You +want the numbers and sentiment moving in that direction (down, versus +"own the market! </IPO>"). + +The more critical piece is fleshing out the various proposals and +technical solutions for decentralized transaction selection and other +aspects of SPOF-proofing mining. + +Historical note: On one hand, Satoshi seemed to dislike the early +emergence of GPU mining pools quite a bit. On the other hand, Satoshi +noted that the network would probably devolve down to a few big +players if we ever reached VISA/MC transaction levels. Satoshi +clearly never figured this part out :) + +Today, there is consensus on the need for a "keep bitcoin free and +open" technical solution, but it remains to be seen how much we +engineers can really do to make life fair. Making transaction +selection a bit more independent from hashpower seems one step. There +are several other proposals floating about. + +-- +Jeff Garzik +Bitcoin core developer and open source evangelist +BitPay, Inc. https://bitpay.com/ + + |
