Does anyone here think the original creator(s) of BitCoin ever forsaw this happening?
If not, how do you think they feel about it?

I, for one, welcome our new miner overlords.

This is the beginning of the end for bitcoins. Those who control the mining control the coins.

They don't control mine.

They control the transactions that you might want to make with your bitcoins.

Now for a picture to help you feel better:

Seriously though, we need to get this tech into the hands of the rest of the community ASAP.

Did you really intend to hotlink a hotlinking notice?

And no miners do not control my transactions, because all that they can do is refuse to process them, and there are thousands of others who will not.
