Motivation[edit]
I would like to list all cryptocurrencies and rank them by their energy consumption per transaction. --So9q (talk) 11:45, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
Discussion[edit]
- Question Here all examples relate to only one website. Would modelling that as an external identifier for that website be better? For instance "digiconomist cryptocurrency energy consumption identifier" or something like that? In that case is such identifier that relevant? Modelling that as a single value looks very problematic to me. What would be the best way to handle its evolution over time? And the different sources or calculation methodologies? Is adding extra qualifiers (like the date, source and potentially calculation method if there is a way to represent that) the way to deal with that? Would that be obvious to people wanting to add such information? Or would the cryptocurrencies elements end up with a single value that isn't very meaningful, again and again over time?

- see below, maybe use event interval (P2257) with a qualifier "per transaction" ? --Hannes Röst (talk) 03:17, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
