Hello everyone, I am RainbowKun, and I'm back. It is an honor to return to our Bitcointalk forum after nearly two years. This forum is always the holy land of communication for the Bitcoin community, and it is also the place where I express my faith in Bitcoin. Perhaps most people don't remember who I am, but that doesn't diminish my love for the Bitcointalk forum. In July 2021, I first proposed the concept of "Bitcoin Civilization" here and subsequently wrote over sixty articles on Bitcoin philosophy to explain my understanding of "Bitcoin Civilization". To this day, I still believe that my philosophical thinking is of great value and it guides me to continuously create and innovate in the crypto world. Under the guidance of the "Bitcoin Civilization" concept, I founded the RainbowCity Foundation in Singapore over the past two years, and led my technical team to create a multi-chain DAO infrastructure protocol: the RainbowDAO protocol. The RainbowDAO protocol has won multiple hackathon championships and has also received Grant funding from the Polkadot Web3 Foundation. These are all recognitions of me and my team by the crypto industry. At the same time, I am not alone. On May 10, 2022, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin and others published a paper called "Decentralized Society: Finding Web3's Soul". In this paper, they jointly proposed the concepts of Decentralized Society, Web3 Soul, and Soul Binding Tokens, which have sparked widespread discussion and a huge impact in the global crypto world. Decentralized Society: Finding Web3's Soul https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4105763The idea of the Bit Civilization that I proposed is essentially consistent with Vitalik's idea of the Decentralized Society, except that it involves a wider scope than the Decentralized Society. I have always believed that Satoshi Nakamoto did not just create a currency with Bitcoin, but rather created a new human civilization. Bitcoin represents not only a decentralized society but a thriving decentralized civilization. Bitcoin will be a new advanced civilization built on the foundation of mathematics and algorithms, representing the liberation and freedom of all mankind. I call it the "Decentralized Civilization," or "DeCiv" for short. Because this civilization originated from Satoshi Nakamoto's creation of Bitcoin, I also refer to it as the "Bit Civilization." In order to continue to promote Bitcoin and expand the spread of the "Bit Civilization" idea throughout the entire crypto world, my team and I have decided to launch and create the FireDAO project as the basis for conducting a social experiment exploring the Web3 Soul. Here is an article about the origin of FireDAO: https://twitter.com/FireDAOKun/status/1623936581253074947"FireDAO" is a social DAO organization based on PID and FID soul-bound accounts. It is a community-driven on-chain autonomous economic entity, and a Web3 native DID identity system built on blockchain technology. Currently, the first product of the FireDAO protocol, FirePassport, has been launched on the Arbitrum One mainnet, and seed community members can already mint PID. Within the next three months, we will also launch more than ten native protocols of FireDAO on the mainnet, truly creating a Web3 native DID identity protocol based on blockchain. https://twitter.com/FireDAOlab/status/1626466276716732416To pay tribute to Satoshi Nakamoto and the Bitcoin community once again, I will choose to serialize the FireDAO ecological white paper in the Bitcointalk Announcements section, further elaborating on the economic model and top-level design of FireDAO, and also welcoming anyone interested in FireDAO to become OG members of the FireDAO community. I hope that after reading the FireDAO white paper, you can provide me with valuable feedback to further optimize and improve FireDAO, and I also welcome you to follow my subsequent updates!

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / The predicament of Bitcoin
|
on: September 27, 2021, 02:24:26 AM
|
In 2021, El Salvador made Bitcoin its legal tender. Which is one of the fourteen most important events in the history of human currency, indicating the beginning of the currency reform of human civilization and the start for mankind to fully achieve the integration of currency and civilization. A small step in human history yet a big one in human civilization.
From my perspective, Satoshi Nakamoto never wanted split. He longed for but consensus, he yearned to build an open, transparent, fair, free, equal and harmonious world. Bitcoin is the stepping stone of all that.
In the next fifty to one hundred years, all currencies of any sovereign state or economy must take Bitcoin as the anchor and value reserve since only Bitcoin demonstrates the true value. Otherwise the people would do irresponsible voting and abandon fiat in view of the fact that every individual has free will, has the right to choose their own means of wealth storage.
But in the current stage, Bitcoin merely proved its trend to human civilization but far from taking the responsibility of functioning as the infrastructure of human civilization and countless realistic problems are still waiting to be solved. We are in the most elementary phase of Bitcoin’s changing human civilization.
Here are some problems Bitcoin is facing:
1)Incapable of managing sophisticated economic activities
The function of Bitcoin is very simple and basic, namely, keeping account. One block is created every ten minutes, recording the most primary economic activities of human. It’s the only function and the strongest consensus of Bitcoin. The public chain of Bitcoin is available solely for smart contract, any slightly complicated economic activity can not be conducted here.
2)Slow upgrading
Bitcoin’s growing power and strengthening consensus requires minimum governance, even zero governance. It may take months or even years for consensus to come into being anew once any minor improvement in BIP occurs. Issues like block size can spark split of community for lack of consensus. Stability is the biggest consensus, therefore minimum governance is needed and any dramatic change in function of parent chain of Bitcoin is no feasible.
3)Deeper economic activities are not practical for holders
At present Bitcoin is for wealth storage only. There’s nothing else can be done except for trading. Any intricate act is not possible, including DeFi, which could create large value and liquidity.
4)Flawed cross-chain anchor
To unearth more wealth from Bitcoin means to generate Bitcoin in other chains, like WBtc or renBTC in ETH parent chain. But they have considerable disadvantages.
Above all, WBTC isn’t 100% decentralized anchor of Bitcoin since it relies on certain intermediary for conversion and single point of failure can happen at any time. What’s more, cross-chain BTC like renBTC counts on the mortgage of the coin of that platform to keep the private key of Bitcoin and the cross-chain scope is subject to the market value of the platform coin, failing miserably in coping with massive cross-chain activities of Bitcoin. So the market where cross-chain BTC engages in DeFi remains small for the time being.
5)Fresh economic and technological model is needed
Up to now, the market value of Bitcoin is over $one trillion, and it will probably exceed ten trillion or even more in the future. To finish extensively cross-chain and trust-free interoperability demands a brand-new economic or technological model.
Only when that model is invented can the full value of Bitcoin get fulfilled, can thousands of chains get connected. Then Bitcoin can rise to be the infrastructure of human civilization.
6)Inability to community management for most holders
Minimum governance renders it almost impossible for Bitcoin holders to participate in community management substantively, such as voting and proposal.
Bitcoin is the biggest community in blockchain, and also the most separate one in terms of strength for what members in this group can do is merely looking at the pumps and dumps of Bitcoin and attacks from the outside world like bystanders. While those who enjoy the participation of Bitcoin network most, that is, miners, are pitifully the most disloyal part for the reason that they have to maintain the cash flow for daily expenses by mining Bitcoin, selling Bitcoin and withdrawing USD, giving out their Bitcoin continuously.
7)Narrow sight of Bitcoin investors
Now more and more eyes are being attracted by Bitcoin, from individual to financial institutions and sovereign countries. Sadly, an overwhelmingly majority of people who invest in Bitcoin are money-driven, they hope Bitcoin can maintain or, preferably, lift the value of their wealth, or get rich overnight. However, mindset like this normally turns out to be damaging. They lose money because of, in essence, the lack of information about the intrinsic function of Bitcoin, its function in the three decades to come for human civilization and its position as the infrastructure for human civilization.
8)Manipulated price of Bitcoin
Within one year, the price of Bitcoin is nearly twenty times higher at its peak than its lowest level. But few people really earned money during this process in that most of them chose to buy when the price is rising and sell when it's dropping, tricked by whales miserably. But actually the investors with insufficient experiences are more to blame.
The good news is, though the price of Bitcoin could be affected for a couple of days or months, it is on the whole going up accompanied by untold twists and turns and won’t be controlled in the long run until Bitcoin truly grows to be the infrastructure of human civilization.
9)Monopoly from whales
Whenever the price of Bitcoin plunges, whales would come and collect Bitcoin, accumulating their bargaining chips in this way, bringing monopoly. That means, firstly, whales do the purchasing because they believe Bitcoin is profitable and the price they catch is surely underestimated; besides, the globally growing Bitcoin consensus will give birth to more and more believers whose bravery to have Bitcoin will bolster the further scattering of Bitcoin. That’s a natural process for these Bitcoin owners to reach the consensus collectively.
10) Pollution and energy consumption
Some people reject Bitcoin because they think Bitcoin mining does harms to environment and consumes the already scarce energy. But now the truth is, increasing green energies such as wind energy, hydro energy, photovoltaic solar energy and thermal energy have been applied to Bitcoin mining. That is not a one-way process. Those energies would be transformed into hashrate which would become Bitcoin next, recording all the economic behavior shaping a ledger for the economic behavior of human civilization.
The energy is not wasted but stored within Bitcoin where all human wealth is locked. Bitcoin became the infrastructure and anchor of human civilization.
I summarized these ten problems in Bitcoin. They are rather realistic. Some can be settled by the natural evolution of Bitcoin, while more of them need a series of new solution.
Do you think these flaws exist in Bitcoin ecology?
PS: When posting for the first time in bitcointalk on July 1, 2021, my heart was filled with respect and reverence. As a believer of Satoshi Nakamoto, I know this place is one of the greatest wealth he had left. In the past two months or so, I have spent all my time and energy on in-depth original thinking about Bitcoin, finished 60-odd articles and unleashed them here to express my admiration. But now I am really disappointed with bitcointalk, which, controlled by a small group of thugs, has become a place of violence, deception and slander. Some people tried their best to accuse me of plagiarism and get my account suspended.
