I'm honestly not sure whether to be gob smacked or laugh at what this thread has devolved into!  Shocked

I PM'ed r0ach and told him I would grateful if he would close the thread. With 25 year olds trolling this forum from their mobile devices while masturbating to porn in the comfortable of their moma's sofabed, I don't think there can be any mature technological discussion.

It is pointless to attempt to discuss technology and attempt to inform others while also sharing and learning from each other.

With all the vaporware and hyped technological delusion that populates the altcoin arena (and that includes your eMunie and my vaporcoin), those projects with actual currently best-of-class implementation get drowned out when they attempt be respectful and less noisy as they have been lately (e.g. Monero).

If anything the $15 million Ethereum has wasted would ostensibly have produced more if it had been invested in Monero so the community could donate more to developers to improve it.

In the real world of stock securities, normally companies have to produce something with the first round of funding. But in this manipulated reality where the insiders control the float and can do insider trading without facing the jail time that normally accompanies such practices, then all sense of reality is lost and we are back to laissez-faire 1800s where snake oil salesmen regularly defrauded the unwary.

All those buying ETH and along for the ride attempting to defraud their brothers who are less savvy, are not in this arena to better our society and each other by rewarding production and a meritocracy, but rather to steal from each other just as Socialism taught them to do. This is a dysfunctional society that will crash and burn.

If some random 25 year old thinks he can beat up a 51 year old man, I will make an example of him about the way men used to be and the way she-men are now. If stoat was even half the athlete that is required to beat me up, he wouldn't write like a scared bitch. Just like that 190cm foreigner in the mall the other day who tried to fuck with me in the line of grocery store here in Davao and I challenged him to step outside and he was shivering in his fucking boots because he suddenly realized he was dealing with something he did not expect, when I got right in his face eyes-to-eyes. He looked into my eyes and realized this is the real world.

You are the one who keeps threatening to fight me.  Huh

Anyway i'm going to bed you complete helmet.

I didn't threaten you. I challenged you. Please learn to employ the English language accurately.

As predicted, you are incapable of doing anything but slobber noise out of your useless mouth.

I am 100% serious about the challenge. I am only 64 kg right now and reasonably unathletic due to illness. You should come asap to maximize your chances. No one here will fault you for fighting an older and ill (perhaps soon cured) man, because I have challenged you and belittled your manliness. Thus to defend your British English honour, you should show up and uphold your British superiority against a ragtag, degenerate Cherokee native American mixed blood with various European blood lines.

If there is one thing filipinos hate with a fierce passion, and that is a boastful do-nothing motherfucker. Especially the one who hurls stones hiding behind banana trees. You are lucky I only want to challenge you to duel with gloves. My former maid's father killed 3 men for being boastful. He hacked them to pieces with a machete.

On the radio, there is a continual reminder to "think before you post". Perhaps idiot you should stop thinking that posting from your mobile phone is a video game. There are real people on the other side.

This was a non-emotional, rational technological discussion thread until you trolls turned it into a juvenile attack on my honor.

P.S. I have nothing in particular against Vitalik and the other inexperienced kids who are developing Casper. You trolls want to turn a technological discussion into some ridiculous comparison of a person's body shape and clothing.
2083  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Ethereum Paradox on: March 04, 2016, 12:36:14 AM
Are you seriously suggesting i fly to the philipines so you can film me beating you up?

You are too chicken shit to show up. Instead you want to do everything behind anonymity of the internet.

Show up and stop selling vaporware as you always do. If you think you can beat me up, then do it.

If you are half my age, then all the more the motivation for me. Please show up. I relish this.

Prove you are a man, who can put action behind your words.

Show me an airplane ticket so I can go down to GenSan and explain the situation to Manny Pacquiao and ask him if I can train at his gym.
2084  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Ethereum Paradox on: March 04, 2016, 12:32:22 AM
Just for the record if you ever tried to fight me you'd get your face smashed in.

Prove it. Since you are so rich from pumping ETH, surely you can afford a vacation over to Davao and we will video the boxing match.

I guarantee you that it doesn't matter if you are 200 cms and built like Hulk Hogan. It won't help you in a fight against me. I am fiercer than your worst nightmare and I will literally go crazy until you are beaten to a pulp.

You're a silly person.

That is what I thought. All talk and no action. Chicken shit.

I am completely serious about challenging you to a boxing match. Also then we can identify you for future legal action against you.

Do not feed the panic-stricken trolls who want naive greater fools to buy fake price and volume during the interim time until Casper fails.
the only greater fool here is you. You are a grown ass man yet act like an toddler.

