@petertoddbtc Faking as in padding with real transactions? People will think you mean it takes $1k to falsify a transaction lol

@fnxTX Yup, notably total tx fees hasn't been going up; easily could be just a bunch of CoinJoin mixing, low value txs, or fake pumping.

@petertoddbtc I like to point out that fake or real, the effect on the Bitcoin network is exactly the same. It's a trivial milestone.

@fnxTX Wake me up when we get angry reddit threads from Android Wallet/Multibit users trying to figure out how to set fees.

@petertoddbtc Haha. Well I rarely check r/bitcoin, it's all either negative, whiny bitcoiners or actual buttcoiners, and a blurry line btwn.

@petertoddbtc But I hear free vserver instances w/40 GB storage have begun crashing.

@fnxTX Funny to watch people suggesting the pruning patch; right now it turns off the full node bit so your not contributing to the network.

@petertoddbtc per day? $1K per day is pretty significant in cost.

@CameronRuggles People spend a lot more than that trying to pump coins on exchanges.

@petertoddbtc sure, but is it still doesn't seem all that wroth it. Price/volume, etc hasn't really changed from this
