The Bitcoin community seems unaware or apathetic to the impact that ASIC centralization has had. It has re-created the "1% vs. 99%" scenario...
Mostly apathetic, I suppose - especially when people start referring to ASICs as they are just a symptom, not a cause. If it's the 1% who can afford high-end ASICs, then it's the same 1% who can afford a warehouse full of GPUs as long as it's profitable to do so. Bitcoin (and other pure proof-of-work coins) is what it is, and it's unlikely to change any time soon.
But hey, that's what altcoins are for, right?
P.S. the links in your sig are all-but-one broken - stray character creeping into your URL tagsIt's too bad about Bitcoin, but there are something like 200+ altcoins, now. And Bitcoin-scrypt is trying to save Bitcoin from ASICs...
(Sig links are fixed - Darn quotes! - Thanks!)
If there ever was a hard fork of BTC I hope they'd include a POS system, but hard forks seem to only be done out of necessity these days.
not gonna happen forks are for joke coins, bitcoin isn't one of them
Not sure about that--Bitcoin was already forked, last year (or was it 2012?)
