Emin Gün SirerVerified account @el33th4xorThe argument presented in this thread, that "good things, like decentralization and scalability, are like energy, you cannot have more of one without giving up some of the other" is plain wrong. 1/n >>> https://twitter.com/hugohanoi/status/951762596255838209 …Show this thread2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -

Hugo Nguyen @hugohanoiReplying to @david_koops @TuurDemeesterLike I said, the mining hardware can be inefficient, and there’s room for improvement there (faster, generate less heat etc.). But the hashing operations themselves are 100% efficient for the purpose of protecting the ledger from being rewritten. One hash in, one hash out.1 reply 0 retweets 3 likes -
The whole thread is such hackneyed nonsense, it's not worth even taking it down in detail. It's the typical "that nerdy kid in the last row who didn't pay attention all semester because he thinks he figured it all out" stuff. I'm surprised Emin even bothered.
