< ruby32> I was thinking about an alternate proof-of-work mechanism that removes an altcoin's PoW entirely and relies on Bitcoin's proof-of-work instead. 08:23 < ruby32> Each transaction would reference a bitcoin block and altcoin clients would wait for bitcoin blocks to be mined. 08:23 < ruby32> Other clients on the network only consider transactions valid if they reference a bitcoin block with at least 2 confirms, and transactions confirm when bitcoin blocks reach 6 confirms. 08:23 < ruby32> The only issue I can see with this system is transaction spam, but requiring burnt coins (maybe with some coin-age based scaling) to create a valid transaction would solve the spam problem. 08:23 < ruby32> I can't find any other reason that this system would not work, but it seems too easy.
