there is something here - its about "scaring" miners to stop signaling BU .. hope someone else can run w this idea.. changing POW is a bad idea - it will push all "good" miners to BU
Yes, I noticed that BitFury has been sending their people to meet with Bitmain recently; maybe they are feeling a bit nervous due in part to this PoW talk.
some kind of financial incentive to non BU signaling miners is a must. also I think there are two separate issues
1) how to avoid the fork
2) how to defend against attack post fork
starting the convo with POW change will not help to stop the fork
maybe we change from "PoW Upgrade initiative" to "Defending Bitcoin initiative"
