Bitcoin cash and SV are low on the carbon emission cause they forked from BTC right? So they re-used bitcoins early work. Or am I totally wrong here?

[onion-soup]

No, Because SV does not limit block size which allows tremendous throughput. Google block size war.

>re-used bitcoins early work

All forks share the same blockchain up until certain block.

We’ll, for POW coins the “energy efficiency” falls directly out of the market cap divided by the number of transactions.

BSV has essentially free transactions and not a high market cap, and so has a (suspiciously?) high txn count to price ratio.

No, txs are cheap because blocks are big enough to allow high throuoghput. BTC has 1 MB block so txs compete to get into next bloock.

No, they use less energy because their price is lower, but they're more efficient because they scale better than Bitcoin.

(But BSV scales in an unhealthy manner.)

Less users and smaller price => fewer miners
