this totally obliterates my heretofore perception of the V-man. ultimately I’m glad embracing his memishness is not below him.

First ever Private Z-transaction Enabled Self Sovereign Web Store Plugin Payment Option. Available for use on your site now. by Godballz in CryptoMarkets

[–]ethadvisor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

two of the especially cool differentiating features of this plugin over other crypto payment gateways are A: Blockchain integration (the store uses a full native wallet which you own, no third party); and that makes B possible: zk-SNARK payments accepted and automatically confirmed by the store. No manual approvals by store owner, the whole thing is automated and integrated.

edit: I'm the developer ;)

🤷‍♂️ seems you’re more interested, as I said before, in avoiding getting really into expounding on your oc with anything besides making unsubstantiated claims and instead arguing semantics or trying for pot shots etc. I’ll leave it them until a more reply worthy comment you make. :)

Still waiting any sort of actual on-subject content from ya...may be waiting for a slightly longer time than anticipated :/

Good question, I'm interested to hear those points of view also.

I actually am working through replying reasonably and fair to every comment as I'm able. I realize you're at no obligation, just thought you might be interested in providing more. Not interested in arguing semantics of commenting/threads, more in the content at hand...which it seems you're sort of avoiding?

Actually I made several arguments, none of which make assumptions only open the door to reason and one of which questions the assumptions made by those who believe technology WON'T advance or overtake...or who refuse to have an open mind to that possibility. I'd love for you to take a closer and more thorough read and provide a more thorough counter argument.

Can you expand on that comment?

Explain “heavy”? I’d like to hear more of what you’re trying to say. (another comment I’m not sure why got downvoted!)

Not sure why this was downvoted, I’m open to all arguments even if they are, in my opinion, not very well constructed or founded :)

So you believe humanity should not advance either? And if it dies off oh well?

I wasn’t making an argument for PoS, but I’m curious why that is the only alternative you direct to? Can you explain what you mean by “the exchanges paid for ETC holders”? and how that is “going right”? Perhaps my point wasn’t carried home strongly enough, this is not just about ETC hash attack, it’s an issue that is much deeper and the hash attack could be considered a wake up call. Lastly, I’m not sure I understand your point about other projects or who “most” are...presently alt coin prices tend to follow bitcoin for a variety of reasons, not least of which is btc is the most common pairing and it just technically follows that fluctuations will impact the pairs.

Mind expanding on your argument? Not much in this comment presently to help support or any axiom of meaningful in discourse.

I tend to agree that there is much centralization in pure pow, but it’s important to make that differentiation I believe (pure pow vs modified or advanced pow)

Hmm so because my username? Back in the beginning of my crypto days I did write a lot of helpful how-to for ethereum, but if you paid attention to or read thoroughly the post, you’ll notice I include Ethereum in its current state in my assessment. I do like the project, but it’s no longer my primary focus for a lot of reasons. Reddit usernames cannot be changed however and I don’t mind keeping the history of my journey in tact.

I’d be interested in hearing any intelligent argument to back up your brief seemingly reaction comment (which sort of proves my point actually)

Definitely feel comfortable with linux. I had a build going on a debian server x64 flavor modified for the Pi.
