Tor's got a structure that makes running fake Tor nodes not quite as trivial as it sounds. Remember that Tor node operators are not anonymous, and Tor on the other hand is a semi-centralized service.
Sigh. Apparently I have to add you to my list of people who don't read, too? Quoting from my first post on this thread:
In a public forum you write stuff for
other people to read as well as the person you are replying too.
The code for fee estimation is being implemented right now, so if you have something better now would be the time to build a convincing prototype.
Note how Gavin's backed off of his original pull-req in favor of something significantly more cautious, almost identical to what I argued should be done re: estimation. As for replacement itself, I've got higher impact priorities right now - someone else will probably do it for me. (incidentally, there's a IIRC $5,000 bounty for it)
I started writing a response to the trolling and self-congratulatory garbage that followed after this part of your post, then thought better of it. Actions speak louder than words, don't they?
You'd be wise to calm down and think a little harder about what I wrote there.
