Bitcoin… do they even have any plans to move to PoS? In short, I’ll believe it when I see it. I certainly hope you’re right, though.

bitcoin is not going to pos. it'll either become too big to fail via lobbying or it will run into significant headwinds.

maybe it will require pow regulation to change the risk-reward calculation for eth to finalize its transition to pos.
