The community has been trashing POW as proof-of-waste. Yet it is the miners who we are attracting into the bitshares ecosystem. We are biting the hand that can feed us.
We have to rethink how we approach the bitcoin and its altcoin communities.
I agree. We need to be bitcoin friendly.
Bitshares is the evolution of Proof of Work. Not only can you mine Bitshares with the minebitshares merge mining pool, you can also do REAL work for Bitshares: development, marketing, etc, as a delegate, as an employee of the blockchain, and get paid that way.
