”the price of a product has jack shit to do with the amount of labor put into it”; that is to say, i don’t think many people truly comprehend the tail risks of hash rate being thermodynamically driven towards revenue.
there’s a price that no one is willing to pay to do a bitcoin transaction, as there’s an amount no miner is willing to lose to produce the next block. the difficulty adjusts only after every 2016 blocks. there’s three (3) major sha-256 chains, and two (2) of them have protocol-level limitations on throughput. it’s de facto a political decision to not have the same amount of coins of each branch as a hedge.
