woah i missed this entire post two years ago!! Jstpst's deep technical knowledge is something I appreciate so I'm reading this now.

I really appreciate this deep-dive and I am sorry it took me literally 2.5 years to read it. I appreciate that you somehow could prognosticate what I did and did not already know (51%, halting problem, etc).

The big thing is that I honestly didn't know that ETH requires every EVM computation to be run on every node. That does seem wildly frustrating.

I can't imagine a use I'd have for Burner Machine, unless I was an especially cool journalist.

I have nothing to add but I really appreciate this post
