Proof of Capacity (PoC) blockchains use hard drive storage instead of computing power to validate transactions, making them energy-efficient. Burstcoin, Signum, and Spacemesh operate on PoC consensus, where miners precompute cryptographic solutions and store them for future use. This method reduces electricity costs while maintaining security and decentralization. PoC blockchains offer a sustainable alternative for mining and blockchain validation.
