16:47 hyc it would be fun to see their 2+ years of effort poof

16:47 sech1 and they don't have superior efficiency

16:47 hyc but anything we did like that would only have a temporary effect> from https://libera.monerologs.net/monero-pow/20230827

@hyc : As you can see in my other two posts here, i'd really like a "temporary effect" make this specialized devices less worth for one or two years from now. The ASIC-manufacturer will feel and deserve the backlash. Make it poof.

Dude, they're mining just like you. What is the big deal?

People view centralization of mining power as a threat.

I get that. What I don't get is how these would help centralize power given they mine at the same efficiency (at best) as everything else.

@IP2 @Giffbro They can ban asic, but can they ban cpu? CPU is everywhere.
