So just wondering the cost to get something like bitpay off the ground. Just a payment processor with an API and what not. Im not a dev, so Im not sure what it would take. I know bitpay had raised about 1 million by the time they were up and running really. But that was a few years ago now, and this kind of thing has come a long way. Like exchange scripts...anything like that out yet?
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Well, if the health site ran by the Gov't cost 500 million dollars or so, Im sure a well developed database would only cost a fraction of that.. 2 or 3 million would be my guess to get one off the ground..