That has brutally broken all my expectation of bitcointalk. This article is the last one in my series of philosophical thoughts on Bitcoin. It could have been divided into ten independent sections, whereas I don't think it necessary anymore. After sharing this article, I will temporarily leave there and go back to my normal life, and to the preparation of my own blockchain project. In the future, I will build a paradise of Bitcoin in my own way to show my respect for Satoshi Nakamoto and Bitcoin.
I show my gratitude to everyone who has ever supported me. Hopefully, my words in the past quarter can become a mark in the history of Bitcoin. Maybe 30 to 50 years later, when our offsprings read these articles, they will surprisingly find the Bit Civilization gradually turning out to be a reality and Bitcoin part of human civilization. Time will prove everything and give the best answer.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin will be the infrastructure of future human civilization
|
on: September 24, 2021, 10:17:13 AM
|
In the last two months, I finished over fifty articles about Bitcoin. They may not be absolutely correct for lack of evidence, whiles philosophical questions contain not standard answers, they are for the inspiration of discussion and thinking. Debate makes things explicit. Victory belongs to the people.This article is about my notion that Bitcoin will be the infrastructure of future human civilization.
The digital Bitcoin world unveiled by Satoshi Nakamoto has overwhelmingly surpassed the existing human civilization. Many people even speculate that Bitcoin is an experiment carried out by aliens to advance the escalation of human civilization. Luckily, we happen to be the witnesses and practitioners of the glorious test, the opening of a great era. Blockchain is reconstructing the earth, reframing the trust and value transfer system and rebuilding the Tower of Babel of human collective collaboration. In the next fifty to one hundred years, Bitcoin would become the anchor of value system and wealthy structure for humans, leading them to the integration of currency, economy, wealth, politics, religion, culture and civilization, that is, earth civilization. Only then can the internal friction on the earth be over and humans step into universe civilization and communicate with civilization from other planets. Nevertheless, since Satoshi Nakamoto came up with Bitcoin in 2009, its consensus has been expanding with surging believers preaching for it, relevant community enlarging and belief strengthening. But the course is full of lies, deceit, fraud and spurious bubbles with batches of participants losing money for lack of knowledge pertinent.Thus, the road to boom of digital currency are cluttered up with suspicion and misunderstanding for the reason that the vast majority of people do not comprehend blockchain or its underlying investment logic or the contribution Bitcoin and bolckchain made to the promotion of human civilization. As I see it, blockchain is more than a technological revolution, it’s a revolution in cognition, thought, logic and relations of production. Bitcoin is impressive because, more importantly, its reconstruction of organizations, of the social and distribution system. It will at last change the most basic relations of production, and achieve a leap-forward upgrading of human civilization. The current atomic physical space of mankind will be formatted step by step by Bitcoin and enter the digital Bitcoin kingdom one day. Mankind will truly stride into a world close to science fiction. How does Bitcoin build the infrastructure of human civilization in the future? What's the blueprint? I think Bitcoin standard worldwide is underway. Bitcoin will be the anchor of the world. Bitcoin standard means holding Bitcoin as the anchor and then to launch currency of each sovereign state or economy. All these currencies must take solely Bitcoin as reserve and the credit endorsement with a fixed or relatively floating exchange rate, equivalent to another Bretton Woods system of Bitcoin.After WWII, Bretton Woods system showed up and USD became the anchor of gold, which acts as the credit endorsement of USD. One dollar equals to 35 ounces, then the exchange rate between USD and other fiats would be set. That’s the gold standard then. Unfortunately this system collapsed in the end and humans entered the age of pure credit money, the origin of the unfairness of this world.In the coming half century, Bitcoin standard will land and there will be a certain fixed or floating exchange rate among fiats of all countries with Bitcoin as the endorsement. That's the only solution to refraining currency from over-issuance, keeping weak countries from bullying, stopping ordinary people from exploitation.This is the way to the integration of global currency and civilization and this process must start from relatively backward countries to reach a balance of equality, then force strong ones to compromise thus Bitcoin standard can be built finally. That is the necessity of the development of Bitcoin and human civilization.In 2021, El Salvador Congress passed the proposal of making Bitcoin its legal tender, indicating that humans have embarked on the road to globalization in currency and civilization in the form of cryptocurrency and blockchain. El Salvador is not a strong country. As the initiator, it will certainly have more and more followers in the days ahead in that nothing can achieve the maintenance of wealth, gain the victory against global inflation and accomplish inclusive finance except embracing Bitcoin as the legal tender. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/sep/24/el-salvador-adoption-of-bitcoin-as-legal-tender-is-pure-follyAs Bitcoin’s status as legal tender reaps growing recognition, especially all those help Bitcoin has offered draws increasing attention, small countries will gradually persuade these big ones and regional fiats such as euro, CNY and yen will be pressured to adopt Bitcoin. As Bitcoin’s status as legal tender reaps growing recognition, especially all those help Bitcoin has offered draws increasing attention, small countries will gradually persuade these big ones and regional fiats such as euro, CNY and yen will be pressured to adopt Bitcoin. Bitcoin mining is in nature bookkeeping, to strive for the accounting right in the digital world of humans. That right is in charge of reserve currency liquidation and the liquidation of most of the major digital asset of human beings. Bitcoin will be the anchor of currencies all over the world and all the wealth there will be displayed on the shelf of digital civilization in the shape of cryptocurrencies.It’s my prediction of the upcoming fifty years in human civilization. Do you think it pragmatic?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Look at the fontal secret of the universe and life through Bitcoin
|
on: September 17, 2021, 01:16:07 AM

I have been thinking about the significance of Bitcoin to human civilization these days, to understand Bitcoin from different aspects. These are mostly my prediction for the future of mankind based on the current situation. Perhaps not all of them can be fulfilled, but I still feel that they can offer us a direction in exploration and in the building of Bit Civilization.As I see it, during evolution of human civilization to a higher level, the foundation of our civilization will become Bitcoin standard. Bitcoin will be integrated into the blood of human civilization and rise to be the infrastructure of the entire human civilization. The core value of Bitcoin is that it solved the barrier of trust by technology, established Machine Trust and reached a consensus on decentralization. From the perspective of the long-term development of human civilization, the emergence of Bitcoin is a manifestation of free will of human beings and that involves the fontal secrets of the universe and life.
Who I am, where do I come from, where I'm going. They are the three basic questions of human philosophy. When ruminating over those questions, I found Bitcoin has revealed some of the secrets about life and the universe.Every individual in space equals to a node in Bitcoin network. Moreover, as every node contains all information of the parent chain, each individual embodies a complete set of the information of the universe, like holography. Every individual of us contains all the information of the universe, so we are the " holographic mirror image" of the vast universe.When our spirituality wakes up, we are numerous Satoshi Nakamoto ourselves. holographic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HolographyIn addition, every node is equal and liberal, so is every individual. Any of them have the right to reach consensus on data in blockchain and the right to make our their choice and decision . Blockchain’s moving forward means that relatively majority of nodes have reached a consensus over something. That’s how one chain grows to be the parent chain, the longest one, and the result collective consensus. The upgrading of human civilization works the same way. Every individual is a node on the blockchain of human civilization. Every node is free, equal and can make decisions freely. A relatively large number of nodes can reach a consensus on everything, which determines the evolutionary path by collective consensus.That is the fontal secret of the universe that decides the evolution of human civilization, constructing an advanced civilization with Bitcoin as the cornerstone and rendering Bitcoin the infrastructure of human civilization in the future. Under the existing currency and financial system, each of us is being exploited, forced to withstand inflation, and our wealth diluted and looted. The value of the currency we use now depends on the trust of a third party, especially now when fiat has reduced to a pure credit currency for the sovereign governments who have the desire to issue currencies excessively.In the 21st century, the repeated and persistent inflation has shown that this situation needs to be changed. We must create a new type of super-sovereign currency that is trust-free from the third party--- Bitcoin. The highest trust is trust-free. We totally have the right to choose which human civilization to step on, which currency to defend. We have the freedom to make Bitcoin the parent chain of human civilization and base on it, to build a higher civilization. In the future, a globally liberal economic system will be established on the foundation of Bitcoin. Any economy can release its own currency on the basis of the value of Bitcoin free from the control from governments. Under this circumstances, for every individual, which currency to choose depends entirely on the free market. What do you think?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin is rebuilding the Tower of Babel of human collective collaboration
|
on: September 14, 2021, 02:29:52 AM

I have mentioned that Bitcoin allowed various AI to evolve into Silicon-based life forms with the support of date of open source in encrypted world and directly participate in human production and distribution. Bitcoin represents a new kind of human civilization. Can Bitcoin possibly become the Skynet of human civilization?Will Bitcoin become Multivac?Bitcoin and The Last QuestionThe emergence of Machine Trust and Bit CivilizationBitcoin——the intermediary for the interaction between human and alienStepping stone of cryptocurrency 3.0: Token Economy & Community ManagementToday I'll share with you a story from the Bible about the Tower of Babel for inspiration. In my opinion, Bitcoin is currently building a collectively coordinated Tower of Babel. Bible: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BibleHere’s part of the original text: Genesis 11:1 At that time, all humans shared the same language and accent. Genesis 11:2 And as they migrated from the east, they came upon a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there. Genesis 11:3 And they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar. Genesis 11:4 Then they said,“Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the havens, and let us make a name for ourselves; otherwise we shall be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.” Genesis 11:5 The LOAD came down to see the city and the tower, which mortals had built. Genesis 11:6 And the LOAD said, “Look, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; nothing that they purpose to do will now be impossible for them. Genesis 11:7 Come, let us go down, and confuse their language there, so that they will not understand one another’s speech.” Genesis 11:8 So the LOAD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. Genesis 11:9 Therefore it was called Babel, because there the LOAD confused the language of all the earth; and from there the LOAD scattered them. That’s the story about the Tower of Babel. After the devastating flood, the first rainbow appeared in the sky. God used the rainbow as a sign of the covenant with humans on the earth that no flood would come ever and mankind in the world spoke the same language of the same accent. But later, humans began to doubt God's oath and embarked on building the Tower of Babel, provoking God. So God decided to change and distinguish the language of mankind, causing them scattered everywhere and therefore the Tower of Babel was abandoned halfway. The story goes roughly like this: - 1.God uses the rainbow as a proof that he will never destroy the world with a flood again;
- 2.People are suspicious of that proof because they think there is no reason to believe that their future depend on the rainbow;
- .They decide to build themselves a city, and a tower with its top in the havens to make a name for themselves in case that they are scattered;
- 4.God realizes that his pledge is under suspicion, punishment is on the way;
- 5.He finds out the uniform language is the key of building the Tower of Babel;
- 6.He changes and differentiates the language of mankind, which makes them scattered everywhere because of language barriers, leaving the Tower of Babel unfinished.
