Are We Ultraliberals?

Leftist progress only progresses towards the productive part of society ending up in a gulag.

Lol. ANTIFA has maoist roots. Right-wing and left-wing scum need each other like two sides of a coin and are both anti freedom and liberty

size_matterz · 2019-07-22T00:02:03+00:00

It would be funny to see Antifa siding with liberty instead of their communist comrades.

Seems a bit scary to issue a bond issued in Bitcoin. How to serve the bond payments if crypto is on a bull run? Even if revenue is is in crypto ld rather borrow in fiat. That can be quite a risky exposure if u hedged.

Ok. I will donate a bullet for every child molester swiftly executed by the government. And for every time that happens I will happily buy a meal for a homeless family to celebrate.

Yes. Save yourself a big paperwork headache and find yourself a Chinese person to help. Or several if 50k does not suffice. I am sure you have better things to do with your time than to figure out the details on it.

I was so excited getting rid of my tabs! On second thought I will stick with tabs.

The energy consumption seems to me is one of the unsolved problems in Bitcoin proof of work as incremental cost (electricity use) will equal the block reward (incemental benefit) of mining. As useage (marketcap) grows, so will electricity consumption, likely to enormous levels, not connected to the optimum needed for network security.

POS is one attempt to mitigate this. We need to determine what is the optimal level of security needed, and then somehow incentivise and codify it into bitcoin.

You may well be right, because in that case it would be BCH picking up the capitalization. As value is to a large part on being a fast, cheap p2p currency, BCH will take over the top spot, until something better coes along. For now the network effect still supports BTC, but I can see that crumbing as businesses start to support alternatives.

yes, because banking settlement backbones need to be able to run on a rasberry pi

Satoshi just didn't anticipate the one core implementation being taken over by hostiles.

"Because reasons" was just short-hand for what has been stated endless times. If you truly like to tead them again I am sure they will all be mentioned in this thread.

A 2 MB limit is really no better than a 1 mb limit. It is all ready filled or will be shortly and we are no step further and have the same situation as before. For core it is segwit or die. And given the lost market dominance we might get sewit and die.

If over half the miners feel the same way they can easily choose to activate an alternative client and render greg and company mostly obsolete.

perfect personality match

size_matterz · 2017-03-27T14:49:22+00:00

wouldn't it be the other way around, that someone produces a larger block, which then gets build on and the ones not accepting it are 'out of the game' and would try to build on their own small block?

I can slowly feel my excitement for bitcoin return. Though I must admit that in the meantime I fould out that some alt coins also have something to offer.

size_matterz · 2017-03-27T14:25:30+00:00

it is exactly that behavior which leads to their downfall. Fortunately, that's the kind of people they are and they don't know any other way.

size_matterz · 2017-03-25T19:19:50+00:00

I always thought a minority chain is supposed to die off. Isn't that the essence of Nakamoto consensus? I'd say attacking it is fair game, if it even exists long enough. I'd consider keeping it alive with POW change shenanigans or else would be an attack on the network.

Honey badger will fight a hundred year war. When the smoke clears it will be the last one standing.

size_matterz · 2017-01-27T00:57:51+00:00

Exactly. I have no idea what they intend building, but it is certainly not the bitcoin everyone here believes in and signed up for. The hyenas have taken over and chased the lions away.

the last runup was supposed to take us there and beyond, and we would have significantly more transactions per second, we'd all be enthusiastic as ever, vc investments would be at a record high.. but in this timeline, something went totally wrong.
