In other words, even if some readers think "this question is bullshit" it is nonetheless true that the question has predictive power. From a researcher's perspective if the question has predictive power it can be useful even if several participants don't like it.

Although it might have predictive power, that question disregards people who don't support any of those options.

If none of those options represents you you could pick moderate. It'd be a pity not to fill out the rest just because of that. It's hard to be perfectly inclusive in forms when it comes to the political spectrum, participants just pick the closest.

By all means QS, go ahead trying to pursue an outcome out of this case. I'd really like to see that happen.

Βut to believe that a judge would order the court to be closed only for you to protect your anonymity? Only in your dreams. And even if that happens, Vod has every right in this world to release information about what's also his case.

Do you really believe that neither of those could go wrong? I know you care about your anonymity very much. If you hope remaining anonymous but you're also willing to use the coins you received on such a case, you might as well return the money and quit trying right now because that just won't happen.

Ι just won't believe that TF sent Quickseller 20 bitcoins over this.

First of all, for all we know, he's anonymous and has strived to keep his anonymity. Going to curt over defamation would require him to forget about this.

Aside of the fact that such a case would be largely inefective and any money put on attorneys by Quickseller would be wasted. There's no case in the first place. Sure he's accusing Vod of defamation but then what? Even if he goes into the struggle to drag Vod into court for this shit there's no judge in this planet that would find him guilty over defaming an online persona in an online e-currency forum.

Either TF is cooperating with QS to troll or he just wasted a large sum of money.

Hey, the payment for the latest term has yet to be made. The doc has counted all the participants but has set the status to waiting. How long does that phase usually take?

I remember a while ago when dooglus' idea of offline investments was taken into consideration. I guess you put that aside for moneypot's development (which by the way is amazing). Never got to know what happened tho.

That's really a bad time to test those 'smart fees'. The stress test was very successful at increasing the optimal/Kb fee for giving transactions a high priority.

https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC

Optimal Fee / Kb
0.00112178 BTC
And the mempool's size won't go down as well. Maybe this giveaway was just a scapegoat for coinwallet to take the stress test upon themselves.

So is this guy phoking legit? I recall that the last time someone won much in a very small period of time he was a cheater that used his extensive knowledge on math to exploit an undisclosed vulnerability.

Bitcoin started steadily being used in 2010, five years after that under normal use conditions it's still not suffering from the 1Mb block limit. I've seen people arguing that merely increasing the block size limit will ramp up adoption but I think it's much more complicated than that. After so many concentrated efforts, bitcoin's usercases doesn't seem to be growing at rampant rates, not that there's a way to be 100% certain about that, but at least data in the blockchain makes that evident.

There are many concepts that come against increasing the block size cap eight fold. For example, with a higher cap, the fee market would likely change. Getting into the blockchain would be worth less, while right now, putting data into the blockchain costs a somewhat significant sum. With the destruction of the current fee market for the upcoming years and blocks 8x times bigger you'd expect that we'd get something back. Like for example 'stress tests' being harder and more expensive to bring to reality. But that's also not the case. Bigger blocks would just be easier (and also cheaper) to be filled with trash transactions. In fact, calculation's we've seen about tx/s going up with the size are only taking into account transactions of certain size. Limiting the mempool was a suggestion to counter this, that wouldn't really work out well if the goal of increasing the block size cap was to make bitcoin handle more tx/s.

Well, everyone that has posted here would probably be dead by that time. But if bitcoin survives as we know it and keeps being used though all those years it's unlikely that mining will stop. Right now the miners are mining the block reward plus the fees of transactions in each block. That means that even when the reward is zero, miners are still going to receive the fees as a reward. I can't wait until 2016 halvening btw.  Cheesy

The doc says payment is at Sept. 11. Forum time still indicates that we're on that day. Give the manager some time I'm confident it'll be fine.

If it's Todd's tool that confused you try reading the description on github. It has a pretty good explanation.

Who said that f2pool is helping? They're mining blocks that are far from full while the mempool is still ~150k transaction.
916  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: CoinWallet.eu Stress Test Cancelled + Bitcoin Giveaway on: September 11, 2015, 02:12:56 AM


Transactions average more than 1Kb each. Isn't that x4 the average?

I was contacted by ts telling me theymos helped recover the account. Hope all is well.
918  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Quickseller escrowing for himself on: September 11, 2015, 12:45:42 AM
Seems like tspacepilot was hacked? There must be some serious conflict of interest between what he's doing and cetain people for such a thing to happen.

dooglus, any proof that the person that contacted you was the authentic tspacepilot?


doog removed the feedback  Huh

I still have to go back and read a lot of this thread, but I read about it on Qntra: http://qntra.net/2015/09/coinwallet-turns-stress-test-into-dust-givaway/

Is this actually something legit or just penny shavings as was pointed out in the article? Until now I have had a neutral stance on coinwallet.eu

Those addresses are filled with 0.00001 BTC transactions. Only bitcoin core can handle loading the private keys, trying to get coins out needs to use coin control. Even with that, the size of transactions is unbearable so for most addresses it's not worth it to get big chunks of coins out because it would require a huge fee due to the size of the transaction.

On blockchain.info, there doesn't seem to be any problems regarding the number of unconfirmed transactions.

https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions

Seems pretty normal to me.

That is because bc.i has been blocking transactions with low tx fees or with lots of outputs.

Meanwhile, here is what you can see on some other block explorers and monitors:
https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/: 65k unconfirmed transactions, 112 MB mempool
https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/:  89k unconfirmed transactions, 104 MB mempool
https://bitcoinfees.github.io/: 124 MB mempool size
http://statoshi.info/dashboard/db/transactions/: 137k unconfirmed transactions
http://munin.bitcoin-fr.io/bitcoin-fr.io/n.bitcoin-fr.io/index.html: 134k unconfirmed transactions, 116 MB mempool

How are the stats different in each website?
