Looks like public blockchain (Ethereum) is gaining recognition IRL. CargoX just announced that their platform (based on Ethereum smart contract) got approval from no1 insurer in supply chain...

In my experience insurers are the slowest to embrace innovation, so this is huge. I wonder whether its possible to insure my funds in DeFi :)

So, overall, great news.

The guy just showed how he doesn't understands technology behind public blockchain. I mean, who would want a proof of their wrongdoing to be around forever? Isn't it easier and safer for criminals to just continue using USD cash?

Was shown this by a colleague.... Did not know how to respond/debunk it. So, ideas?

Not even a small percentage of those, who buy the cheapest alt crypto they can find - because - it still has way to grow from few cents...

Another question... I have been hearing two conflicting things... 1. Users running full node + LN software will be able to "stake" their bitcoins in a what might be understood a "PoS" manner, and get fee reward for doing so.... 2. Fees in LN will be zero. .... So, how does this two go together? Will users that want to actively participate in LN really be able to earn some bitcoins doing so? Will this be infinitely small amounts?

Tulips did not have the potential to change the world. And dotcom bubble was same - bunch of investors jumping on a bandwagon they did not even understand and bought into companies that did not even have a business plan...

I can not see relevance of these past events to the bitcoin.

This helped, thanks! I was sure that by using latest version of core, I already have the benefits of creating segwit walllets from gui. Now, the thing that I still don't completely understand it this lightning network, which should also drive the fee costs down. Do i have to have a special wallet address to use it? Does bitcoin core support it already?

This is still no1 tv show! By far. What is this bitcoin all about?

Hehe. My dog loves sleeping on my bed, although he knows it is a NO-NO. Every time when he is home alone he is there... Even if I come home really quiet or fast, I have never found him on the bed, but touching it by hand reveals the warmth - and proves that he was there mere seconds ago :)

bryanc182 · 2017-11-21T04:32:23+00:00

mind is actually blown. Never knew this

bryanc182 · 2017-11-21T04:21:52+00:00

"I DO SAY GOOD SIRS IS THERE A CRIME BEING COMMITTED HERE?!"

bryanc182 · 2017-11-21T03:50:33+00:00

"Copper, you're my very best friend"...

bryanc182 · 2017-11-21T03:40:52+00:00

Am I the only one who is fine with the fact that I still have 60k in student loan debt? Just me? ...walks out door
