Sure.

But also... I've often pondered if the current reality of mining was the best way forward.

I don't mean proof of stake (🤢) but the monero ASIC resistance algo always seemed intrguing.

Perhaps ASIC corporate mining was inevitable, sure.
Perhaps ASIC pay to play is literally the security of the network at the base layer. Sure.

But it's OK to envision different formations of decentralization too.

I've often just wondered if there's a better way to do mining. It might evolve like the rest of the network.
