Title: Proof of Stake
Post by: goodguyed on July 06, 2015, 02:56:01 PM
There are a lot of different methods for proof of stake out there. I thought maybe a thread discussing the different types and to debate which is "better" may be useful.

Do you care the PoS? If you do, what kind are you looking for? Do you shy away from any if you're not "in" by a certain time?
