There’s a CEO who can pressure Bitcoin Core devs? Is Bitcoin Core a company? Does that CEO control the salary of the devs or how does he/she pressure them?
Indeed, back during the block size debate when Bitcoin core devs were being pressured by obsessive performance-freak CEOs to degrade security for the sake of TPS, even these most careful & talented devs introduced security holes in the process of tweaking performance.https://twitter.com/IslandHunting/status/1093267364089602051 …

Wow did you miss some good drama that eventually resulted in Bitcoin Cash, SegWit, the thankfully DOA SegWIt2x ("fire the core developers"), etc.

Quick question: does the lack of anonymity of Bitcoin transactions concern you? As I think about it... if it's not anonymous seems like it could be tightly regulated. Thoughts on this topic?
-
Bitcoin has weak anonymity -- it doesn't depend on ID for its security or use. So it doesn't have such a dependency that would make it easy to regulate. It lacks strong anonymity, but as current ZCash woes demonstrate, that's hard to do, alas.

I do feel the Ethereum community owes you an apology for the way Vlad acted towards you. There is a very good reason there is a Szabo unit of ETH, this project would not exist without your unique intellectual contributions re: smart contracts, not even mentioning Bit gold.

Thanks, but he's not you and you don't have to apologize for him.

Lol... the truth tries to come out in so many ways, like a demon possessed, speaking tongues... It's like a fork on truth, only the immutable perfection of truth survives... Role on the day after the day after... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... tomorrow!!

Funny how in the end the original design always seem to shine through. TPS is a feature request that can be handled by code or hardware or combination of both. Batch txn processing is in the code from day 1. No security holes there. Layer 2 - holes for days. Balance needed

I have a better idea implement PoS and run ETH on Amazon Web Services. Stop calling it "blockchain".

@IslandHunting Hey@NickSzabo4, I spent some time thinking about PoS and came to the below conclusion. Is my understanding correct?pic.twitter.com/JdkaqUF52h
