And perhaps I should clarify: most of the people who voted in favor of the size increase in this thread's poll are probably not running a full node; most of the people who voted against the size increase probably are. I'm just pulling those numbers out of my ass, and it would probably be considered a
bad bet anyway.
I run a full node. Those who votes in favor of the size increase actually uses the blockchain directly, and the reason for them doing so is to not have to pass through a central gatekeeper like Paymium in the first place.
... if you're pulling numbers out of your ass, and reality shows you a different number, then you're wrong. Clear and simple.
My goal is strictly to tell the truth, no matter how offensive it may be.
Correction,
your goal is to tell what you believe is the truth, whether that aligns with The Truth or not is a different matter.
