Used to think BTC was hope. It isn't. It has done its job and it's time for bitcoin to move on. fired the miners, fired the SHA-256 farms, inherited the cyberhornets. BTC is now a great bet as a tech stock for a few more years and will remain incredibly liquid in the fiat system. It's therefore now a perfect buffer separating the hard fork Blake2B coin from the state's fiat system. That's why the Blake2B hard fork coin is the hope now. Satoshi saw hard-fork capability as a feature not a bug. His BTC never had a buffer. BCH and BSV didn't get it. This fork is now his money separated from state. Good news, right!

You don't have to hand over any info or Talk to anyone to join, and nobody Bugs you once joined. It's so easy its hard to comprehend.
Back in the day Macs had one button mice. So simple It was stupid. But unless you were a novice on computers and knew Nothing else, it was retarded. That's Nostrs challenged. It's too simple

Made the mistake of watching a YouTube video on YouTube app. How does anybody put Up with ads in the middle of songs even.

Demonstrations in Spain against private sector abuse of housing are Illuminating.

A fundamentally social country where the strength of the family unit is still very strong.

A nation with a rural population driven to the cities ( once forcibly by Franco and since by persuasive incentives by the economic system).

A massive stock of empty housing in españa vaciada in communitities on life support in constant search of subsidies.

How can nobody join these dots for a solution?

After 45 days, then what on Blake2b chain?

The claim from day one has been that home-computer-friendly mining is pointless because ASICs may eventually appear. That argument confuses permanent ASIC prevention with temporary but economically meaningful ASIC disadvantage.

No proof-of-work algorithm can guarantee that specialized hardware will never be developed. That is not the correct objective. The objective should be to ensure that specialized hardware does not gain such a decisive advantage that network security becomes purchasable by a small number of industrial actors.

A CPU-friendly, memory-hard algorithm can keep ordinary computers competitive, broaden the mining base, and make it harder for one investor or manufacturer to acquire majority hash power cheaply.

A 45-day reward delay may discourage short-term opportunists, but it does not solve ASIC centralization. After 45 days, the chain still needs a durable security model.

What if the algorithm were genuinely CPU-friendly, the delay may give a committed community time to build that model. If the algorithm is easily dominated by specialized hardware, delayed payment merely postpones the problem?

shame the blake2b community didn't set up on Nostr instead of X and Discord. The conversations are so triggered and shouty over there. Nostr would calm a lot of the heat down.
