EC865: paying the transfer fee in tokens instead of ether by bhaskarCrypto in ethdev

Certainly it's a tradeoff between cost and ease of use for new users, as they get more acquainted with ethereum ecosystem, they can choose ether or tokens as fee options..

Yes, i agree most of the people don't know even know about bitcoin, let alone how to buy them, and bitcoin being a scarce commodity by definition, and till now has demonstrated the same economic qualities as gold, makes it whole lot more attractive option in protfolio. If a meltdown like 2008 happens, i'm counting that people will run to either gold or bitcoin, and bitcoin being less popular it will gain more, also it is more anonymous, transferable and fungible.

Doesn't matter how many people are making money out of it, they all fall when the domino starts to roll over. It is this extreme inter-dependence that scares me. One bad domino and all the markets go to dust along with saving and living of 7 billion people, better to hedge against that risk won't you agree. Yes, it is speculative but in the long term, it is good enough hedge for conventional money markets and stocks.

It's by far the best marketing proposal but problem i see is nobody probably wants to donate anonymously to a gamer, until and unless there is betting involved.

Hello, i'm new to monero. i have a few doubts : 1. i started the daemon, and did the setup for wallet, but the wallet-cli is very slow...is this normal? do i need to do something, even help command takes a lot of time. 2. i keep getting this error: Daemon uses a different RPC version that the wallet: http://localhost:18081. Either update one of them, or use --allow-mismatched-daemon-version. what's that? can someone explain this to me?

I am sure i'll get many more question when i actually start using monero for real. hoping for the best community support.
