So I am going to suggest my own change/fork to Bitcoin:  automatic mixing of all coins in every block by protocol design change.  Then lists will not happen because lists will not work.

It's a good idea.  Our only hope, really, IMHO.  It would have to happen fairly soon though since the nature of the userbase is changing, and that rate of change could jump sharply.

For a variety of reasons, I'm actually not especially hopeful that this will happen, or happen quickly enough.  I'd planned to convert about half of my stash to some other asset at this juncture (based on my own profit level more than date) but the timings of my sales are associated with my level of pessimism regarding the evolutionary trajectory of Bitcoin.

The activities and methods of the Bitcoin Foundation have contributed significantly to my pessimism.
