But the implication is that the price of each new bitcoin must be a fraction of the total runtime of computing power on the planet.<p>Let&#x27;s say all financial transactions now appear on the blockchain, and every ten minutes a new block is mined. 
And furthermore let&#x27;s say all the compute power of the world is on grid aka E3. And hiring the whole lot will take a credit card with 1 million dollars per ten minutes<p>To Dr Evil, The value of controlling that chain is immense. And he would be willing to pay half a million dollars to write his adjustments to the chain<p>The 25 bc handed over for that surely has to then be equal to that half million plus a tiny amount, otherwise Dr Evil will be willing to pay for half the worlds compute resources but good actors would not.<p>Can we then assign a rough value to Bc now? And is the distribution of assets fair?
