Only by the community taking a stand and refusing to acknowledge IPO/ICO crypto can this trend be reversed.
The greater community already has. The masses don't adopt nor buy any of the altcoins. There isn't a problem. It is just a few fools here who like to give their money away. Including yourself. Nice how your closed the Sia thread so I couldn't rebut you. |

Furthermore, ArcadeCity does not use ETH for payment. Cash, credit card, debit, and Paypal are accepted. The Ethereum integration is primarily to sell tokens to drivers, i.e. a way to do public offering (let's hope they comply with SEC regulations): Arcade City will use Ethereum to issue ‘crypto-equity’ to drivers, allowing them to own up to 100% of the company by 2020. It has nothing to do with using Ethereum to enable some new technology that improves upon Uber. It is about governance and creating a copycoin P&D in the Uber space. |

Maybe so, but I so know how a smart contract works. After your feeble statement I'm not sure you do.

Erm... If the app keeps track of drivers journeys
And my point is there is no way to reach objective consensus on the driver's journeys. Read my prior post again and try to understand it, because it flew right over your head. You n00bs don't even have a fucking clue at all about the technology. Consensus is not needed, just details of the journey and rate. As an astute, brilliant and seasoned developer I would have assumed you knew that. Incorrect. You go learn something and come back when you are not totally ignorant. Btw, as I explained in the Ethereum Paradox thread about other proposed Ethereum applications, if you just want the customer and the driver to agree on what has been delivered and record a payment, then you only need multi-sig for that which can be done with Bitcoin. If you want an objective consensus on other facts, then a block chain can't do that because a block chain is only objective about the longest chain rule and nothing external to the block chain.

I've just learnt that you are not as brilliant as you like to believe. Your disease is known as the Dunning-Kruger syndrome. I am sure everyone would be thrilled if you were to attempt (and fail) to explain all the technical facts. |

Re: Best ethereum dapps?
Decentralized butthole reamer ETH. So many speculators will get theirs cleaned out. |

MOVED: ItchyCrotchCoin announces Etheram-based token Smegma
mprep is a fucking dweeb and he can lick my butt hole. He has allowed the Altcoin Discussion forum to be destroyed with noise from pumpers. The board is entirely useless. That is the FACTUAL point (and protest) of the sarcasm. BAN ME PLEASE! PERMANENTLY! This forum is dying. |

There is no way for a smart contract to form an objective consensus about events that occur external to a block chain. All voting is a power vacuum that fails due to the Iron Law of Political Economics. This press release is bullshit with no adoption and is merely to sell more ETH tokens to fools. Augur and Slock.it and 99% of the apps/contracts announced for Ethereum are so flawed they can never work. |

[I don't know what ether is/ how its supposed to work but i know its the future will work despite smarter people than me explaining why it won't work in words I can't comprehend; and I am sure of this because Vitalik is a 20-year old genius who never made software before in his life and because Ethereum can do anything because Vitalik and Szabo said so]
Btw afaik Szabo never made any software in his life either. Don't bother to consider the knowledge of people who have actually made software that shipped to millions of users. Nick Szabo's LinkedIn is blank: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-szabo-93565212

There is no way for a smart contract to form an objective consensus about events that occur external to a block chain. Besides there rates will need to be set by a consensus of drivers. If you haven't noticed, it is the drivers who are destroying Uber. All voting is a power vacuum that fails due to the Iron Law of Political Economics. This press release is bullshit with no adoption and is merely to sell more ETH tokens to fools. Augur and Slock.it and 99% of the apps/contracts announced for Ethereum are so flawed they can never work. Logic 101: Only someone mentally challenged could post a clip of an aircraft crashing

Clickbait nonsense title. It's not undergoing anything, it's just means Eth is potentially open to a 51% attack.
It's not open to an attack, Butkerin will just simply issue a checkpoint and any attacks will be mitigated. How do you issue a checkpoint against an ongoing 51% attack? The 51% attacker has more hashrate than any fork you create, so there is no way to fork away from it. Vitalik would need to issue every block ongoing. Thus there would be no more mining and it would be 100% centralized like Visa. The lie about the community will get organized to defend against a 51% attack is a delusion. The only way I can see to defend is to change the hash function, but the other honest GPU miners aren't probably going to agree. |

The question is whether there needs to be any "reward" at all (assuming that you don't require increasing costs of hardware and electricity in order to run a full node).
As I see it, unless there is a trust based model like PoS, rational participants do not act in the benefit of the chain as a whole because the timely confirmation incentive is ill defined in a system with no rewards. What I believe monsterer is describing is that no miner has incentive to mine as quickly as possible onto the longest chain if they are not risking income by not doing so. I am of course aware of this. I will not comment about my design to which monsterer is referring to in the OP, until he properly credits me for being the one who proposed such a design. I will not reward plagiarists who don't cite the prior art. Theft is not a paradigm for success. |

rokki, CoinCube has been generalizing my musings to comprise more sociology, biology, and evolutionary theory and economics. He can probably reiterate a link to his new thread, which also contains some back links to upthread discussion. I am having difficulty keeping up lately due to a focus on the following (and on treating my chronic health issue): I think you leaving this forum would be a loss. I know you are a "true believer", and there are very fewer people of that mindset left in crypto. It's nice to see someone sticking to their convictions.
I'm still reading. I just don't want to fight the same argumentative battles over and over again. This forum is victor to least weary. A battle of attrition by one man trying to argue with a continuous stream of newbies, is just an insane waste of productivity that could be more valuable if applied on development work. I know you are a "true believer", and there are very fewer people of that mindset left in crypto.
I do not believe we can make a system that is resistant to government. What I am shooting for now is to make a system that is so fucking popular and also decentralized, that it becomes the political choice. And hoping the people then say to the government, "don't touch my internet, I like it the way it is now where I can pay anyone anytime without permission or interference". |