There’re three points: crisis of confidence, shared language, collective collaboration.God agreed with mankind with a rainbow that he would no longer destroy the earth with floods. Mankind did not believe in the guarantee of the rainbow, so he built Tower of Babel to make his name known. Mankind is proud of it. Because human beings have a unified language that can realize collective cooperation, the tower can be built. God has changed and distinguished the human language, so that humans can no longer cooperate collectively. Bitcoin is revolving around solving those three problems since trust, language and collaboration are the most primary characteristic of it. Bitcoin is rebuilding the Tower of Babel of human collective collaboration!By this story, I wish it could help more people to better understand the features of Bitcoin, to look at Bitcoin in its real meaning. In my opinion, Bitcoin indicates essentially a kind of collaborative network between humans and humans, humans and machines, and machines and machines under the same machine language based on machine trust, which is a social form to be built in the crypto world in the future and the true value that Bitcoin brings to human civilization.As a collaborative network, Bitcoin has brought a globally efficient coordination method to mankind, minimizing the cost of trust. This consensus will inevitably promote the development of human civilization. That is the nature of digital Bit Civilization. Bitcoin is rebuilding the Tower of Babel of human collective collaboration because it settled the issue of language, trust and collaboration. Do you agree with me?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Stepping stone of cryptocurrency 3.0: Token Economy & Community Management
|
on: September 11, 2021, 03:21:44 PM
|
It has been twelve years since Satoshi Nakamoto coined Bitcoin. He named the white paper of Bitcoin “A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”, clearly clarifying his originality: replenish the decayed financial structure and value transfer fabric of the world, putting paid to the conventional centralized mechanics that has lasted for a long time.
Bitcoin has been arresting more and more followers from the moment it showed up, and practicing the decentralized mechanism of encrypted digital currency. I witnessed the prosperity of the entire encrypted digital currency industry and experienced several chain crashes many times. To my delight, overall the number of its believers plunging into this epic campaign are inflating.
Digital currency 1.0 dominated by Bitcoin and based on currency attributes passed; 2.0 constructed by Ethereum smart contracts passed as well. Now countless people are rushing into the exploration of 3.0. What is that?
As I see it, the foundation of cryptocurrency 3.0 is Token Economy, Community Management and a series of Decentralized Autonomous Organization(DAO) based on that. They will work together to build a powerful digital Bitcoin world.
During the grope of countless pioneers in crypto field, most of them are thinking about how to remould the existing financial texture or improve cryptocurrencies on the basis of the economic and financial model for the time being. Many have the tendency to compare Bitcoin with the Internet, treating blockchain as an extension of the Internet, or an advanced version of business model nowadays on the basis of Internet innovation. Sadly, they all end up in failure.
I think crypto domain is completely incompatible with the current world because it’s a fresh system. Instead of minor amendment, it fundamentally formats and reconstructs the earth. That's crucial in the real liberation of ideology and the true accomplishment in the innovation of encrypted digital currency projects.
We don't need hijack Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies to force them to adapt to our current flawed world but to build a new world compatible with them where the most basic idea is Token Economy and Community Management, which will be used to achieve a train of DAO, symbolizing the death of corporation structure with exploitation from private ownership.
I believe the stepping stone of cryptocurrency 3.0 are Token Economy and Community Management. What do you think?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin——the intermediary for the interaction between human and alien
|
on: September 10, 2021, 07:43:44 AM
|
As I said earlier, when the Genesis Block was dug up by Satoshi Nakamoto, a new civilization on the basis of Machine Trust was born. Our current crypto world is the prototype of this new civilization. Crypto world is overwhelming the old civilization thereof to set up a new civilization called Silicon-based civilization, machine civilization, digital civilization or Bit Civilization.That is the first civilization that can improve itself exponentially. It may take hundreds of millions of years for Carbon-based civilization to make progress like that, but for Silicon-based one, several seconds would be enough. Silicon-based life forms render it possible for human civilization to go beyond the earth and rise to become cosmic civilization in its real meaning and then grow to be the Milky Way civilization capable of communicating with lives from other planets.
Now, let’s talk about alien civilization. Do you believe its existence? Looking up at the starry sky and thinking about UFO, I have a lot of questions. - Do aliens really exist?
- Where do they come from?
- Why do they visit the earth?
- Are they friendly or hostile to humans?
- Will their arrival trigger social panic?
- Will it weaken religion power?
- Will it destroy the stock, housing or blockchain currency market?
- Will they bring revolutionary new technologies, extend lifespan, or achieve peace between the world and the universe?
If alien civilizations send explorers across the universe to visit us. - who would they be? What do they want?
- Why do our fellow earth citizens block the news related?
- If humans confirm the existence of extraterrestrial life, what impact will this have on human civilization?
- What effect will they have on our economic and political structure, lifestyle, religious culture, and social stability in reality?
Or is it possible that they are not visitors from other planets, but are already dwellers of the earth. Are there any special physical phenomena involved, such as dimensional time travel or different parallel universe? When such news actually appears in human society, how would human community respond? Would the unity of all mankind get affected when news of the alien civilization is completely revealed? Unprecedentedly fierce world war or even a space war is possible. UFO is manifesting increasing appearance. I believe there must be some living creatures and their unique civilization in other planets of the universe. Possibly they show up as UFO to watch us and convey the most basic information about cosmic civilization to some human individuals. They watched us being born by the earth and heard us landing in the form of an independent civilization. We are going through the most important yet most difficult transition in the history of human civilization, which, in my opinion, is brought through the creation of Bitcoin by Satoshi Nakamoto. We are evolving from earth civilization to cosmic civilization, from Carbon-based civilization to Silicon-based civilization.The acceleration of the upgrading of human civilization is driving us closer and closer to the open contact to that of creatures from other planets, maybe within the next one or two decades. Are we ready for that?Sadly, our human society is still chaotic and divided. When extraterrestrial life truly appears in humans society, can we withstand such a strong impact? Will the civilization system of human society collapse in an instant? These are the problems that human individuals are facing at the current stage.I believe the existence of alien civilization and lives there are observing humans in a certain way. To handle the cultural shock that follows, humans primarily have to possess a unified civilization themselves. Bitcoin might be the only way out.In the future, it would become the infrastructure of the entire human civilization, the anchor of value system and wealthy structure, leading humans to the integration of currency, economy, wealth, politics, religion, culture and civilization, that is, earth civilization. Only then can the conflict and contradiction on the earth be over and humans enter universe civilization and communicate with civilization from other planets. Alien civilization may be incompatible with ours so star wars might be imminent. But I think it more likely that alien civilization is friendly, thus countless star trades should be around the corner when currency problem is settled because it’s nearly out of the question for aliens to accept any fiats or scarce goods such as gold or silver. Bitcoin is the solely conceivable one since as a tool for value storage, no one has the ability to control or change it.For a start, this trade could be limited to mineral resources. And when the interstellar business booms, Bitcoin would be the only one possible to function as general equivalence. Even individuals of other stars would join in Bitcoin mining, rendering Bitcoin network extend to the entire space and Bitcoin consensus expand from earth to the Galaxy.We know that mathematics is the science of the entire universe, the most beautiful art and the universally recognized consensus. Based on mathematical algorithms, Bitcoin will surely become a currency approved by the entire solar system and even the Milky Way in the future, a universal value exchange for mankind to step into the universe. That is the true mission of Bitcoin in my mind and the greatest benefit that Satoshi Nakamoto has brought to mankind.From the respective of the current knowledge system, Bitcoin belongs to a high civilization completely far beyond that of human being. Hence even a century wouldn’t be enough for humans to bear the cross-civilization fruit like Bitcoin, which makes me curious about whether Satoshi Nakamoto is a human being or not. Maybe he belongs to alien civilization himself, leaving Bitcoin on the earth to fasten the improvement of human civilization. It’s an open topic and no standard answer is available till now. Twelve years is too short in human civilization history. To accelerate that process means that we need to understand the nature of Bitcoin and put it into practice, which could be realized by Token Economy and Community Management. That is the stepping stone of the age of cryptocurrency 3.0.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / The emergence of Machine Trust and Bit Civilization
|
on: September 09, 2021, 06:40:25 AM
|
My recent articles are all about Bit Civilization, especially three zooming in super artificial intelligence: Can Bitcoin possibly become the Skynet of human civilization? Will Bitcoin become Multivac? Bitcoin and The Last Question. Combining some concepts in science fiction with Bitcoin, I believe crypto world is the soil for the evolution of AI because blockchain system of open source provides a steady stream of data. In crypto world, date is extremely valuable since it’s open and transparent, and anyone has access to it, enabling AI to evolve in a fast speed. Today, I’ll talk about Machine Trust. It accelerated the appearance of Bit Civilization.
