Just made the jump to a 1911 in 10 mm.



Sweet!

For my part, I've now got pretty much every piece I need and want at the moment.  The only thing I have interest in any more would be for 'investment' purposes.  Good trading stock under some potential future scenarios.  If so, I'd focus on the types of weapons that average people would need for basic defense of home and family.

People who want to protect their families but got shut out by the gun-grabber's manipulation of the markets could need these types of weapons (and ammo) badly and it could mean the difference between life and death for them.  If my whole community has defensive weapons (and for the most part they do) then I personally am more safe.



don't forget munition shuffling Smiley the only way to keep always a fresh supply ready, for when the enemies of the constitution and bill of rights will come, to take your beef, take your children to rape them, force vaccinate you, take your plants, take your money or what ever else they want you to not have.

those things are mercyless, reckless, weak but still allowed to prosper.

you know nothing is more dissuassive to those parasitic class of lawyers, judges and their political lackey than high velocity projectiles.

they said : we are gonna force vaccinate you and take your children away... we said nothing. because now it's war.

a problem with raw unpasterized milk you little slave ? excellent, once your body will have decompose the grass will be richer at this spot.

they don't respect our lives, they try to manipulate us, to enslave our minds, to rape our children, spoil our planet, abuse life while pretending to be the good moral guys? and of course they want to repeal the 2nd amendement to then erase the first and move to their united nation charter big one world of happy slave?

I love that... finally some wide scale wars...

as the russian red armies said, try to our weapons away... try... come, try...

Now anonymint is cross-posting in another thread with complete fairy tales claiming shitcoins can't be stopped because if anyone tried to stop them, people can just transmit the blockchain by HAM radio!

And your absolutely delusional about the ability of governments to intercept encrypted Internet traffic, or if necessary encrypted HAM radio transmissions.

Seriously...what the hell are you even talking about now?  That wasn't even your idea in the first place.  It was some random guy's post long ago who didn't even make the comment in a serious manner.  It was just a random thought he threw out knowing full well it won't work and is completely unfeasible.  You know someone is extremely desperate and has long lost this argument when they start claiming people are going to transmit blockchains by HAM radio.  What's next?  Shitcoins can't be stopped because those guys at the airport runway holding up those flags can transmit blockchains to each other by sign language?

A lot of families have always have the challenge of managing their budgets especially on pay day. Most families exhaust their monthly earnings just midway into their pay day, while they struggle for the remaining half of the month.

My question to you is this: How do you manage your budget in order to save for the rainy days?

learn about Cost of Living, emergency fund, tracking of all expanses and income and don't forget it is super easy : Income>expanse = winning and income<expanse = losing.

No...they are not.  First of all, nobody on the right or left gives a damn what govt says anymore.  Even back when people respected govt, barely anyone turned in their gold when they tried to confiscate it.  So whether the govt attempted to move against shitcoins or metals, they are unable to do either with voluntary compliance.  They're required to use force in both cases.  The only force they're required to use against shitcoins is knocking on the door of the exchanges, giant mining facilities, or ISPs and filtering out the non-obfuscated traffic.  It takes them barely any effort or force to obliterate shitcoins.  It takes them a WHOLE LOT of effort to physically attack everyone roaming the planet to confiscate their physical metals.

I've talked to numerous people from TBTF bankers to low level celebrities that make up the system.  All of these people with any passing interest in shitcoins know who both Anonymint and I are, and pretty much all of them agree with me, except maybe random people like Ashton Kutcher, that whoever holds physical metals in the future makes the rules, not shitcoins.  So in any argument of r0ach vs Anonymint, it's basically r0ach + the entire rest of the planet vs Anonymint and Ashton Kutcher.  Choose what side you want to be on for the conclusion of this fight.

the only beneficiaries are the managers of those programs.

so that those who vote for the party who legislate those social programs have voting blocks with economic power to finance their campaigns and elections.

this is why even if the money spend increase that the situation doesn't get better.

most of those who work on those program are political appointee pushing the narrative of their party, harvesting money and influence to foster the goal of their party.

ask yourself? do they work with metrics? are they consequences when those metrics go down?

looting the treasury to finance themselves... and justifying it morally with "we are helping the people"...

remember they have no shame, they steal your money to give it to themselves to pay their elections to create their "occupations" with all the benefits you can imagine (pensions, healthcare etc etc).

a little pro tip, the market isn't an animal that you can parasite and if you believe you are doing so right now...

yes, I say no more, you will discover it  Wink

and don't forget common defense is approved by the market, even with it's exorbitant cost, because individual defense, even at scale you can't imagine is still too small... which corproration can man, equipe, train, form, and co just only a small brigade? what you can't make your own weapon systems...

