Title: The Blockchain is indentical to a Fiat Ledgered System, Post by: Bitcoinpro on November 16, 2014, 05:38:16 AM its basically an automated process where every time a person uses fiat they note the serial number on a website either where they received the fiat
ATM, Bank, Supermaket, Casino or where they spent it Supermarket, Drugs, Booze, Plane Ticket, Rent, Casino this would also keep track of money creation, through house loans, printing etc also its reverse functionality is to be able to keep track of assets so if you also ledgered what items your money was spend on, ie food, fuel, rent, gold etc Title: Re: The Blockchain is indentical to a Fiat Ledgered System, Post by: Bitcoinpro on November 16, 2014, 05:46:34 AM Wut? ??? no Fiat ledgered system exists if thats WUT u mean, im saying in essence thats what a blockchain is a secured ledgered system, thats how anyone has ever described it, so your fake confusion is way over the top! im just trying to compare it to what it would be if it was done with fiat, the only reason a fiat ledger could not replicate it is because its not secured by networking and cryptography Title: Re: The Blockchain is indentical to a Fiat Legered System, Post by: Bitcoinpro on November 16, 2014, 05:49:15 AM Wut? ??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ultLPNj-a8Y Title: Re: The Blockchain is indentical to a Fiat Ledgered System, Post by: lihuajkl on November 16, 2014, 02:17:17 PM There are critical differences as well,such as decentralization, cryptology, anonymity etc.

You might be able to use blockchain for this. But the difference is that bitcoin is artificially limited, credit has no limit

There is no analogue to a bank note's serial number in Bitcoin. In your "fiat ledgered system" it would be theoretically possible to check the entire history of any particular bank note (which addresses it's visited). The same simply cannot be done in general for Bitcoin's UTXOs (unspent transaction outputs). Indeed, asking of a UTXO which addresses the corresponding bitcoins have visited doesn't even truly make sense.

The serial number of note will be impossible to be recorded once you are spending them. Any bank notes' whereabouts is unknown to any one.Title: Re: The Blockchain is indentical to a Fiat Ledgered System, Post by: arbitrage001 on November 19, 2014, 09:01:47 AM There are critical differences as well,such as decentralization, cryptology, anonymity etc. I think most people are beginning to see bitcoin is not anonymous and becoming increasing centralized. As for cryptology, there are many other coins offering the same feature.

As for cryptology, there are many other coins offering the same feature. Btc is not anonymous by itself, but it can be anonymous if proprely used. FIAT transaction cannot be anon, unless you use physical cash. Also, decentralization can be achieved with btc, with fiat u need a central bank, no matter what. these are big differences.. |