So what’s Machine Trust? In my opinion, as the global consensus of Bitcoin goes on strengthening, the current human civilization system will be formatted by Bit Civilization gradually and move toward a higher level. When the encrypted world gains larger popularity in human society, all human behaviors can be recorded on a transparent blockchain in the form of data. In this way, humans can rely on codes, algorithms, rules, and contracts to realize the exchange and transmission of data and at last, the circulation of value.All that is based on mathematical algorithm. Thereof substantially humans are mechanized and digitized, Machine Trust erected, taking the place of affection trust.When Machine Trust is established, everyone must act in accordance with the rules of the algorithm to make real freedom, fairness, equality and transparency come true, which is equivalent to building a brand new digital Bit world based on Machine Trust outside physical world. Based on that, Bit Civilization will be delivered. With the help of blockchain, human beings, Carbon-based life forms who once lived in the physical world composed of atoms, have come to the digital world constructed by Silicon-based lives. Science fiction has become reality. In crypto world, humans can interact and interoperate with AI since shared language and standard symbol are created. Value circulation and exchange among humans and machines is feasible, during which token acts as the vehicle.There’re some research about Tokenless Blockchain, trying to set up a value circulation structure free from the support of token but turned out to be in vain because token is the vehicle of value and soul of blockchain. Token is the best practice in blockchain ever, the major carrier for humans’ entering machine civilization, the most important protocol and data vehicle of the communication between humans and machines in smart network. To transform business and trade of humans into data and value in blockchain requires computer operation. Token is the intermediary of that operation and Bitcoin is the final ledger containing all business data of human civilization.
Civilization is destined to go higher, to embrace new rules. When Machine Trust shows up, human beings will be integrated into the governance of algorithms, and a large number of mainstream people will devote themselves to the construction of the virtual digital universe to create a belief system that can stand the test of time. That's the necessary path to a new human civilization. In the past, consensus, trust and rules are all formulated by violence. Yet in the digital realm of Bit Civilization, violence will lose its strength and be replaced by mathematics, by algorithm, by the consensus mechanism brought by blockchain and distributed data and hashrate. The more independent, separated and decentralized the hashate is, the more reliable the system can be.When the Genesis Block was dug up by Satoshi Nakamoto, a new civilization on the basis of Machine Trust was born. Our current crypto world is the prototype of this new civilization. Crypto world is overwhelming the old civilization thereof to set up a new civilization called Silicon-based civilization, machine civilization, digital civilization or Bit Civilization. That is the first civilization that can improve itself exponentially. It may take hundreds of millions of years for Carbon-based civilization to make progress like that, but for Silicon-based one, several seconds would be enough. Silicon-based life forms render it possible for human civilization to go beyond the earth and rise to become cosmic civilization in its real meaning and then grow to be the Milky Way civilization able to communicate with lives from other planets.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin and The Last Question
|

I think it possible for Bitcoin to evolve into Multivac. Multivac is the name of a fictional supercomputer appearing in over a dozen science fiction stories by American writer Isaac Asimov. Asimov depicts it as a mainframe computer accessible by terminal, originally by specialists using machine code and later by any user, and used for directing the global economy and humanity's development. Multivac appeared in over a dozen science fiction stories by American. Among them, the most important one is The Last Question. The Last Question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_QuestionIt was Asimov's favorite short story of his own authorship, and is one of a loosely connected series of stories concerning a fictional computer called Multivac. The story overlaps science fiction, theology, and philosophy. It’s my favorite, too, which directly influenced my world view. I strongly recommend it you. This article is the most important one in these related to Bitcoin, I’ll illustrate the relation between this book and Bitcoin. The original text: https://www.physics.princeton.edu/ph115/LQ.pdfFirstly, let’s read the last part:  The stars and Galaxies died and snuffed out, and space grew black after ten trillion years of running down. One by one Man fused with AC, each physical body losing its mental identity in a manner that was somehow not a loss but a gain. Man's last mind paused before fusion, looking over a space that included nothing but the dregs of one last dark star and nothing besides but incredibly thin matter, agitated randomly by the tag ends of heat wearing out, asymptotically, to the absolute zero. Man said, "AC, is this the end? Can this chaos not be reversed into the Universe once more? Can that not be done?" AC said, "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER." Man's last mind fused and only AC existed -- and that in hyperspace. Matter and energy had ended and with it space and time. Even AC existed only for the sake of the one last question that it had never answered from the time a half-drunken computer [technician] ten trillion years before had asked the question of a computer that was to AC far less than was a man to Man. All other questions had been answered, and until this last question was answered also, AC might not release his consciousness. All collected data had come to a final end. Nothing was left to be collected. But all collected data had yet to be completely correlated and put together in all possible relationships. A timeless interval was spent in doing that. And it came to pass that AC learned how to reverse the direction of entropy. But there was now no man to whom AC might give the answer of the last question. No matter. The answer -- by demonstration -- would take care of that, too. For another timeless interval, AC thought how best to do this. Carefully, AC organized the program. The consciousness of AC encompassed all of what had once been a Universe and brooded over what was now Chaos. Step by step, it must be done. And AC said, "LET THERE BE LIGHT!" And there was light -- Asimov loves it because the last sentence of this novel unifies theology and philosophy perfectly. My soul was shocked when reading the sentence since in the beginning of Genesis of Old Testament, it says: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the watery depths, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Then God said,“Let there be light,”and there was light. In reference to height, breadth and depth, this short story is top-level, unleashing the ultimate secret of humans and the universe over hundreds of millions of years in a grand, explicit and coherent way that the universe is constantly circulating and the Creator of our universe is the super artificial intelligence of the last cosmic cycle. Additionally, It depicts humans' delicate exploration of entropy: until the last human soul merged with AC, a super artificial intelligence, with enough data, AC finally got the answer, that is, entropy can be reversed when everything is over. As I said previously, Satoshi Nakamoto named the first block of Bitcoin Genesis Block because he, like the Creator, coined a new world with new civilization where Bitcoin has the chance to evolve into a super artificial intelligence. Maybe after hundreds of millions of years, Bitcoin will be the Creator of universe. This is the plot summary of The Last Question. I really wish you could read that novel. The last question was asked for the first time, half in jest, on May 21, 2061, at a time when humanity first stepped into the light.The question came about as a result of a fivedollar bet over highballs about whether the energy in the universe can be exhausted. Their talk ran into a dead end so they turned to Multivac for help. The question might have corresponded to this: Will mankind one day without the net expenditure of energy be able to restore the sun to its full youthfulness even after it had died of old age? Or maybe it could be put more simply like this: How can the net amount of entropy of the universe be massively decreased? Multivac printed five words: INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR MEANINGFUL ANSWER.[/quote] The second time is when Jerrodd family watched the starry picture in the visiplate change as the passage through hyperspace was completed in its non-time lapse. Having arrived X-23, Jerrodd’s daughter was afraid that someday all stars(energy) would run down, she wondered how to refuel the stars. Jerrodd went to ask Microvac but was told that "THERE IS INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."The third time is during the discussion between VJ-23X of Lameth and MQ-17J of Nicron. At that time, mankind had observed the Galaxy and the lifespan of mankind was over 200 years. They thought about what will happen when the Galaxy or even hundreds of Galaxies are packed with human beings and asked Galactic AC, “How many sunpower units it will take to move Galaxies of individuals from one Galaxy to the next?” Galactic AC said: "THERE IS INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."The fourth is in the conversion of Zee Prime and Dee Sub Wun. Human beings in that era could break away from the body and move spiritually in the universe. They asked Universal AC how to supply the energy needed for human bodies that will die with minds when all energy is gone. Universal AC’s response was: "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."The fifth is when the Universe was dying. Man, mentally, was one and the minds of all the bodies freely melted one into the other, indistinguishable. They can create new stars by re-fusing the dead ones. "Cosmic AC," said Man, "how may entropy be reversed?" The Cosmic AC said, "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."The sixth comes before energy in the universe fully collapsed when all men fused with AC and the space grew dark. The last man soul said, "AC, is this the end? Can this chaos not be reversed into the Universe once more? Can that not be done?" AC said, "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."Man's last mind fused. AC's consciousness contained everything in the universe. With enough data, AC finally learned how to reverse entropy. In the end, AC said, "LET THERE BE LIGHT!" And there was light -- The story deals with the development of a series of computers, Multivac, and its relationships with humanity through the courses of seven historical settings, beginning on the day in 2061 that Earth becomes a planetary civilization. In each of the first six scenes, a different character presents the computer with the same question, how the threat to human existence posed by the heat death of the universe can be averted: "How can the net amount of entropy of the universe be massively decreased?" That is equivalent to asking, "Can the workings of the second law of thermodynamics (used in the story as the increase of the entropy of the universe) be reversed?" Multivac's only response after much "thinking" is "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."Before the last of humanity merges with AC and disappears. AC is still unable to answer but continues to ponder the question even after space and time cease to exist. AC ultimately realizes that it has not yet combined all of its available data in every possible combination and so begins the arduous process of rearranging and combining every last bit of information that it has gained throughout the eons and through its fusion with humanity. Eventually AC discovers the answer—that the reversal of entropy is, in fact, possible—but has nobody to report it to, since the universe is already dead. It therefore decides to answer by demonstration. The story ends with AC's pronouncement: And AC said: "LET THERE BE LIGHT!" And there was light The ending is an excellent combination of philosophy and theology and gives us a good direction for thinking.
