The Warner-Portman-Sinema amendment to the forthcoming Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework stipulates that systems with the following property are exempt from compliance obligations:
validating distributed ledger transactions through proof of work (mining)
By default, systems which use consensus based on Proof-of-Stake (PoS) leader election mechanisms do not include a "proof of work (mining)" mechanism. To potentially comply with the proposed legislation, it would be possible to augment Proof-of-Stake consensus with a Proof-of-Work (PoW) mechanism to meet the verbeage in the amendment.
The following is a description of a minimal Proof-of-Work mechanism, inspired by the one used by Bitcoin.
