Umm... I guess.

The issue is the first transaction exchanging Bitcoin for a real world good or service. And while it is possible (indeed, I would say likely) that some unnoticed tx fulfilled that role first, the Pizza gets the nod. Hey - we gotta start somewhere.

U keep confisicatin' Ur Anus with the gateway to your lower :

Just because they occupy the same space and time don' mean they're the same.

I was surprised to glean a new insight therefrom:


Closing quotes are good too, but may just be a pandering call to action. So I won't quote.

Creepy. I like it. All it needs to complete is little round glasses.

It's not a fad. It's a comfortable old garment. Like an old sock.

Damn. And Rickards told me to short _Avis_. Oh well.

Some - a - us old codgers get Globb0's reference.

Lowering the standards such that dead horses may be included in the specification.

FTW

...or something.

Too early to tell. So far, it just looks like the variance to be expected following a halvening.

There was a time one could pretty much read every post on the forum each day. Of course now, if you miss a day or two, just reading all of the WO can be a struggle.

Well, what Jimmy is saying is that these coins are from a block that do not come from the so-called 'patoshi sequence' (when was this term coined? We've known about this for years, but the 'patoshi' name is new to me). As such, they are not strongly suspected to be satoshi's. Though they could be - satoshi _could_ have also been mining on a machine that was uncorrelated with his main miners. Seems unlikely tho.

What midmagic is saying really has no bearing whatsoever upon the question of whether or not these are satoshi's.  Complete non sequitur.


Hmmm. Maybe too obtuse? What time is it? It's pizza time, buddy. You, me and Morris can get us some Papa Johns in an international tripartate transaction. In order to celebrate the wonderous works of St. Laszlo of Hanyecz.

HAPPY BITCOIN PIZZA DAY.

Hmm. I _thought_ it was a 'wink-wink, nudge-nudge, knowwhatimean' open secret that Midnight Magic was the alt Maxwell first uses when seeking plausible deniability.
I could be wrong. I have no proof thereof.

Regardless, what 'midmagic' is spouting has absolutely no relevance upon the veracity of Jimmy's analysis. Whatsoever. It's an irrelevant sideswipe meant merely to confuse and deflect.

It has already been pointed out that humble plane ticket salesman has until the time you actually board the plane to nullify your unsettled purchase. Why you persist in publicly humiliating delusion is a mystery.

But I don’t want to have a pizza delivered tomorrow. Corona-Chan is keeping me off prepared foods.

What’s the relevance? Seems all Greg is saying is “Don’t look over there”.

Seems to be a breach of protocol.

To 'jberher' - not sure what you are up to here. But you seem to have chosen your username deliberately to be confused with me. I believe this against this forum's terms of use. If you post further, without first providing a tenable explanation for this choice of username, I shall be forced ask the mods to deal appropriately.

I'm sitting here scratching my head trying to figure out what specific knowledge from the cryptographer's domain could bring to this decision.

If you are speaking of BTC, that ceased being true upon the activation of RBF.

Well, not really. It's still more than 1MB of data in the block. Relabeling it as some sort of loosey-goosey 'weight' does not change this fundamental reality.
