No way I would prefer sexbots over real girls. If you haven't tried real girls try it, you will not look back to your sexbots.  Smiley

Have you tried a sexbot ? How can you be so sure about it. Probably in 100 years most of us won't be able to distinguished between the two of them.

I'm in no way promoting this kind of activity which might lead to more people turning into "Hikikomori" or "shut ins" (japan has already a huge problems with this but don't be so sure about how those will perform their duties.

Another plane was bought down but this time was mig-29 let's say a bit newer plane compared to the rest. It's either that:

1) the rebels have indeed a more sophisticated air defense
2) the mig is extremely easy to be brought down.

Which remind me that we have lost 24 mig-21 lancer in accidents. yeah 24!

The total number of transactions in the blockchain is 44 mils.

If we think of the 2 mils users , that would come to roughly 20 transactions per user.
Don't you think that this is very very low?

47 mils total transactions actually, and since janury 2014 there are 17 million transactions. That makes about ~30 transaction per day for each of those 2 millions users(as I said there are more). There are 60-70 K transactions per day, that makes about 1 transaction per second. Its not that low for a few years old technology. Quark can support this type of daily transactions much better than bitcoin.


Also , a question as I'm too lazy to do the math.
At the current hashrate of the coin , how many i7 processors it will take to do a 51%?
they can't do a 51% double spend. There is already a pool which has lots of power but all they can do is delay the transactions. Don't get me wrong, Quark needs hashrate but we don't know yet how to attract new miners in a way that we all agree.

1) Total number of transactions is 44 645 451 right now. And as i played today with the exchanges and done a few bets i manged to do 21 transactions myself just today as i count also the transactions where the exchanges and the betting sites moved the coins.Wink.

Besides number of daily transactions hasn't increased from too much from last years , just with 15% in average.

That would mean that in the last year we had just a 16-20% increase in bitcoin users?

2) Why can't they?

What if that random japanese teacher guy was the true Nakamoto? I think he was the perfect character and how I imagine Nakamoto to be in person. Maybe the did this in purpose so when they forget about it they keep looking for him forever.

Sorry but that poor guy had no clue what bitcoin was , pronounced it wrong twice without blinking and probably still thinks that is the right way to spell bitcoin.

He is just a Satoshi Nakamoto , like there are a lot out in the world.

You really don't like uro, you can go.

Trolls want cheap coins somewhere


First thing first , lesson about freedom of speech.
If I don't like something I am free to say it wherever and whenever I want.

Second , most of the bag holders here criticized bitcoin for not being backed by anything.
So , based on your approach , wtf are you people doing here on BITCOINtalk ?

I don't need one , I don't care if they will build them or not but if they do I want to be able to purchase one with bitcoins.
787  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why is people against military actions against ISIS/IS? on: August 16, 2014, 08:04:01 PM
Because the Fascist States of America (FSA) aren't going in there for humanitarian reasons, but for oil.

Largest oil field in Irak is explored by Lukoil so stop with this BS.

What was the us after in Somalia? They wanted their sand?

Fallen was right but this doesn't mean he will hit all his predictions, in my opinion it won't crash to $400.

He was right because for 3 months he kept on saying that price will go down and he finally got it right for a few days.

his prediction of 400 is still wrong.

In bitcoin too, no one believed. Buy 1 pizza for 10,000 Bitcoins. Everything is in our hands. Let's help the development of the coin. If all that the developer says is true, I'm in the game.

Idiot , it was because somebody believe that the coins are worth something that the first trade was done.
Let me know when 1% of the alt coming out will have managed to achieve the same , being actually use to buy something.

Yes indeed. Demilitarize the police and arm them with ice cream cons. Stracciatella favor to be more effective.
And they you will be left wondering why nobody gives a damn about the police and why there will be so many left dead while trying to do their job as crappy as it is.

In my country where police is so weak there are so many cases where the policemen get beaten , spit at and i\m not even approaching the subject on how people talk to them. They are more beggars than police officers.

If they would carry a gun and use it like in the us i think that crime rate and conflicts in the streets will go down by 1000%.

You;re the one talking about bitcoin distribution?


Wealth Distribution Top 10/100/1,000/10,000 addesses

quark  37.06% / 64.74% / 89.50% / 98.77% Total
bitcoin 6.46% / 19.53% / 39.42% / 63.47% Total



Yeah ? try to also compare the number of users? Bitcoin over 2 millions, Quark barely optimistic 10K users. What do you expect ? Once more users join, the distribution will be spread much alike Bitcoin.

1)  why should they join when at most 100 poeple control the majority of coins.
This is a big no for any attempt to switch to POS.
2) If the top guys won't sell distribution won't be spread. And you can't force them to do so.

And ... 10 000 users of what? You mean holders as there is nothing you can really do with quarks.
Also the 2 mils for bitcoin is exaggerated  doubt there are more than 200 000 to 300 000.

Exaggerated ? There are more than 2 mils purses on blockchain.info alone!! If you take the rest of the big companies like coinbase, bitpay, etc. there are well more than 2 millions users, active users ? well on a daily basis there are about 60-70K transactions, so there you go.

Why should they join Quark ? There are a lot of reasons, read here: http://quarktalk.cc/resources/quark-en.6/, scroll down to "Quark advantages"

I own about 150K Quark, there are many others like myself, and there are only couple which own more than 1 million. This is initial phase just like Bitcoin has gone through, when Wink brothers joined Bitcoin and fueled the price to $100 they owned more than 1% of entire btcs. In Quark the only ones who own more than 1%(2,5Mils) are the exchanges and probably 1-2 major investors.

Like I said the great thing about Quark is that the late adopters still have good buying opportunities, unlike bitcoin late adopters.

The total number of transactions in the blockchain is 44 mils.

If we think of the 2 mils users , that would come to roughly 20 transactions per user.
Don't you think that this is very very low?
Not counting that there is a former satoshidice user who managed to do 10k bets.
Not counting all the mixers , rewards going out from mining pools , people sending their coins to storage and switching wallets.
I tracked the cons I've sent to one exchange and they did 5 transactions until the coins finally hit their storage address.


Don't forget that mt gox which people thought of it as being huge had only 90k active users that ever did a trade on it in 4 years.

and certainly not Europe proper, which it is now quite clear, is far more reliant on Russia than vice versa.

LMAO.

Inflation in Russia is out of control climbing to near 8% .

Rosfnet ask for 40 billions help from the government and this will be taken from the pension fund.

Prices for certain foods will grow by 20%.

Crimea want out of the ban because it lacks milk, sugar, oil , potatoes and more... basically everything.

And the ruble is going to rubble down 9% since the start of the year.

Yup. Europe is the one hurt by sanctions.

I am not sure what is this game Russians are playing with those trucks, but seeing that most of them are barely loaded is very strange.

They realized after the ban of food from EU that they don't have enough for themselves and so sent only 1/10 of the cargo Wink.

Ukraine does not (want to) acknowledge the load from Russia as humanitarian aid, (so they don't let it be sent to the people being massacred in Lugansk):
http://ria.ru/world/20140816/1020267810.html

Nemo , please help me with the math.
The rusian have sent over 2000 tones of help in 280 trucks.

The RIA news claimed that the trucks are only half loaded or even less  because they are new bla blbla... etc.And from the pictures some don't even carry 1/4 of their max load.
The maximum load of a truck like those in the pictures is 9.6 tonnes (checked).

Some thing is wrong here.
