What stops him from doing it is the complete lack of infrastructure. Right now anyone in the world can connect to a node and request certain pieces of data. This creates an open a free system which has a lot of advantages.
Once we start forcing people to log-in to nodes and set them up with accounts that track bandwidth... things can get needlessly overcomplicated quite quickly.
Luckily as soon as one person creates such a system it can be downloaded, cloned, and forked by anyone because this is an open source ecosystem. One one person needs to make a working model for everyone to benefit. I will admit that creating this template in a way that actually makes sense is going to be extremely difficult.
Ha! I am upvoting this comment with my formerly massive but now piddly 100% vote and am moving over after this to vote your witness. So hop to it ;-) What ya waiting for :-)
Seriously. Right on thinking. Hope you accomplish even half of what I have seen you talk about in the medium term future. Hive needs more thinkers and idea guys. Even more doers.
I need to seriously sit down and think about my plans for the future on HIVE/LEO as well as what I am actually gonna do to help unleash its potential, because I do think it has massive potential. As they say though, that car won't drive itself (well, not for the next 5-10 years anyway :-))
