If you want to put this info in DNS, then register an RR type for it,

so we would have something like:
IN HASHCASH "hcrv 0; hcsv 1;bits 30; vwin 5d"
how long would take to get a new RR type defined and propagated to all
of the name servers? I suspect it is quite awhile which is why folks
are overloading the TXT record. It's quick, it's easy, and it's there
*NOW* without political hassle.
notice the heavily unused resource records at the end of

The result of the duopoly that currently defines "competition" is that