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF SNOWWHITE : C17H21NO4


Ladies and gentlemen, mothers and fathers, users and traders, producers and movers, bankers and cleaners, lawyers and cops, judges and jailors,

it's clear that the situation isn't comfortable for anyone. Personally, it is the cross fires that are particularly interesting to me, it can be real guns blazing and entire neighborhoods or regions burning down, the entry of others paralels illegal trades, the political corruption, the jails, and the all the shit that prohibition generate.

Furthermore, I clearly understand the fears of mothers and fathers, unaware of the psychoactive world, who try to protect their children from the dangers of such a product.

However criminalization doesn't work, otherwise it would have been solved by now. I think you lack all notions of real economics, markets and human nature to be able to grasp what is going on in this very dangerous and lucrative trade.

So the goal of this post is that WE THE PEOPLE create a legal framework to transition cocaine from an illegal market to a legal one, ie another market expansion, like cryptos Smiley.

it isn't a place for the various, paid, threaten, soon to die, manipulated and others low lives - low iq.

It isn't a problem if you have an idea that seems stupid, maybe it isn't, the problem and attention will be on those who try to derail this effort to codify the perfect federal framework for the usa, as such and to foster a positive, solution oriented discussion, I will dispose of the "self-moderated" function, and as a last word to those who try to derail it, just know, that in this trade, your life has no value what so ever, so thank me.

Principals:


  • No more deaths from this trade
  • No access below 21 years of age
  • commoditized
  • financialized
  • made in america
  • clean product, responsible grow, consistent potency
  • no special taxation
  • strong punishment to those who expose those below 21
  • strong punishment for those who expose those who don't want
  • financial amnesty for all the previous gain from the illegal market
  • no log, authorization, permits or what ever crap breaching the privacy of the users, like a regular regulated product forbidden to below a certain age

For me deeply, this issue is about the right for everyone do dispose of his own life. Since when does a few law makers can abrogate for themselves the rights to deny other Adult Americans to use a plant of the earth? I find this attitude the most incentivizing for war while they profit of this war awesomely, while still yet no experiencing too much (at least in america) the backlash of the trade masters. remember those politicians have declared war on American adult citizens who chose to buy from south america a product they like. In getting in the middle of a free willed informed fully consensual trade they have ruined entire nations, created atrocities, injustices, and waves of illegal aliens, that only them (still) really benefits from. Cops north from south are facing real armies... the spice traders. And you can deny, but spray, is a violent thing, and when you stand in the hail's path, it isn't ice. Some say we have airgunship, because stingray are that hard to find? this violence is fostering others really unwilling no-consent trades (like weapons, slaves, corruption) trading.

more cops, more lawyers, more judges? you do understand the cost for an economy to carry this? where is the production? where is the exchange? where is the value provided?

YOU REALLY THINK THAT ONE OF YOU, OR ALL OF YOU WILL STOP LAURA SPELMAN TO HAVE WHAT SHE WANTS?`YOU DO?

will see how you will reacts when you will see your children and wives nailed on your luxurious living room with their all stomach content expanded on the floor? vision of horror? no just a way to start to negotiate with terrorists, aka by killing them, by bringing not the fear of death, but it's smell, it's vision, it's touch. war is war. then you will be killed at their funerals, so that all friends, know. it's over.

and when laura spelman wants, laura gets.

then one thing you have to understand is that it isn't because a product is illegal that your child will not have access to it. Since the entire market is actually illegal, there is no way to criminalize or penalize the behavior of expanding it to children, it could be in the back alley of some poor neighboors to behind the toilets in the golf club... as it is already illegal, there is no way to protect like you say so much, and then when your precious little ones move away what would you do?

