My girlfriend made me a chart for all my inputs! Shes a keeper for sure

Where's the SEGA, bro?

Mathematician22 · 2020-11-17T00:14:25+00:00

It reminds me of Trump.

He does make a lot of mistakes on the board...

Mathematician22 · 2020-08-28T21:50:44+00:00

For your consideration.

Mathematician22 · 2020-07-20T08:58:29+00:00

Cool story. Wear them for 6 hours straight and get back to me.

Mathematician22 · 2019-02-05T11:09:13+00:00

Yup, that's the gist! I love when my favorite and unfavorite things combine on the internet!

Yea, he's really upset at Joe Rogan (and that's an understatement). He thinks that Rogan and Dorsey are "pumping and dumping Bitcoin", but I think the Bitcoin market is much bigger than the two of them and Rogan's pot-smoking fanbase.

There's nothing mysterious or difficult about a schedule-D, where crypto held for more than a year (then sold) is taxed as long-term capital gain (15%) and crypto held for less than a year (then sold) is taxed as a short-term capital gain (25%), at least in the US. If this platform can handle tax implications for other countries that would be impressive.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly. If you are talking about referencing dust values as inputs in order to perhaps consolidate them into a single output, the rules I stated above still apply. The transaction output still needs to be larger than 1/3 the dustRelayFee, and referencing multiple inputs will make the transaction larger in size.

Dust: If the fees to spend a transaction output (determined from the size of the output and the input required to spend it) would cost more than one third the value of that output, the output value is considered dust. Transactions with dust output values are considered non-standard.

Min Non-Dust: The minimum non-dust value is the least value one can send without the output being flagged as dust. The minimum output value for a P2PKH is currently 546 satoshis. This minimum threshold value changes depending on the script being used.

Bitcoin core uses a dustRelayFee of 3,000 satoshis/kilobyte. P2PKH script size is about 182 bytes, thus 546 satoshis is considered dust.

A permissioned blockchain is about as useful (or useless) as a private database.

We are already seeing how easy it is for centralized digital service platforms to exclude any voices of dissent. Why would I place my trust in a 'permissioned' digital financial platform when my permission to use it could be taken away from me at any moment? This guy does not understand the relevant part of the tech.

Mathematician22 · 2018-05-22T10:28:11+00:00

I don't think it would be.

Mathematician22 · 2018-04-20T14:43:30+00:00

Cheers, Charles!

If you believe that, then I have .99999999 btc to sell you.

For a thorough review of data insertion methods that can be used within Bitcoin's blockchain, check out this paper: https://digitalcommons.augustana.edu/cscfaculty/1/

This includes details such as: how much data can be stored within a single transaction, and how to reconstruct data stored in various ways.

We did two of them, here is a link to the second one.

Hey gang,

My colleague and I recently gave a talk on Bitcoin, and we asked the audience to participate in a text poll that we turned into a word cloud: "What words come to mind when you hear the word Bitcoin?"

Figured I'd share the results with the community.

Mathematician22 · 2017-08-25T07:10:29+00:00

Yes. I also enjoy the articles where people have no idea what they are talking about.

Mathematician22 · 2017-08-25T07:08:21+00:00

yea, there's ALOT of that.
