The cruel thing about blockchain economics is that it's not for Gain, nor for any of his friends to decide about sizes of the blocks.
It's the mining,  that he doesn't care of.

So I just wonder what is in this guy's head when he assumes that miners actually care about him and his opinion on a size of their blocks? Who is he actually speaking to with poems like this and what is a point of this?


People who understand the problem  know that the key to make bitcoin really scalable and keeping transactions cheap  is adding a layer of off-chain  transactions on top of the existing protocol.
Even Gavin knows that - but apparently he prefers to have been spending the past two years of his life on developing an 'intelligent' fee discovery system and writing papers on why the blocks must be bigger.

And don't worry - he won't mind me saying it,  I'm on his ignore list.
