But seriously, below are a couple of links for donating crypto for food for people & families in need. Send them some if you can.

https://www.licares.org/donatecryptocurrency/
https://www.foodbanknyc.org/donate/cryptocurrency/
https://www.feedingamerica.org/ways-to-give/bitcoin-cryptocurrency


There are others, but since I am in NY these are the ones I support.



Happy Thanksgiving.

Good idea. I donate regularly, and will probably make an extra donation to one of these organizations. Ideally, these people wouldn't need a donation because they all have a way to fend for themselves, but the world we live in is not ideal, so it's worth dedicating a part of your income to help others.

"Proof of Steak", lol, very good, I like it.

Most probably the altcoiners who cannot even spell correctly Ethereum will not even be noticing you wrote Steak instead of Stake :D :D

Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm asking since i don't live on NY, have you done some research about those research? For example, how big is the operational/advertising overhead?

I can only blame myself for reading the thread wrong. There's so many PoS debates on the forum that you just don't see the word steak as legit. You want to read it as is, but your mind tells you "it's not steak, it's stake, you're seeing wrong" So you think it's another one of those trolls who will say ETH is the new bitcoin and it's so much better than btc because of carbon footprint and if we get rid of it then the glacier temperature will go up by 0.01*C per 10 years.

Good job OP, stakes look delicious. Makes me wanna see them cooked.
I hope you didn't overcook. Post some more food porn for us.

LI Cares is well known here to be legit, Billy Joel is a major fundraiser for it. It's been on LI for years, according to charity navigator 93% percent of program expenses goes towards food

Foodbank NYC is at 94% to food and feedingamerica is about the same.
With LI Cares & Food Bank NYC there are a lot of eyes on them around here so I would think they better then most.

Not really a food porn kind of guy, except for the holidays I tend to eat whatever. Was going for medium-rare, but overshot it a bit not as much red as there should have been. I have never been good cooking thick cuts of meat.

This protocol lacks a lot of details
- cooking time per block
- the size of the steak
- what kind of chain flavors or sauces it supports
- any decentralized grill you recommend
- how many of those did you age in secret before releasing it?

Btw, wasn't it supposed to be Pork of Steak?  ;D

DaveF, You missed the proof of stake. Explained in one image:

Image how would it be if satoshi created bitcoin with PoS, not PoW.

"How do you secure the network?"
"By staking the BTC you just created out of nowhere."

People would just laugh and ignore it.

Yes, I too like Proof of Steak indeed  :D

Though I am surprised that the swarm of PoW-hating trolls have not descended on this thread yet.

Good idea. I donate regularly, and will probably make an extra donation to one of these organizations. Ideally, these people wouldn't need a donation because they all have a way to fend for themselves, but the world we live in is not ideal, so it's worth dedicating a part of your income to help others.

"Proof of Steak", lol, very good, I like it.

I should probably start work on making a "Proof of Steak" Bitcoin Core based on the newly released version 24.0 now  ;)

Or maybe I can write the Proof of Steak whitepaper and email it to Chris Larsen as the next big thing.

One year bump. Since it's Thanksgiving.

But with all the crap still going on in the world, if you can afford to donate to those in need please do.
