Could you please elaborate on the concept of 'ethpow'? I've heard murmurs in the cryptocurrency community about this term but have yet to gain a clear understanding. Is it a new mining algorithm? A fork of Ethereum? Or perhaps a new cryptocurrency that aims to leverage the power of Ethereum's network? I'm interested in understanding the motivation behind it, its potential impact on the crypto market, and how it differs from other similar projects. Could you provide a concise yet comprehensive explanation of what ethpow is and what it aims to achieve?

Before the transition, Ethereum relied on miners solving complex mathematical problems to validate transactions and secure the network.