the goal is to move this from a law enforcement perspectives, and not to introduce a medical perspective, if some people like things you believe are shit for you, who tells you that what you like isn't shit for them? and it could include your own precious children. what? who cares, they are yours.

but more importantly it has everything to do with the US CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS, it's not because something sucks, is very addictive and frankly useless that those traped or just having experiences are to be treated as non human beings. When two citizens exchange each willingly, informed a product free of suffering and of breach of free will, how dare you enter in the middle of it?

do you really want to leave to your children an unwinneable war? how will you stop the space spice trade? you will rule the entire universe? how do you plan to do it? so rather than fight the future, maybe helping finding a framework that his reasonable for all, something consensual, that then each state can adapt or refuse, but at least there is something to inspire peace and love, flower and kisses, rather, than ex-special force, narcokids and others officials battles. remember your precious one, can always be at the wrong place at the wrong time...

and as some you are maybe a little slow, just understand that the official wars isn't the problem, that is easy, no... there is a lot of competitors in this market...

let's say you are this successful politicians, who has just accepted for your own safety this bribe from group A... what do you think group B think about this? they will not know? you really think that the market signals will not be clear and evident for those immersed in it? liars and thieves have no chance to survive in a real free for all trade battle.

and if you are still dumb enough to believe the hardest fight is between the groups, don't forget the inners battles of each group Smiley.

but maybe the best solution is the actual status quo with maybe an agreement to introduce a farming quotas for each groups against the establishements? that would be fun... each group has to farm 1000 lawyers monthly... because don't forget, the illegal trade doesn't need laws... nor lawyers, judges, cops, or jailors... completely useless.

remember it is always easier to destroy than to build.


792  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Up Like Trump on: July 01, 2018, 12:21:15 AM

Personaly I don't think that Trump will do any good to USA. Actualy with him USA lost the chance to become the greatest leading country in the world again.
He will only make the crisis deeper and make the new enemies, can't see how could this contribute to progress.

What Donald Trump is doing is solely for the USA citizens and them alone. He doesn't care about what the other countries think about the US as long as the US citizens are happy and they seem to be very pleased with what he is doing for them except the Liberals who are never going to be happy even if Trump makes it rain gold.

Trump may be making it 'rain gold' in Israel, but it ain't happening at my place here in the good old USA.  Frankly, except for the very welcome screwing of the EPA, I've not seen much of anything change.  Lot of talk and a lot of excuses about the mean old 'deep state' while he stuffs his cabinet full of them.



I have the same question about the water output of the new foxconn wisconsin plants... last summer to swim this lake? there is a difference between streamlining and letting all go south. But why would trump admin sacrifice this lake and filters and what ever is in those waters is harvest-able...

thanks for your message tvbcof.

I am very happy. DC Swamp+WS Swamp voted for Clinton massively. It's not a swamp, but a massive radioactive sewer. Deep cleaning. Next? I can't wait to see Satan calling Soros back to hell.



Hello robbylove,

Your name is so appropriate for my reply. I understand your anger against Sorros. However I think we should surf love. I know it is a proposition made of falls, but I think it is the safest fall we can have...

What drives my comment, is that yes, it is super easy to solve sorros. But what do we really solve doing so? Sometimes, defeating the great general of the other side doesn't bring victory, buying him neither... and maybe we may eliminate something we know for worst. But if we can win the heart of sorros and his ranks... we are greater.

I understand that what I am going to write, can be really unbearable for some, I would fully agree, and there I am referring to his youth. And in this way of thinking I believe the most important thing is understand the man he is now, at the down of life.

I believe that he is a smart cookie. That I think is undeniable. Secondly, I believe he experience great pains behind his posture of what he did. But I believe it isn't possible to judge on a few sentences in an interview about a period we have not lived. I don't say forgive or forget, simply not judging fast so grave.

