>Well well well, if it isn't one of the lead faggots called in to try and reframe the question.

i'm not trying to reframe the question, just tried to rephrase it in case it helped explain what he is asking.

what he asked is: "Would you like if the value of your precious metals depended on some mines in China staying operational? When Bitcoin was created, then there was no other possible way to secure the network."

in my opinion, this is equivalent to asking if you think it's a problem that mining is both achieving the distribution (pay for coins with spent electricity) and achieving network security. because if the network security goes away (e.g., because mining rewards are insufficient), then the stored value is at risk.
