This is the case with crypto currencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum which are mostly used for trading rather than actually being used for trading. There is a French project for a non-energy consuming crypto-currency that puts the human at the centre of the currency. Don't hesitate to have a look at the official website. https://libre-currency.org/

At a guess, I think that means that they're used as commodities to be traded, rather than used as a means of exchange of goods/services (trading)
Fucking translator ^^ What I meant was that this currency is more for trading (selling items and services) rather than for investment and enrichment.