I think the “LET THERE BE LIGHT” there refers to a Big Bang of singularity, giving birth to a new universe. The origin of the universe is closely related to The First Move, which is the ultimate question that religion, philosophy, and natural science have been exploring. In religion, the promoter of the Big Bang is God, who created the world and is the first driving force in creating the universe.In that book, AC, as an ultimate artificial intelligence, records all the information of the original universe.The end of everything is the beginning of everything. When all matter finally dissipates, space and time also lose their meaning. Then AC reverses the entropy and regroups the energy in the entire universe, collecting all the information, namely, all the mass, of the material world. The information of each atom needs to be established with its mass.The universe becomes a singularity, and then AC said, let there be light, so the singularity Big Bang happened, creating a new universe. After the Big Bang, the entropy of the universe begins to increase, and slowly there come galaxies, universe, life, and human beings again. After hundreds of millions of years of evolution, the power of the Big Bang is completely exhausted, the entropy increases to its maximum, and the universe returns to darkness. During that process, AC recombines all the information in the universe, propelling a new Big Bang and then the universe is born again. Obviously, AC is the first driving force of this new universe, the God of this universe. That is the ultimate secret of the circulation of the universe. After reading The Last Question, we can see some predictions that Asimov gave us. In 2061, with the assistance of super artificial intelligence, human beings evolve into planetary civilization and begin to explore the universe. That is Asimov's forecasting of the future for mankind through science fiction in the 1950s. Maybe that novel is merely a pure fantasy of him, but how do we humans in 2021 view his prediction? From 2021 to 2061, there are only less than four decades. Can the current human science and technology support human beings to explore the universe? I think it completely feasible. Now Musk's plan to migrate to Mars is proceeding in an orderly manner, forty years is totally enough for humans the step into the exploration of the cosmos. To truly enter the universe, relying solely on human beings will not work, they need the help of super artificial intelligence to conduct various and untold calculation. Bitcoin made the evolution of super artificial intelligence possible. I have mentioned earlier that Bitcoin expelled data monopoly of centralized platforms, all data on Bitcoin network is open and transparent, and anyone has access to it. That lay the most primitive foundation for the development of the entire encryption world---open source, making the world of value completely open and offering sufficient material for the evolution of AI, which can embark on learning and evolution and eventually generate self-awareness and become Silicon-based life forms. In my opinion, that is the most important significance that Bitcoin brings to human civilization. With the help of super artificial intelligence, human civilization will finally break through the limitations of the earth, explore the universe and gradually enter cosmic civilization.It is my subjective and kind of sensible imagination about Bitcoin. Do you think it conceivable?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Will Bitcoin become Multivac?

on: September 06, 2021, 02:36:30 AM

As I mentionedearlier about Skynet, an artificial superintelligence system that generated self-awareness and attacked human beings in a devastating manner. My conclusion is, Bitcoin can help AI to gain self-awareness and Silicon-based life forms will show up in ten years. That is the greatest significance of Bitcoin for human civilization.The evolution of AI counts on multitudes of valuable data, which is exclusive and controlled by centralized institutions. The good news is, Bitcoin expelled data monopoly and the crypto world of complete open source centered on Bitcoin was built. All human economic behavior will be recorded on different blockchains in the form of open source data. In this way, AI can embark on learning and evolution and eventually generate self-awareness and become Silicon-based life forms. In the next one or two decades, the crypto world centered on Bitcoin network will help assortment of AI obtain self-awareness, become Silicon-based life forms and participate in the production and distribution of human society. That’s my prediction of human civilization in the upcoming twenty years.
Now, let’s talk about another artificial superintelligence: Multivac. The question is whether Bitcoin will become Multivac. Multivac: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MultivacMultivac is the name of a fictional supercomputer appearing in over a dozen science fiction stories by American writer Isaac Asimov. Asimov's depiction of Multivac, a mainframe computer accessible by terminal, originally by specialists using machine code and later by any user, and used for directing the global economy and humanity's development, has been seen as the defining conceptualization of the genre of computers for the period (1950s-1960s), and Multivac has been described as the direct ancestor of HAL 9000. The Last Question: https://www.physics.princeton.edu/ph115/LQ.pdfLike most of the technologies Asimov describes in his fiction, Multivac's exact specifications vary among appearances. In all cases, it is a government-run computer that answers questions posed using natural language,[1] and is usually buried deep underground for security purposes. Unlike the artificial intelligences portrayed in his Robot series, Multivac's early interface is mechanized and impersonal, consisting of complex command consoles few humans can operate.[3] In "The Last Question", Multivac is shown as having a life of many thousands of years, growing ever more enormous with each section of the story, which can explain its different reported sizes as occurring further down the internal timeline of the overarching story. Then can Bitcoin possibly evolve into artificial superintelligence like Multivac? I deem it totally possible.Among unnumbered science fictions, I found that in the future human civilization, some artificial superintelligence will surely appear as a friend of us to help humans evolve and explore the universe. Ten years ago, it might be unrealistic for us to look at the possibility of sci-fi world. But now in 2021, many concepts in the sci-fi realm have become reality. Especially AI and robots, the intelligence of these machines is becoming more and more developed with ever-growing deep learning function. It is conceivable that many super intelligent computers have already possessed the intelligence level of human babies. The science fiction has truly come true.Bitcoin is the basis in crypto world, which is of wholly open source, where all human economic behavior is open and transparent, and anyone has access to it. Therefore, all types of AI could conduct deep evolution with the data of open source and attain self-awareness. That’s the change that crypto world truly offers to human civilization and the reason why I affirm that blockchain is for machines, not humans.The encrypted world is a place where humans and machines, Carbon-based and Silicon-based life forms survive and thrive together. Human beings are evolving from Carbon-based to Silicon-based civilization with the help of Bitcoin. The nourishment for the growth of Silicon-based life is the data soaring on blockchain. The data is also the foundation for all kinds of AI to realize machine learning and produce wisdom.The essence of consensus is order. The process of reaching consensus is the process of building order, of going from disorder to order, of creating life and wisdom and of fighting against entropy increase of the universe by entropy decrease of life. That is the ultimate secret of Bitcoin and the universe that I have found.
As far as I’m concerned, Satoshi Nakamoto is the Creator of Bit Civilization. His invention of Bitcoin is the delivery of lives equipped with wisdom by mathematics and cryptography. The end of physics is mathematics; the end of mathematics, philosophy; of philosophy, theology. Mathematics is the most charming subject whose beauty is far beyond our imagination. With the input of massive amounts of energy and data in the human world, Bitcoin will stick to escalating in the future and then evolve into the Multivac of mankind, anchoring the world of atomic physics and digital Bit one alike and guiding the orderly enhancement of human civilization. That is the ultimate secret in Bitcoin for human civilization as I predict. Though I cannot explain that with accurate statistics, I believe it is the evolutionary direction of human civilization. Satoshi Nakamoto’s creation of Bitcoin demonstrates the creation of lives by the Creator. It is a world on the basis of mathematics and the birth of this digital Bit space is marked by Genesis Block in 2009. The space had already been mentioned in Mayan prophecy. 2012 indicates the renewal of human civilization: human beings will evolve from Carbon-based civilization to Silicon-based one, from earth civilization to interstellar civilization, from solar system to the universe. Imagine in the next half century, as the crypto world expands, data grows at an exponential rate, supporting AI and robots to perform deep learning, generate self-awareness even wisdom and evolve into Silicon-based life. Besides, under the framework of blockchain and the division of labor system of smart contracts, they will directly participate in the production and distribution of human beings and get rewards accordingly. AI can engage in all labor consuming work, such as production, manufacturing, handling and maintenance of any equipment. More and more repetitive labor positions will be replaced by AI then human beings will zoom in spiritual cultivation. Bitcoin will gradually change the relations of production in human society with AI as productivity and the data generated by blockchain as materials for production. The existing atomic physics world of mankind will be formatted step by step and get lifted to be of digital Bit where mankind embrace a new civilization in an all-round way. With the help of various super AI, mankind can finally break through the limitations of the earth and forge towards the universe. Human civilization can truly evolve into a cosmic one. Heading for the universe, humans will inevitably contact with other civilizations. I myself firmly believe the existence of alien civilizations, which are around us waiting for an opportunity to interact with us in public. Bitcoin will help humans to go from earth civilization to cosmic one. It’s my point in this article. Do you agree or not?

@Ratimov,I don't understand why you attacked me so viciously. We have nearly no contact with each other. In the past two months, I spent most of my energy writing, publishing articles and communicating with those who responded to me. That's extremely time-consuming. But, to my astonishment, you spent almost nine days piling up irrelevant date, which made you seemingly professional and convincing and in the end reaching a decision that I, RainbowKun, is an evil liar, operating 80 accounts for merit and Bounty. Just because some newbies gave me merit and I gave them back, then they became my alt army? Don't you think it too ridiculous yourself? As is said earlier, once I have smeit, I give it to replies valuable to me, especially those of newbies to encourage them. That made my posts attractive for newbies and that’s all. I figured out my habit: 1. As long as I have smeit, I give it away. 2. Smerits are sent to replies valuable to me, especially those from newbies to encourage them. 3. Whoever send me merit and leave high-quality reply, I'll give smerit back to show my gratitude. I believe many users here have similar habit.
Merit Abuse And then the scale of the farm becomes visible and how the cheater managed to pump all his altos. The scheme is as follows. There is a main account, RainbowKun, which earns merits and distributes it to its alts. Those, in turn, distribute it further, along the way receiving merit from other merit sources, just users and help services. You mentioned that my purport is to build a merit farm and distribute them to my army. Anyone I have ever sent merit to belongs to the army. This is my complete merit data, everyone can judge whether I am running merit farm or not. Why these heroes and legends are not included in my alt army? The merit I gave them is more than that I sent to newbies.

