And this means nothing. You can turn off your node as well. That is all you do. It does nothing at all to the network and nobody sees your protest. If a node makes a protest in the deep woods, nobody cares.... And no, full nodes are miners. Full nodes are ONLY miners

If you are not a miner, you are not BY definition a full node.

A user node influences nothing. Changes Nothing Alerts nothing impacts nothing.

aside from the Bitcoin whitepaper. do you have a detailed technical article which expound and prove this point? reason i ask is that
@adam3us and other Bitcoin evangelists insist that user nodes help secure the network. i’d love to see a debate on this.#Bitcoin#StoreOfDrama2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

The code... it is a good start Here is something. Debate means nothing. This is science and fact. It does or does not. That is testable empirically. Rhetoric, no value

so demonstrate the science and fact. and then reference it for everyone to see. this way, any attempt at rhetoric can be easily dispelled by a simple reference.

I have. The fact you seek to ignore what is clear and obvious is not my issue. I really do not care if many of the the BTC crowd are all enlightened. The simplest point is, non mining nodes do not up[date the network. The rest I have covered

the fact is that Bitcoin maximalists and evangelists have convinced practically everyone that non-mining nodes contribute in securing the network. the onus is on experts and people like you to prove them wrong with facts and science.

Or what? Let BTC persist with their geocentric-quality science. They will kill themselves off. Better to stay focused on moving forward with the heliocentric-quality of BCH and not get weighed down in an asymmetric debate:https://twitter.com/ziobrando/status/289635060758507521 …

there’s no “or what”. there’s just the fact that Bitcoin maximalists & evangelists who write books and do videos/podcasts have spread the information that running full (non-mining) nodes contribute in securing the network. ergo it becomes de facto “truth” unless debunked.
