Stay up to date on all things crypto and blockchain

I don't usually hassle my family and friends about bitcoin but I've made formal recommendations to them twice.

556.771 bits u/tippr

where did CSW get all his hash power from? I don't know much, but I always thought Jihan and Roger Ver had loads of hash all mining BCH ABC...

Good luck guys. Good hunting.

Everything went smooth?

I know I'm repeating myself, but yes, we did it! ;)

Good

Please no hiccups, pretty please!

What's so exciting about this? The limit is moving up and the OP codes are being re-enabled. You realize that BCash blocks are currently about 80 Kb, right? Who cares if the limit is over 35,000% above current usage? You think people are just going to magically want to use it all of the sudden and blocks are suddenly going to get bigger?

This place is so far bought into the forgone conclusion that BCash is the best thing ever that nobody seems to be thinking critically about how this upgrade means basically nothing and the coin will likely be dumped again around the 15th.

woop woop! u/tippr 100 bits

Heute morgen ~4Uhr hab ich die ersten tx gemacht. Solche tx-Zeiten gehen halt auch nur mit 40tx/block. War aber nett. Ich dump trotzdem meine BCH.

Rather use litecoin.

Exciting times are ahead for all. Oh boy

Curious how you made exactly the same post as another user at almost exactly the same time.

There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.

the fork happens as soon as the first block over 1mb mined. that can goes hours

Coin dance are great. They've supported all directions of the forks, sticking to showing useful information. Not just Bitcoin Cash, but also UASF, and Segwit... etc. Great job!

Looks bit weird in mobile safari some text overlaping on each other

Wow very nice! Thank you

Wasn't there a dude not long ago who got 1000 btc frozen on binance? Although I'm sure his circumstances were different.

why would someone sell so much on open markets and drop the price?

OTC is the best choice (right now)

Ayyy ponzi poppin'

If they were intending to sell they'd keep it on the exchange not move it off the exchange, to a safe, long-term storage. Looks like someone intends to HOLD a shitload of btc. Probably saw the current trend and said "fuck it" moved it all out of exchanges and won't bother moving back until improved times.

The title is misleading. Looks like someone bought on Binance during the dip and moved to a private wallet (most likely cold storage). So most likely it will not be a sell off, but the opposite (long term HODL). This is actually bullish AF. You don't just spend $600M if you don't know what you're doing.

​

What is the other address ? If it's not an exchange it means nothings, there is dozen transaction like that every day.

That's like 20 pizzas worth? (At one point)

Not the time to be selling I would of thought - and if you were selling you’d be transferring to an exchange wallet - not out of. Most likely option cold storage.

Moving it out of Binance does not equal sell off

They moved it from binance to a unknown wallet, it look like they bought and they are keeping. Bull run coming.

Im praying bitcoin dumps hard!!! Seriously not even angry seeing my portfolio drowning. Gonna load up

here comes the big one!!

Throw it into alts XD

God I hope so! I need me some cheap Bitcoin.

Yeahh

Well dump it all while we are at it so we bottom out sooner.

At this point it doesnt even make a diff tbh...

Sell-off coming?? Pretty sure it’s here.

Do it! Please! I want more discounts!

CRW coming through on his threat perhaps? 😬

The reason why atheism is correct is not because it is more ‘’logical’’, but rather atheism can create a gun.

Say I can create a gun to terminate you, if you no longer exist, what rights do you have to discuss about what is right and what is wrong.

This is probably the most nonsensical statement I have ever read.

More like hash sissyfights fucking over the entire market.

A superb analysis of the Hash Wars.
Thank you for submitting it!

Jiang knows what's up

Quite obviously written by a miner pushing his agenda to make hashrate the single deciding factor.

The rest of the network gets to vote as well!!

I think several things are missed in this analysis. I think attacker would not mine empty blocks unnecessarily.

If I was CSW, my goal would be to make ABC miners give up voluntarily on DSV-txes because their blocks with DSV-txes are being orphaned with high probability.

CSW can achieve this as follows: if any ABC miner releases a block with DSV-txes, CSW would release two (pre-mined) blocks in succession containing a double spend tx for at least one of the DSV-txes included by ABC miner. Since CSW chain is longer, ABC block with DSV-tx becomes orphaned.

Above double-spend can be achieved as follows: CSW would release a DSV-tx to all miners, but work on an unreleased double-spend tx. CSW may choose to mine mostly empty blocks here for latency advantage.

If 90% of blocks with DSV-txes are being orphaned over a period of time, ABC miners would give up on DSV because they are losing their money. Note that, ABC miners wouldn't know which DSV-txes are potentially poisoned, so their only choice is to treat every DSV-tx as potentially double spent.

I think this would be a long game and there won't be any chain split.

So, basically, they'll support whoever wins, even if it's a dictator.

Their stance is not clear though, since you can't know who's "willing to invest more hashrate and capital" while the war is still ongoing and reorgs are happening. Should we interpret that they'll just not mine BCH until the dust settles?

