But if this is interesting, checkout https://instant.io which uses the webtorrent protocol.

But to be blunt, nothing can stop users from re-centralizing to the cheapest/fastest/easiest system regardless of how decentralized the protocol.

"..forbade the hoarding 'of gold or silver coin or bullion or currency', under penalty of $10,000 and/or up to five to ten years imprisonment. The main rationale behind the order was actually to remove the constraint on the Federal Reserve which prevented it from increasing the money supply during the depression"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gold_(Control)_Act,_1968

"Desai finally introduced the Gold Control Act, on 24 August 1968, which prohibited citizens from owning gold in the form of bars and coins. All existing holding of gold coins and bars had to be converted to jewellery and declared to the authorities. Goldsmiths were not allowed to own more than 100 gms of gold."

There are many reasons Bitcoin will not be the currency for daily transactions. Some of them are even technical. But, that is ok because it will be used as a store of value filling a need similar to gold. So I guess I'm agreeing with you. But it's taking people awhile to come to understand this subtle difference.

  Dictionary lookup, attribute lookup and list-index lookups are implemented with a dot notation:

  {{ my_dict.key }}
  {{ my_object.attribute }}
  {{ my_list.0 }}
  If a variable resolves to a callable, the 
  template system will call it with no 
  arguments and use its result instead of the callable.

  In [17]: a = {"a": 1, "items": {"b": {"c": {}}}}
    ...: a_box = Box(a)
    ...: a_box
    ...: 
  Out[17]: <Box: {'a': 1, 'items': {'b': {'c': {}}}}>

  In [18]: a_box
  Out[18]: <Box: {'a': 1, 'items': {'b': {'c': {}}}}>

  In [19]: a_box.items
  Out[19]: <function items>

  In [20]: a_box.a
  Out[20]: 1

EDIT: This came up because our JSON commonly uses `items` as a key for a list of items, which I expect to be at `a_dict['items']`, and it has nothing to do with python's `a_dict.items`.
