Yeah. I am still unsure that this really holds. Bitcoin moves fast, but even so, unless there are a few more SatoshiDice-like events and the way people use transactions changes dramatically we're a long way from gigabyte sized blocks. And once we get there, technology will probably have improved to the point where it doesn't seem like a big deal anymore. Of course we have debated this many times already. Maybe again at the next meetup :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
