> expire fundamental nodes because you messed up..
Expiring fundamental nodes also seems like they don't understand the most valuable part of what they created. A massively distributed server system would cost a lot to purchase in the cloud. And people are bought in since they had to burn coins. Instead of expiring the FMNs they should make them do something useful, like running a decentralized exchange - which I thought is the whole purpose of this coin.
Yeah, with the rate of nodes going up they could have their own mini internet at this point. Don't they have like 1000 nodes or something or are pushing towards that and beyond DASH as a goal?
That's more nodes than exit nodes for the entire TOR network. At this point the network is more valuable than the currency.
Even if all of the nodes were crap 50 meg connections, times that by a grand and 50 gbps distributed global network rivals some smaller data centers. Something a project like LBRY would KILL to have. They aren't even close to having a backend that could compete.
I see around 760 nodes running most of the time.
