Welcome back Mr. "bye bye 👋" 😂
You bring up some fair points about data centers.
What draws more energy and produces more heat/noise?Your average CPU or ASIC? Disingenuous to imply it is anywhere near the same level.
If I buy a bitcoin ASIC miner it is obvious what it is and what I'm going to do with it. If I buy a general purpose CPU you have no clue what I'm using it for. You don't even need to buy one you likely have several lying around.
Aws only doesn't control your chain because they don't want to
Bitmain only doesn't control your chain because they don't want to
Yikes dude now you're really reaching for the stars
Sorry exaggerating, Bitmain and MicroBT*
Maybe in 2017. Nowadays how could they control asics they already sold?
It would take them years and years of manufacturing and losing money until they would have enough hash power to make an impact.
Unless a government had been stockpiling ones not made available to the public all these years...with an unlimited money printer, and only a couple manufacturers to bribe. How would we know?
I consider it unlikely too...but still well within the realm of possiblility.
Also "no known quantum vulnerbilities" doesn't really mean anything. I'm sure some would be quickly found if it was more relevant. Maybe if it was an algorithm more people have looked at it would be more meaningful
