Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Which one is it then? Cap or no cap?
Do you oppose central control or do you not?
Personally, I think that sufficient incentives exist that the network of miners could be self governing wrt max_block_size.
Realistically, I'll take a half measure to help assuage the doubts of the fearful.
Alright. Let me jump in with my favorite analogy then.
Seeing as we love all things free market then let me ask: are you of the opinion that the network of logging companies & cattle farmers should be left to self-governance in regards to how much of the Amazon rain forest they can cut?
Sounds like we need a strong military with lots of guns to point at them. And maybe Beefstream could get involved with setting production quotas. (While marketing their tasty soy, pea protein, alternative.)
I know it will upset stolfi to hear, he may even tell me to burn in hell, but land owners should be free to destroy/nurture/defile/build and grow/harvest their own property as they choose.
Now returning to your regularly scheduled chartbuddy streak.
Land owners?
Surely you are not proposing these companies are legitimate owners of all this rain forest they are cutting down.
Anyway, I see you didn't quite get the idea I was attempting to get through to you.
How about big game hunters? No reason we should enforce laws about this right? I'm guessing you are fine with them self-governing the hunting of endangered species?
