We don&#39;t seem able to communicate with each other&#xA;efficiently, probably my fault since English is not my native language. But&#xA;I don&#39;t want to use more of my time (or yours) in this discussion, since&#xA;it&#39;s clearly unproductive.&#xA;On Jul 28, 2015 6:45 PM, &#34;Tom Harding&#34; &lt;tomh at thinlink.com&gt; wrote:&#xA;&#xA;&gt; Jorge,&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; We obviously disagree fundamentally on the role of societal adoption, in&#xA;&gt; the system that Satoshi designed.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Adoption is well ahead of Satoshi&#39;s schedule, and the measure of this is&#xA;&gt; the exchange rate.  It is at once an imperfect measure, and one of the most&#xA;&gt; perfect markets that has ever existed.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; As long as hardware, electric power, and bandwidth are priced in fiat&#xA;&gt; currency, the exchange rate is a critical variable to security, capacity,&#xA;&gt; and other metrics of network health.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; It&#39;s not inconsistent that you consider the exchange rate irrelevant.  In&#xA;&gt; fact it explains why you believe that Satoshi&#39;s timetable for transitioning&#xA;&gt; to fee incentives can be summarily tossed aside and replaced with something&#xA;&gt; you think is better.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Here&#39;s an English saying I just invented.  A bunch of geniuses can do a&#xA;&gt; lot more damage than one fool.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt;&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20150728/c22de55e/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
