Again, your logic fails....The vast majority of users on this forum own not even 1 btc according to some polls conducted here. The vast majority of those involved with cryptocurrencies do not mine coins( if looking at the top bitcoin pools give any reasonable #'s of those mining), but it seems like you would expect the opposite since this is a bitcoin forum correct? Your entire argument is wrong...

You write words and sentences but when put together they don't make sense. If you don't know what to say you don't have to, you can just not post.

Let's recap what you've said.

So far you've said that we need to look at the stats of the % of cryptocurrency miners that use Linux. I responded by saying there is no study done on the % of cryptocurrency miners that use Linux, and the next best source to look at is the overall # of users that users Linux worldwide, to which that number is around 1%, with over 90% of all operating systems used on desktops, laptops, netbooks, being Windows.

Just like going to a power lifting forum thinking a statistic that 1% of the population can bench their own weight has any relevance there.

When it comes to the nodes listed by turtles83, you had the same illogical pattern of reasoning. You asked irrelevant questions of whether there were other nodes, etc, to which I replied that until another source comes forth to compare against turtles83 documentation, then having those questions is useless.

You must be trolling...or very...illogical. Take a coffee break.

Just like going to McDonald's on Thursday and seeing 10 people and thinking those were the only people eating there the whole week.

At best, you're proving that fair distribution is neither provable or not provable with current facts--which leads one (at least if they're thinking) to wonder if they should trust the dev who says he accidentally mined over 35% of the current distribution in a couple days or the guy trying to fit together the most likely scenario based on what little facts are available. And if you don't trust either, you'll sit on the sidelines until more facts can be gathered (again, if you're thinking).

Sorry, but I'm not trying to prove anything. Just debunking the "proof" someone with an agenda has pieced together.

Also, do you have to follow KYC rules if your a masternode operator--no one from Dash will comment on that for me. Seems kind of pertinent with what's going on with Ripple and all. Off topic, I know, but seems like that door was opened the first time someone yelled Monero.

If a "customer" of a masternode actually paid to a masternode for its service, sent coins to it, and received coins of some other currency back, then I guess masternodes located in some countries might have to. But none of that is happening, so my guess is "no".
