Thanks, that's an interesting article. I think I understand what you
mean about BitCoin now, but I'm still not sure what you want to achieve
with regard to DHTs.

If you're modelling a DHT as a game then who are the players, what are
the possible strategies, what are the payoffs, how much do the players
know about each other's strategies and payoffs, and what strategy do you
want to encourage?

Cheers,
Michael