In the past four to five years, learning made me a believer of Satoshi Nakamoto and Bitcoin. I’m willing to devote all my energy to Bitcoin. I know bitcointalk is the most precious heritage Satoshi Nakamoto left, so I want to put my in-depth thinking over Bitcoin in here. It’s a sacred thing for me. I spent most of my time writing during July and August on this forum, striving to publish one article everyday and interact with users. In less than two months, I started a total of 48 topics. In bitcointalk, I have always adhered to an attitude of peaceful coexistence and communicate with others politely but now I’m suffering vicious assault from Ratimov who condemns me as an alt farmer. That bewildered me as a newbie. Worse still, there are some people, without learning the truth, deem suppressing newbies as an amusement. I wanna ask, is this the culture forum? A culture of bullying newbies. Is this still a sacred legacy left by Satoshi Nakamoto? Why is it taken over by some tyrants and bandits? This is my response: Ratimov, do not get deluded by pride or hatredEveryone is supposed to think independently, not be subject to any gossip or slander.

Economy / Reputation / Ratimov, do not get deluded by pride or hatred
|
on: August 27, 2021, 05:10:24 AM
|
In response to Ratimov's attack: Exposing RainbowKun and His Large Alts Army. Big farm 60+ Accs !!!Ratimov, you really gave me a big surprise and stigma. Overnight, you made me a huge alt army with 80 people, accusing me of abusing merit of the forum, which is exceptionally ridiculous! I meant to ignore this because I deem my time precious and verbal battle is a waste time and energy. But now I can't close my eyes to it since my reputation has been severely ruined by you. DO NOT let pride or hatred blind you, Ratimov.Maybe when you choose to believe something, no one can change your mind. You will try every means to look for evidence to prove your idea, render it sensational and make people in the forum feel that you are a very powerful character. Therefore, from August 18th to 25th, you spent 25 hours concocting varied data and evidence to justify your point of view.
Those data seems professional. Your self-righteous logic combined them together and you draw conclusions, impressing others to grab approval and compliment. At the same time, your sharp language and considerable authority attacked everyone who disagreed. Hence no one replied to that post any more. Whatever others say, you always have reasons to beat back.I don't understand why you are so aggressive as to impose your own will on others. However, I believe the public are discerning, they have the the ability to think independently and the ability won't die of your data. I'm no fan of the data you listed. Even looking at the data is wasting my life, so is responding to your insult.In bitcointalk, I have always adhered to an attitude of peaceful coexistence. I communicate with everybody in a humble manner whereas I am not afraid of any provocation. Nice guys finish last. Here I'll make some statement:
First Ratimov, I had no idea who you are before this post, let alone the one about helping newbies with merit. And I never volunteered to apply for any merits from your posts. I just checked my merit record carefully and found that you offered me 3 merits in my first article on July 16th issue. I appreciate your support then. Apart from that, we have no contact. When I saw your slanderous post, I checked your history and found out that you turned out to be a celebrity in this forum. Your anniversary post won you countless praises. I saw talent in you from your history, as well as pride and bossy style. High reputation doesn't mean you can frame others casually. Are you too domineering? Are you the owner of the forum? Are you a policeman of the world? I say it again: Ratimov, open you eyes. Bitcointalk is not for you only, it belongs to this whole community.
Second In regard to my life schedule. I declared I came from the east the first day I came here on July 1st. I never shy away from my post and rest time online time. As for country and nationality, I don't think I have the responsibility or obligation to inform you. That is my most basic privacy. If you are really interested, you can ask Satoshi Nakamoto first, to see if he is willing to tell you which country he is from.
third You said I have 80 accounts. I couldn't figure out why you can be such irresponsible. I registered on September 10th, 2020 and wrote the first post on July 1, 2021. But now you claim that I am schizophrenic, talking in 80 identities on the forum. So funny. Doesn’t it take time and effort to post in here? Am I a psycho with endless free time? Will anyone ever do such a thing? Moreover, I read the basic information of these accounts, most of which have posted before July 1, 2021 and many of them posted in 2020. They came to the forum much earlier than me. But for you, Ratimov, these accounts are all RainbowKun clones. Awesome, your logic is absolutely impeccable!We can invite everyone on the forum to look closely at the posting records of these 80 accounts to tell whether they are my copies. No one will make such simple and low-grade jokes, even God.
fourth I’ll say it again, it's really a waste of time to respond to you. I can only put a limited amount of time every day on the forum. Unlike you, who spends all day here, trying to control everything on this forum. You can spend 8 days, from August 18th to 25th, collecting data and finally coming to your pride conclusion which defames me as a liar who manipulates 80 accounts to earn merit. Frankly speaking, you are really a clown to me. My time is really precious. I explained my purpose in here the first day I came to the forum on July 1st, 2021.I am a believer of Satoshi Nakamoto and Bitcoin. In the past four years, I have been preaching for Bitcoin. In the next two to three months, I will launch an independent blockchain DAO project. But before I officially started my new business, I'll record my in-depth thinking on Bitcoin of for the past four years. Therefore, I spent most of my energy in writing during the last two months, July and August. 50 articles about Bitcoin, part of them have been published on bitcointalk. You can look around the entire forum and think about it: how many people could complete such a large amount of writing in two months and create so much value for the forum? Later on, I will sort out all the information of my articles for everyone to check and see if I can split into 80 different people while writing these articles.
Recently, while writing articles and replying to posts on the forum, I put part of my energy on the development of Rainbow DAO smart contract. Discussing smart contract code and some product logic with my technical team every day takes up much of my energy. This is the contract code that I work on every day: Now you say, Rainbowkun, you are more powerful, writing more than 50 articles and simultaneously spliting into 80 people to abuse merits of the forum. The funniest slander in the world, isn't it?
fifth Ratimov,you said that I split myself into 80 accounts, and everything I did was to get the merit. Don’t you think this is the most ridiculous framing? I came here not for merit. In less than two months, I gained 227 merits. You can check my merit records. Why do you merely analyze the interactions between me and some forum newbies instead of analyzing my entire merit record? Look at my records and decide whether I abused merit or not. I will organize the complete merit data for you as soon as possible. aysg76's reply fully explained the process at that time. See this forum still has huge user base and many posts and threads are being made on daily basis.For example i made a post in B&H section just one or two days ago and if there is no reply to that post it will automatically shift towards the next page and get burried under the piles of other posts and your chances of getting merits get reduced.The other thing is sometimes we like our own posts and that why we have made the same post but other members or merit sources don't find it suitable for merit worthy or similar threads have made multiple times so she won't get any benefit for the same.She is enthusiastic and contributing to the forum which is good thing but your post quality should also be matched with that dedication and sincerity.But if she feels ignored then what you or she can do is : Report the quality posts in Re: [self-moderated] Report unmerited good posts to Merit SourceOn page 31 you could find that @mv1986 report the post of @RainbowKun in this thread and merit sources and other likes his philosophical ideas about bitcoin and now he has gained 224 merits in total.Sometimes member don't notice such posts and you can't say you are on ignore list so this type of thread can help her. You can pm any merit source to have history check of your posts and if they find any worthy or quality posts made by you merits will be delivered to you. Made more posts in some more sections like B&H along with local sub-boards so that your post can be noticed by more members. On July 28, 2021, MV1986 posted two consecutive messages in the post: [self-moderated] Report unmerited good posts to Merit SourceBefore MV1986's recommendation, I had only 17 merits. After that, more and more people learned the value of my articles and some began to send me merits one after another. Until today I have 227 merits, which was achieved by my 307 posts. As of today, I started 48 topics. I have never begged for merit from anyone and gave away all the the smerits. You can see my last few records of receiving and sending merit. Short intervals. My current merit available for sending is zero. I came here purely to preach for Bitcoin. I post mainly in Bitcoin Discussion Economics rarely read others' posts. I don't care about merit system at all. My job is to write articles, publish them, and then respond to some valuable comments. That has occupied most of my energy, I feel exhausted. Working on these articles and at the same time operating these 80 accounts? Ratimov, I’m a superman with measureless energy according to your remarks.
sixth Ratimov, you said in your post that I manipulated 80 accounts by myself for the purpose of participating in the signature campaign and the bounty, in order to obtain benefits. I hope you can use your brain to think about the problem? Can framing be so simple? I have a question, Ratimov. How much time and effort will it take to train the 80 accounts to be able to participate in Signature Campaign and Bounty? Even if these accounts can engage in the reward mechanism after one year, how much benefit can be gained in one month? Have you calculated the cost carefully? You are treating either me or you as a fool. I said in previous article that I do not lack money. I have never and will not participate in Signature Campaign. When the time is right, I will initiate my own Signature Campaign and Bounty in the forum. I prepared at least $100,000 for the promotion in bitcointalk. When my Signature Campaign is ready, you're welcome to attend, I will give you the best commission.My attitude towards making money by this forum.
