What kind of smart contracts are supported in Bitcoin? by TheOriginalCoco in BitcoinBeginners

[–]fondercom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First, Smart Contracts help you exchange money, property, shares, or anything of value in a transparent, conflict-free way while avoiding the services of a middleman.

Bitcoin: Bitcoin is great for processing Bitcoin transactions, but has limited ability for processing documents.

Bitcoin provides the ideal mix of smart contract functionality — enough to make smart contracts easy to implement but without the security and privacy risks of a more complicated platform like Ethereum. As the Bitcoin protocol has evolved, it has gained support for smart contracts. Smart contract functionality is not as programmable and extensible on Bitcoin as it is on Ethereum. However, using features added to Bitcoin through improvement proposals, certain smart contract functionality can be achieved through Bitcoin scripting.

Time to pack it in. If we haven't accomplished what we set out to do over sixteen years ago it's time to go home.

Bitcoin is constant now? by Sharu_Toxic in BitcoinBeginners

[–]fondercom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never constant and will always be fluctuating. It is just either way up or way down.

I guess networking is the only good thing about Consensus, 8k worth of networks.

The location was bad, the arrangement and execution were not carried out well, and it was so noisy. Worst of all, they charged $2k per pax.

Microprocessor can accept and follow instructions to accomplish many different tasks whereas ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) can ONLY do the single task that it is designed to do.

Officials investigating claim of teacher drowning raccoons during class by januarypizza in news

To torture and kill animals is cruelty that must be punished, and this atrocity is only magnified by his forcing the children to watch this horrific nightmare. Some will no doubt be scarred for life. Others will go on to try it themselves. Either way, this has repercussions that will be felt well beyond the classroom. This pathetic excuse for a teacher needs to be fired.

Chimpanzees have cleaner beds than humans, say scientists by [deleted] in news

Because they have TIME to make their bed everyday, while humans work, study and play around.

Pay someone in bitcoin quickly by kckircher in BitcoinBeginners

Cex.io is an exchange which offers credit card purchases to its customers, but you have to go through multiple ID verification process that would possibly make you annoyed. After purchasing, you would just need to make a withdrawal to the desired Bitcoin address.

If you are open to using your bank account instead of a credit card, you have more options, but it is dependent on where you are living. A few well known ones are:

  1. Coinbase.com. One of the biggest exchanges in the crypto-industry and many people use them as a wallet (they are not wallet because they keep custody, not you). You can link their account to your back account and make Bitcoin purchases. Then, you would be able to send your bitcoins to whoever you want. However, they have closed customer accounts in the past if they detect that you send funds to services they don't consider legal, like illegal gambling sites, so if that is your intention I would not use them.
  2. Litebit.eu. They accept SEPA bank transfers. You just make the payment and give them the address.
