i haven't been following closely, but it seems to me that
spam.trap.mailing.lists made a not-presently-debunked comparison
between the difficulty of finding a useful collision (goes down with
time: more keys to collide with) and the difficulty of solving the
proof of work (goes up with time).

the linked mailing list has no further posts.  i like to imagine
everybody too busy making money by finding hash collisions, to post.

usually hash collisions are unreasonable to find on a vps, of course.
