The above is really nice work in my opinion.  Thanks, bengamindees, for taking the time.

I'll look forward to StolfiCoin as a sidechain and would not hesitate to use it.  If his ideas are good and the offer the kinds of protections for individuals and need for the state that he promises, it will be successful.  If not it will fail.

I have no problem supporting the needs of the state if the state is supporting the needs of the people and will gladly do so.  When the needs of the people are not being served adequately and transparently by the state, I very much welcome other options.
