Older blocks have latencies in the millions... Maybe for those you can just list 'n/a'

the equivalent of USD-IOUs trading on BTSX from a trusted source like Bitstamp. 

What do you mean by this? Care to elaborate?

This is actually to combat a 'best script' from dominating all the delegates feeds. Consider this:

1. Feed sources (e.g. exchanges, which are limited in number, less than 101) are made readily available for delegates through individual scripts. These scripts' sole purpose is to query whatever server the source comes from, and return a number (or set of numbers: price, bid, ask, order book, volume, etc.). Each currency pair at each feed source would have a script. The hash of each script is stored on the blockchain. These can be updated. (By delegate votes? delegate-voted developers?)

2. a 'feed maintenance' script which periodically tests all the scripts and through logic, and determines if any of the exchanges are being manipulated and/or giving false results. The hash of this script is stored on the blockchain, can be updated etc.

3. a 'feed distribution' script which through logic and quality checks (possibly using more than just the price, e.g. volume, spread) determines the best way to weigh the feeds. The hash of this script is stored on the blockchain, can be updated etc.

4. The delegate can choose a percentage of how much to trust this script, against his own manual feeds or private custom script, 0% - 100%. This number is public Using the 'feed maintenance' script, 'feed distribution' script, and optionally his own feeds, the delegate now is serving all the feeds required.

The current system promotes laziness in the delegates, as all they have to do is download the latest and greatest feed script and fire away. And I don't blame them, that's probably the best way to do things right now. It just makes for weak feed security, due to lack of diversity.

Besides of easy maintenance for delegates, the purpose of this is maintainable transparency, where shareholders can see everything that is happening and can feel more secure in the system.

They made some masterpiece albums like 'OK computer'.

My #1 favorite album of all time...

I think Radiohead or U2 would be interested in something like PeerTracks.

fussyhands, can you please send a link that backs up the facts you are supporting? I tried googling your suggested search term, and all I can find are things that say gold actually has stable buying power. I'm open to the possibility that they are all misguided, however your suggestion for research is not proving effective.

If BM and the dev team really don't want account transferring, perhaps they could implement an 'account burn' feature, which allows you to permanently disable an account from sending/receiving/transacting. Any person attempting to send this account funds would get their funds sent back, with the memo that the account burner used in their burn transaction.

On second thought, maybe the memo feature would be too useful to an account hacker, eg "btercom has a new address, please send funds to xxblademasterxx for all future deposits instead."

I'd like some too please
