Thanks! This really helps me find the math error in my analysis. I was missing the storks.
so we just need to wait stork number of blocks and that will be the optimal for mountain climbing.
I guess you think satoshi was an idiot too, as he said something about 10 blocks. Or was he committing fraud or whatever this crockpottery is.
ad hominem attacks vs. historical results with some actual math
And what exactly is this fraud you imply I am conducting? That using a hard coded lookup table (generated from p2p network and validated) instead of a DB is more efficient. Is that my supposed fraud?

I don't know. What I do know is that fraudster and gangsters (more generally common criminals) have exceptional sensitivity to being given "no respect" (cue Marlon Brando in The Godfather). Of course, correlation is not causation. But see how DeathAndTaxes reacted to the mention of money orders in 2012. I think that even he didn't know at that time what scam he's going to pull of years later.

Again, time will show.
