If you are a whale: is proof of work or proof of stake better?

If you are a whale: is proof of work or proof of stake better?

I would suspect proof of stake is more valuable to a whale than proof of work. But that’s just an instinct. I doubt that they are comparable.

In proof of work – you had to translate money into hardware (thus stimming the Econ) where with proof of stake it’s just directly money: no economic stimulus via hardware purchases…

So POW had inherent wealth transfer from the wales into the economy via hardware purchases – POS has no such mechanism…

So while sure: power usage is a concern – this feels like admiral ackbar is going to shout something about price manipulations (especially by the rollable back{centralized/bank controlled}etherium)
