It will help to assume that there is at least one group of evil people who
are investing in Bitcon's demise. Not because there are, but because there
might be. So let's assume they are making a set of a billion transactions,
or a trillion, and maintaining currently-being-legitimately-used hashing

I am in favor of a more gradual (longer) period and a softforking
solution... that is, more than 30 days of grace period (some period
between 60 days and a year), ...
... and given the number of valid softforking proposals out there it

There's a large array of solutions that are bigger than the cheapest home
broadband, but smaller then renting hardware in a data center. Every
company with internet service to their location purchases one of these
options. If Bitcoin full node bandwidth requirements ever exceed a

Like he said, it isn't much about bitcoin. Our crypto is just one of the

That's all well and fine. But the pattern of your argument I would
say is "arguing security down" ie saying something is not secure
anyway, nothing is secure, everything could be hacked, so lets forget
that and give up, so that what is left is basically no

Yes, data-center operators are bound to follow laws, including NSLs
and gag orders. How about your ISP? Is it bound to follow laws,
