I have not seen any arguments yet, why Satoshi is not Adam.
I did say "crypto currency, that is suitable for mining in the browser" for exactly this reason: That Bitcoin is not well suited for it.
One would have to look at what typical consumer hardware is good at. Maybe an algorithm that saturates one CPU core with serial calculations that need fast access to exactly 1GB of RAM. I think consumer hardware is pretty good when it comes to single core performance and RAM access.
- swinglock 4y agoYou'd only need lightning integration and paying a small amount of sats, recycling the Bitcoin proof of work instead of making more. You could even have the server transfer the same sats back and forth as a token as long as the server side is happy.

- swinglock 4y agoWell it would "just" have to be integrated in browsers. :) You don't have to buy it, you could crunch numbers for an equivalent cost if that's preferable. The advantage is that the effort can be stored and used later, so you need not even add a 2 second latency. Similar to "Privacy Pass".
