And that's not the real issue. The real issue is that - if you're not willing to part with less than a half-bitcoin in order to run a fully-validating, non-mining wallet, your so-called 'contribution' to Bitcoin network security is a net negative. Fuck right off.

crippling the Bitcoin network. Your so-called 'contribution' to Bitcoin network security is a net negative.
Leave this forum and Bitcoin,
Fuck right off.
