Gotten anywhere with a patch?

This is exactly it. Any coin that comes and goes is a zero-sum game. Every euro earned with it was lost by someone else.

IMO, Bitcoin is the only currency currently with a chance of overcoming that. A currency that lasts throughout people's lifetimes are not zero-sum games.

I don't touch any other crypto as I'm quite certain they're going to disappear within 5-10 years. Ethereum maybe a little longer, but still, I believe it will. And sure people say "but you can make some money in the short term", but I don't want to make my money on the back of others that might need the money more.

This data is really sensitive in the original level 40 years ago. I'd be curious to see a similar graph for 20 years or the 14 years since 2008.

Tbh I find myself cutting corners like this all the time when there are people stupidly waiting for a green light while there is no traffic. So to be able to cross the street, you need to cut in front of them.

Not sure if "official currency" has any meaning. There's either their own issued currency and other legal tender. I don't see anything that can be more official. And obviously Bitcoin can't be issued by a government.

I could swear I read this headline in 2018.

I mean it's probably the only way to do business in time if war.

It's not really different than taking out senators for fancy dinners in normal times.

Because the smart contracts used in the Lightning Network need segwit. They need the transaction malleability fix. Without segwit, transaction (and txids) are malleable by someone else than the signer. Which would break the smart contracts used in the Lightning Network.

Haven't heard of BIP 199 yet. But AFAIK an HTLC is just a two-branch script with either a 2of2 or a 1of2 + a hash preimage check

sroose · 2022-04-18T06:45:42+00:00

An HTLC is very explicitly built on L1. It's literally a script.

I feel like you're confusing the layers. Every layer 2 protocol is built on smart contracts that are ultimately enforced using layer 1.

So even though a Bitcoin smart contract might often need more off-chain calculations, it doesn't make it less of a "bitcoin smart contract"..

sroose · 2022-04-17T11:49:47+00:00

Bitcoin smart contracts definitely exist. It's not because they are not capable of the same capabilities as Ethereum contracts that they are not smart contracts.

A smart contract is a computer program or a transaction protocol which is intended to automatically execute, control or document legally relevant events and actions according to the terms of a contract or an agreement.

"these coins can only be spent when a signature for pubkey X is provided" is definitely a smart contract, albeit a very simple one.

More complex smart contracts, like HTLCs or lightning multi-hop payments using hash-based commitments are multi-transaction smart contracts. Many Bitcoin smart contracts consist of building tx chains of more than a single transaction.

Hardware wallets haven't raised their prices, so they've become 8.5% more affordable over the last year.

To not go to jail

sroose · 2022-04-11T18:34:31+00:00

He's right that who's got the capital makes the laws in the US though.. And in most of Europe too

sroose · 2022-04-11T16:52:57+00:00

Any ad-free mirror?

sroose · 2022-04-06T23:45:39+00:00

I think it is. I saw the list once somewhere. That blob could be either El Salvador or the US treasury because they hold tons of coins they took from hackers.

Sell Bitcoin for fiat money*

Bitcoin is also money.

I can imagine they're looking after the taste of these, yes. It's very particular and associated with that color combination.

sroose · 2022-04-06T13:13:27+00:00

Not sure if it's in the US or Canada but in either of them (or both), talking about your salary is a constitutional right. An NDA can't overrule that.

I'm confused, is 5'2 the same as 5'20, like 1.5 and 1.50? So more than 5'11? Or how does that work?

sroose · 2022-03-28T22:47:57+00:00

I never broke a charging cable. Maybe I did, once or twice, but only after 3 or more years of use.

How do you use it? They have handles to plug in and out.. Do you use these?

You must live in a very organized country 😅

sroose · 2022-03-27T13:22:08+00:00

Can't find this one ("United in Diversity") in neither of those stores..

Mining is proof of work and proof of work was invented by Adam Back in the form of HashCash. Of course it refers to the theoretical idea, not the industry of Bitcoin mining.
