But yeah you should totally call people POW fanboys lol, that's what's going on here.
OH yea, I forget, everyone who disagreed with you on here was a fanboy, but if someone else ...............................
I actually visited Andreas' twitter to see what he is about and found this link
https://t.co/OE7ZL8WAd1 Call me a fanboy of his now. lol.
Seriously, everyone has that weird assumption that POW = actual work. I cornered a guy once who is a big bitcoin fan and tried to find out why he can't consider POW wasteful. All they can do is meander down to some assumption that POW is necessary and the alternative is you get something for nothing.
They ignore the fact that networks/token/coin/currencies/stake/shares can have other values outside of being a currency. Devs/marketers will create the extra value. It will not be the guys buying mining equipment running numbers on some web ROI calculator bringing value to the network.
It is so funny how so many in the community hate fiat and demurrage, but with Bitcoin they find it completely acceptable.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, POW = anti-innovation at this point. It was and is a great thing, absolute genius but everything is refined.
