Okay. Walk me through this. How do you enforce the use of p2pool on the protocol level? How would you even distinguish a pool operation against a solo mining operation?
Wownero tried to eliminate the pool mining. But they enforced solo mining on the protocol level.
So, how would one enforce p2pool mining on the protocol level?
It’s not wasted effort, it is basically like a testnet for Monero where bleeding edge and novel tech can be tested without much impact in case of failure.
Someone would have to get pretty creative. I do not think enforcing p2pool is possible, besides we do not want to kill pool mining all together, but making running a giant pool very inefficient may be the way to go.
adding p2pool block hash and something signed by private spend key to the block requirements should accomplish this? whether or not its a good idea is another thing

Just found out about wownero (memecoin), they better put that effort to improve monero :/

If that’s in the case, amazing!
