>likely much less, if paid in BTC mined earlier).

You realize that bitcoin is money, right?

It's like saying "You can afford to sell me your house for $10k today, afterall you only bought it for $5k back in 1910".

When the BTC was spent at the time of the ETH crowdsale... the person doing the buying compared options of:

A) Selling BTC at prevailing prices

B) Doing nothing

C) Spending BTC on ETH at prevailing prices

Another analogy:

Because you bought a car today for 30k, funded by the 150 shares of AAPL you sold just now.... means you only realy paid 3k for that car because you bought AAPL shares cheaper in the 1990's.

I'm just pointing out the absurdity of the statement and the significant misunderstanding about the nature of capital.

Then going on to talk about the Gini coefficient as though it means anything at all seals the deal that you are out of your depth and just trying to sound smart
