You seemed to me to be somewhat defensive and reactionary. Are you upset that Nxt and Bitshares are losing ground and dying?
Because I like a good discussion it grinds my gears if someone pretends to engage in one, and then doesn't do the most minimal diligence - not even spending 2 seconds thinking. Posting links and completely misrepresenting what they say. It's disrespectful.
Or this stuff:
It was coin distribution based upon the ICO.
... which would take about 5 seconds to verify. It's public info (in fact in the blockchain) and 3rd grade math. No user could have had close to 10% of the stake.
Buying one or two forging pools and one mining facility should totally do the job. I don't see how I miss costs there... those likely run profitable or close to.
Note how for a state actor all this would be in fact easy, undetectable - and basically free.
States are porous and leak secrets all the time. Most people in IT knew of the Snowden revelations years before he became a whistleblower.
...or diverting into completely unrelated topics, ignoring the issue.
The paper you linked doesn't say that. In the blog links you posted he doesn't say that. You're chasing me in circles with your fake references. I'll end responding.
In fact most your links say: he leans towards POS (which checkpoints of several months of age), which you don't want to explain. You're not living up to your own standards.
I will concede he changes his mind often
Or concessions like that.
