Bitcoin POS version would turn badly very soon.
99.9 % of bitcoiners are POW fanatics, as soon as you gift them a POS coin they would rush to sell it at any price the market is paying for it.
This would probably crash the market cap of the bitcoin POS to 2 or 300k $, as a consequence it will become very centralized in the hands of a few believers, better stick to the oldest POS coins, they are better distributed then any bitcoin POS fork will ever be.
I suspect most bitcoiners would just ignore the bitcoin-POS fork and I doubt there would be much demand to buy the coins on the fork, at least initially (effectively making the market cap small). This would have the side effect of ensuring the available coins cannot be concentrated in a few hands. 12 million or so of the coins would just sit unmoved like Satoshi's 1 million or so do in bitcoin-POW. I'm curious what would happen in the long term.
I guess we'll never know though, because writing code like
if block >= 338000 then
checkStake...
else
....
where the code for checkStake is ported from some current PoS coin would take a really long time. I guess I could do it, but first I'd need an IPO to raise...1
million dollars.