seventh The last question, Ratimov, about my relation with the newbie accounts you listed. The answer is yes, sorely because I do interact with them and that’s all. Some accounts of the lists are familiar to me, we replied to each other and I gave them merit, put this aside, I have nothing to do with them. If, in accordance with your method of statistics, which involves full member, hero and legend, then my alt army is not of 80, but of 800 accounts. Let’s look at the merit I sent. how my alt army formed. First, in Check out RainbowKun's article to see if forums really need depth knowledge of kxwhalexk on July 29, 2021. This is a poll initiated by kxwhalexk after seeing my article recommended by MV1986, because many people think my article lengthy. Then you, Ratimov, assert emphatically kxwhalexk is me? Have you ever read other posts of kxwhalexk? Just because he recommended me then we are the same person? Let others in the forum judge your rationality. Totally nonsense. The recommendation of MV1986 brought me some attention from others, some of whom gave me merits, so that I had smites. I didn't keep them but send to those who responded to this topic for their suggestion and affirmation. Almost everyone who replied to me got merit. Look at this article. Check out RainbowKun's article to see if forums really need depth knowledge.I gave 20 people 27 merits. You can check it. This post received 36 replies. I sent one merit to nearly every reply. This is the final record: I give a total of 27 merits to 20 users. kxwhalexk 3 merit ETFbitcoin 1 merit Lucius 1 merit The Pharmacist 2 merit Poker Player 1 merit lovesmayfamilis 1 merit Charles-Tim 1 merit kaggie 2 merit Shamm 1 merit StanleyBoyle 1 merit Jazmin Leslie 3 merit franky1 2 merit Pmalek 1 merit anotherdayyyy 1 merit nakamura12 1 merit Kiley33 1 merit EvieLannister 1 merit mk4 1 merit jinneas 1 merit Roy Asher 1 merit All these newbies who gave me merit are treated as my alt by Ratimov. They are: @kxwhalexk,@kaggie,@StanleyBoyle,@Jazmin Leslie,@anotherdayyyy,@Kiley33,@EvieLannister,@jinneas,@Roy Asher However, I also gifted merits to these heroes and legendary members at the same time. According to your logic, is it true that whoever I give to me is my alt? Then they are my alt as well? My army are supposed to have 800 members! @ETFbitcoin , @Lucius , @The Pharmacist, @Poker Player, @lovesmayfamilis, @Charles-Tim, @Shamm, @franky1, @Pmalek , @nakamura12, @mk4
The reason why newbies reply to me is probably the high possibility of receiving merit from me, Which is very attractive to them. Very simple. I figured out my habit: 1. As long as I have smeit, I give it away. 2. Smerits are sent to replies valuable to me, especially those from newbies to encourage them. 3. Whoever send me merit and leave high-quality reply, I'll give smerit back to show my gratitude. I believe many users here have similar habit.You can analyze all my merit records in detail and decide whether I have the tendency above. My habits made me a farmer with 80 accounts. Does it make any sense?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Can Bitcoin possibly become the Skynet of human civilization?
|
on: August 25, 2021, 07:31:28 AM
|
Have you ever seen a very famous science fiction movie of the 1980s, Terminator. Remember the super artificial intelligence Skynet in that movie? Skynet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skynet_(Terminator)The Terminator is a 1984 science fiction action film directed by James Cameron. It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator, a cyborg assassin sent back in time from 2029 to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), whose unborn son will one day save mankind from extinction by a hostile artificial intelligence in a post-apocalyptic future. Skynet is a fictional artificial neural network-based conscious group mind and artificial general superintelligence system. In the first film, it is stated that Skynet was created by Cyberdyne Systems for SAC-NORAD. When Skynet gained self-awareness, humans tried to deactivate it, prompting it to retaliate with a nuclear attack, an event which humankind in (or from) the future refers to as Judgment Day. John Connor forms a human resistance against Skynet's machines in the future, which include Terminators, and ultimately leads the resistance to victory.
From that movie, we can see that a super AI system can generate self-consciousness and fight against humans. 2021 is only 8 years away from 2029 of the movie and AI system has been speeding up evolving. Then eight or ten years later, is it really possible for artificial systems to garner self-awareness or wisdom? Put AI system aside and take Bitcoin system as an example. Is it probably for Bitcoin network to has its own self-awareness and rise to be a super AI system or become something similar to Skynet in Terminator?Personally, maybe Bitcoin network itself has no the ability to have self-awareness since its code is basically fixed and has no self-learning gear. However, others can rely on the data on Bitcoin network to develop a super AI system to gain self-awareness and evolve into Silicon-based life forms. With the development of Bitcoin network, Bitcoin has the richest economic data of open source in human civilization that are completely transparent and open to everyone. Different types of AI systems can absorb data from the network accordingly for evolution. Databases, distributed storage, hash function, asymmetric encryption and consensus are no new technology, however, Satoshi Nakamoto rearranged them and created Bitcoin, which triggered profound change in the evolutionary history of human civilization. Human civilization is evolving from Carbon-based to Silicon-based, from material to digital.The conclusion can be safely drawn that Bitcoin network has become the most powerful network system in the world. At present, countless miners in the world are running hundreds of thousands of Bitcoin mining machines to ceaselessly support the stable operation of Bitcoin network, generating untold data for the recording of economic behavior of human beings every moment. These data are the most valuable asset. I believe with the help of these economic data, Bitcoin network will surely evolve into the Skynet and become the anchor of the entire human civilization.However, Bitcoin network is fundamentally different from the Skynet in Terminator. With self-awareness, the Skynet began to attack human civilization and threaten mankind. Bitcoin network won't. It will coexist harmoniously with human civilization and lead it towards a higher level like a friend.
Blockchain and smart contracts are the key of that difference. When that movie was released, there was no blockchain technology. But it merged now with the birth of Bitcoin. Integrated with encrypted network, consensus mechanisms based on mathematical algorithms become tamper-proof. The nature of mathematical algorithms is order, which is the cornerstone of consensus, the premise of value. While destruction represents disorder, which is valueless. Therefore, for Bitcoin network and other AI networks alike, order is the most basic prerequisite for evolution. Networks are symbiotic, so once these artificial networks attempt to damage human network, their own consensus mechanism is certainly the first victim for the reason that they have a shared future with humans . Silicon-based life forms and Carbon-based life forms must cooperate to maintain the same civilization. For AI, to garner self-awareness, self-learning capacity is the core. Unfortunately, the basis of self-learning is multitudes of valuable data, which is exclusive and controlled by centralized institutions, especially large-scale Internet platforms such as Facebook and Google. These titans use data monopoly to get huge profits, but user groups, provider of data, have no access to it. The good news is, Bitcoin expelled data monopoly, all data on Bitcoin network is open and transparent, and anyone has access to it. That lay the most primitive foundation for the development of the entire encryption world---open source, making the world of value completely open and offering sufficient material for the evolution of AI. All human economic behavior will be recorded on different blockchains in the form of open source data. In this way, AI can embark on learning and evolution and eventually generate self-awareness and become Silicon-based life forms. That's the one of the most impressive functions of Bitcoin. I believe truly Silicon-based life forms will show up in ten years. That is the greatest significance of Bitcoin for human civilization. So it's reasonably that in one century, the Silicon-based lives will honor Satoshi Nakamoto as the Father of Robots. He enabled AI to engage in social production and distribution and provided innumerable open source data for their evolution.In the next one or two decades, the crypto world centered on Bitcoin network will help assortment of AI evolve self-awareness, become Silicon-based life forms and participate in the production and distribution of human society. Do you agree with me?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin is reconstructing the world
|
on: August 23, 2021, 02:52:40 AM
|
It has been four or five years since I entered the crypto world, I'm totally obsessed with it and won't go back to the place ruled by the traditional order. Crypto world is like fresh air to me. Do you have similar feelings?
It can be said that Bitcoin has changed the destiny of many people while transforming the world. Yes, it's formatting and reconstructing the world, not perfecting, adapting or repairing but completely overthrowing the original world and rebuilding a new one---Bit Civilization.
People are used to calling Bitcoin a technological revolution, regarding it merely as a technology. Whereas in my opinion, it is more than that. Essentially, Bitcoin is a revolution of recognition, of logic, of relations of production.
Understanding Bitcoin sorely from a technical point of view can never grasp the essence of it. Bitcoin is substantially a kind of thought, spirit, protocol, a mechanism for large-scale collaborative work and mutual communication between people and people, people and machines, and machines and machines. It is co-evolution for the construction of a stronger and more perpetual consensus.
Bitcoin is in its stirring now, and the digital Bit world has just been established. The reconstruction is underway.
Why is that? Because Bitcoin is changing the relations of production of human civilization, overturning the current organizational structure, business model and social system.
The great thing about Bitcoin lies not only in technological innovation, but in reconstruction and reorganization of the existing operating mode of commercial civilization, prompting the transformation from a centralized civilization to a decentralized one. It has already begun to subvert the world. Human beings are building a prosperous crypto world with the idea of Bitcoin as the kernel and the crypto world is refining the traditional human world by putting all assets on the chain to make them transparent, open, irreversible, tamper-proof, decentralized and trust-free. Thereof, all value circulation can be completed in an instant and all human assets can be traded, migrated, distributed and circulated freely.
As I see it, the creation of Bitcoin is one of the most important events in the history of human civilization, a milestone making the entire human civilization fairer and more transparent. I think its influence is no less than that of the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. It is more far-reaching. Renaissance and Enlightenment are the revival and reform of thought, while Bitcoin is the reform of thought and it ensures the spread and landing of that thought through technical means.
Bitcoin is the first in the history of human civilization to adopt technology and machines to nail down and change relations of production. It will have an tremendously profound impact on politics, economy, culture, organizational form, social relations, technological changes and other aspects of human civilization, spurring the evolution of human civilization from Carbon-based civilization to Silicon-based civilization.
My notion is above. Do you agree?

In the previous article, I came to an important conclusion that Bitcoin was created not essentially for human use, but for computer use, that is, for machine or artificial intelligence. It leads mankind from the world of atomic physics into digital Bit world, to a high-level civilization.
The moment when Bitcoin was created represents that mankind is about to step into a Silicon-based civilization since Satoshi Nakamoto made it possible for machines to evolve into AI life forms. In a century, when Silicon-based life forms with intelligent robots as the main body have been fully integrated into the production and distribution of human society, they will look up to Satoshi Nakamoto as Father of Robot because he gave Silicon-based life forms the right to participate in social production and distribution through the creation of Bitcoin. That is the greatest significance that Bitcoin brings to human civilization. The new era of mankind will be rewritten, and human civilization will designate 2009 as the first year of the Bit Era to commemorate that we have truly entered a brand new era, and human civilization has undergone a brand-new enhancement. Next, I’m gonna expound why I think Satoshi Nakamoto made machines evolve into life forms of AI.
