But before this discussion there was no real spam that was blocked by the 1MB limit. Or was there?

The spam was blocked, there used to be 750 KB limit.

The irony is extreme.
Maybe, just maybe, the thousands of people who moved from /r/bitcoin to /r/btc did so for other reasons than to "manipulate votes from our basements"? Cheesy
You people are beyond belief.

Ironic shill is ironic while ironic so she can shill while she shills.

Just another way to try and discredit bitcoin and create fud.

Any evidence? The way is see it Ethereum could be doing well but I fail to see how exactly it could displace Bitcoin for a long term period.

We all know Ether is pump but why should we worry about Bitcoin itself? It has huge momentum and Bitcoin is big.

We're gonna see this year if there's someone out there trying to stop Bitcoin in it's tracks. But the Classic thing is pretty lame attempt to be honest.

All blocks are stored ....

Really interesting info, thanks a lot
186  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Calling ETH TOP on: March 12, 2016, 06:14:45 PM
Show me a coin with a pump 10x plus over a few days that wasn't followed a monstrous dump. Just one.

This depends on the kind of bagholders there is. The Ethereum media campagin looks really trustworthy, we're likely to see a long term investors.
187  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: bitcoin margin landing , is it safe? on: March 12, 2016, 05:42:13 PM
thanks 

If you believe that storing coins or cash on exchanges is OK and safe, then do it Grin

I wish all involved long and prosperous pump! Grin Grin
189  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Vitalik flee the country after the Eth scheme implodes? on: March 12, 2016, 05:32:37 PM
I hope it lasts well into the BTC halvening. Satisfied bagholders is what we all need.

Hope it won't bust too abruptly. The exit run to cash via Bitcoin could take Bitcoin down  too anyway.

EDIT: About Vitalik I hope he would not be blamed after the dump and would stay around. Charismatic figures a.k.a leaders is one of the thing Bitcoin lacks and the masses need  . Vitalik can supply this role just fine.

We need to consider the inherent risks in the centralization. It's much better if miners represent the central authority than someone else. For example the economic majority, (wallet operators, exchanges) need to have a way to represent their vote on the issue.

It's the establishment playing 'divide et impera'.

And how did you come to this conclusion?
192  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Sent BTC from one wallet to another, transaction confirmed, but BTC not showing on: March 12, 2016, 11:04:38 AM
Any reason for this?

Your funds are actually in the wallet confirmed on the explorer. Check the target address again.
193  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Calling ETH TOP on: March 12, 2016, 11:00:30 AM
I'm calling $73 per Ether top

nice ponzi
195  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach $700 again on: March 12, 2016, 10:08:15 AM
After eating ethereum alive, bitcoin could reach well above a grand

The question is will Ethereum pop or would the bagholders be unaware and we're for a longterm eth decline
196  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We missed the ETH train. on: March 12, 2016, 10:03:24 AM
Lel who cares, the smart money will cash out to Bitcoin eventually

197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miners Behaving Badly? on: March 11, 2016, 09:36:17 PM
Bitcoin's miners are incentivized to produce blocks without fully validating all the transactions they contain.

Can someone elaborate on this problem?


Yes, SPV mining allows to mine with just the previous block header. Transactions on the previous block aren't really checked.

Someone could create invalid block and the next miner would shoot self to the foot.

But this attack is useless, because the attacker also mines invalid block, so both attacker and target have same loss.

199  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: The timely confirmation incentive in a system with no mining rewards on: March 11, 2016, 05:29:40 PM
I won't be wasting even a second of my time thinking about consensus systems without proof of work or without reward.

It's the job of various snake oil sellers, they can implement their paxos or raft and create tokens fiat-style from thin air.

We should discuss how to operate one strong proof of work bitcoin and another strong yet temporary to the moon shitcoin.

The shitcoin 's value after initial pump needs to decrease. This stimulates spending and economic activity.

But to solve the double spend problem, the shitcoin needs to be reorganization-resistant. This is difficult to archieve with tiny hashrate. People can hop around from shitcoin to shitcoin and damage the difficulty. This is a problem I really care about.
200  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 11, 2016, 01:48:40 PM
The actual problem is that there are people out there who think they know better what the cap is supposed to be than Satoshi's 1MB.

Another advantage of the 1MB cap is that once these idiots realize they can't really change it, they will fork off from Bitcoin to their favourite shitcoin, taking their shitty poet shills and useless economic activity with them.
