Hello, I've been a programmer for ~25 years.  I used to lurk on the Cypherpunks mailing list back  in the '90s. I'm very interested in the algorithms and crypto behind Bitcoin.

I'm concerned that Bitcoin will suffer if a large amount of hashpower become centralized in a one or a few miners (or pools of miners). I'd be interested in other people's opinions on this.
