I wouldn’t call Algorand a shitcoin. There’s Bitcoin, altcoins and shitcoins. Altcoins have credible teams exploring alternative architectures, which is fine. And yes current wisdom is there’s no free lunch and you have to spend some resource to gain decentralized security. But it’s worth having credible altcoins exploring if that rule can, like Neo in the matrix, be bent or broken with some clever crypto or other CS. ;)
