... The alternative is to implement Transparent Mining and try to handle people imperfection. The latter can't be done with pure math and even if you manage to find some laws you can't be sure that these laws won't change in the future. BCNext went for good, he doesn't feel himself responsible for the future of Nxt, he implemented an idea that was obvious but noone tried to do it (maybe because creation of a Bitcoin clone was much easier)...
Can someone explain, for an apparent dummy, how exactly we as a community have chosen poorly to make BCNext want to bail on us? Was he planning on bailing all along? Is ther other things he was goign to tell us how to do that we will no never know? What choices were we given where we apparently chose wrong? Were we expected to come up with the solution for full TF ourselves? Did BCNext give us all the tools we needed, and yet we still failed?
Is this about the fees thing? Had we chosen .01 or .001 for fees would he have still bailed?
