https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2017-April/014193.html

- It uses OP_RETURN
- It requires some percentage of tagged input addresses to reach a certain

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2017-May/014321.html

- It requires soft fork and a new opcode OP_CHECKBLOCKVERSION

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2022-April/020344.html

- It requires soft fork

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2013-June/002729.html

- It involves Proof-of-Stake voting based on UTXOs
