Ethereum developers are considering a proposal to delay the difficulty bomb and proof of stake switch coming. This is good news for miners. and will also give Ethereum developers more time to prepare for the upcoming Metropolis hardfork.

As a hobbyist miner I'm cool with this. What are your thoughts?

It will be interesting to see whether or not EIP 649 eventually gets merged into the Ethereum protocol.

Seems like a good idea for all parties unless the Eth devs are ready to roll out the metropolis hf soon.
