841  Other / Meta / Re: Everyone calling for Quickseller to end war on tsp; QS ignores thread for weeks on: August 17, 2015, 05:55:38 AM
I guess it's time for me to do my regularly scheduled bump of this discussion back to the top.

Mods, isn't there a thing where someone abusing the trust system is supposedly supposed to be required to make some sort of answer to an accusation that his ratings is abusive?

Here we have a guy who would not explain his rating either in PM or in this thread.  And he's left sockpuppet ratings too.  Quickseller, I can see that you're trying to avoid explaining yourself, please look at the OP of this thread and consider doing the reasonable thing that everyone is calling for you to do.

It's time to listen to reason and walk away from this stupid attack on me.  You may get away with this for a time, but this kind of action isn't going to help you or your reputation in the long run.




Even more shocking, apprantely the mods are disallowing people to comment in this thread now.  ndnhc wrote to me in a PM that the tried to post this in the thread, but was deleted by a mod?!


I do believe tspacepilot deserve to get the negative trust feedback removed and QS has not been right in doing this.

Those arguments before makes me convinces me that QS simply used a trust feedback as the next level of attack? Tongue


^^^Thanks, ndnhc, I'll add your post to the ever-growing list of quotes in the OP.  I hope that QS will start listening to reason soon.  @mods, why would you delete such content?

Really, for Bitcoin to go mainstream, it would have to be a lot more noob-friendly than it is now.
I honestly don't see my dad even using blockchain.info to pay for pizza or whatever.

I think that the android app wallets + services like coinbase and whatever the one is that helps merchants cash out to fiat have made great strides in this department.  I know that when I've bought face-to-face goods with bitcoin it was as easy as scanning a QR code and hitting okay.  Not too bad, as user-friendly goes, IMO.

HI there, I saw a link to your thread and I"m an android user.  However, since I have a bitcoin wallet on my phone, I don't install software that I can't see the source code to.  Is the source for your game posted anywhere?  If not, how do we know we can trust you.

Note, even if your game weren't open source, I would possibly try it out in in an android emulator but not on my actual device.  However, at the moment, my computer is too slow to run the emulator.

It is always good to be cautious when installing software on your phone. Unfortunately, we do not publish the source code. However, we do not operate as some anonymous Company you know nothing about. You can learn more about us at our website http://bitplay.today and see that we are a venture-backed, US-based company founded by an entrepreneur with a long and successful background in high-tech startups. I don't think you need to worry that he would be involved with a Company distributing malware. Also, we are the publishers of Coin Flapper and Coin Crusher, two of the most popular Bitcoin games in the Google Play store (just search for the keyword "Bitcoin" and we are in the top 10 results).

I appreciate that you have a good reputation and you are banking on it.  But on my device, I don't install non-open-source software.  Like I said, I wouldn't mind trying out your stuff in an emulator, but I don't have a good enough computer to run one at the moment.

I wonder if you can say anything about why you would choose to not publish your code?  As we all know, non-published code is more dangerous and easier to exploit.  It seems to me that you'd have a lot to gain by opening your codebase for review.  Just curious about your motivation.

845  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Would this be a reasonable compromise between Core and XT? on: August 16, 2015, 09:14:46 PM
Why not dropping the blocksizelimit completely since we know now that it won't lead to endless spamming?

If the spamming showed anything then that it's expensive. It only makes sense when you have a different agenda you want to prove. It might be worth as a business when you cut down costs by randomly spam, so to spread fear that a low fee might lead to being caught in a next spam attack. If some big miner tip for that cause then it might be worth it when not done constantly and with 1 MB max block size.

So we can say that with no block size limit it would not be worth it doing it, theoretically, for the reason of raising fees.

And the past has shown that advertising spam, or similar things, didn't happen on a scale that the blocks are full constantly.

So i think there is no reason anymore to fear when dropping the max blocksize limit completely now. Ok, spamming would become a bit cheaper but advertising spam would cost, because of the low amounts send. And blocksize spam would be cheaper, yes. So spamming for malicious reasons. But they would need to create much larger transactions and they would not reach anything with it. So they can drop it because it would cause costs without sense.

