<elichai2> A thought, the average block rate currently is 9 minutes and 28.25 seconds (`(timestamp(block 634,687)-timestamp(block 1)) / 634,687`), if we were to use "longest chain" instead of "heaviest chain" will it even be possible to create a chain that long without spending as much PoW and also *without going into the future* (ie the block rate average will have to be the same)
<elichai2> Comments are welcome :)
<tromp> it's trivial to make a longest chain starting from genesis keeping diff at minimum

<elichai2> tromp: you can't keep diff at minimum if you need to have the block rate at ~9:30 minutes
<tromp> you can do as you please by exploiting the difficulty adjustment off-by-1 bug
<tromp> but even without that, you could keep the diff within a small factor of minimum
<elichai2> tromp: how? I'm not sure myself if it will work or not (didn't do the calculations), but if you need faster than 10mins block (which you do need to compete with the current chain) your difficulty will keep going up

<tromp> actually, you need the bug for getting avg below 10 min. but you don't need bug for avg above 10 min...

<instagibbs> wondering if you can leverage the max difficulty adjustment for this thought experiment (also, has bitcoin ever his max adjustment?)
