We need to decentralize mining. I know its not obvious, but relying on these big pools is a vector of attack for bitcoin.

I'm certain today's chip makers could make usb asic sticks like the blockeruptors of old. 200,000 people each running a usb asic at 5-10gh/s and linked to an independent pool could make a difference

Or we could change the mining algorithm, making all those dedicated ASIC's obsolete overnight. Return to the days of CPU mining.

And face the possibility of easy attack like CPU mineable shirtcoins are.

#Bitcoin is strong also because it doesn't change the rules overnight.
