My first bit of fan mail.

Hello Rosewater,
I propose my services as a bounty campaign manager of your project which interests me a lot.
I am a trusted person, well known on the forum that will have a positive impact on your reputation. I also propose effective mailing, to boost the campaign.
I also propose my services to be listed in exchanges (I have contacts, for a certain cost you will be in these exchanges)

Regards,
ElectricMucus.

Wonder where he heard about my (((project))).

No one will be forced to use the lightning network. LN will reduced blockchain bloat and lower fees, even for the people who will never use it.

Of course people will be forced to use Lightning Network.  Nobody is going to pay $200 in fees for a $200 item, thus doubling the item's price.  When I did calculations a long time ago, I think my numbers were that even at 8 MB block size, only transactions of something like $5k-10k would be viable on-chain if bitcoin had any decent market penetration.  Anonymint's number were WAY WAY higher than mine for how high fees can go, but I don't know if his were rational or not since I didn't really check them.

Roach has some valid points

It takes energy to extract gold and silver, from burning fossil fuels. Peak oil also = peak gold and silver you can't magic it out the ground without expending the work.  'Proof or work' in bitcoin was based on that principle. There is no magic surplus going to arrive from outer space.
  
Also as per recent comments a few pages back. Lightning Network, I have also concluded is a banking layer plonked on top of bitcoin.

Ignoring this is akin to putting your head in the sand like an ostrich. But yeah, ignore the troll. Ignore me too. I'm used to hostility on this thread


Because you're a Bcash supporter and Bcashers are always full of bullshit.

Why do you think everybody hates Roger, i dont see people bashing Monero etc.

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?

You bitcoin shill bugmen really are clueless about metals.  -snip-  


Wake up man..you missed the future..its here.

16 Psyche is located in the large asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It is a 130 mile (200km) wide chunk of metal, made up of iron, nickel and a number of other rare metals, including gold, platinum and copper. If the asteroid could be transported back to Earth, the iron alone would be worth $10,000 quadrillion (£8,072 quadrillion).

could work until they miscalculate the trajectory (or a guidance malfunction) and instead of going into earth orbit to be mined, it crashes into roaches house. whoops. roach will, however then be extremely rich and will post meme after meme about how he was right.

Roach...fuck off...what ever..

Your so last century dude...keep up or get out.

All interplanetary travel will be via magnetic plasma sails. And I concede that your probably right..mining and transporting raw materials from space down a gravity well is to difficult to be economically viable. Unless a space elevator or other such tech happens. Set off nuclear ordanance? Why ever for? Light sails, ion engines, gravity tethers..there are ways to easily and cheaply alter the orbits of noteworthy objects with zero muss or fuss.

The plasma magnet sail engine is little more than 2 pairs of charged rotating coils and is therefore extremely simple and inexpensive. A fully powered plasma magnet sail using a small nuclear power source could accelerate at 0.5G and reach 400-700 km/sec (0.2% of lightspeed) in half a day.
A stream of charged particles could be generated from Phobos or Demos to slow the Plasma magnet sail to Mars. If you were slowing a 100-ton manned spacecraft, then you would need to produce 100,000 tons of particles. There would need to be multi-megawatt plant on the moons of Mars. It is possible to scale up for manned missions and to stop the craft.
 Neptune has a large enough magnetosphere where a plasma magnet sail could stop by decelerating at 5Gs. It would be a 4-month mission to Neptune
 a 10 KW system could slow an interstellar spacecraft from 20% of lightspeed over 2 years. Interstellar missions could then explore the target solar system.

Got enough of those! We need predictions! Give me one (roughly) right of the price by end of this week (Sun) and I'll stop nagging you

That is because you guys talk nonsense. First of all we are going into space soon https://www.cnbc.com/2017/12/08/boeing-says-it-will-beat-spacex-to-mars-elon-musk-responds-do-it.html. Once we get there, making a 'mining' ship is just easy.
-Gold/Silver density will be higher in certain areas of space compared to earth, making mining a lot easier
-Sun energy could be harvested since they will be closer to the sun to extract gold
-Low gravity will make the extraction process probably a lot easier

But you must consider that at the time you have access to more resources, the value will deflate instantly, this is why you ain't going to see any mining spaceships anytime soon, unless it is for valuable matherials (lithium?Oil?)
