Decentralization is a global energy-efficiency play; "web3 is greener"
Interview with Greg Osuri of Akash Network (Web3 Working Group)
“I look at decentralization as a way to improve global energy efficiency for computational resources, just pure and simple… hyperscalers are building new data centers to expand… whereas web3 and decentralization is inward-looking at what we have already deployed… web3 is greener for me. Like, web3 is about efficiency and improving the global energy usage efficiency.” — 00:30:16
Context: Answering what web3 infrastructure means; he cites ~7.2 million data centers, mostly underused, with wasted carbon and cooling (00:28:49).
