&gt; Hey @VitalikButerin, instead of doing proof of work with useless puzzles, why don&#x27;t we use that massive GPU compute power to help science with numerical computation? We could wrap the problem using @HomomorphicEnc techniques. Efficiency would improve overtime. ASICs are welcome.<p>What&#x27;s your opinion?
