Ok so BTC mining is already semi-centralized. But wont Bitcoin Unlimited centralized it further? Another concern is security. How secure is the hard fork to BU? Splitting the blockchain should he avoided for all our sakes.
Splitting is one issue, and it will be unavoidable... People is sick of waiting... Waiting will kill BTC. Centralization is another problem... If you see all miners agree on something SELL, SELL, SELL! Like stock market... They can change the chain and take over all coins... Like real life... Or create more coins from nowhere, by introducing a fake or altered blockchain, and because they are mayority, the real chain will be eliminated by the system as fake. Im in favor of creating more coins... Centralization of minimg could be good... Like real goverments they create more more by inflation... Forcing people to increase fees is another problem. The bitcoin developers so far, are doomed... Because they don't have enough hash power to support their roadmap. This won't happen but it would solve the riddle at least: Perhaps every individual user of bitcoin should contribute to the mining, running of nodes, and confirming of transactions. I would be lost, but I bet it would zip into shape nicely if you simply couldn't use bitcoin without contributing to the public ledger. Each his own, individually.  |

At first, my relationship to Bitcoin was mild, flirtatious and purely for gaming, entertainment and sometimes profit, but now I have grown fond of the masterpiece that is the blockchain and all of its clever pieces. Why have we given so much control to banks for so many generations without noticing they have their fingers crossed behind their backs as they edit the ledgers and reconcile the books, with our money? I love bitcoin more than ever for its clever way of saying " no thank you " to big banking. Well at least it removes much of the abused power.

I don't know your level in cryptography but recently I was enrolled in a MOOC of Princeton University which is entitled as Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies using the Coursera platform. I believe that you can have access in videos and assignments even though has already finished so as to learn some things. In these videos professors are speaking in a initial level of cryptography. I agree, this is a valuable source of education. I loved this series, and I do believe it's entirely available starting with this link. https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency/lecture/gFEJL/cryptographic-hash-functions |

I am experiencing a similar problem, and the part that most irritates me is I used a bitcoin ATM and their fees were tiny, and that is bad business.
5 hours later and still zzzzz.

Just because women are more beautifully "made up" I think this makes us appreciate one another, in terms of beauty. I do not think it equates to sexual attraction. I wouldn't go quoting any of those sources on a first date if I were you.  |

Hey people, I've always been a huge gambler. I like creating useless schemes (as we all know bank always win ^^) and betting whole nights long in order to find THE right way of betting. But I need change, I can't bet over and over on the same game cause after I see that nothing can be done to change the odds, I'm bored. So I thought a bit about trading and I started not so long ago. and it feels a bit like a betting game without knowing the odds and with an infinity of parameters! Does anyone else takes trading as a gambling game? With fast money as a possibility and a major loss also a possibility, it triggers the gambler in me for sure. With discipline, huge profit can be made. Discipline has never been my strong suit. |

. Hi Toolbox, I was locked out of my google account, this account and my phone broke so I had to wait for the iPhone replacement to get Here. To make up for my tardy repayment I sent you a total of .0123456 on a .008 loan Hopefully that settles it with interest and all. Here's the block chain info : TxID:35d6c1f3633..5404d07fcdb Quantity:0.01234000 BTC Address:1CnZk4ngVet..6w8Uv5DgLbJ Time:Mar. 27, 2017 15:08  I paid more the amount due so you wont hate me for being late on the repayment. Please let me know you got my payment. THANK YOU

FYI Lenny DOES pay, and if he missed you and you are legit, then send a quick note, to him.
It is understandable that there is confusion, in fact I wonder if people make it confusing on purpose in order
to get extra payments out of the chaos! Be reasonable, you guys. No need for all the big bright red alerts making
Lenny look bad for NO REASON. Stay calm, and if he missed you, calmly let him know!
Lenny, FYI I will be sending a large list of new listings for my assigned states here, shortly.
