    It's a complete solution. There's no downside at all to adopting it. You don't have to change bitcoins proof of work. You don't have to ruin Satoshi's vision, but the maximalists are so radical that they can't even understand that zero trade off things are awesome for your ecosystem. So Pushki is a brilliant engineer and he's capable of reading scientific papers and translating them. He's a great research transfer.

    That's the great, inconvenient truth of cryptocurrencies is they call truth the power. They're faceless, whether I'm here or not, whether Satoshi's here or not, Vitalik’s here or not Gavin’s here or not, doesn't really matter.

    I don't know what kind of a human being thinks this way or approaches life this way, or builds legitimacy by lying and saying is Satoshi, but there's certainly some people who follow them and the fact that they welcomed him into the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem with open arms, you know, say hey, we have Satoshi, look how smart we are and we have the best people.

    Steal people's money or you haven't biased it in some way where you can skim off the top. OK, so that's just a standard and it's a standard we've had since the very beginning. Satoshi didn't release some closed binaries of Bitcoin and say, trust me. The code was right out there, and people could see it read it. And that's how cryptography is done, and that's how good wallets are done so, it's incredibly important for Yoroi to be open source for people see the source code...

    Remember, not too long ago, about 10 years ago, it was very easy to shut down the Bitcoin network, you just simply could shut down Satoshi's single mining node and the network would die, so networks that people use in in our environment tend to become more resilient over time.

    In the original version of our protocol, Ouroboros, we follow a protocol called "follow the Satoshi." We've made some slight adjustments to that for subsequent versions. The principle remains that if you own 25% of the supply, you should be elected 25% of the time or delegate that authority to someone else to create the next block.

    That's one of the reasons why Satoshi limited Bitcoin script.

    So Satoshi very wisely said a longer block interval 10 minutes because it really lowers the chance of orphan blocks.

    That was the greatest lesson I think Satoshi gave us.

    Second, did he even bother to take a look at the other things that we've done, like, for example, does he know how to build a UTXO wallet? Well, he forked Bitcoin. Satoshi came up with that. Did he? Well, we didn't know how to build one. So we figured it out. And we wrote a formal specification for those things.
