So far as I can tell, hashgraphs are a fucking mess. No one can explain to me how you defend against double spend attacks.
The little that I can tell is that they're fine for private chains. Not sexy for public ones.

So far as I can tell, hashgraphs are a fucking mess. No one can explain to me how you defend against double spend attacks. And no one can decently explain how they handle block size bloat without invoking pruning which means you either have a worse double spend attack or you are a Ripple.

Alas, 'tis true. I don't believe that I have any regular WO participant on ignore. And for whatever attractive attributes JJG may have, he certainly possesses the flaw of being an interminable WO participant. Of course, I kinda drift off mid-JJG-post from time to time...
Yep. It's not like we actually love each other. We just tolerate.
So, right now, I am going to "tolerate" you by not saying anything further. 
I don't give a ratt's ass.
Hmm. Ratt with two 't's'. Unrepentant '80's hair metal devotee?
I think so... whether subliminal or conscientiously.

I think Hairy had it right the other day; it is a scaling arms race and NO ONE has it solved yet.
January 11, 2018, 08:33:05 PM
There will be a solution to the scaling issue. I don't think it's going to be lightning network OR a blocksize increase. It will be using a new algorithm and turning the chain into a tree/sharding. There will be something. I dont care if I have to code it myself. It's not like we're locked into this crappiness.
Hashgraph? YouTube bot is always indicating videos about it to me, but I never care to watch some.

LOL no, not at all. Change is what it's all about! Just don't blink... Blockstream has your back, man.

Why is the price going down? 
Doesn't the entire world want BTC, the money of the future?
Money that you cannot spend, or transfer to a friend, or experiment with, or really do anything with except HODL and make memes about future lambos.
Lightning Network is coming any day now and then fees will be low and merchant adoption will sky rocket!
Except that LN doesn't even work in theory and even ignoring that it would still takes years to bootstrap an entirely new network because that's what LN is -- an independent network to bitcoin.

What btc crash? It's still only down 30% from ATH. Have you ever seen a btc crash? This is nothing. This is only the preamble before the crash.
January 11, 2018, 08:03:56 PM
ETH is not a shitcoin by any means.
With no defined emission schedule, ETH isn't even a coin.
Because the people who are screaming that fees are too high are 99.99% primarily day traders or brokers,
Makes no sense. Would not day traders and brokers have all their funds on exchange? If so, high fees are no concern of theirs.
Gay cowboy finally pulls trigger. It's harder than it seems.
I feel like there's a joke in there somewhere...
I chortled...
Incidentally... congrats Bob - long as you didn't shoot your whole wad. XD

maybe except for a full node on an ofline computer
What most refer to as a 'full node' is a non-mining, fully-validating wallet. By definition, these must be online. Lest they be unable to validate. January 11, 2018, 08:03:24 PM
everyone relax. First futures contact ends soon.
Everything Is going as it should.

I'M GONNA BE HONEST WITH EVERYONE, THE MAIN REASON BTC IS CRASHING IS BECAUSE ALL THE MONEY ALWAYS GOES INTO ALTS OR ICOS. IT WILL NEVER STOP, THE ICOS AND OTHER ALTS BESIDES BTC KEEP SUCKING UP ALL THE BTC CASH SO IT'S VERY HARD FOR BTC TO GROW. THE DOMINANCE OF BTC SHOULD BE ATLEAST 50%
AND MOST IMPORTANT REASON FOR BTC CRASH = THIS MARKET IS MADE TO MAKE MONEY WHICH MEANS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THAT IS MADE BY SOMEONE, SOMEONE IS LOSING MONEY. SO BECAUSE OF THIS SYSTEM THE BTC MARKET WILL NEVER REACH HIGHER THEN 20.000 USD AGAIN. EVERY DOLLAR THAT IS MADE IN THIS MARKET WILL BE SOLD TO FIAT AND IF THERE IS LOW BTC BUY POWER IT WILL MEAN THAT BTC WILL ONLY KEEP GOING DOWN. THIS MARKET IS MADE BY ILLUMINATI TO PROFIT FROM OTHERS AND TAKE THE CASH OUT. CAN YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT IF YOU PUT 10K USD IN BITCONNECT YOU CAN EARN 6K EVERY MONTH BY LENDING, THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE HIGH WHICH AGAIN MEANS FOR EVERY BTC/DOLLAR YOU LEND OUT = SOMEONE IS LOSING MONEY THAT'S THE MAIN REASON THIS MARKET WON'T STAY FOR LONG.

So yeah, remember when I said earlier that we were headed to $18k by Friday (1/12/2018) ?
Forget I ever said that.
I have no freaking idea what is going on.
We'll be lucky to see $14k again by tomorrow at this rate.
Dude we are literally over 9000. And you have like a thousand coins. Don't tell me you are worried? Forget I ever said that.

Jeez, is there no one out there that can short squeeze this market?
C'mon my bull whales, show us something.
