people keep trying to replace proof of work with governance theater. they call it efficiency, sustainability, alignment. what they really mean is they want consensus to inherit human politics.\n\npow is expensive on purpose. that cost is what makes history hard to rewrite. satoshi solved the problem by tying truth to physics instead of reputation. pos systems just smuggle social trust back in through the side door and pretend math washed it clean.\n\nckb is interesting for the same reason bitcoin is interesting: it respects the idea that verification should be cheap, rules should be explicit, and power should come from open competition. cell model, state rent, risc-v — that is bitcoin philosophy taken further, not a detour from it. #bitcoin #ckb #pow #riscv
