I do not have 30 posts, but I am an active member of the Bitcoin community and would very much enjoy playing the game.
Is there a way I can get a pass so I don't have to spam 30 posts?

Evidence: I am creator of the Bitcoin engagement ring:

I am having trouble submitting work via https://vanitypool.appspot.com/newWork

I login and submit my work as:
Public Key: 0405a3da992d317ad9455628013bd964bbc7430d59ba4523be951123a815bde61ea3a9210f6fdc1 bd082636e57a54b81ef4011c14d7be48192ed3dcdf4643ced44

Desired Search Pattern:
1BTCRing

And it gives the following error:
"Error communicating with Blockchain, please try again later"


What am I doing wrong?

Also, what is the "honest fee" for this work? Does the "1" at the beginning count in the pattern length?

Have you considered using a Bitcoin wedding/engagement ring? TheBTCRing.com

Made for the Coinbase Bithack. Yes, this project is serious!




I am currently working on a 3.O version that looks even better!

Whoah, didn't expect this thread to get resurrected! Creator of the ring here! First of all, check out the latest version of the ring at TheBTCRing.com, made in silver! It looks MUCH better than the original.

I am creator of The BTC Ring (website: http://thebtcring.com/).
I believe that BTC Ring has the potential to be the killer app that helps Bitcoin go mainstream and appeal to a broader audience.

Currently people think like this:

I think we can change that.

It is best summed up with the following figure:
http://imgur.com/EUB3trY

This is a plot showing the probability density function for block interarrival times assuming expected total reward (mining reward plus transaction fees) is fixed. Notice that the distribution reduces in variance as the mining reward decreases. This reduced variance in the interarrival time between blocks makes it harder for an attacker with fixed hashing rate to double-spend. However, the miners become vulnerable to a "leasing" attack.

I wrote up a paper on assessing the effect of the distribution of block interarrival time on the security of the bitcoin blockchain. I haven't seen anyone analyze this before. The idea basically is that as transaction fees replace mining rewards, incentives for miners change in such a way that the distribution between block interarrivals changes. I ask the question of how this may affect the probability of double spending in the Bitcoin blockchain since confirmations won't follow a Poisson process in the future.

More details and thoughts are in the paper:

Hey guys, I am the creator of the theBTCring.com. I'm just letting you know I am serious about making a reasonable version of everything. The site is still under construction and I am working on the "next iteration" which will include a better/sturdier ring.
