First, thank you for the remark - while I am aware of how upgrades are typically implemented at "Block X", your pedantic reminders are appreciated anyway (Since I am far from being a shining example of skill, having someone pedantic around is very important)

However, the issue brought up by MoonShadow was not "how does one implement a PoW upgrade" but "what if a group of people with a significant fraction of network computational power  willfully refuse to upgrade their software with a new version that includes a "chain-breaking" update"

To which my humble response is, basically, "as long as they don't have pools and / or exchanges among them, that is not an issue".

Also, to address an issue I find mildly bothersome, I am not a "showrunner" or "leader", and am a little bit annoyed when people make such claims.


You want to say that alt-coins, or, for that matter, bitcoin itself, has a lot of goods/services providers whose business model is not reliant upon ability to convert cryptocoins to fiat, and are essentially "cryptocoin self-contained" ?

Well, since I am not aware of independent research as to the subject, I might very well be wrong and such enterprises might very well be common, but so far I fail to recall even one...would you please dispel my ignorance ?


So, typing dog  standard of evidence strikes again ?

It's not the early adopters holding large amounts of BTC that it's rational to worry about. After all, these people generally have a very strong incentive to continue holding it. The people that it's rational to worry about are those who have large amounts of USD and could singlehandedly wreck Bitcoin whenever they want.

No problem, we can start over. You know what, but this little ugly turd of man it is going to be a loser for rest of his shitty life.
He can prance around here and do attacks left and right, but nothing changes. In real life, the one that actually matters, hes is still a human turd.

BitcoinEXpress admitted to doing the attack here :

Makes me wonder if he does anything else than attack alternate block chains.

I am very interesting in Fairbrix pool as replacement for Tenebrix pool because Tenebrix has too big bounty that disturb me.

The funny thing is: Most of the complainers will drop TBX and start to mine SC2 when it is published, because there are some BTCs to be made ;-)

Hi Retard,

We'll see who's talking crap when CH/RS decides to put SC 2.0 on the table. A day or so ago he was here talking his usual line of garbage, showing us PS'd screen shots of a testnet and squawking about how it was 51% and BCX proof right up until realized that I had already tested a CPU only chain killer on Fairbrix.

He didn't seem too anxious to put his bullet proof testnet  up and scampered away like usual.

I noticed all you devout CoinRumper Butt Buddies seem to forget the most important thing. SC 2.0 is still talk and very much non existent.

I will hold, I lost money on i0coin and solidcoin, why not lose money on Tenebrix too?  The thing is, if Tenebrix ends up like another bitcoin, they could eventually be worth dollars each, so if I mine thousands of them now and sell them off later, that's tons of profit for me at a relatively low risk.

This is exactly why people are buying them from you for nothing too -- 10BTC for 20000 TBX now, but if the price of TBX skyrockets, you'll make a lot more than that same $50 you would get from bitcoin.  You might be throwing out your cash, but you also might be betting on the right number on a roulette wheel.

LOL

What are your plans for the expansion and growth of this operation?

He certainly looks the part.
