To me POS seems like where Blockstream and Core are really headed with their road map. They have been pushing the miners are evil narrative for quite some time now. Some have even proposed changing the mining algorithm to try to get rid of the current miners. Of course they can't really do that. If they did all the hash power would go to bitcoin cash. The new algorithm would also be susceptible to attack from botnets. So how could they pull off a change to POS without the existing chain retaining hash power and economic majority? Well the answer is simple: Liquid.