I've seen your picture and you look dopey as fuck.  And you dress like a manchild.  No wonder you ran off to the philipines. I bet lifes easier when people kowtow to you just for being white.  Probably a sex tourist.
Lets get down to business,i got my popcorn.
@TPTB_need_war whats your response to that ?

My response to you trolls is have the courage to put your real name and location in public so all the bagholders know where to find you.

And to your inane, juvenile personal insults (which are entirely devoid of any technological literacy), I challenge you to say it to me in front of my face, so I can rearrange your physical comprehension of the world around you. Since mature technological debate is outside the realm of relevance for juvenile cavemen such as you two.

Isn't ironic that only stupider-than-barbacued-turds cavemen would use clothing and dopey appearance as an attack when their hero Vitalik looks similar to the guy on the front page of MAD magazine, further exaggerated with shriveled arms and he dresses sometimes in clothing that is feminine. Not that I place any significant weight on clothing and body proportions when evaluating technological and software prowress, but apparently cavemen do.
2087  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Ethereum Paradox on: March 04, 2016, 12:14:46 AM
you're basically required to ask yourself, is Vitalik an order of magnitude smarter than Satoshi?


My answer to that is..........YES "The boys a genius"  Grin Grin Grin Grin

Dropped out of college. Has never accomplished any major software project with actual users in his life.

This thread has explained his technological ignorance. He has been made aware of this thread and has not yet addressed any of the technological issues.

What evidence do you have for your claim  Huh

Of course you are trolling, and if you do it again, you will go on Ignore with the rest of ETH pumpers.

This is a technological discussion thread, and you pumpers are injecting irrelevant noise. Not one single technology rebuttal from any of your ETH pumpers yet, because you are all technological ILLITERATES.
2088  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should we make a new discussion forum exclusively for smoking the Ether? on: March 04, 2016, 12:05:37 AM
Haven't seen any Ethereum pump threads. Isn't it more likely that there are more threads because this fantastic technology has great utility and is making the news?

You are either a liar, haven't read the Ethereum Paradox thread, or are technologically illiterate. Which is it?

In any case, I and others think we should give you your own silly, exclusive "Ethereum To Da Moon" circle-jerk masturbation, lunch money grabbing subforum where you can share your dysfunction with others who are as dysfunctional as you are. "Hey ma, this is easier than stealing candy from toddlers".

And stop annoying and spamming us who are serious and technologically literate. And stop you idiots from making a mockery of the Altcoin Discussion subforum and a mockery of block chain technology, research, and development. You'd have your very own subforum which you can turn into the idiotic and embarrassing, juvenile fuck fest you desire.

I wonder when MA will clue in on that Trump is fracturing the Republican party which will enable Hillary Clinton to win the Presidency.

[...]

As I predicted he would:

It seems the elite Republicans want Trump to exit the Republican Party and become Independent for they would rather hand it all to Hillary to ensure their rank and career political status. The fear Trump will be an outsider who will trim the sails of government and reduce wasteful spending that feeds their friends and family, is just too much for them to accept.

Do not reply to the panic-stricken technologically illiterate trolls.

Can we respond to the literate ones?

Did we fail to?

I don't believe you responded to me yet

This was addressed:

How about for proof just go run a DApp? There are plenty of smart contracts out there live and functioning on the network right now.

Capser is for scaling.

Here:

Sorry, a bit more precise: Is casper the  base for the Smart contract executor?

No...   smart contracts are already a reality without Casper.

https://etherchain.org/contracts

Smart contracts in a real world setting that must scale can not exist without Casper.

The virtual machine for smart contracts runs, but any sort of real world scaling of the virtual machine requires Casper.

I have explained why Casper can't possibly work and my point is unarguable.

And here:

Its really pointless to have a general discussion without reference to specific application. One thing is for sure: the slowlness and lack of concurrency greatly limits possible applications. What worries me is that Vitalik is computer science drop out and he may have missed some of the important stuff that people suppose to study Smiley  The whole thing about Ethereum seems to me like a strech of imagination that may lead nowhere. Blockchain is very specific thing created for very limited and specific purpose and so will be possible applications of Ethereum which I see to be mostly limited to transactional stuff. These applications will have to be quite simple, no heavy processing is going to work well in such archetecture. I really would like to see very specific ideas for Ehtereum apps and not general stuff that is theoretically possible.

Yeah that is my point that even though the virtual machine works, it doesn't scale decentralized (yeah sure we can scale anything centralized). And it won't even scale to where Bitcoin is now decentralized because scripts consume more validation resources than validating ECDSA signatures.

[...]

For example, I long ago shortcut directly to the generative essence of the problem space and thus am not wasting everyone's time and $millions pursuing braindead designs that can't possibly work. Instead I understand that validation must be centralized in any possible consensus system and thus I turned my attention to decentralized control over centralized validation. Those guys are instead still stuck back at figuring out what can't work.

