You explained it better than the dude... Were there debates? I wanna see two super knowledgeable dudes/dudettes debate it. I feel like that must've been more prevalent before I got here... I saw a debate between Voorhees (sp?) and someone and it was epic. Haven't seen one since...

The entire blockchain being a coinjoin is interesting. It actually hits pretty close to an idea I've had for bitcoin...

But this is actually what I'm saying - do the thing he said in the beginning where you merge it into bitcoin, but do it onto a hard fork. If its really so good, it will survive and win in the end. No bitcoiners can be mad because they get keys on that one too. Improve/attack bitcoin, either one is better than diverting into an altcoin.
