Making AsicBoost irrelevant



Summary:

In a discussion about AsicBoost, Jorge Timón has questioned the use of the word "embrace" in relation to a patented optimization that only one miner can use. There is a common belief that one ASIC manufacturer will gain an advantage while others won't, but Timón suggests that if the patent license is non-exclusive, then all manufacturers could benefit. This statement highlights the potential for competition among ASIC manufacturers and the importance of considering patent licensing agreements in the mining industry.
