A microsecond is really slow for networked supercomputers.

I don’t have the time, but state sponsored Intelligence Agencies do.

You’re pompous with your math and certainty. As I said, we’ll revisit.

Haha! Ok, sure. Perhaps Intelligence Agencies' supercomputers can decrease the collision time from 10^63 down to 10 trillion years. I'm sure they'll get right on that.

Yes, math has a way of being pompous and arrogant.

My last job for the USG was directed in a Cryptographic Services Branch under protest. That said, BTC and the hash are a point where the intersection is no longer in play.

Even if you could somehow create more BTC, there can be no more than 21 or 28M. Even if you could it would have to sync to the public history of BTC.

The entire point of BTC was to create a medium of exchange that would not be subject to the Governmental wheelborrow effect. Today, it is one asset without peer.

It is digital Gold.
