Sell at $320. Remember I told you all in May that rally was coming in June.
you say a lot of things.  A LOT of things.  You reply to yourself 20 times.  Your signal to noise ratio is frankly abysmally low.
it's zeroo.

His posts can be summarized with two bits of information:

00 = "The powers that be will enslave you all!"
01 = He makes a pessimistic comment that distracts from any progress currently being made in the thread
10 = He challenges someone to a boxing match
11 = "I am brilliant and will now leave this thread forever"


I now see full-node count as a red herring; the number of full nodes is dropping because we don't need that many full nodes…
You are forgetting propagation delay and the need for IBLT to deal with it...

Hey!  It looks like with my encoding scheme above we can implement an IBLT for your comments!!

Peter R upthread where we were discussing the 21 Inc economics it seemed you were open minded and rational.

Now you are acting like a shrill. Why?

I always respected you as being a engineer of some sorts (obvious sometimes from your use of math, etc). You of course must realize you've completely mischaracterized my posts. You don't like that I pointed out to you some potential game theory on IBLT and headroom in the block size. Okay. Why? You don't want to consider all the possibilities? You are premarried to a preferred conclusion. That is the antithesis of rationality.

Step back from the ledge...

Sorry to poke fun at you, but I couldn't resist.

I do believe that some of your comments contain interesting insight.  The most recent was your post here about how people who value their accomplishments more than their appraisal of their knowledge are often more pragmatic and balanced.  I had never thought about that, but think you might be right.  

However, here are some of my issues with your comments:

(a) you constantly make references to "TPTB" and attribute many events to conspiracy theories, without sufficient evidence.

(b) by posting voluminously on this thread in a way that distracts from the natural flow of conversation, I think you're being disrespectful.

(c) by constantly boasting about your intelligence and by making sexist and otherwise derogatory comments, you come across to me as both insecure and rude.

(d) by challenging people to fist fights, you're just being downright weird.

In summary, I think you are intelligent and have things to offer to the conversation, but I do wish you'd try to improve the delivery of your message.
