A notable retrocoiner, Mircea, concedes loss of faith in Bitcoin:
Ha ha, they win. Again
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
P.S. Will $420 hold
Quote
... the notion of "a majority of Bitcoin nodes" is void of content, most of the relay network being under the control of the same entity and supporting functionality not contemplated by the Bitcoin protocol (such as selective mothballing of specific transactions).1 This specifically means that "someone"2 has the ability to nuke transactions out of the network irrespective of whether they are validly signed or not, directly replicating functionality already available to fiat governments in fiat payment processors such as Visa or Paypal.
That a cartel of Bitcoin miners is deliberately and systematically withholding blocks for an interval of about 20 minutes to a half hour, so as to ensure themselves a (significant) advantage over any would-be competitors.3

Well it took them 4 years but they got them.
Nonetheless I'd say authorities won here. We all know that darknet isn't safe. That using it doesn't mean being anonymous.
A lot of the time people get caught by being stupid &/or complacent. Good security & anonymity practices should leave you unscathed as long as you're not a kingpin or something.

"As CCN.LA’s Giulio Prisco wrote:
It should be obvious that if enough people want to buy something, there will be providers. Crackdowns and seizures don’t eliminate online drug markets, but only push them deeper underground under the control of criminals. If the more “principled” providers are eliminated, the field will be left wide open to the less principled ones."

Hey, I've got a question.
What are those red white or void squares below the percentage of chartbuddy?

Richy, may I make a suggestion?
In addition to the graphic showing how full the last blocks were, could you perhaps include a measure of the average fee paid (perhaps even denominated in USD) to ensure inclusion in the next block?
This might be a more accurate measure of how (over-/under-) congested the system really is, and perhaps help us move forward a little from this big/small spam/micropayment fight.
We're in danger of being the two guys locked in hand to hand as both plummet over the cliff.
You don't post much, but whenever you do, it pretty much always makes sense.

If I understand well, open bazar is just a P2P eshop platform?
The only difference with things like ebay is that you can pay in btc?

Daily reminder it took the entire world to take down Germany in World War II
The next war we won't be slaughtering our racial brothers.
Once the jewish mass media gets removed from these serpents we'll conquer this evil so fast it'll make your head spin.