With this in mind, we can maybe start to analyse what he did recently, it asks how we can use his energy for our gains. From what I read his "open society", promoted the right to dispose of oneself body (lgbtq+square or lgbwtfbbq Cheesy... Isn't it the in the spirit of the founding of america to let each one purse his own path toward happiness? Don't get me wrong, I believe they went too far with their indoctrination of children, let children be. If those in the lgbwtfbbq could find their own path there is no need to sexualize children, without of course entering in a nihilism about healtcare, prevention and respect. So rather than fight sorros and his ranks in this path toward more acceptance and respect for all, it would be smarter accompaigning in them while helping them recognize when it's too much, too soon, against the will of the parents, ie all the issue about whom the child belong (hint: the parents) and who decide (hint: the ones who pay, cry, laugh, ie the parents).

So in short yes to the liberty of all adult to do what they want with their will, while respecting and helping to defend the one of the parents. If you don't want your teenager to learn about contraception, healthcare risks and co, you may in for a big surprise... but it's your child, until majority. this is important to respect.

then sorros and his ranks are hot on police errors. Who doesn't want the best police? law enforcement officers want the best police, one reason being they aren't on duty all the time, have families and a dirty cop taint their own work. Sadly, like with all humans there may pop bad elements. Some are just doing mistakes, shit happens, others clearly breach their oath. Is the cop closing his eyes on this old man suffering from a serious illness while seeing his stasho f herbs a dirty cop?

So it lead to the question of coming back to the roots and ideals of the founding of the usa, why the war of independence and what the independence day mean, a liberation of mankind, to be greater.

so when sorros ranks says, police brutality, let's see, what can be improve for that not to happen. Sadly, something are beyond the control of the law ENFORCEMENT agents. Nothing is easier to enforce than a just law.

so as we can see we touch on three issues, who seems separated but have the same foundation: how to protect children, teenage, young men, grown up, adult and senile while not limiting their liberties and in the respect of various tradition and new trends.

And as we can see sorros is in the middle of those important issues. Is it for a nefarious end goal? I can't tell you, but I want adult (lgbwtfbbq) to do what they want with mutual consent and knowing that they can always seek the help of the cops. On the same token, those on the psychoactive side of life, too needs to be able to seek peace in the security of those who are clear minded during their duties... drunk fights can end badly for nothing.

what I am saying is that the Law enforcement agents aren't the problem, but some laws. I think for most it is hard to imagine the violence generated by criminalizing gays... or abortion... or psychoactive. again I understand the wish of parents to not push behaviors they may for some rightly so find aborent and dangerous for their children. Removing cigars ads isn't a bad thing for non cigar aficionados... but for the fans?

finally I think sorros understood that overwhelming america with illegals aliens isn't the solution, but to collapse.

in very short how to play judo on sorros and particularly his ranks and bring them to help in MAGA ! and without them it can't be MAGA ! it would only be half maga.

And to comeback to the lgbwtfbbq, most recognize that sexualizing preteens is completly moronic, while on the other hand most agree that educating on what is an unacceptable behaviors from others is critical, from respect, to the will or the body. I believe those who will sexualize babies will be the same who will deny the will... And who better placed than the responsible and common sense ranks of sorros to help LEO find those hidding among them for nefarious goals?

by attacking them, rather than help us expel, those hiding among their ranks, they will close... and make this task way harder.

An issue that I am surprised to not see sorros intervene more is right and respect of the will and body of old people (seniles Cheesy). It's really important. respect the old, weak and young.

another aspect, as laws are made in congress, when sorros clean his stable, lots of dead horse and skeleton will resurface... and I mean, bubbling.

Of course, I could be completely off board, and this man could be hell bent on destroying the usa to what ever is few last day reward maybe... I am not convince yet. Having a close mind on him isn't the most effective way to defeat him, and as I believe this isn't really a complex issue, the more important question in this case of covert will to destroy the usa is how to handle the ranks. I am certain that a lgbwtfbbq who just want to be an equal citizen under the provision of the constitution, to live happily his life the way it make him happy, isn't aware of the hypothetical wishes of sorros to erase the usa.

why would he waste his time on the usa if he hated it so much?


switching gears

I would love for trump admin and particularly secretary Mattis to audit the issue of vaccines in the military. My opinion is simple: the best products available. I think we should have two lines. one for peace being the most advanced and safest vaccine on earth independently of anything, cost, storability etc. And another line called the shit has hitten the fan, and their we need stocks, and to stock there are compromise to made. One is about the purest flow, and the others the durable stock, storage-able.

