It is time to reconsider the GHOST protocol for more frequent blocks


Three years ago, a protocol modification called GHOST was proposed to securely allow blocks to be generated around once per second:http://bit.ly/1XfXFkj community reaction was very positive:http://bit.ly/1RMFCtf people suggested to try the new protocol in the real world (possibly as an altcoin) before implementing it in Bitcoin. Three years later, I think its usage in Ethereum at least warrants a reconsideration of the technology. More frequent blocks would also help with the block size problem. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/1XfWZLM
