“Satoshi’s anonymity allowed Bitcoin to be a blank slate, enabling people to experiment with a variety of applications.” - @nathanielpopper
“If Marti Malmi had found a job in the summer of 2011, Bitcoin may not have survived.” - @nathanielpopper @pnpbitcoin
“For the first few years of its existence, Satoshi was desperate to get anyone interested in Bitcoin.” - @nathanielpopper @pnpbitcoin
@mdotfallon Every broadcast tx has a real (socialized) cost of bandwidth, CPU cycles, and disk space. I estimate > 6MB of disk & bandwidth.
Because txs may be used to secure the value of a contract or off-chain property, may some day see microtxs with huge fees as blocks fill up.
When analyzing microtxs on block chains, they shouldn’t be taken at face value. A tx sending a fraction of a cent could be worth $1M.
