5301  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitShares 2.0 - Just the Facts Thread on: August 27, 2015, 03:56:39 AM
This thread has been created to try to provide a no-hype summary of critical information you might just want to know about.

At launch, the big gold-rush excitement will be about signing up new users since those who do will receive up to 80% of the lifetime fees generated by every user they sign up.  (So you can get a share of the blockchain's profits without owning any of the BitShares yourself.)

Is this a decentralized coin or a gymcountry club membership?

Sounds like a top-down corporation to me.

Feel free to delete my post which I assume you will. I can copy it to an unmoderated thread.

if anyone is interested, we discussed it earlier, but if anyone wants to generate a "VNL community" fund via FREE referral fees, I will compile all fees via this link https://www.coinbase.com/join/52b624a93ec584082e000082     if you are planning on buying btc for any reason (and not in Canada) the first $100 in btc buys gets $75 in referral bonus t

5303  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best altcoin to be able to handle lots of transactions? on: August 27, 2015, 03:47:42 AM
By the end of 1983, I owned a Commodore 64 and wrote a basic word processor in 68000 assembly language

No 6510 (essentially a 6502 plus some extra integrated functionality). 68000 assembly would be far less impressive as it was close to the pinnacle of user-friendly CISC microprocessor instruction sets. (After that ISA development went RISC or stalled.) Almost a high level language by comparison.

Correct. Its been a while (22 years) Smiley

The Atari ST was 68000.
5304  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best altcoin to be able to handle lots of transactions? on: August 27, 2015, 03:34:16 AM
 
Actual wisdom on the nature of change and humanity doesn't go out of style!  Smiley  It also takes decades to earn.  Who knew?  

The number of people around here who consider months of experience to be an expert is astonishing. Even more impressive is how no-one seems to learn. I see people talking about coin devs with 10-20 years experience as if that's meant to be incredible; no, it's about right, and describes (for example) the devs for Bit, Lite & Doge.

Edit: 10-20 years development experience. Obviously having more than 2-3 years of coin development experience is really difficult, and more than 5 would likely mean you're Satoshi :-D


Yeah, I have been coding since 1967, wrote some IBM assembler back then, then migrated to COBOL as it was easier to code in... My first paid job was programming via wiring pegboards in a bank.  The Bank mainframe had 256kb of iron core memory, which filled a 20 x 30 sq ft room with a raise aluminum floor.

Well you got me beat. I was born in 1965. My first programming was Apple II Basic in the summer after graduating high school in 1983. But I had read a book from Radio Shack on microprocessors in 1978 and had been doing machine code programming in my head since that time.

By the end of 1983, I owned a Commodore 64 and wrote a basic word processor in 68000 assembly language. I turned the 40 column display into 80 column by creating a font that could fit two characters into each column. I was programming the display at the bit level. I was doing this in my dorm at college, because I had this talent where I didn't need to attend class. I could just show up for tests. For example, I finished #3 out of 3 sections (300+ students) in freshman Chemistry.

By 1985, I had acquired an Atari ST and began programming WordUp in my spare time. I started with assembly language but switched to C by version 3.0 of the commercially successful product.

Yeah I guess I have about 20+ years experience, if factoring in that some years after 2001 I wasn't working.

And so now you know why IRC is inappropriate. If the man (or woman?) is serious, he will come to a forum where we can all post during our waking time and have an ongoing conversation that isn't buried by the noise of 1 post per secondminute on IRC nonsense.

Stop your FUD.

"...timeframe in which the double spend being way too small for anybody to achieve and the costs of it would be to high..."

*puts on smug hat*

exactly what I have been saying as we have the same thing in our ledger tech

And that is not simply provable.

Thus not good enough for me. I want something that can not be attacked because it is irrefutable as is the math in Satoshi's paper for the probabilities on confirmations given the Poisson distribution approximation assumption.
5308  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:58:28 AM
If people make serious accusations that the code has been copied in part from VNLBitcoin...

I'll alert smooth so he can come here and battle you on that issue. He was the one who pushed that recently not me. Gregory Maxwell apparently first discovered it in January.
5309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:54:09 AM
your tech ripped apart among claims of plagiarism in this situation....Dude you discovered your ideas after you read his white paper and code....what hope do you have?

Haha, my tech is so far removed from his.

You are digging your grave. Just keep posting.

Again sorry you got holding a bag of worthless coins. Charge it to experience. If you don't blame yourself, you'll never learn to be more discerning and stop being a loser.