in short to transition from make america great again to make america always the best (which is less vocally appealing than maga...

the problem is that in certain places, without vaccines, the survivability drop faster to zero than gravity gets bullets down and if you had the troop rotation and co... it's one thing when a nowax says no and goes all in, it's only his choice, like an lgbwtfbbq, his life, but there is unity to defend. It's like the debate of should helmet be mandatory... just saying if disorganization start to rule in peace... wait for action Smiley.

and to end in flashes of lights :

With the independence day getting closer, and beyond the reflection on those who made this liberation possible, the bbqs and parties, there is fireworks...

what are MAGA fireworks? I hope it isn't too short on notice... and please, don't forget those rovers and voyagers... they are american too Smiley. If on the second of July 1776 I had told them about those robots... Smiley, but yes they are.

I did get genuinely chumped in a certain way and it is this:  Almost without exception, the complaints against Trump from my friends and family and lots of people on this board were maddeningly inane.  The simple reason for this is that most people have access only to the mainstream media and all they can do is repeat whatever nonsense is spewed there.  These are not bad people in some sinister plot.  Just 'tarded.  The trouble is that idiocy is like a red flag to a bull for a guy like me who cannot keep his mouth shut.  I was repeated baited into 'defending' Trump.

794  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Naive Romantisism with the Roman Empire these days in the west on: June 30, 2018, 05:28:37 PM
I've also noticed romanticism of Rome, both in my surroundings and in myself. Often when I imagine how organizations/governments/societies ought to be structured, without noticing it I start thinking of the Roman system. Eg. a while ago I was thinking that bitcointalk.org has over its history usually had two admins, which reminded me of the system under the Roman Republic of there being two consuls, and I intuitively found this comparison satisfying. Then I had to remind myself that the Roman state failed in innumerable different ways (including in many ways that Romans cared about -- not just from a modern perspective), it was anti-technological, it was inherently, grossly immoral, it was almost diametrically opposed to my ideological viewpoint, etc. But Rome permeates our culture so much, even today, that I just can't help but have my thoughts colored by it sometimes.

The USA reminds me very much of Rome. The government is (intentionally) very similar, there is a similar breakdown in government function caused by a mismatch between how the factions are supposed to be balanced and how the factions exist today, there is the same sort of schizophrenic and expansionist foreign policy, etc. I've been increasingly feeling that the US government has entered a highly dysfunctional state similar to the Roman Republic in its last 50-100 years, and the mounting pressure of broken government will soon lead to crises and then major governmental changes, similar to Rome. (Though history is not actually cyclical, so I'm not going to predict that there will be an actual Emperor of the US at any point in the future...)

Hello theymos,

I respectfully disagree with some of your statement. First the idea of anti-technological. I think it is wrong. The number of innovations is just amazing in most aspect they could improve and discover. Why do you say it was immoral?

the price situation is bad... or excellent if you want to join the pivx train Smiley.

it's clear that we are doing something wrong.

how can we improve the situation? What can I do to make pivx great again? MPGA !

for example I wanted to bet on a site that was advertised on this page, sadly it didn't accept pivx natively Sad.

I would love to have the native iOS wallet, but as it is beyond our decision possibilities, maybe some things that are possible.

How many among you use their signature space for pivx?

How many of you have upgraded their hardware to run the pivx network faster? ready for elastic blocks?

stay purple, keep Ztaking Smiley.

From the day Trump started his tenure as the 45th President of the United States of America, there isn't a single decision he made that I wouldn't agree with, besides I think that his Cabinet and picks for heads of executive departments are among the best there ever was in charge.

If I had to express 2 constructive criticisms, it would be that 1 maybe focus more on what is coming next in the speeches, while trying to have more news in the content, even if I understand the need to repeat a little the message. And 2, I can't wait to see what will happen to those of the previous admins who did treason, accepted bribes, or committed other high crimes and misdemeanors... Maybe it's only that I am too impatient  Smiley.

And please, may the family find the sincere expression of my gratitude for their sacrifices and engagements.



And I conclude in asking your opinions since day one? happy or not? and what would you like to see next?

