Curious how that type of coercion would be manifest. Logistically the regulators would need an automated mechanism in place to evaluate transactions going into each block. Then respond quick enough to the regulated miners before they’re included and coded into the immutable chain. Could they keep up? #TickTockNextBlock

Censorship has a direct cost to miners: they forgo the fees the censored party would have paid. This makes non-censoring miners more profitable.

The end result is that censoring miners go out of business… eventually.

Or move to friendlier areas that will allow them to make the most profit. Those transactions that people try to censor will be worth a lot for miners.

North Korea will have to pay miners in China or wherever handsomely to get their transactions through.
