        @tuurdemeester @konradsgraf plz read complete GS note. Overall conclusions much more balanced: B-protocol has potential, b-coins less so.

        @tuurdemeester @BenedictEvans How much of that is regulatory fees that we would almost certainly want/need to add back in?

        @tuurdemeester @BenedictEvans is GS offering to clear, remit, and sit counterparty to all BTC for 1%? Oh, ok, just checking, I thought not.

        @BenedictEvans @tuurdemeester Multiplying $ value of transactions x 1% is not exactly ‘dropping the bomb’. The bomb would making BTC usable.

        @tuurdemeester I still won't be using it. I like accountability and oversight as it relates to what banks are doing with my money.

        @Beautyon_ You didn't even address the BTC accountability and oversight problem. There is a problem with this now. BTC makes that prob worse
