PoW and PoS

I recently read an article on Coin24.io about PoW and PoS — and, honestly, some points made me think 🤔

The most memorable:

↳ PoW (Proof of Work) — is when the network is supported by miners, spending real resources (energy, equipment).
↳ PoS (Proof of Stake) — when validators “freeze” coins and thus confirm transactions.

Interestingly,:
• PoW is considered more “classic” and time-tested
• PoS is a more energy-efficient and modern approach
• both have their pros and cons, and there is no ideal option

And here the question arises 🤷‍♀️
What do you think will dominate in the future — PoW or PoS, or maybe something new will appear?
