners will move where the energy is cheap.

It's certainly possible since they used to list Ordinal-based token and there's speculation they plan to list Rune-based token as well[2].

I agree with Loop here.. I don't think it should be profitable to sell those tBTC.

I think tBTC is way better than most altcoins, but it isn't supposed to have any value. It should be really easy fast and free to get tons of tBTC, so nobody would ever think about buying it or speculating with it.

I am not opposed to airdrops for people who test new projects, as this is somehow a work, like beta testers.

Unfortunately, two campaigns are most likely finished on the forum 
Tumbler and Unijoin are on Hold

It is becoming harder to make money in both btt and altcoinstalks

Just before Cm Was seized (less than 2 years ago) it was easy to get 300 usd per week in the campaign and also we had lots of reviews that paid 20-90 usd per review, which happened quite often. SB paid similar rates too.

Now campaigns are paying much lower, with less spots...

I hope  new campaigns shows up. Usually, when a mix dies 2 more show up

I believe the signature payments are more likely as a way to live you present times better because now the Bitcoin has already gone way higher in value and holding those coins won't be so much profitable now.

I still believe holding bitcoin will be very profitable in the future.
120k is not impossible, and it is already 100% from now.

I am holding about 80% of the coins I ever owned.

If you taken the mining gear out and just count the coins  under 5percent

This is very small. Especially for you that has been around  the forum for so long.
You basically sold everything along the years?

I will refer you to this post: https://blog.lopp.net/griefing-bitcoin-testnet/

This is where Jameson Lopp demonstrates how he managed to amplify so many transactions on testnet in order to show people what kind of problem or vulnerability he has. He is not finished apparently.

So while I definitely disapprove of all the testnet trading and airdrops, it's all very brittle and easily falls apart when testnet blocks are accelerated.

So he finally write a blog about his action. I just know that there are 3 places to trade tBTC. It's also crazy some people/group intentionally make tBTC valuable, while intentionally ignoring known weakness on testnet network.

People just want to make money.

There are airdrops on tBtc, which is crazy imo.

If binance listed tBTC, the price would skyrocket as it is better than many altcoins lol

Like I said earlier in the campaign thread: What is the point of continuing to advertise for something that isn't even accessible?

I have not used tumbler.io after I reviewed when it first started to advertise itself on Bitcointalk. It was a good mixer and I like the modern way it started with good user interface and service. We made some complaints but which were corrected and fixed very fast. But after that time, I have not used it. Do you mean the time they start campaign on this forum Altcoinstalks, the site is no more working?

I have used tumbler after the campaign started here to mix some coins . It worked perfectly
I can't remember the exact date, but I was already in the campaign.

I would be happy to see many different bitcoin layers.
I know lightning network and liquid.