But even that could be confined when adding output related fees like litecoin implemented. I don't see a reason, and didn't get an answer why it is needed, that bitcoin is the only currency that charges one fee for transacting to different targets in one transaction and paying way less then with single transactions.

Maybe i'm wrong. Then educate me. Smiley

I think a lot of people are worried that without a blocksize limit then there's no way to predict the size of blockchain storage for full nodes.  Additionally, zero-fee transaction may be included by miners just to change the  hash of the block.  I think there are a lot of reasons why block-size limits are there.  I'm not an expert tho.
846  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Is this a legal Bitcoin transaction? on: August 16, 2015, 09:08:05 PM
Can I have a single Bitcoin transaction with several outputs where two of those outputs are to the same address?

Can I have both these outputs in the same transaction?


amount1: 1.2 address: 1Ant11EeZU7V49puUeLsDvbUUi9HS5xSg2
amount2: .2 address: 1Ant11EeZU7V49puUeLsDvbUUi9HS5xSg2

Totally legal and there is nothing wrong with it.

There can be cases where this is desirable also, for instance if you need confirmed outputs to spend, it helps you to create more outputs you can spend - so you don't have to do just one transaction per hour.

That is very intersting and it contrasts with what I was saying above (that this wouldn't be desirable because of UTXO bloat and bigger transaction sizes).  I think I see your point, though, that if you had joined this into one output and you spent half of it you'd have to wait for that transaction to confirm before attempting to spend the other half from a change address.

I also have a level 3 and level 4 accounts that are ready to level.

You can message me or reply to this thread, I come by about maybe once a week

Hiya Scorp, if you do end up selling your level 8, PM me on here and let me know what it went for (if you don't mind).

@tspacepilot

It couldn't be any more that the all you are trying to do is attack Quickseller in your private little war because you earned some negative trust.

Defending Hexacoin is a really bad idea.

I would find another angle of attack if I were you.


~BCX~

Dear Hexacoin, I'm sorry to disappoint you in admitting that I'm not defending hexcoin.  I was drawing attention to the attack-dog mocking taunting style of Quickseller as contrasted with others in this forum.

You might not calling defending your reputation against slander a "little private war" if your hero had perpetrated on you what he's perpetrated on me.  Then again, maybe he won't be doing that to you because you seem to be his number one cheerleader and as far as I can tell, the reason he started all this trouble with me was because he couldn't handle my adult-criticism of his hot temper against several forum members so many months ago.  Be warned, if you do ever disagree with quickseller, tread with caution or you may end up like me.

By the way, is sawdice still around?  I haven't heard from them in a few months, but they were generating a lot of hype on here a few months ago, both with scam accusations (I think it turned out they weren't a scam) and with large jackpots (that took a few days to pay, but did pay, I believe).

853  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: How would you prove that you own >= X BTC without disclosing addresses ? (ZKP) on: August 15, 2015, 01:40:55 AM
That would only price that you had x btc at one point in time. It didn't guarantee that the bottom sent to other addresses are still in your possession.
You can wait and move the coins after you've proven you own them.
But that doesn't really address OPs question, because in principle, if he wants to prove he owns and address, he can just do that with a signed message and then move the coins to new addresses.  The question was if it's possible to prove you own BTC without showing the addresses.  I'd also like to know if it's possible.

The closest thing I could come up with would be that there might be some way to prove that you own at least one of a set of addresses, all of which have the required amount funded.  I don't know if that's possible either, but if so it might be pretty close to what the OP wants.

I'm here to learn!
854  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Is this a legal Bitcoin transaction? on: August 15, 2015, 01:36:48 AM

Can I have both these outputs in the same transaction?


amount1: 1.2 address: 1Ant11EeZU7V49puUeLsDvbUUi9HS5xSg2
amount2: .2 address: 1Ant11EeZU7V49puUeLsDvbUUi9HS5xSg2


My guess is there's nothing illegal about it.  But it's kinda mean, both to the recipient of the transaction and to the network.  The reason is that you have the opportunity here to reduce the UTXO set by one and you're not taking it.  Also, for whoever wants to spend those outputs, you're hurting them a little bit too.  Imagine whoever owns that address wants to spend 1.3BTC, they have to include both of these outputs in their transaction, making their transaction, meaning that they'll probably have to pay a bit more in fees.  Do you see this?

