A few years back anybody with a decent home PC could mine BTC, nowadays the barrier for entry pretty much requires a truckload of Nvidia products (or customized ASICs) and subsidized electricity.

Fast forward a few years ahead. Do you see more or fewer miners participating in such ecosystem?

PoW as it’s currently implemented encourages centralization.