Something fundamental worth noting here as to my big picture conceptualization of where I wanted to head with my work:

The coming Knowledge Age will likely also be an age of righteousness.

[...]

Your error is your continued insistence to lay the limitations of humanity on the doorstep of religion when in actual fact religion is a critical and perhaps primary mechanism for overcoming these limitations.

Since the religion of government and socialism will have failed us, I suspect the new religion will be one of rewarding digital intellectual property rights despite the fact that everything digital can be freely copied, because in the Knowledge Age the Theory of the Firm breaks down and the individual relies on the income from his own production. Yet the Knowledge Age is all about sharing.

The new righteousness is about individual reputation in the new culture of sharing to banish defectors who would destroy the economic paradigm of the new age.

Religions are borne out of necessity.

This directly impacts for example what should be the correct designs for file sharing paradigms (why I have stated that MaidSafe, Storj, Sia, etc are all flawed because they are designed for stealing not respecting producers).

P.S. Feel free to quote me to the other thread. I can't keep up reading and posting in both threads.

Although you could well be correct . I think it is still very possible to weave in and out and make returns. For instance to weave in at $6 and out at $9 is still a return that I can use for other things.

Everyone has a different risk assessment. If you ever been through an IRS audit (as I have), your assessment might change.

But then again, my (healthy) potential is so high that I normally don't even consider to fiddle with small gains especially when I consider the opportunity cost of losing precious time to nonsense (audit). So I have to be reminded (by AltcoinUK and others) that others (not you) are speculating with their lunch money.

I guess my posts should be taken to light mostly by the serious investor with significant net worth who would be very risk adverse to inviting unnecessary trouble.

Yeah for the person operating with 50 BTC, then yeah they throw caution to the wind and try to weave in and out competing against the greater fools who are little bit too slow and/or wide-eyed (To Da Moon believers).

Btw, this is more evidence that the SEC should be regulating this because we have naive, undercapitalized (not sophisticated, $million liquid net worth) investors (as required by SEC regulations). Not that I am advocating it, rather just stating what I think the law says.

Remember the government regulates crime so it can have a monopoly on doing crime, e.g. it regulates drugs so those connected to the government can run drugs and launder drug money. Ditto investment securities. Since we can't control ourselves (because we are naive, undercapitalized speculators), then the government has to control it for us (and then legalize the insiders who then have to be connected to the government). It is a winner take all paradigm because who ever has stronger power within the government prosecutes those who have weaker power.

Further explanation:

Off-topic:

Although I gave in and grabbed a few in the last week.

The way the pump works is the insiders buy from themselves to pump up volume and price, which causes jealous speculators to capitulate. They never buy back your coins that you bought from the insiders. Instead, you can only sell when there are more greater fools like yourself who are fooled by the pump of volume and price.

The true liquidity is probably less than $million (and thus true market cap is only a few $millions at best), and once the rate of new fools is less than those who want to take profits, then it crashes. Then they pump it up again buying from themselves and start the process again.

I believe this is actually illegal under SEC regulations because they are marketing this to USA investors. I will be researching this and posting about it another thread. I believe also this forum could be found culpable and if were Theymos I would make sure I had consulted an attorney.

Personally I wouldn't touch ETH with a 100 foot pole because of the potential of being tied up in some future mass investigation (not that would normally make sense but...). I fear the governments are going bezerk due to bankruptcy and they will use any excuse to tie people up in audits and other crap from 2017 onwards.

It just isn't worth it. Any one buying little morsels of a scam is just not very wise. If you are going to buy ETH you should be doing it large size to make it worth your risk, but then you should only risk what you can afford to lose and remember the insiders will not let you compete with them.

Mex reorg depth isn't checkpoints.

It is if you expect it to be honored objectively by offline nodes (propagation isn't objective proof because it can be Sybil attacked). I will let monsterer explain that to you, if you don't understand.

For a centralized coin, then anything works, you don't even need PoS nor PoW (except to fool people with).

If we don't have decentralization, then the entire plot has been lost.

Do you need an example? Here you go (remember the Chinese mining cartel allegedly controls 65% of the Bitcoin hashrate):

I'd only be willing to accept a new Ethereum forum if TPTB is the sole moderator for that forum. Otherwise, it will just be full of trolls.

It is better to let Ethereum have their own echo chamber where the pumpers can jack off and fist fuck each other. No need to moderate it, let the semen and feces fly all over it.

Those speculators who want to be hoodwinked will be able to focus very well on how to become a greater fool in the exclusive "Ether to Da Moon" subforum. Those speculators who want to be free of the Ether noise won't have to wade through the dozens of circle-jerk threads to find discussion of altcoins.
