In an email conversation, Sergio Demian Lerner shared his idea for the redesign of the Bitcoin block header. The proposed solution involves including a 4-byte hash of the second 64-byte chunk in the first 64 bytes, which allows for increased nonce space. Lerner corrected himself in a follow-up email, stating that the actual design is to include a 4-byte hash of the first chunk in the second 64-byte chunk. A link to Lerner's blog post on the topic was also provided: https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2014/03/18/the-re-design-of-the-bitcoin-block-header/.
