I was always dispirited by how conservative in sentiment Bitcoin and most altcoins were. It always felt to me that Bitcoin was mostly redundant to gold, neglecting the inherent advantages of ecurrency. Something more ambitious deserves to be implemented.

That endorsement aside, the inhibition transaction does disturb me. It would seem to encourage mob-like behavior in the culture of early adopters, as heretics of whatever sort were forcibly ejected from the system. I don't trust the dynamics of groups enough to think this will be a good form of self government.
