Ehm, I though those discussions about "ASICs are bad, because X" ended years ago by starting "ASIC unfriendly" altcoins. ASIC industry is twisted even without AsicBoost. I don't see any particular reason why to change rules just because of 10% edge.
This is opening Pandora box and it is potentially extremely dangerous for the health of the network. You cannot know in advance what you'll break by changing the rules. Disclaimer: I don't have any stake in any ASIC company/facility. slush On Wed, May 11, 2016 at 2:20 PM, Sergio Demian Lerner via bitcoin-dev < bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org> wrote: > > > On Tue, May 10, 2016 at 6:43 PM, Sergio Demian Lerner < > sergio.d.ler...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> >> >> You can find it here: >> https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2014/03/18/the-re-design-of-the-bitcoin-block-header/ >> >> Basically, the idea is to put in the first 64 bytes a 4 byte hash of the >> second 64-byte chunk.
