The mere threat of it was one of the factors that I believe resolved the Blocksize War.<br/><br/>Now it feels like there&#39;s 1000x times more of people&#39;s life savings at risk. So I believe there needs to be a much more creative and elegant solution than a simple PoW change.<br/><br/>If a hard fork is truly unavoidable, let&#39;s at least take the opportunity to consider all of the items on the Hard Fork Wishlist so we never have to do it again and ossify to Bitcoin V1.0.<br/><br/>300Kb blocks, privacy by default, UTXOs ownership for all, quantum resistance, remove all the existing non-monetary spam. To overcome the incumbent network effect you need to be 10x better.<br/><br/>I even think to survive we will probably need to freeze or redistribute Blackrock&#39;s and other highly captured actors&#39; coins. Otherwise they will permanently own our coin as well, via a Sword of Damocles of being able to dump massive amounts and manipulate the price at any time.<br/><br/>If that is too unpalatable then it&#39;s time for us all to start CPU mining block 1 of Bitcoin2. <br/><br/>RUG THE SPAMMERS, FIRE THE MINERS, DETHRONE THE SUITS. 2026-08-13T09:07:26Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxtv3f2rktaylf3sjcaznds2df94cvpkhntjcy5fgfwqk3xlfdy8gzyqxhmk8lrhrx0vj6uarpjfntdv3dwfqscd9d92rru0utaqncfdzdk8n8hjy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsg3etwxjr767tnqef4dmzxrqmkjczndx8s7ty3szt24ectpy6xexspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhs0ffy6a'>nevent1q…fy6a</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>So why do we even need to hard fork the PoW algo? Even if there&#39;s just one block per day, the chain actually still works!<br/><br/>We would just be leap frogging to the prophesied hyperbitcoinization scenario where you just use the chain a few times a year to open and close lightning channels.<br/><br/>Also what happens once there&#39;s a mining difficulty adjustment? 2026-08-12T12:16:00Z
