I think, we can solve that with a smart contract, that is used for mining.
The smart contract provides the functionality of a pool and you commit your work right into the smart contract.
The contract itself has a btc-address where the reward will go, if it finds a block. Then it sends the funds depending on shares.
To secure sending you use multisig with a percentage (for example 50) of the participating miners.

This contract is allowed to have even 100% without a problem.

This project could be crowd funded. The contract could send a small fee to the crowdfunding shareholders as it is in a pool.
Anyone interested to colaborate?

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Interesting idea. Surprised that I haven't seen it brought up before. Maybe it's been discussed and I missed it though.

It does require some honest pool operators though. Them relaying their blocks on a separate IP when they start getting close to 50% is an easy way to cheat I think.
