GrahamBell is an experimental blockchain design that proposes a novel Proof-of-Work variant capped at ~1 hash/second per identity to structurally slow down 51% attacks rather than making them instantly expensive. It's interesting because it shifts influence toward sustained participation and attempts to eliminate hardware advantages and parallel mining, representing a fresh conceptual approach to blockchain security.

Target audience: blockchain researchers, cryptocurrency developers, protocol designers
