asciilifeform: meanwhile...
asciilifeform: they also live here.
asciilifeform: well not exactly. the folks on the other side of the fence get to eat phree, rather than pay.

asciilifeform: don't use it
asciilifeform: shinohai: i think the last one built for pogo ~actually leaks~.
asciilifeform: the ~existing~ therealbitcoin can run on pogo, yes, if you enable swapping. but just barely. and imho we don't need a thousand more 'just barely' nodes.
asciilifeform: (both discussed in the logs on several occasions)
asciilifeform: needs two things, 1) hard mempool limiter 2) block index cache moved to disk

asciilifeform: will be 2x next year
asciilifeform: 500k cardboard hovels in us suburbia are creations of inflation
