I cannot wait for SegWit and the Lightning network and hope it gets released before the OpenBazaar goes mainstream. I think we will see a significant increase in the adoption rate, once OpenBazaar goes wild and this will add a lot of extra traffic, just in time for the improvements that SegWit and the Lightning network will bring. ^smile^

It will take a while for the OpenBazaar to go mainstream, as the reputation system will take many months to establish.

Probably many years instead. The situation might be similar to localbitcoins, already here many years, but centralized solutions to buy/sell Bitcoin are much more used, so Im pretty sceptical OpenBazaar can compare with ebay in next 5-10 years.

This Joystream project sounds very promising if you really can get rewards for uploading your stuff. Has anyone used the program and have you been paid? I can't understand from their website if it's still in development or it's the final version of the product. My only concern is whether or not this BitTorrent client will have access to all the trackers or it will be a closed system.

I don't think I get the right idea of joystream, so please correct me if I'm wrong, joystream is basically a torrenting site (and app) which if you upload or seed, you'll get satoshi in return?

Seeders get paid, downloaders pay the seeders.

So you write a book, upload it, set a download price, and then those that download it pay for it.

I edited the first post, now the explanation is more clear regarding joystream. Its basically a revenue sharing system between hosters and seeders.

Athereum and zerocoin are more like competitors.

Not necessarly.

Ethereum can build decentralized exchanges because many are scams. Or any other decentralized investments like faucets, gambling,trading, etc.

There are tons of scam sites in this domain, so if we remove the trust in the middleman and put the trust in the code it would be better.

And of course it would be compatible with bitcoin.

Zerocoin has only 1 function, privacy and fungibility for bitcoin. It doesnt dethrone anyone.

All I know is that I know nothing.

informative topic. i didn't know about Joystream.
also #7 never heard of BitcoinJ Payment Channels before but for micro-payment for faucets there is faucetbox and for other platforms like for tipping i have seen a lot of bots on reddit. i don't quite understand the usage of this.

SegWit we might see implemented in the next weeks.
Lightning Network will definitely take much much more time.
But maybe other forms of payment channels like 21inc's version will be realized sooner.We'll see.

if Athereum integrate uᴉoɔʇᴉq in its platform, as a means of payment(not talking abotu the currency eth itself) than i can not see it as a competitor, zerocoin definitely yes, it's like a "DarkFlarb sha256"

uᴉoɔʇᴉq sure seems to be the word tonight. Tongue

But, I do look forward to learning more about new uᴉoɔʇᴉq upcoming events.

BTC needs a game-changer (or more) now, as well as getting the whole block size debate resolved.

a great compilation of Events for bitcoin.
i am specially excited about the OpenBazaar project. it sounds great to me and i have read a couple of great reviews on reddit from those who tried it out.
i believe it is going to be a huge success.

The only one I'm excited about is the block halving it means that we will probably see a dump because people are expecting the price to rise. But after a few months it will start rising steadily but that only a theory. Tongue

I will probably wait and watch on that day the bitcoin price to see if my prediction is true

It will dump if the price goes up, if nothing changes then chances are people will continue waiting, maybe there will be a small slide. I know this is more speculation, but I don't think people will sell at a loss just because the value didn't immediately go up.