Because she's dying and it's best to avoid the kind of distraction that putting Hillary in jail would do. I mean I understand the point, but it's just best to focus on more important things.

finally we are talking.

it is an interesting opinion and I agree that more important things have to take resources, however :

so maybe arresting and killing all her support network slowly, and once they are all dead, kill her alone?

because ultimately it is the precedent that I dislike. And that should be punished in active death. But as you say, this justice seeking can't interfer with more important things.

but I believe that her and her teams created those problems with the exact purposes of using them for them to have time to escape.

so the goal is to eliminate those "that would do distraction" when hillary get to her trial before her execution for treason.

it makes a big bunch, specially in the medias, as the doj / fbi contamination isn't that big. and of course then the foreign allies of hillary.

I believe that hillary is way more dangerous long term to america and the world survival than ussama ben laden.



mercy is for the weak. and once more ressources are freed to be allocated to this tasks, so be it. and remember rather than support a rapists / pedo like bill, hillary could have avoided all of this, by going to justice and denoncing the source of those crimes and punishments coming, bill.

and finally a republic can't exist when those seeking to destroy it, to exploit it, to enslave it are made heros.

We need american Wahhabism, aka a return to the source and a purge to those who seeked to lead the republic ashtray.

I hope Bitmain will do at least 1 pump, then I get rid of my last 199 Zcash  Grin

Since last Monday over to Monero, after more then a year of all my rigs on Zcash.
I know, you can expect a lot in Crypto, but this ?  




they did !!! as expected... but who knows... they have deep pockets and it may just be the beginning.... or the end !

Hey everyone, I recently did this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPdnG03eI58) showing some of the recent Deception and Misdirection that the ZCash team has pushed on us all over the last 1.5 years and ofcoarse more recently over the last week with the announcement of the Z9.

....



Yes, Zcash is a scam, always has. Why? first the trusted stepup is completely unreliable from the get go, but now with all the behaviors that you documented... it is total unconsciousness to support this chain in anyway.

ZEC is beautiful example of how a shitcoin can get a high valuation...

Furthermore the behavior, and censorship is totally unacceptable. it's the virus musk(it), a very contagious illness, made of arrogance and lack of respect for investors.

and there is zero decentralization with this coin, everything rest on the shoulder of a censoring master... what a shame for those who have been fooled...

the rush for the exit is going to be fun Smiley.


Very true if this is supposed to be a decentralized coin than why is one man pulling the strings  

sometime evident questions are left out of the price, but once they return... Smiley.

I would like to know what makes asics better at securing the network than gpu's?  
Also some idiot saying that gpu miners jump ship if another coins is more profitable...So do asic miners. You only have to look at BTC and BCH if one is more profitable than the other to mine they simply switch their asics to that coin.

We all saw the posts when zec first started .. making promises at being asic resistant....in order to be resistant you have to actually resist. its so easy to say your resistant when there is nothing to resist against.

I would like to see the 20% paid by the miners put to some good use and use the 20% to pay the devs  for their time to fork away from asics and actually keep their word.

Everything the OP has stated is true and in my opinion if they dont fork away from asics they should be held liable for their lies and deceit. They are no better than Bitconnect it my eyes.

First thing that comes to mind is that when you're a GPU PoW coin, its possible to develop an asic in secret and basically take over the network without anyone knowing.

If you're already on asics (fastest tech available atm), you're not vulnerable to stuff like that.

That's not a pleasant scenario.

On the other side, it's a lot more secure when there's one dominant ASIC manufacturer that already has a healthy xx% of the hashrate and can easly build enough to get over 50%. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes  Totally invulnerable. Cheesy Cheesy

Also does the eth network seem vulnerable? You'd need quite a lot of ASICs (assuming E3 eff) to get over 50.

And how many persons/companies could actually build and design an ASIC that could take over a network like Zecs? Assuming the devs would not treat changing algos like some design of the 8th world wonder, and fork like Monero did?

One poster wrote it earlier...

Why stop mining? if it is the most profitable dump it !!!

and then as he said, nice post by the way, is about locking user in
to have captives, that they call "community". with gpus and fpgas you can switch at will, with asics, the algos must be used by other great chain and devs... dispersion etc.

