He mentions how activity on the network directly leads to the network forming as it should.

YES. This is starting now... And it's great! I love watching it work in real time.

Nodes that aren't being paid to mine are doing nothing useful.

^ Almost... They could be consuming the chain to provide value.

But then, is that really a node? :)

This is a semantic issue many have... It's important to still bridge that semantic gap.

Talking about the efficiency in terms of resources used...

This is how economies actually work. It's not all about dollars! Good for Shadders to be talking in these terms.

I'm getting that this portion of his talk is an attempt to describe how the Mandala network forms, in terms of miners/nodes vs SPV... The physical network level.

And all of this is spontaneous order. Market level, not design, as he says.

Shadders calling out the BitcoinSV team. Getting them on stage.

Decent sized team. Low quality picture on the screen I'm paused on, but I count 17, not including Shadders? Not bad.

I think that was a good move, though I know people don't like it.

We need to celebrate the builders. The people who are in the weeds, getting the thing done. How else will we encourage more of this?
