670XBT bought with 580k$. Some actions again

But this week it is growing significantly slower than before

Only 80XBT bought yesterday with 80k$.

最好開一個專區吧

Again, no bitcoin bought yesterday. People are scared away?

Sorry, should be 30XBT with 20k$. Since the minimum investment is 250k$ I think this just rounding error

Only 30XBT bought with 200k$. After the Chinese news and weekend crash people are sitting on the sidelines and watch

No bitcoin bought yesterday. The 30XBT is just rounding error. After the Chinese news and weekend crash people are sitting on the sidelines and watch

About 400XBT bought with 0.37M$

I am not sure if I get it correct, but I think we can implement it like this:

1. Let say there are two miners, Alice and Bob, finding blocks of the same height at almost the same time.

2. All miners see both blocks. However, some see Alice's block first, some see Bob's block first.

3. Those seeing Alice's block first will by default mine on top of Alice's block. However, they will also include Bob's block header in the coinbase. (The hash for the previous block could be omitted to save some space)

4. Those seeing Bob's block will similarly put Alice's block header in the coinbase.

5. No matter what the next block is building on, the header of the orphaned block is permanently and irreversibly recorded in the blockchain.

6. The total PoW of the chain should also count the orphaned blocks, given that they satisfy the difficulty. The actual content of the orphaned block is irrelevant since it is only used as a confirmation to the previous block.

There is a drawback: In case there is a fork, SPV nodes have to read the coinbases in order to determine the longest chain. With 1 second blocks that would mean tons of branches and SPV nodes may have some trouble.

I think it is quite workable. We may even implement it without changing the rules first, and see how it works out. It would help strengthening the network even if we keep the 10 minutes block

About 980XBT bought with 0.98M$ on 5 Dec

The original announcement is here. I will translate it but please give me a few hours.

In order to protect the property rights and interests of the public, to protect the legal status of the Chinese yuan, to prevent money laundering risks, and to maintain financial stability, the People's Bank of China, Ministry of Information Industry, China Banking Regulatory Commission, China Securities Regulatory Commission, and China Insurance Regulatory Commission jointly issued a "Notice on guard against the risk of bitcoin".

The "Notice" clarifies the status of bitcoin. It states bitcoin is not issued by a monetary authorities and is not a mandatory legal tender, and therefore is not a real currency. By its nature, bitcoin should be a specific virtual commodity, and does not have the legal status of currency, cannot and should not be used as currency on the market. However, general public may trade bitcoin on the internet by taking their own risk.

The "Notice" requires, at this stage, financial institutions and payment institutions may not denominate product or service in bitcoin, may not trade bitcoin, may not act as a central counterparty in bitcoin trading, may not offer insurance product associated with bitcoin, may not provide direct or indirect bitcoin-related services to customers, including: registering, trading, settling, clearing services; accepting bitcoin  or use bitcoin as a clearing tool; trading bitcoin with CNY or foreign currencies; storing, escrowing, and mortgaging of bitcoin; issuing bitcoin-related financial instructments; using bitcoin as a investment target for trusts and funds.


TBC

It is only financial institution can't involve bitcoin. Other business like Starbucks can accept it

1. People have freedom to trade bitcoin at their own risk

2. Financial institutions and payment processors cannot offer bitcoin-related service

3. Other business are not mentioned. Based on the previous 2 points, I can't see why Starbucks can't accept bitcoin.

People can still trade and spend bitcoin. Exchanges will be regulated, not banned. ONLY financial institutions can not touch it.

不過就是說銀行等金融机构和支付机构不得參與bitcoin活動, 其它人都有自由參與. 交易平台要備案, 反洗黑錢. 我覺得很正面吧?

This is COMPLETELY wrong. It only targets financial institutions, i.e. banks, insurance companies, etc.

No. You Western guys completely misunderstood the news. To me, this is actually BULLISH!

TL;DR, the document says:

1. Bitcoin is a virtual commodity, not a real currency

2. People have the freedom to trade bitcoin, but they need to take their own risk

3. At this stage, financial institutions cannot denominate services and products in bitcoin, cannot trade bitcoin, cannot run bitcoin exchange, cannot provide bitcoin related services, cannot store bitcoin for clients, cannot establish bitcoin trust or fund, etc.

4. Bitcoin exchanges must be registered, and follow AML and KYC rules

This means major Chinese bitcoin exchanges like BTCChina will stay. You just won't see any Chinese bitcoin ETF anytime soon.

There are so many off-topics discussion on this board and it seems the mods are tired of cleaning it up. I think changing its name to "Bitcoin Protocol Discussion" would help a little bit
