Miners&#39; immediate&#xA;&gt; incentive to attack honest pools is much reduced.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&#xA;I&#39;m OK with burning actually. The total amount of coins in the system&#xA;essentially defines its maximum price resolution. Ideally we&#39;d not lose&#xA;resolution, but it&#39;s less important than having a system that does actually&#xA;work. Moreover, this sort of system is like double spending defence itself&#xA;- if it does work, it doesn&#39;t need to actually be done very frequently&#xA;because people know the safeguards work and don&#39;t try. So in practice total&#xA;loss of resolution should be limited.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;&gt; 2. BitUndo gets paid using additional txouts in the double-spend&#xA;&gt; transaction, no by miner&#39;s fees.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;Right. It&#39;s indeed an assumption that block rewards matter to miners, even&#xA;the ones that have double spend revenues.&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20140423/53570a01/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
