Not at all. And I don't have the need to humour you either. Few people have done as much to promote the fortunes of this project in creative ways as you have.


Fair enough. But all I'm saying is that neither lurkers nor trolls make for progress. I don't think Dash's designers were targeting speculative value, I suspect they were targeting actual adoption.

None of that adoption is going to come from bitcointalk readers. It's going to come from a need to connect supply to demand in lots of micro economies. So those micro economies are where you should be directing your attention, not nutcases who's only means of expression is a blow out on bitcointalk.

Sorry to keep coming back to it, but that proof of labour proposal showed the way forward.

People better go back and read it again until they get it into their heads that crypto is real money - not currency - and we're not going to get adoption from people buying sh*t with it. We're going to get adoption from a much more fundamental source - capitalisation of micro economies.

Those two guys understood that. We should too.
