The scale of global financial trade is truly breathtaking.

The scale of global IT spend and IT spend within finance is truly breathtaking.

The Blockchain is going to be one big mother ship of revenue and profit.

I reckon around 0.1 km worth of Panamax ships full of $10 notes  Grin

I am speechless.

You think you know stuff, but then you find data that blows your view of the world totally out of the water.

* One company, Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation, cleared $1.6 Quadrillion in transactions value last year. I didn't even know a quadrillion was a number.
http://www.afr.com/business/banking-and-finance/quadrillion-dollar-corporation-at-the-heart-of-the-financial-system-20150707-gi6w7b

* The global IT market is worth $4 trillion. Trillion ( I knew that number existed).

This is bits and bytes moving around wires in the $quadrillions. How many oil tankers would you need to store quadrillions worth of $10 bills?

Well this sites states that 1 trillion in $100 bills would take ~169 sea cans. So $10 bills would take ~1690 cans. (per wikipedia $10s and $100s are the same size/weight)

http://ggallman.com/trillion.htm

1 quadrillion is 1000 trillion so 1690000 cans.

A New Panamax size ship transports max 13000 cans

http://maritime-connector.com/wiki/panamax/

So if I didn't mess up the math 1690000 / 13000 = 130 New Panamax ships for 1 quadrillion  Grin

Edit: Just to have a visual reference the length of those ships would be ~47.5Km.

That's a super cool analysis. Thanks!

So at $1.6 trillion, this one company clears over 70km worth of Panamax ships full of $10 notes.

The Panama canal is only 77km long!

It is over ten years since I heard this so my figures are estimated from memory and may not be applicable now but I once read that Citibank processed $1Tn PER DAY in each of their main two clearing houses.

Numbers like this don't mean anything to me.  Its pretty hard to get your head around one million unless you're trying to buy a house in London Cheesy

hey, i am looking for a cpu coin to mine,

has gpu mining destroyed spread coin for cpu mining,

or do you think I can mine cpu this coin?

with SpreadX11 the diff is almost 3x slower on gpu compared to x11 (as far as i know) so you should have better chance of cpu mining this coin... depends on number of cpus and type ofcourse, but you might have better luck finding a true cpu coin ... but try if you want to, i did mine a couple of blocks of this coin via cpu ... thats a couple of months ago.


I downloaded the spreadcoin wallet, but it isn't processing the blocks,
stuck at 0 blocks processed for 10 minutes now.
don't have any active connections

Alternatively, download the new wallet:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11262666

it has been tested for quite some time, and seems to work ok.
It will leave beta stage soon.

go into the console type: (look in the menu at the top of the wallet)

addnode 94.23.23.194 add


then give it a few minutes

and.. make sure you have the new wallet that was posted in the OP of this thread

I guess Big Data, err, is big



If you ignore the 'email' sources of data, then you get transactions and logs.

So, the thesis is this:  

Can you take Bitcoin transaction and log data and build a platform that can look at social media data and create common data points that would help reveal something worth being called 'business analytics' that managers, CEOs, analysts, researchers, etc, would trust enough to help them make decisions?

Blockchain Identity Startup ShoCard Raises $1.5 Million

http://www.coindesk.com/blockchain-identity-startup-shocard-1-5-million/



"TradeBlock received a $2.8M seed funding from an investment round on July 16, 2014. Created by co-founders Jeff Schvey and Greg Schvey, the company is aimed to be the portal for blockchain data and digital currency analysis, watching everything involved with trades, regulations, protocol updates and mining. "

http://cointelegraph.com/news/114892/blockchain-data-provider-tradeblock-partners-with-fintech-sandbox

Seems to be a lot of vc interest in Blockchain data....

Factom Inc. have also closed $1m from crowd funding.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11899990

This is in addition to an ICO of some sorts for their token. Sounds a bit of a mess. ICO and a crowd sale.

However, plenty of interest in blockchains, but only Bitcoin or Bitcoin related so far.
