It's easy and fun to look at things in hindsight, but know that you don't bet the farm on every opportunity because most do not pan out. This one did....
I'm smart enough and experienced enough to know that an opportunity like this won't come along again in my lifetime. This is the asymmetrical bet of the century. But I'm also saying this: If I had to start all over from zero and put the same amount into Bitcoin today, I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. People that think they are too late have no idea just how wrong they are. Whatever lightfoot's comments, I do get the sense that you are more than half morphing in your thinking Torque. You seem to be a whole hell-of-a lot more bullish (also, quite more than half, perhaps greater than 2/3rds) today than you were, even one year ago. I am even beginning to feel a bit more conservative than you... holly fuck!!!! Don't you recall that less than a year ago, I was talking about an exponential s-curve and all that kind of bullshit, and I was not even sure if I believed it myself, and you were much more conservative than me (certainly more than half on this one), saying that it was not going to happen (that's a zero percent there, and even maybe an exaggeration) and blah blah blah.. and now it seem that the market has been performing much beyond my expectations (like 99.9999%-ish give or take a few digits), but you have transformed from being more bearish than me to being more bullish than me... Am I not right? Edits above per request and to cause greater validity and underlined to cause greater clarity.

Am I not right? No % in your post. Argument invalid. Since I am in more than a cooperative spirit, especially given that currently, the BTC price performance seems to have more than 3x exceeded my expectations of perhaps floating in the $3k to $5k price arena throughout 2017, therefore, I went back and I edited my original post, per your assertion - however, I have an inclination that you are in an error predicament regarding my alleged earlier failure to incorporate percentages within my claims of Torque's more bullish transformation, because I will assert that the very last sentence of the above big paragraph has an implied percentage contained therein. Above, I have bolded such implied percentages sentence for you to more easily identify it and perhaps to read such clauses over and over in order to imbibe and transform your own selfie into the implied percentages contained therein. ;)hahahahahahaha You are welcome. By the way, I hope that you had enuff of a "vacation from the WO thread" that you are going to be able to tolerate us for a wwwwweeeeeee bit?

I have some ideas about what could be better, but I will plead innocent, and change my answer to "no, I don't know," could you enlighten the readers of the WO to such "better"?

I'm getting pretty tired of all this failure.
goodgoodletthehateflowthroughyou.png 'All this failure' is the result of giving people what they do not want (because 'we' know better than you what you should want). The only thing happening on that blockchain is a bunch of trading back and forth. No one uses it, no one cares. You've lost me - what blockchain are you referring to?

So here is the deal, and I'm only going to say this once.
We will implement a larger blocksize patch when AND NOT BEFORE you fuckers stop trying to bully us into it.
<blather>
as long as we feel we are being pushed NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN!
Haha. There is something happening. Sorry you can't see it. You are blinded by your hate (goodgoodletthehateflowthroughyou.png). The longer you rail against others that hold you no ill will, the smaller the chance that you see it before it is too late for you to do anything about it.

Y'all realizer yer fabled LN can't scale to Visa levels without a huge block size increase, right?
