the blockchain is the bank

Can you borrow from blockchain directly?

I don't get it. Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided

First we invent BTC to sac the bankers.

Then we establish Bitcoin bank to give birth to new breeds of bankers.

Confused... Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided

We can transmit BTC without banks or other money transmitters, that would save us money.

We can save BTC in banks to earn interest and borrow money (BTC) from banks.

BTC is not controlled by a central bank, that is the difference between BTC and fiat.
403  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: To fill Gavincoin blocks up to the max of 20MB is relatively cheap on: May 31, 2015, 07:02:35 AM
Im not a technical person, but if the 20MB blocksize proposal by Gavin is not a solution and would indeed bring more problems... then what is the solution? What we know for a fact is things cant go on the way they are now indefinitely.

The solution is merge mined altchains aswell as possibly sidechains and i have seen at least one more proposal from someone else which didn't get enough attention. There should be quite a few alternatives to bloating the blockchain like this.

The side chain will also fill the disk space. The total number of transactions matter here.

Nervous awaiting;)Hope today the dev show us a little bit magic
He was online a few hour ago, but he said nothing.

Has he made enough from this coin?
405  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there an actual Bitcoin bank yet? on: May 30, 2015, 08:53:12 PM
any bitcoin 'bank' is likely to end up being a scam .. like trendon shavers 'bitcoin savings and trust'

Those banks can also do mixing service. You save your BTC there for some time and take it out with interest and they are already mixed with other coins.

SG miner is the miner. You can go to nicehash.com to find the settings.
407  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Leader Changes Mind, Says He’ll Fork Without Developer Consensus on: May 30, 2015, 06:50:48 AM
If Gavin can convince 51% miners to change, then it will change.
408  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there an actual Bitcoin bank yet? on: May 30, 2015, 06:43:55 AM
the whole point of bitcoin is that you don't need a bank!  bitcoin enables you to be your own bank

Yes, but i dont really see bank as you do. For me bank is some place where i can save money and get interests for it. And when i need money i borrow it.
And only this way OP question makes sense.
For me bank is not a network with which i can pay my bills and where i have transferred my incomes. This network part is what Bitcoin is substituting.

That is my thought. Bitcoin is like cash, blockchain enables it.

It is the price of the houses that is wrong. The idea to spend what you do not have is wrong but it has been brought upon us by the banks as a right, creditcards are an easy way to bind people to the banking system and building debt upon debt. DO NOT DO IT!!

If you have a great idea, people can be convinced to lend you, invest in you. If you want to buy a house, save up, you can save up more in 30 years than you can pay off with interest on loans. If you start early you can buy your own house at the age of 30, the time before you could still live in your parents basement Tongue

I know it is hard to get the idea out of your head that you have the right to spend money you do not own using a credit card, but it makes you a slave to the banks.



House price should be two years salary instead of 5. Without easy access to credit, the house price will drop significantly so that many people can afford that with a few years of savings.

Time for a community takeover?

No point. This is one of too many.
411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [BCN] Bytecoin. Secure, private, untraceable since 2012 on: May 28, 2015, 07:56:07 AM
in my opinion, to bring really high this money should enable the POS !!

Then it will be the first ever cryptonote PoS  coin.
412  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency - 0.8.8.6 on: May 28, 2015, 07:53:45 AM
Price about 0.0018, not looking so good.

Price is irrelevant. It has been here before. The import thing is that XMR is still being developed actively.

Is the CPU hashing speed of Credit similar to bitcoin CPU hashing rate?

Yeah, but it's not extremely viable to CPU mine against the GPU mines, unless you have a CPU farm or something along those lines Smiley

Is it possible to set the number of threads/cpu cores for mining? Which SSE instruction set is required? I have the G1610.

What is the total hash rate at present?

What is the speed for stock 280X?
414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DROIDZ [DRZ][QUBIT][WALLET w/Bittrex-C-cex alert][YOBIT - C-CEX - BITTREX] on: May 27, 2015, 09:41:38 AM
As DRZ is PoS now, it costs very little to generate new coins. If there is no further developments, the price could go lower.

That is utter nonsense and complete fantasy Cheesy

POS is 5%, which means if everyone was staking, it would only generate an extra 684 Driodz a day.

That is not going to effect price.

Except owners being tricked into thinking it does.

So the low price is due to lack of development?
415  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there an actual Bitcoin bank yet? on: May 27, 2015, 09:39:54 AM
One question: why? Why you need any bank?

If you do not want to save money to earn interest and want to borrow money, you do not need a bank.
416  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: May 27, 2015, 09:34:53 AM
I think it's high time that btc-e dropped all those nonsense dinosaur coins and replace them with XMR. It just makes sense.

The longer they take to add Monero while keeping these shitcoin, worse are their perceived image overall IMO, Cryptsy e.g. has 0 trust from me now.

These exchanges might not have the technical ability to add XMR. When Mintpal upgraded to V2.0, most bitcoin clone coins were stolen by the owner, but not the XMR as he did not figure out a way to do that.

the question is what's a bitcoin bank?

An established company who takes bitcoin deposits and makes money by giving bitcoin loans.
The deposits must be "reasonably secure".
That is my definition of a Bitcoin bank.

I agree with that. A bank deals with deposits and loans is useful for the economy.

Well, in April and May every new GPU Alt coin flopped, except for two new cryptos.

The only 2 that have held their own (price wise) is Driodz and Cypher.

Why is this thread so quiet?

The price is subdued, and there is not much development of the coin.
