Fixing issues like energy consumption, confirmation time, fees?
Just in case you haven't heard of Nano, allow me to tell you it's an attempt at creating a peer-to-peer digital currency with minimal energy consumption, 0 fees, 0 minimum account balance, very fast confirmation (ideally sub-second, sometimes a bit slower) and 0 supply inflation.
It focuses on doing one thing and doing it well: transferring value efficiently, sustsinably and without middlemen.
It's around since 2015 and still kicking, getting better and better with each release, ironing kinks out.
It might sound too good to be true, but it's worth a look; make up your own mind.

The alternative being a ~4 years younger criminal without any morals.

And with some small but non-zero chance dying several years later from SSPE.

You aren't mistaken.
Afaiu it also saves them from https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subacute_sclerosing_panencephalitis, which is a delayed death sentence.

The thing is: whether Israel accepts this or not, they're in a bad place if other states do so.
It's about time major players like the US and Germany startt doing the right thing.

What about discussing Palestinian statehood although Israeli terrororism continues?
Otherwise Israel would have a means to block said discussions.

Thank you for the additional info.
I think I just wanted to believe there's at least one religion that leads to good deeds and good deeds only. You may call me naive.

Someone doesn't like our comments. Have we kicked a hornet's nest? lol. I've only been able to see Buddhism practiced in the west. I couldn't have imagined how horrible it can be practiced elsewhere.
In all fairness, what they do with animals is opposed to Buddhist doctrine.
Then again a lot of what (fundamentalist) Christians do is opposed to Christian doctrine.
The common denominator seems to be: horrible people doing horrible things in the name of $placeholder.

I'd love to get the long version, because from what I've gathered so far Buddhism doesn't appear to be built around aggregation and (ab)use of power.
I may be completely off though and would like to have additional information!

I'm no expert on that matter, but I can imagine problems getting a bill passed with support for Ukraine only and even more so for a bill with support for Ukraine and Palestine.
Apparently supporting Ukraine has a price beyond money sigh

Buddhism wants to have a word with you.
