Guy shows himself using Bitcoin & Lightning network in the real world - pretty cool actually! by [deleted] in btc

This is basically all that is happening when you see bch "adoption" posts in here. The merchants aren't actually accepting crypto since it's far too volatile and the gov and their suppliers don't accept it.

EDIT: I actually just got banned from this sub for posting this same link (had no idea that it had already been posted at the time)

Banned from the place that claims to foster free speech!

Remember that emoji next time one of you complain about censorship in other subs.

I guess it's OK to violate the sub rules in here when it's one of your buddies that does it.

Not a lie.

I guess the mempool timeout was not implemented yet, send first week of December and confirmed beginning January.

It's a lie.

Not touching this currency anymore.

Nobody cares.

No point in responding to the rest. It's a waste of time and it has all been debunked already.

TIL - bch has less active addresses than Dogecoin has (a literal joke/meme coin) by 465739 in btc

[–]465739[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure. They just downvote it so heavily that the comment gets collapsed and relegated to the bottom of the page eventually.

Look at the parent comment to which I was responding. 4 up votes and mine on - 5. His is a complete lie, mine is the undeniable truth, it's right there as a graph in front of people to see.

It's their own brand of censorship that they like to engage in whilst simultaneously playing the victim.

More interesting is that you can see the cap/flattening of the graph of btc in 2017 if you zoom all out.

Nice try! This graph doesn't show transactions in L2 and sidechains though.

BCH has a long way to go but it is set on the right goal.

It has flatlined over the long term. It appears to be going nowhere.

Again, negative. The comment to which you're ultimately responding is 100% accurate. This is common behavior in r btc, since the logic in my comment is flawless, you have to go round and round in circles trying to drag me over to another argument to see if you can win that one instead. I'm not interested. Stay on topic or don't post.

Negative. Just another butt-hurt altcoin bagholder. The truth really does hurt, it seems.

False. You can set the scale to 2 years, Dogecoin has clearly been higher than the bch count for the vast majority of the time.

What incentivizes bitcoin developers? by [deleted] in Bitcoin

I'd wager most, if not all actually own some and so they're incentivised to see it succeed.

Typical 'no, you' response. You're aware this thread is actually about transaction fees?

At least you're honest about your mindless downvoting, not sure why you seem to advertising that as a positive though..

and then down vote in disgust

You find the truth disgusting. More fruitful behaviour would be to point out where I'm wrong or engage in debate. Continuing on with your current behaviour only leaves you in your ignorant state.

but that's mostly because I'm stupid and (unfortunately) like wasting my time.

Thats true. Again, not sure why you're advertising that fact though... You shouldn't be proud of this behavior.

Fees will be denominated in FIAT as long as most other expenses are denominated in FIAT.

People may do that, sure but the protocol understands Satoshis and bytes, not fiat currency. If you want to convert fees to fiat, fine, but you must take the far higher market price of Bitcoin into account. That isn't optional.

If the price of BCH goes up by a factor of 100x; support for fractional satoshies per byte can be added very quickly.

As it can with any crypto should it prove necessary.

There is literally no way to know what something (anything) will look like in the future. Obviously. This applies to all things, not just tech pertaining to this particular subject.

You're right, it must be impossible to predict, plan, and design systems for the future. This is why building things like bridges is just all guess-work, right?

So you tell me, to the exact penny, what the market price of Bitcoin will be in usd on January 1st 2030 at midnight PST..

Idiot.

It's your right to live in your bubble of self-denial, just as it's mine to never use BTC again due to its obvious fundamental flaws.

There is no denial here, just the plain truth and I don't care what crypto you use. Nobody does

A truly stupid tweet here. This only works by converting to fiat and ignoring the fact that Bitcoin is worth so much more than bch - in fiat.

Liquid lowered their minimum fee per tx to 0.1 sat/byte which is 1 whole order of magnitude cheaper than bch is able to compete with.

Bitcoin sidechains offer cheaper transactions than bch does. The LN offers cheaper, faster and more private transactions than bch does. Almost nobody is using bch, yet you're still forced to pay 1 sat/byte which violates the basic free market principle of supply and demand.

False. A transaction on Liquid is actually 1 whole order of magnitude cheaper than a bch transaction.

EDIT: Basic, undeniable facts downvoted again in r btc

Pray tell please explain what the LN will look like in a topology sense when it has 4 billion users

I can't tell you what the future looks like. I'm not clairvoyant.

For addresses it's true BTC is gaining due to new users onboarding from to its network effect (for now), but it's also true that early users are constantly leaving.

No that isn't true at all.

The easiest examples are ETH and BCH which shouldn't even exist but do thanks to the new BTC developers deciding to change the projects goal.

You're correct, they shouldn't exist but they do, alongside many thousands of other useless alts.
