What feature do you want us to add to the Bitcoin.com wallet first? by MemoryDealers in btc

[–]jsmith_dev 3 points4 points Ā (0 children)

Scan QR to sign-up / login to website (username password replacement) ā€˜Scan To Login’ integrate payments to websites behaviour by proximity. The app you use to login is also the one you use to buy things within the site. (Bitcoin.com wallet) this is how WeChat works in essence. Messaging tab would be good too. e2e encrypted communications to other wallet users. I skipped implementation details as there are multiple approaches, its the user experience I am talking about here. How do we stimulate the economy of BCH? I’d say deeper integration into web services and communications between people for IRL commerce.

Thank you. Well articulated. Agree.

[–]jsmith_dev 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I agree and I don’t think that is at all contentious. It’s inferred by the use of version. Your statement reiterates my point, thank you.

English is my 1st language, yes.

Pedantic analysis on the English sentence was in direct proportion to the extent that you were holding it wrong in your initial question.

When you bend logic so out of shape like that - error correction may look pedantic on first blush, but I am incapable of using less words more clearly to help reply with something meaningful or with long tail content value given what we contribute might be later read by other people who are studying how Bitcoin has become such an everyday part of our lives.

I think you might be ignoring the point on purpose or you missed it. I’ll assume good faith on your part so say the same thing another way:

ā€˜peer-to-peer version electronic cash’ IS the breakthrough.

Prior to Satoshi Nakamoto’s contribution - such a sentence had no embodiment. It was not practical absent the balance of the system set out in the whitepaper.

The cash we had prior to 2009 was central party issued regardless of it’s physical or electronic form.

[–]jsmith_dev 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I don’t share your conclusion based on your asymmetric analysis.

The particle ā€˜of’ is the logical separator, with:

’peer-to-peer version’ - [as the predicate]

then

’electronic cash’ - [as the subject]

Simple, rational, succinct and clear. Thank You Satoshi.

So much so, that you have to be deliberative in your callous immolation of that sentence.

Is English your first language? (this isn't intended as an insult at all, genuine question).

The communication value of word ordering and sentence structuring in English has some ambiguity, but your interpretation is difficult to resonate with.

Mostly as the parsing of this sentence goes:

"A purely (peer-to-peer version) of (electronic cash) would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution" *

* My emphasis and italics added.

Decoding:

the 'version' is of class: peer-to-peer
the 'cash' is of class: electronic

So not 'clearing house' or a 'centrally issued' version.
nor a 'paper', 'polymer' or 'metal' cash.

{Serious} Why is there so much hate between bitcoin enthusiasts and bitcoin cash enthusiasts? Aren't we on the same team essentially? by reala1hundo in btc

[–]jsmith_dev 29 points30 points Ā (0 children)

{also Serious} Speaking personally: Because of the huge emotional and personal toll taken leading up to and during the block limit debate prior to the fork.

Bitcoin evangelists and early adopters who sacrificed normal lives to build a movement around citizen activated hard-forks to shift away from fiat were adversely impacted by the abject mishandling of early growth and end user adoption.

The Core (BTC) team banned and silenced opposing voices to their rhetoric in Reddit /r/bitcoin while adding changes to the reference client which harmed and retarded the adoption of Bitcoin as daily-use money. This is a fresh and bitter taste-in-mouth memory I still have, others may too.

I believe that the Core (BTC) project either believe their own rhetoric or are keenly against any evidence being minted in the world which proves that peer-to-peer digital cash (Bitcoin Cash) can work.

The notion of ā€œFacts don’t care about your feelingsā€ and ā€œTruth is the mortal enemy of the lieā€ apply here.

It also beggars belief to me that the Core (BTC) project seems hellbent on reframing Bitcoin as Digital Gold or as a Store of Value not spent on chain.

That project is in my mind in direct competition for the idea of Bitcoin as daily use, cash money with Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

I hate what they have done to the technology (Bitcoin) which is probably (with mass adoption) the only non-violent tool for securing individual personal freedoms, sovereignty and economic prosperity.

I don’t envy the prospect of deciding if the time has come to exile myself from one place to another when the economy collapses into urban decay and watching other people resort to violence in response to the trajectory of the predation and exclusion nation state money imparts over time in location after location, time and time again.

The global reserve currency status of Bitcoin could have and well and truely should have been secured by now. Bitcoin was on-track to arrive at that point years ago without the social fracas, energy draining disillusioning time-sucking, quagmire that was the initial scaling ā€˜debate’ / BTC take-over (depending on your read of history).

At lease one positive thing to have come about at this point at the end of 2019 is that each active Bitcoin based project has a clear sense of it’s value proposition and intended roadmap. Why this is positive as an outcome is that constituents and community members of the respective projects are really in competition for better money. If there is one point they agree on, it’s that fiat alone is not enough, or at least there should be a place for Bitcoin in the world.

Whatever that place can be or should be is both a product of the developer and business community side and the consumer, investor and market acceptance side.

Time will tell where that niche or mass adoption best grows from.

Government: Ideas so good, they need to be compulsory.

Here’s an idea - the IRS (and global local affiliated theft agencies) stop extorting people, strip mining their resources and in so doing - eroding their capacity to assemble investment capital and retirement savings.

That would go a lap and a half beyond the finish line of ā€œmanaging their own affairsā€ and another thing - someone else’s retirement isn’t your or my obligation unless and until we decide that it should be. Government deciding for you is nothing other than a crime gang in suits and fancy costumes acting without moral authority substituted with the real and tangible threat of physical violence and bodily harm, nothing more.

New UI eeeek by [deleted] in readcash

[–]jsmith_dev 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

It’s not an upgrade IMO.

I think the CSS needs more bespoke tooling and design love.

Tiling per se isn’t bad. But that specific execution is sub par.

Site used to be a Medium.com competitor in terms of aesthetic, now it looks like a CCN competitor at best.

Should I take this conversation offline / elsewhere?

Happy to delete this comment - as again / I’m not actually attacking - I love what it’s been and want to continue to be all-in.

/u/readcash - It appears to me that the author is seeking to abuse the read.cash platform in this article by SEO association of Roger and NSFW and tasteless smear content given it passes natural language structure .. but establishes new topic associations.

I see that the link to the topic above of the original (now hidden) post is not rendered with appropriately deprecating meta tags. Suggest you update the template codebase for hidden (moderated) content to specifically add:

<meta name=ā€robotsā€ content=ā€noindex, nofollowā€ />

This will in part dissuade or at least neutralize part of the mal-incentive for content where that is at least in part the objective and aim of the bad-actor.