Also, inb4DannyHamilton, the outputs aren't spent to an address, they're spent to an output script.  Wink

Don't post off topic and your post won't get deleted.

Don't play dumb!


~BCX~

Dear BCX,

Thank you for your very helpful reply.  I think I would take you more seriously if you didn't show up in every thread concerning quickseller and play vapid cheerleader.  Please take a moment to read the OP and consider whether it's okay that tomatocage can reply to me in that thread but I cannot reply to him asking him to move his reply to another thread.  If this is a little too complex for you to think about, just move along and try not to worry about it.

I hope you understand that sometimes the details matter.

Best,

856  Other / Meta / Re: Tomatocage finaly replies to my situation, but my reply to him was deleted?! on: August 15, 2015, 12:42:10 AM
engaged with my situation in the wrong thread

Why would such a post be deleted?

Don't play dumb.

Nice of you to chime in.  I'm not playing dumb, I'm asking for clarification.  If a mod decides to delete tomatocage's post, and my reply, that would be one thing.  The mod let tomatocage's post stand (which was, strictly speaking, off topic), but refused to let my reply stand where I asked tomatocage, very politely, in a long and well though out message, to swich over to my thread.  I also (if you read my message you'll notice this) was careful to try to tie the situation back to the thread at hand.

The fact that tomatocage finally spoke up about my situation, even if it was in the wrong thread, was precious to me, and I don't understand why it's okay for him to do this but if I try to reply to him, I am silenced, leaving the false impression that I had ignored him.

Again, thanks for your very helpful comment.  I hope to be able to get to the bottom of this soon.  I didn't join bitcointalk in order to engage in drama and meta every day.  I used to spend time in technical discussion and gambling.  Alas, now it is only this nonsense and it's been going on for too long.

I hope someone out there can help.
857  Other / Meta / Tomatocage finaly replies to my situation, but my reply to him was deleted?! on: August 15, 2015, 12:24:37 AM
After waiting nearly a month to hear back from Tomatocage on my situation (main discussion here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1129059.0)

Tomatocage, perhaps unintentionally, engaged with my situation in the wrong thread  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1151680.msg12143374#msg12143374).  Strangely, when I replied to him in the thread thanking him and asking him to reply to me in the proper thread, my entire reply, carefully worded and thought out, was deleted?!

I can't understand why this is the case.  Why would such a post be deleted?  What have I done wrong that the mods don't want to get my situation addressed?  Clearly my post was on topic, I was addressing a situation in which QS seems to be once again acting overly violently against someone, both badbear and tomatocage engaged with me about it, hexcoin's main situation seems done, and I don't have the right to reply to them?

Mods, I only want to get this resolved, why the persecution?  What can I do?  Why would such a crucial post be deleted?  Why on earth would tomatocage be allowed to address me in the wrong thread and I can't write back and ask him to take it up with me in the proper thread?  This makes it look like I ignored his comment, which is hardly the case, I cherish it and I want to reply.  Why would a mod try to silence me on this?

I think you're reading more into QS's messages than there actually is. Hexcoin's primary concern is not that he and his alt accounts were discovered -- it's how they were discovered and how he might avoid this with his next round of accounts. I don't have any more say over what QS writes than I do over which way the wind blows, but while he may offend some people, I much prefer that situation than the one where scammers slip through the cracks and end up stealing peoples' money. I hope you understand this.

