Maybe now Kotobukiya will actually produce new batches of some of the old figure kits . <| sep |> Interesting idea , and one worth some attention as a contingency plan . The concerns I can see areHow much it would damage trust in the currency would it still be called bitcoin even ? . I imagine we would definitely see sub $ 100 prices . Who would be willing to invest in and develop mining equipment for a currency that has previously expelled its miners ? Would the best developers feel inclined to work on this , after bitcoin essentially failed ? I think so , but who knows . Would users and businesses move with the currency ? There are probably many other concerns here . Even rumors of developers spending time on this could shake bitcoin ' s economy . But I do agree that miners seem to be suffering a misconception of their role in the ecosystem , and we should plan for every outcome .
