Seems counterproductive. Whddayabet that this is implemented by the server rebuffing connection requests from early versions? Makes it all the more likely that the client will connect to a fake (nefarious) server.

PPPPPPfffffffffffffffff



Wtf up with this Bcash? 

Whether or not they are being put to use, BitcoinSV min3d a 128mb blocksize the other day. What will happen to the miners when the lightning network is in full force?

I wonder how long it's gonna take for the SEC to take a closer look at those IEOs :

Hey jbreher, I guess you’ll never have to worry about BCH or SV blocks being full seeing as though hardly anybody uses them.

Sometimes the old dictum is apropos (sometimes): 'Never attribute that to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity'.

Of course, if one _was_ evil, and wanted to bring down a new form of people's currency, one way to do so would be to limit its usability to an ever-shrinking number of use cases.

At least this position is supportable by reasoning - from one of several possible logical sets of axioms.


'Lost' implies finality. Yet this game is open-ended.

BTC is not Bitcoin? Interesting assertion!

We have already established that I hold BTC as well as my preferred SV and BCH.

You've got to know where to go and how to travel. Don't show your wealth. Keep to well policed areas unless you are accompanied by trusted, well-connected locals, but don't give police any reason to interact with you. Dress down.

Keep to tourist areas whenever possible and project an image of being a typical tourist... i.e. a job slave who is running up debt on a credit card to seek a short-lived break from wage slavery. I use only cash in Canada but I use a credit card when traveling. It makes me look more like a tourist.

Of course away from tourist areas I use only cash. Everybody does. Nobody in my area has a bank account or credit card. There aren't even any banks in the area. That's one reason I love it there... no banks, no phones, no criminals, very few cops. Just sunshine, fresh air, good food, cheap booze and a certain little hot-blooded chilanga.

The reason I'm taking $30kUSD down is to finish paying for my zirconia teeth, pay off a personal loan, and make improvements to my house down there. I'm in the midst of major infrastructure upgrades... new 220v/120a wiring, water heater, upgraded security, etc.

I can only take $10kUSD down on the plane with me but I'll have a traveling companion to carry another $10k. The rest I'll put on my credit card and begrudgingly pay the cash advance and exchange fees. I don't have a bank account in either country. I'll spend the $20k cash almost immediately on the dentist and debt repayment and then live off my card.

I hate banks.

I dunno. Seem's Elwar's endeavor's USP is freedom from outside governmental interference. The ocean-faring aspect seems to me to be only a means to this end. I don't much expect anything coming from an NGO think-tank to operate in an independent manner.

Not to mention the article's stated 'within 1 mi of shore' aspect, which if I am not mistaken is safely within agreed national boundaries.

Would there be a practical problem with making every block however big (or small) is needed to fill all current transfers?

 People keep asking me why #Bitcoin is up. Over a year of OTC accumulation & big $100m buy order on exchanges. The short term price is driven by fear and greed. The long term story is everybody will need $BTC eventually and there wont be many to go around.

You are incorrect. My advocacy has always been for no protocol-determined block limit. For such is exactly equivalent to a centrally-planned production quota. And production quotas -- to the extent that they are enforceable -- are invariably economically inefficient, ensuring crappy outcomes for most participants.

In case you had not noticed, miners have always been happy to mine blocks large enough such that average wait tx latencies were darned near universally next-block or so. That is, until blocks became persistently full, making such performance impossible.

At 1MB in size, blocks are so trivially small that miners' only consideration was in maximizing tx fees in the blocks they are building. Leading to blocks not being persistently full until the number of txs desired by the community became in excess of the block size limit. Obviously, such an issue can be solved by increasing the block size limit.

Of course, at some size (specific size thereof unknowable to the central planners), block size will be problematic. But the market will solve this issue. At the point where block propagation increases due to size leads to a higher incidence of orphaning, that is where the equilibrium point for block size will be set. Again, assuming no centrally-planned max, and that sufficient txs are available to build such large blocks.


Absolutely. Now you seem to have caught up.

Electrum Faces Another Fake Wallet Attack, Users Reported to Lose Millions of Dollars

But what constitutes bitcoin, the project was released with one document, that has been completely disregarded and you call that Bitcoin based on a trading markets completely irrelevant to the project itself?

^^^'Substantive rebuttal' case in point.

For the most part, yes. I certainly feel I have a greater than average grasp of such consequences -- upon both Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Core -- than does the average Bitcoiner -- in any of the Bitcoin camps. For evidence of such, I need only look at the near-universally asinine replies issued as 'rebuttals' to the points I make.

To be continued.

Good morning fellow hodlers

Despite several attempts by Bear forces to infiltrate our lines, troops have rallied strongly and have met each encroachment with steadfast support. Sympathy to our plight is spreading across the global community like wildfire with crys of "This aggression will not stand, man!" ringing out across the land.

Combat operations are expected to continue throughout the week as hotspots flare up and insurgent shorters continue their efforts to undermine hodlers sustained gainz. Therefor all troops are encouraged to maintain a constant state of readiness until further notice.

In other news.

The enlisted mess tent is down for renovations today after several anonymous complaints about the lack of doughnut selections available.

The showing of "The Black Cat" is being moved from 1800 hours to 1830 hours due to popular demand.


That is all.