@EleanorZ I’m not an official PIVX but do try and post here to help with communicating with those who don’t use discord or twitter or reddit.  I do think Discord is the best place to go for updates info and support issues and questions.

I believe there was plenty of clear posts in here regarding the update as being mandatory so should be no excuse to not be done, if any user still didn’t get the message someone should be able to help in discord on getting an up to date blockchain or resybcing again.

Also if not aware Ledger hardware wallet is having issues with PIVX but they are working on it , the desktop wallet and blockchain is working fine, just an issue with ledger.

Yes and we thank you.

But I do believe discord is a poor choice as it's a hugbox/echochamber; the only people going there are the ones looking to talk about PIVX. No strangers just popping in and you can't really be very critical and argue about anything that's unpopular as you'll go against the tide and lose. I believe the main channel of communication should be a neutral source, like this forum. It's also a PITA to search for stuff on discord (very high noise to signal ratio) and the search function is pretty bad as well imo. But I also understand the majority of people doesn't share the same opinion as me.

Maybe meeting halfway would be good; as in having a bot that posts all the semi-important announcements to all channels.


On another note, staking zPIV results in about ~50-60% orphan rate so currently staking regular PIV is a better option profit-wise but collectively staking zPIV probably provides more information helping to find the cause.

What I do know for sure after testing that it's not a computational power bottleneck and I believe it's also not a network bottleneck.

What I like about discord is that it is live, so it is really the ideal place to look for help and support and hang out in the stream. I find the discord of pivx to be really open and working well specially with different ideas. However I agree with you that it is unpractical to search for something specific without having to ask and that the same forum format as here should be used at the pivx official forum, as the javascript only adds nothing but unpractical look.

pivx should have it's own working forum, and for me the actual one with javascript is frankly speaking useless.

Another reminder, don’t forget to backup your zpiv seed. I’m not sure if the importance if this has been made clear.  Details below.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pivx/comments/8gbjf7/how_to_use_deterministic_zerocoin_generation/




the more backups the better !

JOIN DISCORD
[...]
For a coin like PIVX I don't think it would be too much to ask to have all the important details also broadcasted here - especially since the coin itself started here.

For example, knowing the block reward changes in advance would have been nice...
[...]

Agreed that more official posts would be nice, but the community does keep this thread up to date. @fuongy does most of the work (not actually sure if (s)he's official or not, tbh), and I chip in from time to time as well, plus others. The block reward change was discussed on March 3rd, right after details emerged. Remember that the transition to zPiv staking took about a month longer than expected, and the details were discussed before the initial roll-out date.

Also, the PIVX subreddit is fairly active, and is another easy source of info for those who prefer to avoid Discord.


And a big thank you to you EleanorZ for the great pots you do here. They are always very informative and complete and easy to read. And in a sense it is a manifestation of the decentralized nature of information, however with all the budgets that goes in, I am not sure the pivx are that well spend.

secondly, I get triggered by the word "community". All that I have seen using it had always hurtful goals in the long term. I see it more as domestication to then jail, to deprive, to steal and enclose.

the problem of here is that it is a single tread and the problem of discord is that it is live, the problem of reddit is that it is censurable and the problem of the official forum is that it requires javascript. why couldn't the official forum use the same software as this one? simple, clean, easy, and remove the captcha and it would be perfect Smiley.

I'd rather see the coin staying ASIC resistant in the future, but I understand if it takes time to make sure that changing the POW algorithm doesn't break other services that are already dependent on the Zcash network.

don't be so dumb, the algo doesn't change anything about the chain... all those so called service can work with pos coin... you are sooo noob. do some research.

Why don't these devs realise that not only gpu miners are the first users of their coin but they are also their biggest user base at any time.

...

the coin which betrays its community will turn to dust. We miners will just ignore, go over their dead body and move on.
 

This action is a nail in Zcash's coffin.

the miner dumpers don't care, as long as suckers pay for it and it is profitable for them they will continue to dump it... until it isnt Smiley. but those who hodl zec? I mean... they are such risk takers (I hope they love bags too Cheesy).

and the devs don't give a f now... they have the lambos and bimbos... look at what dash did... they even seeked asics.
