An ideal version of Bitcoin should have:
– all the OP codes that builders need to start working (CTV, CAT, CFSF, BIP300)
– Zcash privacy
– large enough blocks to support the Lightning network
– Lamport/Winternitz signatures for quantum resistance
– 64 bit integers for timestamps, to prevent the 2106 incident
– a proper dev culture which supports builders and encourages them to use Bitcoin, as opposed to sending them to other networks just because some self-proclaimed Austrian economist thinks the system is already perfect
Bonus: a different mining algorithm that gives better chances to normal computer users to find blocks. If it's too insecure, use a Proof of Stake hybrid which rewards nodes that store the entire history of the chain and also hold more than 0.01 BTC.