This. Everyone should read this.

Very interesting, thanks

Honest miners can also just mine the honest chain with lower hash rate, which renders the attack useless.

You should tag this as "Article", it has very interesting content besides the sentence you quote. Zhuoer expects this hash war to be quite big.

Sadly, this reads like some war strategies from Europe's world wars.

A virtual hash war sounds nice and fun, but what happens if people get hurt in the real world because of the amount of money and ideologies that are involved in this? Craig's twitter doesn't sound like a nice tea party anymore. He threatens more than one community(BTC, BCH other PoW coins) with a combined market cap of > 100 billion?

Good read. If what CSW wants truly is a P2P e-cash system I hope he actually does give up if he loses the hash war.

Excellent resource! Thanks for that!

Bitmain defending should push up the price of BCH, meaning that while they burn BCH, the BCH also goes up in value.

Calvin does not have 1 million BCH coins, so he will be burning fiat.

But ABCs manufactured narrative!!

I have only skimmed this article just now but my initial impression is that this is a good analysis of the situation with lots of figures, estimates and calculations to predict what might happen. I'll read it in more detail later.

A small miner cannot win this war alone and if they vote for the losing side they could risk losing a lot of money. I can imagine that many miners just want this war to end as soon as possible to remove the risk that they are mining worthless tokens. If you don't care too much who wins then the best way to end the war quickly is to join the side with the greater hash rate as BTC.top indicates.

Heap, a musician who has worked with stars including Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift, is one of a growing number of blockchain innovators who are attempting to push the boundaries in terms of how this still-emerging technology might be used.

Blockchain developers are now experiencing fierce demand and can expect to earn up to $158,000 in the US. But blockchain faces problems too.

Currently blockchain transactions require huge amounts of computing power and energy while the networks that underpin blockchains can only perform a limited number of transactions in a day.

Sure, the guaranteed royalties sounds nice, but it's not actually guaranteed unless you can depend upon a stable exchange rate. Which may happen someday, but we're not there yet.

Is there working BetterHash code?

I see the github repo, but has anyone actually used it?

Edit: I guess I could try to get it going.

/u/TheBlueMatt any advice?

This is old news
If you want to post about BetterHash, please find out the current implementation status

“lmao got em”? I see now; you’re an adolescent troll.

Tell you what: move to China and try to buy property. Know what you’ll get? A lease between you and the State that the State can break at any time, without notice, for no reason that you need to know about. And why is that? Because the State confiscated everything in the early 20th century.

What caused the largest man-made famine on record? Communism. When Mao decided all farm equipment should be melted down in order to beat Great Britain in steel production, farmers had no choice. They complied or died. What they ended up producing was useless pig iron, and then had no way to grow crops. So they died anyway. In fact roughly 45 million people perished in the ensuing famine.

So I say again...Yay, communism! /s

Go away, little one.

Well food is a factor here the Chinese move right into Venezuela and start the crazy socialist shit just like Hitler did with the hungry people in germany same MO different day isnt it great if you're free thinker you get to starve to death under this deal yippee Venezuela and China perfect together oh and now China will have a foothold in this hemisphere more fucking greatness

"The following year, when he raised concerns with Venezuelan officials, Daquin told Reuters, he was detained, beaten and extorted by intelligence agents. They knocked several teeth out with a handgun and accused him of treasonous behavior, Daquin said, prompting him to flee the country. Government spokespeople had no comment on Daquin’s account."

This is what a real refugee looks like.

There comes a point where you just gotta open a pack o' marshmallows, and roast em over that dumpster fire.

It was said, in 2015 by an obscure person, that it always gets worse with Venezuela.

There, at the headquarters of Chinese telecom giant ZTE Corp, they learned how China, using smart cards, was developing a system that would help Beijing track social, political and economic behavior.

10 years after the Shenzhen trip, Venezuela is rolling out a new, smart-card ID known as the "Carnet de la patria," or "Fatherland card." The ID transmits data about cardholders to computer servers.

The technology Daquin and colleagues learned about in Shenzhen underpinned what would become China's "Social Credit System." The still-evolving system, part of which uses "Smart citizen cards" developed by ZTE, grades citizens based on behavior including financial solvency and political activity.

I think it's funny that it's the "Fatherland card" considering South America was the home to escaping Nazis after WW2.

Those fucking assholes. Why the fuck did we exempt them from the sanctions anyway?

We knew this shit was going to eventually happen. And it's going to keep happening all over the developing world thanks to China's investment (which will come with a healthy dose of censorship friendly network infrastructure, along with backdoors allowing Chinese spying).

I wonder what will be the role of the West in all of this.

Alright. ZTE Stock bought.

Venezuela telling me where to invest in capitalism.

How many databases track the behavior of US Citizens and how much more advanced are they than this? Look at Facebook visual recognition technology or Google targeted ads for a couple minor examples.
