That would be some serious whale action to be able to move a market that big or maybe it was butterfly wings...

I thought the simplicity argument was self-evident and shouldn't need anyone to explain it! Somebody gotta try and cut through the crapflood though. I've tried really hard to try and see the opposing POV but I come up short every time, and I think that's because I can't understand the philosophy behind making BTC some elitist tool when it seemed right from the outset that it was anything but.

If that makes me part of the "free-shit" army, then so be it. I'm not (yet) so morally bankrupt that I think that my well being can only come at the expense of others. That's what cripplecoin sounds like, thats why I don't want any part of it.
