06:19:22 tromp: you've got a lot of gall spewing lies about the Monero PoW changes 06:19:25 https://www.metzdowd.com/pipermail/cryptography/2021-January/036536.html 06:20:31 nobody ever claimed any of the CryptoNight tweaks were expected to last for years 06:20:54 it was always stated that they were interim tweaks to knock out existing ASICs, only. 06:21:10 to buy time for a long term solution to be developed. which was done. 06:22:19 and it's also clearly stated in the RandomX design doc that verification speed was aimed at being the same as CN verification speed. 06:22:23 which was also done. 06:23:26 and none of this was unknown to you - you've been present here the entire time, witness to all the discussions as they occurred. 06:25:48 the theme of your message - "everything's a trade-off" may be accurate. but you could have made your point without such blatant lies. 11:20:10 answered in email 12:24:46 RandomX verification is even a bit faster than CryptoNight, even in the slow mode. And much faster in full dataset mode.
