Interesting.
1. How do you know who was first? If one node can figure out where
more transactions happen he can gain an advantage by being closer to
him. Mining would not be fair.
2. A merchant wants to cause block number 1 million to effectively
have a minting fee of 50BTC. - why should he do
Yeah, but increasing block-size is not a longterm solution. Necessary
higher fees are a logical consequence of lower subsidies. Bitcoin was
basically free to use at the beginning because miners got paid with
new coins at the expense of those who already hold coins. Eventually
there needs to be a
The size limit is an economic policy lever that needs to be
transitioned -away- from software and software developers, to the free
market.
Exactly right. Bitcoin does not have a free market for fee though, and
literally all the discussion so far has neglected some fundamental
aspect of this, as
This is a misguided idea, to say the least. If such a mechanism of of
user input would be possible, one would use it for transaction
verification in the first place. In proof-of-stake outcomes are
determined by vote by stake (that vote has very different
characteristics than vote by compute

For me, everyone signed up to bitcoin thinking that there was a 1MB /

extremely uncontroversial to remove.
This. Software behavior which is not described
I believe a better solution would to use a gitlab clone such as gitlab,
which sits on top of the git repo, and allows for custom code around the
BIP process. Potentially one could even build Bitcoin into such a BIP
system. If somebody wants to support a BIP he donates Bitcoins to that
proposal.

Interesting. I think the original BitDNS discussion was more interesting
that what currently is happening with namecoin, see

Satoshi said there: 1) IP records don't need to be in the chain, just do

luke, you might enjoy the book Topos of Music. It's a complete
mathematical music theory by a student of Grothendieck. He advanced
Euler's theories of harmony based on advanced category theory. I'm
sure there are many applications to Bitcoin.
