mircea_popescu: in what paralel universe does italy hold 2k tons of gold ?
mircea_popescu: upper bound by the finite carbon atoms count on earth :D
mircea_popescu: no, actually, that has to be countable.
mircea_popescu: hm
mircea_popescu: i tihnk the first rule of embezzle is that you can never know how much bezzle there is.

mircea_popescu: anyway, the guy does miss an impoirtant point : small companies can indeed opt out of patent trollage : they incorporate on mpex, as per bitcoin rules.
mircea_popescu: wrong incentive structure.
