MJR_: http is a protocol, i can write a browser to use that protocol
ThickAsThieves: i'll stop
ThickAsThieves: mainly i was saying that devs have ability to ruin bitcoin
iz: i think your idea of a "perfect decentralized system" doesn't exist really
ThickAsThieves: i can find holes in any example that comes to mindf
ThickAsThieves: i suppose
iz: er.. bittorrent, i mean
ThickAsThieves: i see it as
MJR_: last i checked they didn't come to your house and install it without your consent
MJR_: no...that is like saying that since I can vote in elections I control who is president of the US
MJR_: and if everyone decides to go in one direction, i can mine my own forked chain and have my own little world...or i can go with the majority
MJR_: i can ask, suggest, beg, demand...but i can't FORCE
ThickAsThieves: i had no say
MJR_: but seriuosly, if i control it, i can say "i want more than 21 million" or "you can't use it on silk road"

MJR_: i can use cash on ebay
MJR_: i seriously don't get it
MJR_: ThickAsThieves: i agree...but theoretically if they wanted to, it'd be a waste of time
MJR_: so maybe some will choose that, but i think you combine the technical difficulty of bitcoin with the centralization and control of the current system
MJR_: i think more will leave it
