I don't believe anyone is arguing otherwise. Miners with a larger =
fraction of the network hash rate, h/H, have a theoretical advantage, =
all other variables in the miner's profitability equation held constant. =

Dpinna originally claimed (unless I'm mistaken) that his paper showed =

total fees increased. This didn't seem unreasonable to me, although I =

Best regards,
Peter
