We are considering a variety of possibilities. I think the idea of going hybrid POW/POS is interesting, as ETH will no longer be able to be mined, and we could get massive extra hash power that way. Better for long term distribution and we can still easily control inflation.

POS only is likely the leading option, then POW/POS Hybrid, then something else that is a new type of hybrid is another option (if everyone agreed).

As for merge mining, a lot of the hyped alt coin merge mining algos are pretty bad, but if there was a secure option that could be interesting.

Interesting.
Actually wondering if ETH-EXP could be linked to allow for "expanded", second tier, low cost capacity for ETH dApps to run on, that may not require the faster confirmation time and higher security.
This could get interesting once the high cost of ETH, or demand based dApp contention ever becomes an issue.

What do you guys think is the main reason that EXP is so undervalued? By all laws of crypto known to me, it should already be much higher, what am I missing?

Litecoin, PPC, NVC and NMC are just Bitcoin clones... But look at those marketcaps, NVC is a scamcoin all premined by a group of people and buyed all by BTC-E and it have 2x the Exp marketcap. NMC it´s a dead coin and look at that market cap, 12 times EXP... Also the same with PPC another dead coin and 20 times the EXP marketcap.

Same here. Can you explain?
