We need a usable p2pool software so that everyone starts mining. It's the only way, we need decentralized mining. We need it easy to install & configure, clean and with intuitive gui.

You still need ASICs do mine now through. And you can't expect everyone to purchase chips and boards that become outdated in two months.

The mining part of bitcoin has definitely veered off course from it's original intention.

yes. And think about what will happen in 5 years. Maybe only 4 companys will control it and beginning only to accept transaction from ppl who have a registered adress giving them from their gov.

....as more I think about these stuff....o_0

That's actually a really interesting hypothetical. I've never heard or thought of something like that before.

What would happen if the government did go after mining pools in someway? Forcing them to reject certain transactions. It could start with terrorism, or drugs, and then lead to who knows what.

I guess the easy answer would be to have mining pools operating out of friendly countries, but who knows how many of those, if any, there will be.

I'm not paranoid, nor do I think this is necessarily likely, but it's something that does not seem outside the realm of possibility.

As soon we became support from ppl who are normaly against things like what bitcoin stand for, it could be a confirm.
