        @NickSzabo4 @drwasho @bitstein @JustusRanvier That's a false premise. You're implying miners won't ultimately demand market-clearing fees.

        @robustus @drwasho @bitstein Miners can't demand anything with no turnstyles (block size limits) preventing customers from taking free.

        @NickSzabo4 @drwasho @bitstein Why can't miners simply not include transactions below a certain fee/kb? Up to them to price rationally.

        @drwasho @NickSzabo4 Mike is a Google engineer. He specializes in centralization. Should’ve stuck with Google Pay.

        @drwasho @NickSzabo4 It’s a spectrum, the more the merrier. Decentralization is hard as is, should be max possible.

        @taoeffect @NickSzabo4 How do we quantify if XT fails at decentralisation? Massive drop off in # of nodes? That's already happened w/ Core.

        @drwasho @NickSzabo4 Its exponentially increasing block limit is enough to consider it a failure, especially since it’s unnecessary.
