you answer your own question so well that i wonder if u were trying to get me to further articulate on a point you agreed with while feigning ignorance

Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of bitcoins is carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin is open-source; its design is public, nobody owns or controls Bitcoin and everyone can take part. Through many of its unique properties, Bitcoin allows exciting uses that could not be covered by any previous payment system. it is a internationally traded currency whos current exchange rate is...
1 bitcoin = ~$1050 american dollars

i use this example to show how p2p technology can be used on a massive scale, in sync, without the threat of client manipulations. in the end all software is files and systems. this is an example of using p2p to successfully host dynamic files and systems on client hardware. to put it into your own words, consider the ddo player database as "transactions" as items abilities and variables alter the end result that is your character. consider the movement of you and your peers in ddo maps as transactions as well. effectively you have a defined space, defined entities, and defined inputs. its another set of "transactions" to tell each client where to place the graphical representation of you and your actions in real time. consider your own interaction with the game. as you press keys, your computer outputs and relays data to a server to inform it of your actions, so that other clients can then visualize a representation of this. everything in DDO is "transactions". and the bitcoin system seems to have eradicated the concept of exploiting, otherwise i doubt the value of a single bitcoin would literally outweigh the value of 1000 american dollars

that is why i am making bitcoin comparisons

in the example quoted the server referenced is the one in boston that hosts DDO

what do you mean when you say "if it made sense"
