Just ignore the malleability attack, it doesn't really change anything. You sent the same coins twice to the same person, the second transaction confirmed, so he still got the money. All in all, just ignore the double spend, its like it never happened.

Thats like saying all the shops in the world will stop accepting bills printed after a certain date, or refusing all bills that ever got some woman perfume on it. Its just not feasible. Most merchants that accept online transactions, FIAT AND BTC don't give a shit about USD or BTC, they get paid in the currency they want.

And payment processors that handle BTC live on BTC, so suiciding by refusing 90% of coins is not going to happen.

ROI could be before the halving, if it take 2 years to ROI, you do it wrong. It just depend on what electricity rate you get, and since you have that much capital, you might as well set it up somewhere at 0.00-0.02$/kWh.

Fungibility isint a problem in the first place. Its not because a dead man said it need to be fungible than the principle still hold true. I very much doubt he could foresee hundreds of years in the future that money would become digital and ethereal.

Now we're in the era of Security.

Yes, obviously i can't type for shit. Okay then thanks i shall wait longer, while keeping an eye out for some people in North America that could have some to help me out of this tight spot.

Maybe setup a strong 2FA for authentication, so that people can simply use their google authenticator or such to recover their password. I'm not sure if the other password reset method let you change your password without locking? By using your email account, i mean.

And FIAT's value isint based on its numerical value, its based on the purchasing power of the currency, the value goes up and down, depending on supply and demand. The second you compare how different currency work, you're just going away from the fungibility fundamentals, that need not even apply to BTC.

More than likely, whatever GH based on a value you get now will be worthless in a few years, because of raising difficulty, at least at hashnest, because its fee is based on the profitably of the unit its tied to ex; S5.

Otherwise you'd need a system where they devalue and overtime fee per GH is lowered.

Am now looking specifically more for long cables, 18 or 16 pins and the support bracket. I am still looking to obtain S5 blades / S3 "kits" but i can only grab limited supply of those for the time being.

Please PM or offer if you have anything available, thanks.!

Funksy seem busy to. I haven't managed to get any reply from him since the time you referenced him. Hopefully i can get those long cables in the near future, i been needed some for quite a while, now.

How does one know for certain your coins has became vulnerable to a trojan that can specifically hijack your priv key from a specific wallet? Because if a program would of had access to your privkey, it would itself instantly send a transaction to a preconfigured node asking all your funds to be moved.

Its not an actual hacker that does the work. You just code a trojan and wait for funds to arrive while you work on infecting more people.

Well machines can sift through a lot more data than "is at any point...?" so this argument would still stand against coins that was dirty before "the great Bitcoin mudfight" to make all coins dirty.

There's also the added problems that more new clean coins are made every 9.9~ minutes on average. And if you add a few satoshis to new or old clean coins, it doesn't really make them dirtied.

Its not hard to have the clean/unclean system ignore "dirtying" of less than x.

You would need to actually mix all the coins with all the coins. Doesn't sound doable.


On step at a time, but yeah its ridiculous. Also it will not become a problem or be needed.

Actually, 2 years ago it was at 110$, since then we had the MtGox manipulate the price to a massive extent, then crash to all hell, according to people, survive several "official deaths" and now we're at a stable 200$+

If you don't see the growth difference between value one and two, then no i guess there wasn't any growth(?)

And some coins or bills with specific history, serial number or print are worth more. Misprint, etc. That doesn't mean that the dollars isint the same value. Imagine if you could own the very first Genesis BTC, it would be like owning the very first bill ever made.

That doesn't mean a btc to another, the value is different.


I see what you mean, but its fungibility isint being called to question right now, and if it does, then we can come up with a solution then, or just enforce it by law. And then maybe, money doesn't need to be fungible, when its a decentralized entity like Bitcoin. But its still fungible.

You will always receive the amounts you're supposed.

Any different value to BTC would be attributed by the buyer.

Its like having a guy that will pay more for bills print on a certain year. It doesnt actually change the value of the bill. Its just a damn entity that decide he,s going to pay more or less based on his criteria.

Bills arent indistinguishable from one another. And Bitcoin is not either. If this boil down to being able to spend it without revealing all the previous transaction, than so be it, wait for sidechains.

Well, a big job, or a ASIC mine of 500TH/s would earn that much. That is probably not what most people can setup since that would cost easily 150 000$ to startup But its doable if you can invest it.

Its been a while since i got into bitcoin and at first i bought Bitcoin to buy hardware. I bought Bitcoin at 600$ at some point, but i did not hold them, i reinvested them, so now i'm earning what i bought in coin at that time every other month.

I think holding Bitcoin before you're sure of its base value is a mistake, meanwhile if you double your Bitcoin every year through investments, you'll end up with so much more money in 10-20 years if bitcoin really go up than letting bitcoin sit, collecting virtual dust for all that time.

I understand its easier to do than real money, but is this not the same thing as saying "We won't accept any Bills that became in contact with cocaine in their lifetime."?
You don't see shops rejecting bills because they came into the money of criminal once, so, why would this become a problem for BTC?

That an interesting variant to the problem, but different than mine. Are you unable to close the window and go to options as well? And you say you can never get past the login screen its at the login screen that you click restore/create instead of "unlock".

And you can distinguish bills from their serial number. Having a ledger of all transaction prior does not change the weight value of the Bitcoins. Electronic transaction are just the same.

You're going around in pages you have no reason to go. Did you go in miner config and set valid miner worker login information? Its in the miner configuration tab.

Also in network option you should make sure its set to DHCP, before you start fiddling with random stuff.
