"Green" cryptocurrencies - would Elon Musk become a market mover once again?

Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter recently announced a plan for sustainable energy for everyone on the planet, in a tweet. This could fuel a narrative of sustainability among crypto market participants and fuel a rally in green cryptocurrencies Cardano (ADA), Nano (NANO), Stellar Lumens (XLM) and Algorand (ALGO).
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and Twitter teased a master plan for sustainable energy in a recent tweet. Musk affirmed that a whitepaper with calculations and assumptions will soon be shared by the team at Tesla.
Musk’s commitment to green energy and sustainability could fuel a new narrative of “sustainable” tokens in the crypto ecosystem. Tokens like Cardano (ADA), Nano (NANO), Stellar Lumens (XLM) and Algorand (ALGO) have a lower carbon footprint compared to others, according to a recent report.

Green cryptocurrencies are those whose mining activities are powered by renewable energy sources like solar, hydroelectric, and wind. A Crypto Carbon Ratings Institute (CCRI) report concluded that Polkadot is the lowest carbon footprint crypto asset, with even lower carbon emissions than Cardano, Solana, Tezos, Avalanche and Algorand.
If the “sustainability” narrative gathers steam, it could shine the spotlight on less popular and environment-friendly cryptocurrencies. Market participants could expect a spike in demand in DOT, ADA, SOL, among others.
