Like @24 said, 21e8 cannot provide as much POW as cheaply as Matterpool can. 21e8's ASIC miners will be way behind in terms of POW/cost. Bitcoin mining is already hyper efficient b/c they have been using ASICs for so long.

Why would you want a less costly signal? Cheap proof of work is easier to fake therefore it is not as honest of a signal.
