Re: [ANN][DASH] Dash | First Anonymous Coin | Inventor of X11, DGW, Darksend and InstantX
What several of us are reporting (I think) is that the BTC client has become very weak when it has to catch up. It is well-behaved once it is in sync, but it has become tempting to leave any BTC wallet "hot" or to stop using it altogether. Ouch!
I compare it to downloading a torrent movie, everyone wants to leech and no one wants to seed, no incentive and if the client is using too many resources this will mean less peers for full clients, only SPV wallets will remain.Yup - the original Napster had that problem too back when it was going to Change the World Forever and give music back to the people without giving anything to the musicians. Chilling parallel, come to think of it, at least in part.
Hmmn. SPV for the little guys and increasingly centralized full-feature BTC wallets "to secure the network", eventually leading, I speculate, right back to some version of Greenspan/Bernanke/Yellen. Fiatcoin is not my idea of progress, and I hope they fix BTC soonish, but even if they don't, DASH is looking very robust. Evolution is a bitch (I hope).
Memo to self: stop blabbing and get another MN.
