Miners would be paid through transaction fees alone.

Paid what?
Paid DestroyCoins from the sender.

How do you secure the DestroyCoin network?

I can see where this is headed, but I also like watching train crashes in movies so I'm enjoying playing this out.
The DestroyCoin network will be secured in the same way the Bitcoin network will be after all Bitcoins are mined. Computing power will compete for the fees gained when a block is found.

When a block of what is found?

It runs off the same blockchain system.

What happens when all DestroyCoins are destroyed?

We retire it and continue to use DestroyCoin 2.

Oh god, now he's trying to get me into a dialogue with him in a private message. He must be the loneliest person in the world. That's kind of obvious though I guess since he's faked suicide attempts twice on these forums now.

Atlas, get a girlfriend (a real one, not an internet one from something awful forums) and go lose your virginity for gods sake.

Nobody has ever said something like this to me before. You have guts, son.

I like you.

Would you use a crypto-currency backed by destroyed Bitcoins? You would send some Bitcoins to a specific blackhole at a certain time and the blockchain would credit you with 1 DestroyCoin.

Once all Bitcoins are destroyed, there would be a total of 21 million DestroyCoins.

Miners would be paid through transaction fees alone.



How do I know you don't have a key for this blackhole?
A public address can be made without generating a private key. In that case, it would be impossible to find the private key, ever.

It will be clearly a blackhole since it would contain a long word or phrase.

I will sell.

why are you waiting for 8.50 tho if your going to sell... sell now?

If it goes that low, it will probably go lower. If not, it might stay stable or go higher.

OP, please correct this open-ended question if this is off-topic.

Who here can honestly be in favor of denying healthcare to those who can't afford it?

Seriously, that's a tax I'm happy to pay. I think.

I know you're out there...
In a previous debate on this, it became clear that a few posters would rather let someone die than have their healthcare paid through taxation.



Before poor diet and globalized disease, the only time death occurred was through injury.

Is anyone denied treatment of moderate physical injuries today?
Not in the socialised or partially socialised systems of the UK and US, no.




What about private charity hospitals and ones ran by churches?
They wouldn't easily be overwhelmed by everyone that needed treatment.

(You can't just do away with disease etc., they would still remain if you completely privatised medicine) .

Anyway, I must go to work. That tax won't pay itself.

The public hospitals of today are easily overwhelmed. The waiting lists are staggering.

Everyone I have met in europe loves their medical system.

Jr. Member Cheesy

what do you mean, "these low prices will not stand"?

The price is quickly bought up after every dump only to face another minor one. Sale after sale, the price remains resilient. We all know where the price ought to be.

We can deny it in the face of a greater fantasy, however: Cheap Bitcoins.

If these dumps occurred during the day time, these low prices would not stand.
