Hence my 'Purely from a PoW/Pos Hybrid perspective'.

I understand there are some PoS issues which clearly you have a greater understanding of than 99.9% of the people on this thread, myself included. I hope these can be addressed appropriately, and as an onlooker and potential investor of any coin am keeping my eye on it. Can't devs/code gurus get together and whittle down the actual issues together? Isn't that what open source is all about?