I appreciate your reply.  I surely wouldn't have even thought twice about QS' mockery and taunting if it weren't the case that I'm still suffering from it myself (after 5 months).  You suggest that the only wrong he's doing is offending people.  Let me ask you directly, is it okay that he's also using alt account to leave multiple sockpuppet trust ratings on my account?  That seems a lot more shady than just being mean.  And, while I have your attention, one more question if I may, what happened to the idea that people on your trust list shouldn't be leaving trust ratings vindicitively and without evidence?  In my case, he's not only called me all kinds of mean names for months, he's left me a false rating which he refuses to explain.  If he can't explain it and you trust him, perhaps you can explain it?  If you can't explain it, maybe it's time to look at what kind of people you're trusting.  Given the large group of "scambusters" who seem to be able to constrain themselves to addressing situations where some actual shady behavior that has occurred, why would you add someone to your trust list who leaves negative ratings just because he doesn't like someone?  And worse, someone who goes to shady methods of using alts and sockpuppets in order to try to disguise what he was doing?  Surely you've seen the situations with worhipper (in which he neg-repped someone for simply refusing to do business with him), or the one of ndnhc (in which he apparantely tried to use an alt to frame him to give him negative trust---quite similar to what he did to me using his ACCTSeller alt, which wasn't at the time exposed as one of his alts).  Or there's the whole deal with the dadice people, somehow dooglus, Shorena, DiamondCardz seem to have been able to write feedbacks like "refuses to show cold wallet", whereas QS shows up once a week in the dadice thread and trolls and shouts about how its a scam site (except that there hasn't been any scam, and no one else seem to feel the need to go to such extreme measures and tactics).  Surely you're aware of all this, right?  These are just cases I happen to have run across for one reason or another, I'm not spending any time trying to follow around QS and see how many others of his "scambusting" situations are actually just smear campaigns.

But, then again, maybe we should go ahead and have this conversation in the proper thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1129059.0).  If you wouldn't mind, I think I'm owed and explanation to these questions, and there's a thread that you and QS seem to have been ignoring with all your might just next door.  I apologize if I seem a little irritated, it's just that I kinda am.  I apologize if you feel like I've hijacked this conversation.  I admit that I'm quite frustrated at the lack of replies from the involved parties in my own situation and the mocking tone of QS was all too familiar.  Seeing how well Shorena was able to handle the inquiry, I thought I would offer him my plaudits while trying to ask people to contrast that with the bile of Quickseller.

Will you please reply here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1129059.0 so that we can continue this conversation in the proper place?  Or, send me a PM so that we can chat privately?  Assuming you are the same person I communicated with under the username tomatocage 2 months ago, I would have thought we would have resolved this privately right off the bat.

Best,

--TSP


EDIT:

PS:  I just wanted to add that I don't really understand what you stand to gain by ignoring my thread and my concerns and refusing to communicate with me.  It seems to me that if we talk about this, we may successfully resolve the situation.  If we don't talk about this, the situation just continues to drag on and on and on, and as far as I can tell, it makes people trusting quickseller look very bad because they refuse to address this concern.  I understand why Quickseller refuses to reply or address this, as his current status quo is acceptable to him; he's back on the trust list and his slander stands and if he has to try to explain it, it just draws attention to it when he can't do so.  But for you guys who are trusting him, it seems like your vested interest would be to resolve the issue.  You don't stand to lose any credibility by addressing the issue, and it seems like you do stand to lose credibiilty by avoiding it.

Hopefully we will talk soon.

I think we shouln't talk about just-dice too much in the primedice thread, but it's worth it for me to point out that they do exist again (using CLAM).  Anyway, primedice is indeed one of the best when it comes to BTC dice.  Maybe in that sense it's okay to talk about just-dice because they don't use BTC anymore so they aren't really in direct competition with primedice anymore.
860  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I ran Bitcoin Core for >3 years, and I turned it off today on: August 14, 2015, 10:52:25 PM
As far as I can tell, the idea that XT is an altcoin is clearly FUD intended to discredit those who would otherwise be interested in running it.  There's really no logical reason to call it an altcoin.  As has been stressed by people running full nodes in other threads, individual nodes are free to implement their own rules and connect to the network.

I say this as someone who does not see the need to increase the block-size limit at this moment.  Perhaps it should be increased eventually, perhaps it should be increased and decreased dynamically based on usage (as we do with difficulty) but I don't think the situation is desperate enought that everyone needs to switch to XT now.

Calling XT an altcoin is clearly hyperbole.  It's no more an altcoin than it is if I download core and make a change to the code and compile and connect, it's an alternative bitcoin client, but that doesn't mean it's an alternative coin.
