Btw just to throw my opinion out there...
I agree that you should only release lite wallets for windows, because of the issue with windows not being able to correctly sync the time- which is not an issue with crypti but with windows. I'm curious though, does anybody know how quick a blocktime you can have before running into this problem? 10 sec is obvs too quick, but what about 20s or 30s? Would having the minimum blocktime capable of preventing this problem be possible if it is only a bit slower than the current blocktime? Might be worth the sacrifice in transaction time.
Also, I agree that there will need to be more incentive to setup a full node or else we will be left with only the 101 active delegates and perhaps a few extra. I don't know how much of a problem that would actually be (if at all), but I think it is inevitable if there is no incentive for inactive delegates (especially once the 101 active delegates have become so entrenched with so many votes and high uptime % that it seems impossible to make it into the active 101 for somebody setting up a new delegate).
We have projects in the works that take advantage of the 10s block times. Things like games being created to utilize the Crypti smart contracts would suffer from longer block times and confirmations. We aren't going to change our system from being one of the fastest in the industry and completely capable of working perfectly as long as people wanting to be delegates follow the recommended hardware specifications just to appease our #1 favorite troll (Starik).
If you want to run on windows, then you just don't need to be a delegate. You can run the lite wallet and still do anything you want to outside of being a delegate. Asking us to support and put time into building a client so home users can run the network on their crappy laptops is nonsensical. You would never ask Netflix to run their service off your laptop (and if you did, everyone's Netflix experience would be terrible).
Also, building in incentives for people to run nodes is outdated thinking and not necessary. It's an antiquated model based on the greed of the Crypto Currency pioneers and miners. People will be running real services and business on top of the Crypti Blockchain and they will want to run a full node to interface with the network and call the APIs. The $20 a month service fee to run the server will be chump change to them and they won't care about transaction fees and we will want to vote them in because their business depends on the security of the network and they wouldn't do anything to harm it.
Please try to look at the bigger picture and see how all of the pieces fit together.
Also, standby nodes will be able to register to be used for other purposes that will provide compensation in the form of fees from those utilizing them as a resource. This will be explained much more in detail when we are ready.
