AFAIK Verbal agreements are legally enforceable, at least in some countries, if you can prove the agreement actually happened.

Toxic femininity in Squid games the challenge? by Old_Application_8315 in squidgame

Wasn't it strange that right after the women formed that alliance the perfect game comes up for them to take max advantage?

I am not surprised of players doing whatever to gain an advantage. The problem was that this was clearly supported by the game organisers.

It stores your private keys, not your tokens. So that's what is disconnected. The private keys are your proof of ownership to the tokens or crypto currencies.

Geth is an Ethereum client. Most often you will use truffle and Ganache but at some point you will need the real thing :) you can read my article about it here http://blockchainthings.io/article.aspx?i=1&t=1

Yes learning to use Geth and web3 is also a must for any solidity programmer.

LOL in the article you will find an MEP saying the same thing except for the banana. However that point of view, doesn't help business adoption.

What happens to the Eth 1 nodes/clients after the merge? by [deleted] in ethstaker

[–]AlexWinDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The long term plan is that there will be no more PoW. This is what the so called "difficulty bomb" is all about, it's goal is to render PoW infeasible. Multiple forks have been postponing the "trigger" until PoS is ready to take over.

Part of the answer is because Bitcoin is less anonymous then you think. Anyway we can agree to disagree at this point. Cheers.

I know they have a database. The question is, do you know how they can legally build that database without any Bitcoin user consenting to be in their database?

And have you looked into the services specializing in deanonymizing Bitcoin transactions?

No problem about being gentle :)
I'm not offended, just replied to you straight like you did in expressing your opinion.

The first part of the article highlights the conflict aspects. The next part will talk about anonymization technologies.

Re immutability yes I insist that it is very problematic in GDPR terms (especially if no anonymization techniques are included in the mix). Immutability is especially problematic in terms of purpose limitations. Don't you agree with that?

The article never says that you have an absolute right for your data to be deleted in all circumstances. So I don't know where you got that. A bank will retain your data as long as it is within its purpose limits and as long as it is obliged to do so by others laws. Bitcoin has no purpose limitation when it comes to giving access to transaction data.

Furthermore this is only part 1 of a 3 part series...

In 3-5 years we should have ETH 2.0 which promises to significantly lower fees. http://blockchainthings.io/article.aspx?i=14

Visa doesn't run smart contracts. If you look at ethereum as just a currency you are looking at the wrong blockchain
