i still think the whole p2p-pool option would be the best, yeah it would require people to run their own node but we wouildnt need to rely on other chains. wownero already does p2p-pool because nobody wants to post their private key to a pool and its been working good for a few years now.

they can ban it like anything else but the fact that they haven’t proves that that its no threat.

BCH is the biggest threat? Thats why they don’t ban it eh?

Monero is the only biggest threat digitally to the system to the fiat system.

That doesn’t sound too bad of a trade off to secure the chain. I mean we already tell people to run their own node, so why not do so when you mine?

but maybe the finality layer will work just as well…

why not just enforce p2p pool?

It has 2 pools. One anonmous, one open. By such, big coorperations & governments can get AI to crunch numbers, and use the open pool to deanonymise the private pool. This is by no means comparable to XMR. XMR is private by default.

would add xmr support for quite a few people. i think it would encourage adoption.
