The much bigger concern to me is the coin being stuck on very high difficulty.
thats the same im thinkning about... i wrote money, ment monday ditto.. we need a new retarget implementation ASAP. My money is on this guy jumping ship at retarget or soon thereafter. Then as soon as we drive it back down, he comes back and shoots it up to 100 Yup. This is what is so exploitable about "normal" diff calculation algos. KGW FTW!

I was looking at some of the comments to these kind of articles and the russian speakers said there was no ban, just bad reporting.

My money is on this guy jumping ship at retarget or soon thereafter. ...and that would be the "good" scenario (=being a big guy which hops around the most profitable cpu coin at any given point). The really bad scenario is that he stays around, which would perhaps hint at something totally different for achieving his hashrate, like offloading part of the algorithms in a GPGPU approach.

And I just learned how to use Azure  Ah sorry  Hey, just make sure you shut down your virtual machines so you can keep your $200, you have 27 days to use it! Don't leave them running! I'm not on trial anymore I pay as I go but I'm shutting them all off at retarget minus my home setup :\.. I'll be at a huge loss at that point

But remember, the poeple in charge of our current monetary system wont give up without a fight. They have been fighting for many years to keep us under the controll of their fiat bullshit. Basically we have to work to earn toiletpaper (dollar, euro, etc), meanwhile they can just print their own salary and buy whatever they want. A well working crypto currency is a stab right to the core of their power.

They could take control if they wanted just through huge BTC purchases with newly printed dollars. They're leaving it alone. I think there are other plans in the works for BTC.

The problem here is not that he will get a lot of coins, because he is only getting 10k-15k (with 3M+ coins out there this isn't much), the problem is the diff readjust algo, I'm really sure he will leave after diff changes, then it will take longer until next diff change. I think Kimoto Gravity Well is the way to go to avoid this, and better now that the coin is still young.
There is one additional problem. After having obtained a lot of coins, he will try to sell them. The offer of coins will be greater than the demand, so the price of the coin can drop quickly. short term, yes, long term, its not that many coins ..

Exactly, but mainly they can easily trace the transactions if they want to. That's a tight grip around the users, if they make it illegal they can start making busts to scare people of - hence the need for a darkcoin.

This difficulty/reward approach is definitely a good way to deter hog mining, it's hard to call how this is going to play out!

They don't need to print anything. The manipulation mechanism for BTC is through the news. One bad news report = investors offloading / Elite controllers buying low. If you repeat the cycle of rise and fall for like a few hundred times where you get like 3-5-10% differences (and there are cases where the drop is more impressive like from 1200 down to 700), it's just a matter of time before you end up with half the BTC supply in your hands. Control the political decisions & the news = control the market. And they are doing that alright because people are ignorant of the dynamics.

Is is possible you think for that hog miner to ditch at the last few blocks so he doesnt drive the diff up? then when the adjustment gets made he can come back in and mine more at continued low diff?
