=== '''''Does Ethereum follow ESG mandate?''''' === [[File:Top ranking digital coins in the ESG Ranking .png]] '''Table 1: ESG ASSETS toplist''' Ethereum topped the first institutional-grade crypto ESG ranking followed by Solana and Cardano, while Bitcoin lagged due to its heavy energy usage, according to crypto data firm CCData’s research. The role of environmental, social and governance (ESG) mandates in investments is becoming increasingly prevalent, especially among institutional investors and large asset management firms. ESG-related assets under management could reach 33.9 trillion by 2026, a fifth of all investments globally, global accounting firm PricewaterhouseCooper (PwC) forecasted in a report late last year. The benchmark measured environmental, social and governance risks for and opportunities of digital assets, taking into account a range of metrics including decentralization, energy consumption, community engagement. Then, the points for each metric were aggregated and weighted for an overall score of maximum 100 points, making up the final grade from AA (best) and E (worst). Assets with a BB or better grade were considered top-tier in the report. Ethereum was the only blockchain that earned an AA grade, performing well in all three ESG factors. This is partly attributed to the network’s recent transition to proof-of-stake technology, according to the report, which slashed energy consumption and made miners obsolete. Solana, Cardano and Polkadot excelled in decentralization, granting them a top-tier A grade. Bitcoin received a B grade, earning high scores in social and governance aspects but slammed for its heavy energy consumption and hardware need
