So much for a "decentralized" coin.

I appreciate the technical work, but images like these challenge my confidence in Bitcoin.

The ownership is distributed, you can buy a seat on the board today, and share in the profits. (The shares are publicly trained)

Who cares whether "ownership" is distributed? What matters to the long term viability of Bitcoin is whether a government or some other bad actor could take over one or a few mining operations to gain control of the network.

It is extremely unlikely and expensive to maintain 51% of the network.

AM isn't even 5th in terms of total network hashrate, so we can probably relax, though it would be large for a private mine. The big ones on the list are large pools.

Really cool post thanks op!

Great article, just wondering how do the blades not short out in water ? as usually if you put anything electrical submerged in water it will just brake.

I take it these are special designed blades that work underwater ?

It's not water, it's a "cooling fluid" made by 3M.

probably Fluorinert http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorinert

I think that coolant was mentioned a couple of times by DeathAndTexas (and was using that stuff too)

This is amazing.

Suggestion: in the future plan deployment and organize R&D around summer implementation so you can have full deployment in winter.

Also consider some industrial locations, most factories I visit in China are very cold in winter. And this cold also affects QC in production.

So partner with production facilities and use waste heat to improve factory conditions. This will actually increase productivity as people will prefer work to avoid cold.

Benefits could include rent discounts and reliable power, and distributed infrastructure.

It's a non-conductive liquid (or, much less likely, distilled water which isn't conductive either but has a 100C boiling point which this liquid doesn't seem to have).

Can't wait for the video, hopefully with sound. I would like to hear 1000s of blades bubbling in the ~~hot~~ hash tub.
