I don't have any of the calculations, but I would argue that we probably have one and it is the fiat global monetary system.

If bitcoin was a proof of stake and was the global monetary system I would have to re-think my opinions - at the moment it just seems like a cross between the worst aspects of Wall Street, the cookie clicker game, and the AI Paperclip Maximiser problem.