Everyone makes mistakes. After you stop blowing smoke out of your ears, calm down and realize that attacking the best developers won't help you, rather you'll just waste your time and sustain your loser life.
5310  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:49:09 AM
I'm saying I'm too tired of debating this and the next step for having it reviewed is to put it out in something more widely read. 30 seconds with Google suggests something like http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/RecentIssue.jsp?reload=true&punumber=71 but there may well be better suited journals.

That said, fairly certain a major netsplit (i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_submarine_cable_disruption) would render parts of the network unreachable from other parts, creating a fork there's no way of reconciling until the network is repaired. I didn't read it as he was claiming that's solved, but it's still a double-spend risk.

I honestly think the Bitcoin casual community has plenty of experts...

Yet you say all of them are FUD. And you say we have to leave here and go to IRC to get the anonymous, liar "john conner" on record here.

 Roll Eyes Cry

Losers just have it in their genes I guess.
5311  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:42:28 AM
But it's you who have criticised VNL in a public place, it is you that has spread FUD, it's is you who should be the man to go directly to the one you have decided to criticise. JC doesn't care what you think...


I'll be on you like a rash if you start advertising your tech, it's the least you deserve for your cowardice...

Loser. You will be a loser your entire life. Disrespecting a top developer isn't smart.

Have fun attacking it. You'll be resoundingly ignored.

I tried to help you, but you are determined to be duped. Go ahead. You'll get exactly what you deserve.
5312  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:40:18 AM
This also explains why we can't steal coins, yet the algorithm remains unsuitable for a reliable 0-confirmation proposal.

There is the proof right there that either "john conner" is a liar or he is not expert. Why would he tell you that stealing coins is the test of veracity when in fact it can not be the test.

That is another incriminating evidence that he is duping the community. Add that to the lies about the source code.

You have enough signals already. If you continue to be duped, that is your own problem.
5313  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:28:40 AM

Stop telling me I need to chase the anonymous "john conner" around to his preferred hiding places, after he has already lied to the entire community and he produced a white paper that afaics did not do what he claimed it would do.

He can come here where we are. If not, then stop advertising here. Go advertise in IRC.

Are you paying me to waste my time? I made a judgment that he is not worthy based on the above. It is up to him to repair his reputation here. He seems not to care.

Come on man, stop acting like an imbecile. I think you are grown up already. My rate is $455k + stock options annually. Can you pay that?

Do you realize you are talking to top developers! Be a bit more respectful of our time please. It is a finite resource.
5314  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:26:35 AM
I'm not an expert

And Fuserleer and I are more expert than you. So why do you think we are acting irrationally? You think we would trash the perfected technological solution so we could go work on an inferior one. That would be illogical. We'd be wasting our effort and time.

We looked at his white paper with great interest.
5315  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:20:08 AM
B) double spend was already (and actually) solved by satoshi

Except he didn't really as Bitcoin has had histories of double spends. How can it be solved if it's happened before?

NOTHING IS SECURE. I repeat, NOTHING is secure.

Actually it can be made provably and 100% secure. Again I don't want to advertise.

Why do you think I am not interested in expending too much effort attacking a dubious claim when it can be solved with a stronger claim.

As Fuserleer said, we just want to warn readers that VNL's claims are challenged by peers who have been working on solving these issues for the past 2 years.

Who ever has the correct solution is going to end up generating a $billion+ market cap. All the developers will migrate to it. So we surely wouldn't trash that which is the perfected solution. None of us are that irrational.
5316  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:16:46 AM
As the link to the deleted post above apparently reveals, IRC is not a permanent record. We communicate here in the public view where (normally) information doesn't disappear and is also available for all Bitcoin interested folks to view now and as an archive.

May I suggest irccloud.com, it keeps 3rd party logs quite nicely.  

Feel free to point me to a link of all his justifications against our claims of attacks. I will review if you do. I am not a dishonest person. If he teaches me something, I will admit it.

I will not go searching for it, if you do not provide it. This forum is very convenient for me.
5317  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 02:05:10 AM
Why is he hiding?

I do not think we have been unreasonable. Hopefully "john conner" can be more social.

He is in the IRC seemingly everyday, how is he hiding?

