I'm going to start a conference called "Steve Jobs' Vision". It's going to be all about how Apple has lost it's way, and the NeXT computer was the perfect desktop computer that people should have been using all along. I'll manufacture about 5 new NeXT computers, and take pre-orders for the rest.
Haha. And garner a $16B market cap? Riiiight. JLawGoodLuck.png |

How is Bcash still a thing when the Bitcoin mempool is almost empty?
Because the condition of a light bitcoin mempool is a temporary condition. |

The miners are just employed to secure the network and are the tiniest percentage <1% of all users so why should they decide what everyone should be forced to accept
Two answers. 1) Because the miners are the group that have the most to lose if bitcoin fails. As such, from a game theory perspective they are the proper custodians of the system. 2) The real reason: because this is the system that Satoshi designed. It is exactly the way that Bitcoin Works. |

That's a lot of good info about witnesses - thanks. What you did not include, however, is a description of what the actual function of witnesses is. |

It’s just another weekend.
I think the craziness will start in 3h... 2h... steadfast to our hats, gents. Hats? Pants! Don't you mention pants anymore, mkay???  OK. Never did get the whole pants thing anyway. Is that a local micro-meme initiated when BMB announced 'No time to explain! Gimme your pants!' or something to that effect? Or am I missing out on some more grandiose fragment of internettery? |

EDIT: Ignore Meta  Aww. You did it again. Hurt my feelings. I find it somewhat funny, though, that while you are ignoring me, I am occupying enough of your consciousness that you feel you need to announce that fact to all da broz. I assume your silly meme has to do with the fact that I support BCH? I guess you assume all of those posts were unsolicited BCH shillery? Haha. Exactly one on the topic of BCH, and I was merely replying with factual information, to a (anti-)BCH point another had made. Guess the yolk's on you, hunh? |

Except no or very few accept 0-conf you amost always have to wait for 3-6 confirmations
Freekin' payment processors used to accept 0-conf transactions. Until persistently full blocks ruined The Bitcoin Experience. |

Impossibru. Basic arithmetic fail. |

fuck BCH and BTC private
Yes, if you plan on fucking BCH and fucking BTC, you best do it in private. |

Segwit it nothing more than a malleability fix
False. There are many ways of implementing a malleability fix. The approach taken by segwit completely upends the bitcoin security model. All due to implementing it in a way that resisting it required a hard fork. |

i would say: unrelated reference. Indeed - link to a sketchy press release on a seeming unworkable scheme. Nothing to do with either Bitcoin Cash nor XEM -- which poster seems to think are the same thing. Adam's social media manipulation budget must be running low - looks like he can only afford bottom-tier shills any longer. |

LN makes commerce simple I purchased some steam vouchers the other day from bitrefill took me about 20 seconds from clicking buy to getting the code email and activating it
Amazing. Just the way bitcoin used to work before blocks started getting persistently full. |

8.3K seems to hold firmly!
I keep thinking there's a tasteless joke in there somewhere. But I can't seem to grasp it. |

Jeeezus...can you imagine the poor slob that actually took that modeling gig? Love to be a fly on the wall at that photo-shoot... ....”ok just put on this diaper underwear with an Idaho baker in front, look manly and say cheeeeese!” In my defense, that pic predates bitcoin. C'mon man, a gig's a gig. Gotta feed the chillens. |

Honestly Bcash doesn’t offer anything except a larger block size.
Exactly. It is precisely what was needed to fix bitcoin. Well, it is also restoring previously disabled opcodes -- enabling the functionality satoshi originally endowed it with -- that were cast out in a poorly-thought-though expediency. But that's just gravy. If u are going to fork bitcoin apparently Bitcore is the one to go for. Maybe bitcoin gold and I like that one cuz it’s got the ASIC resistance.
And throw away the security of billions of dollars of investment in security appliances. Brilliant. |

JJG, why the personal attacks here?
I speculate that JJG imagines themself to be the mostest specialest importantest poster in all of Bitcoindom. Perhaps merely marking territory? |

Your outrage is understandable, but it sounds like it's a very short term stint before Pompeo is confirmed. Also, Trump has never been involved in politics before, and doesn't have a large network of trusted bureaucrats to choose from as Obama or Clinton would.
Haha. You said 'trusted bureaucrats'. That's rich. |
