They couldnt find a miner to support the reduction in block reward. What I bet happens is Ethereum ends up having to hard fork away to get these changes implemented. Miners will stick to the chain they on now because they dont want to see a reduction in profits. Problem Is those propping the coin up are the ones wanting the reduction. Stuck between rock and hard place Id say. Quite the conundrum. End result will be loss in mining rewards in terms of usd no matter what they decide. Id say pow mining has some major issues that need addressed. Maybe its not a viable way to secure a blockchain. Greed if left unchecked becomes cancerous in nature. If that is what is to happen to crypto then so be it. just be ready for it is all I ask

Hmm. Maybe if devs gave even a single fuck about... decentralization and ASIC resistance then maybeeeee miners would have helped out on testnet.

But nope

"ASIC resistance - Do we even care about that" Actual quote from dev meeting. Obviously miners are the fault here and not the devs despite what whitepaper says /s

It will be cool if miners say fuck you to the devs and refuse to fork, it probably wont happen but its a huge risk I have a feeling these cowardly devs dont have the ball to risk , thus the delay lol
