I disagree about the ASCI part though, to increase adoption it helps to be able to use the same tools. Inflationary rewards would mean insta mining with a big rig still wouldn't be a huge amount of coins 10 months later.

It would increase early adoption, but harm later adoption, and most importantly wider adoption, due to purchasing a rig becoming a barrier to entry.  No one outside of bitcoin has fancy ASIC rigs, but everyone has spare CPU cycles.

As it stands, it seems there's no currently-available solution that meets everything, right?  So I might as well start brushing up on the white papers, because I'll have to make the new coin along with the thing I plan to do with it?
