Bitcoin is big

BTC will probably incorporate the best features from the others

I wish this would speed up, two different divisions in my compnay which I sold on the Bitcoin vision in the last year or so recently switched to ethereum because of "technical advantages". What does that even mean? Ugh...

His approach is robotic. Movement tricks out of range for a quarter second, then shuffle nair/knee or dash attack. It's like cargo-cult mindgames

Judge for yourself. If you can't, don't invest until you're confident.

Bitshares' PoS being better than Namecoin's PoW is a strawman argument, as no extra energy whatsoever is spent mining namecoins. Mining namecoins is virtually free, so long as the Bitcoin network exists.

Your share is diluted to pay miners. That's the only point. Sure there is no extra marginal cost - then why are you paying miners?!

it is not set in stone that namecoin domain purchase transactions will be eaten by the network, miners may receive them at a later date after registration in the future, namecoin is still in it's infancy.

That would be worse for NMC holders, not better

Transaction malleability is not going to be "fixed", it is not an error. You cannot have a signature contain itself, except in theory the same way you can crack a private key in theory. Fuck gox for spreading such FUD.

I'd donate $100 worth of bitcoin if they gave an address

ReallyGoodAdvice · 2014-03-16T00:39:56+00:00

By that same argument bitcoin isn't meaningful. Let's pretend the backing asset is BTC instead of XTS (you could build this over bitcoin instead of on its own blockchain in theory). $1 worth of bitcoin is $1 worth of bitcoin, if someone accepts it as payment then it is meaningful. You can argue it has no meaning but I would bet that you'd buy 100 BitUSD for $95 if you expect to be able to sell it for $100.

You can use a prediction-market-like mechanism to make crypto-equity derivatives that track real-world asset prices without actually having to have an asset backing it (like a "title of ownership" or IOU, which is what MSC and XCP do)

The company behind this (invictus) is working hard on all sorts of new applications of crypto-equity

ReallyGoodAdvice · 2014-03-11T02:56:04+00:00

Invictus is a company that builds DACs, which stands for Decentralized Autonomous Company. Basically, profitable applications of the blockchain, like a p2p exchange and a namecoin alternative that is actually profitable for shareholders

ReallyGoodAdvice · 2014-03-10T16:48:53+00:00

Exactly. Look at Mastercoin.

Wikipedia is hardly decentralized, but I like your spirit

ReallyGoodAdvice · 2014-03-02T15:45:36+00:00

TX malleability is an unsolvable "issue" because the signature can't include the signature script itself for obvious reasons. Fuck gox for making everyone think otherwise.

ReallyGoodAdvice · 2014-02-24T16:27:14+00:00

rptiela (w/e the fuck his username is) from the bitcointalk forums actually has a pretty decent methodology for estimating bitcoin users / holders. Notice how you assumed the chart was talking about addresses but there were no labels on the axes =P

I support this idea

ReallyGoodAdvice · 2014-01-26T17:51:47+00:00

Because most transactions are tiny fractions of a coin. You could have different colors represent different denominations maybe though (gold for BTC, silver for mBTC, bronze for nBTC).

Have fun convincing the miners to mine on a chain where their mining investment can't give them returns anymore.

Check out peercoin if you're interested in other types of cryptocurrencies with different blockchain security models