As the link to the deleted post upthread apparently reveals, IRC is not a permanent record. We communicate here in the public view where (normally) information doesn't disappear and is also available for all Bitcoin interested folks to view now and as an archive.
5318  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If double spending is such an issue and VNL solved it, where is the press? on: August 27, 2015, 01:54:18 AM

I don't need to, because I knew it wasn't possible, and now other 3rd parties have stepped in and pretty much confirmed that there was miscommunication between what John said and what is being reported here.

My intention was not to advertise, but to provide an example that mirrors what I know is possible.  I made plenty of other statements without referencing mine or any other projects.

The majority of people on this forum think they know more than they do, thats not a criticism of them personally, nor is it generally their fault, and its due to 3rd hand knowledge being presented and taken as fact even when the real facts are presented.

If you would rather informed people such as myself and others not step in, and allow people that are duped into believe false statements, to dig themselves an early grave then..well... I guess eventually we'll get frustrated enough and all leave you to it.  For some reason though, despite all the shit I receive, I still have a hard time turning my back on these poor people when most would have long ago!


Dude that's so insulting to 95% of Bitcoin followers who love the abilities of Bitcoin but don't have the first clue how to code a coin like clearly you spend your entire time doing. Some of us do other specialised jobs which involve various skills many of which are not tech based. Half the world uses phones and computers but a tiny amount actually understand deeply the technology.

We depend therefore on people to tell us what tech works great and what doesn't.....sadly the crypto community is so riddled with scammers or due to self interests (many have said like yourself) you can't get a straight opinion on anything. That's a problem and so as a user in the 95% group I want to ask questions and so far JC seems the credible one not his detractors. This thread is another good example.....what you should of said if neutral would be oh great the risk with zero confirmations is not an issue now, so solved instead you wanted to strain on a gnat for your own self interests. That's what I see as one of the poor people you hope to help... Grin

That was an excellent post by Fuserleer. And your reply was very revealing. Now I understand that you are not intentionally pumping a scamcoindubiouscoin. Instead you've been fooled byfollowing "john conner" (nobody knows who he is, rather everyone knows my real name is Shelby Moore, have seen photos of me, knows my former software businesses, etc).

I will try to summarize to you why we think VNL's zerotime algorithm doesn't work.

1. We don't strongly think it will enable double spend attacks that don't already exist. It may eliminate the Finney attack, because the attacker would need to force the zerotime algorithm to become inconclusive (per the methods of attack we outlined in the other prior thread of discussion) thus waiting for 1-confirmation. Note a 1-confirmation double-spend attack would still be applicable but not a Finney attack.

2. The problem is the algorithm will essentially always be forced to 1-confirmation when ever it is successfully attacked. That is good, but that is not a 0-confirmation (a.k.a. zerotime) attack-free algorithm.

3. You may ask why would anyone bother to attack the algorithm and force it to 1-confirmation, if they can't gain a double spend? The reason is to disrupt its 0-confirmation claim. This also explains why we can't steal coins, yet the algorithm remains unsuitable for a reliable 0-confirmation proposal.

4. As for refuting the claims we made in a prior thread about the attack vectors that can force the algorithm to become inconclusive, "john conner" has not given us his justifications. The link to his justifications upthread links to a deleted post. I have never seen his reasons. He is the one hiding, not us.


I apologize for not making clear sooner why we can't steal coins, but that doesn't matter. Our complaint remains valid.

Now if you are asking me why we don't want to prove we can attack the testnet and force 1-confirmations, in my case it is because I have much more robust and perfected solution and I am too busy developing it to mess around with VNL (as well 6 days into a water only fasting to try to cure my Multiple Sclerosis). Sorry to advertise, but you asked.

Also I will add that "john conner" may not be intentionally fooling you (but the lie about the source code is quite worrisome), and he may sincerely believe he has a solution in hand. If so, he should not fear peer review. Why is he hiding?

I do not think we have been unreasonable. Hopefully "john conner" can be more social.

This user is currently ignored.

Fuck he stalked me from the Economics forum to the Altcoin Discussion forum.

The price of some fame. Do you understand why I won't release any thing with my "AnonyMint" name on it!

You should start stealing coins then cause it's so easy, wow wow. Grin

If we steal coins via double spending, then coins will be worthless because we will have proven the vulnerability and the last remaining bag holding fools will even be induced to sell.

I am sorry you got caught holding the bag after "john conner" lied to you (also lied to everyone about his code being written from scratch when in fact he reused Bitcoin code and tried to obscure that he was doing so), but that is not our problem.

Your incessant pumping of a shitcoin is not helping your reputation.
