Ok so if you’re going to send inspectors and police out to the ASIC farms to verify compliance and register that miner as a “chartered” miner running the right software...why change the system at all? That’s how it works with banks under the current federal reserve system in the US and defeats the whole point of decentralization

you missed the point. miners can do whatever they want with currency. but ultimately government control how you translate that into goods, land, and how those things are taxed.
