Fri Mar 04 21:21:05 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> (yes i'm aware that the above example allows no payments other than in multiples of 50 btc for a while, then multiples of 25, and EVENTUALLY in sasothis. MIND YOU that this is a feature and what you are using now a bug - da fuck do you do when the coinbase is split up in all the satoshis it could be ? ha ? oh, "works for you as it is" ? ty.)
Fri Mar 04 21:19:46 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> they don't have to be.
Fri Mar 04 21:19:30 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> for instance (and plox, before we run off with it - example only!) : if every tx was defined as "only 1 input - only 1 output" and if you wanted to make a larger payment youy'd have to make MULTIPLE txn, then a) the protocol would actually make a lot more sense, atomicity-wise and b) you wouldn't have the problems jurov describes. because pay x to y with fee z would exist EXACTLY one way.

Fri Mar 04 21:15:52 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> anyway, back to the issue. having nodes discard dupes is in principle stupid ; having nodes discard dupes on a first-seen basis is entirely warantless ; trying to run an implementation of this design will run into problems.
Fri Mar 04 21:14:26 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> war is the thing that happens when idiots fucked up the design.

Fri Mar 04 21:13:19 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> the expectation you'll fix broken protocol sociall is inept.