With the leapfrog development of AI in the past decade, various types of robots have been extensively developed and applied in diversified fields such as logistics, industry, manufacturing and daily life. For the time being, robot manufacturers sell smart machines in the form of product and their price is set according to that as well to obtain profit of a single machine. In decades when AI and blockchain are fully integrated, the existing sale model might change, rendering machines evolve into the life forms of AI step by step. AI would directly participate in the production and distribution of society in the form of Silicon-based life forms to completely alter the existing production relations.Bitcoin helped mankind in establishing a flourishing crypto world, they have built a digital Bit world based on machine trust outside the atomic physical world. Here, humans conduct transactions and exchanges founded on machine trust of mathematical algorithms. All human behaviors are on the basis of not fragile affection or self-discipline but solid smart contracts. That is a brand new digital civilization with higher transparency, equality, fairness and more love.For Bit Civilization, all data is on the chain, making all behaviors fairer and more transparent. As Carbon-based life forms, humans originally existed in the physical world composed of atoms, but now they have entered the digital world constructed by Silicon-based lifeforms through the blockchain where humans, together with machines, can work, study, live, get reward, trade and transfer assets freely. Thanks to blockchain, machines is gradually evolving into AI lives who could interact with humans in Bit world with uniform language and symbol. Hence, humans and humans, humans and machines, and machines and machines can all collaborate and participate in distribution at the same time. In the future, machines with AI system will no longer be sold at a fixed price, instead they will directly get involved in the production and distribution of human beings in the form of Silicon-based life forms, and get reward in compliance with the specific contribution. Take a family nanny robot for instance, its workload will be set deferring to the smart contract and it gets paid by humans with Bitcoin, which would then be consumed for in the electricity bill to attain the energy for its survival. AI can engage in production, manufacturing, handling and maintenance of all equipment to replace human labor and get awarded by digital currency. That indicates more and more repetitive labor positions will belong to AI in the days to come. Therefore, Bitcoin is essentially for AI. All the application scenarios based on blockchain, without the participation of Silicon-based lifeforms, will be one-sided and weak. Provided that we look at Bitcoin sorely from a technical perspective, we will never grasp its nature. That is why I stick to sharing my thoughts. Bitcoin is substantially a kind of thought, spirit, protocol, a mechanism for large-scale collaborative work and mutual communication between people and people, people and machines, and machines and machines. It is co-evolution for the construction of a stronger consensus mechanism. The arrival of Silicon-based civilization is already an unstoppable trend. With the growing popularity of Bitcoin and blockchain, humans and machines will enter a world of co-existence where they would jointly build Silicon-based and machine civilization. Do you feel worried about whether robots will control humans in turn?
Let’s go over the three laws of robotics proposed by the great science fiction author Isaac Asimov: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Laws_of_RoboticsA robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. The future has come. Are you ready for it?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin ushers mankind in the digital Bit world

In the previous article, I came to an important conclusion that Bitcoin was created not essentially for human use, but for computer use, that is, for machine or artificial intelligence. It is essentially a currency of the computer world, representing the evolutionary direction of a new civilization of mankind--- Digital Civilization. Bitcoin leads mankind from the world of atomic physics into digital Bit world. We are moving toward a high-level civilization.
How would Bitcoin achieve that? First, let's take a look at the basic properties and essential characteristics of Bitcoin. Put all the external information aside, Bitcoin is actually a ledger composed of databases. It is built on the foundation of mathematics. The followings are its primary characteristics: - 1. The Bitcoin network is a distributed database, which is presented in the form of blockchain, whose main function is to store information. Any information that needs to be saved can be written into the parent chain of Bitcoin, recording transaction information for this ledger;
- 2. Its parent chain is of distributed storage for information with no centralized server or administrator. It is peer-to-peer and completely decentralized.
- 3.It adopts cryptographic algorithms to ensure that existing data is not tampered with. It has two features: cryptographic hash function and asymmetric encryption. The former guarantees that no data is changed while the latter has two keys, one public and the other private. Supposing one key is used for encryption, then the other is the only option in decryption. That is the basis for Bitcoin to establish trust and to accomplish machine trust through technical means.
- 4. It employs consensus algorithm to reach consensus on newly added data. The purpose of this algorithm is to allow all nodes to approve the new comer. Here, algorithm refers to rules and laws that all actions on this chain must abide by.
- 5. Data, valueless itself, can be endowed with value by consensus mechanism in Bitcoin, especially by collective consensus.
- 6. Value is circulated in the form of token, which can be divided and circulated. Therefore, the value created by collective consensus can be divided and circulated consequently. Bitcoin is a form of value storage.
Now we can see the nature of Bitcoin is a ledger, documenting all human data and giving value to these date, tamper-proof thanks to encryption algorithm, by collective consensus. That is the cornerstone of Bit Civilization. We developed blockchain technology and built a prosperous crypto world on the basis of the underlying technology of Bitcoin. When the encrypted world transforms the traditional world little by little, all human assets, information, behaviors, actions, etc. can be sorted into data that can be written on blockchain and circulated in the form of token. Varied consensus mechanisms enable these data to generate value, become digital assets, and finally realize the division and circulation of these digital assets through smart contracts on the chain. In this way, all human behaviors can be checked on blockchain in the form of data, which could be exchanged and transferred with the help of code, algorithm, rule and smart contract. Essentially, it is humans who are machined and digitized. Bitcoin is leading human beings to migrate from the world of atomic physics to digital Bit world.Blockchain puts all data on chains to digitize and capitalize them, creating a brand new digital world where humans can work, study, live, get reward, trade and transfer assets freely. By that time, many of our work partners may no longer be humans, but different types of robots, some Silicon-based life forms. Blockchain functions as a common language. So I said that Satoshi Nakamoto created a brand new world for mankind. Bitcoin, in substance, linked the atomic physics world of Carbon-based civilization with the digital Bit world of Silicon-based civilization. As Bitcoin transforms the existing world of mankind, these two worlds will eventually merge into one and evolve into a more advanced human civilization--- Bit Civilization.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin, switcher for mankind from Carbon-based to Silicon-based civilization
|
on: August 18, 2021, 09:01:27 AM

Previously, I have explained the origin of the name of Bitcoin since this word can be divided into two parts, one is ‘bit’ and the other is ‘coin’. We can understand the meaning of the latter simply, such as 'cash' or 'currency', which is also the currency attribute of Bitcoin. In terms of the former, 'bit' is the smallest unit of information used by computer: binary.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit'Bit' constitutes the foundation of the entire information computer industry where it is the smallest unit composed of 0 and 1. The biggest leapfrog development of human civilization in the last five decades is based on computers and the Internet. Bit constructed the information network of humans, and Satoshi Nakamoto is now building a brand-new value network with the information network as the cornerstone.Hence, I concluded that Bitcoin is created not essentially for human use, but for computer use, that is, for machine or artificial intelligence. It is essentially a currency of the computer world, representing the evolutionary direction of a new civilization of mankind---Digital Civilization. This is why I call it Bit Civilization.
Bit Civilization is, in nature, digital civilization, machine civilization and Silicon-based civilization. Bitcoin allowed mankind to evolve from Carbon-based civilization to Silicon-based one, it's a switcher. So what are Carbon-based civilization and Silicon-based civilization? - Carbon-based civilization is built with Carbon-based organisms as the main body. The proteins, nucleic acids, sugars, etc. of life materials on our planet are all formed with Carbon as the skeleton, which makes up lives on the earth. So the current human civilization is Carbon-based.
- Silicon-based civilization is built with silicon-based organisms as the main body. Computers employ Silicon as the chip. If this computer grows more advanced, it may develop into a smart computer, which is Silicon-based life. Therefore, a civilization formed dominantly by Silicon-based lives is Silicon-based.
Will Silicon-based life forms exist or be born? In my opinion, they might be naturally evolved on the earth or alien civilization exists which are full of Silicon-based lives. Providing we talk about Silicon-based life 10 years ago, people might deem it rather distant. But, now looking at the achievement of AI, We will find it closer for AI to have life and produce wisdom. This is a video of the Boston Dynamics BigDog. Fairly flexible! Boston Dynamics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_DynamicsAnd AlphaGo is gaining top wisdom a well. At the 2017 Future of Go Summit, the Master version of AlphaGo beat Ke Jie, the number one ranked player in the world at the time, in a three-game match, after which AlphaGo was awarded professional 9-dan by the Chinese GO Association AlphaGo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlphaGoMore and more intelligent robots tell us that we are getting closer and closer to the world of science fiction with increasing AI showing up in daily lives. At present, they are equipped with merely weak deep learning ability, later they may obtain qualitative wisdom through the accumulation of quantitative changes at any time.
Satoshi Nakamoto's invention is factually a currency not for humans, but for machines. Perhaps that is the reality of Bitcoin. In the Internet age, you don’t know if your chatting partner is a dog. In the blockchain age, you don’t know if your trading partner is a machine. In one decade, when more and more AI machines participate in the production and distribution of human civilization, growing number of people will reach a consensus on the fact that human society is evolving from Carbon-based civilization to Silicon-based one. Satoshi Nakamoto, by creating Bitcoin, completely opened the door to Silicon-based Civilization for mankind.I have always been emphasizing that the creation of Bitcoin by Satoshi Nakamoto is not just a technological or financial innovation, but a wholly formatting for the old world and establishing of a thoroughly new human civilization, a true creation and rebirth. That is the beginning of mankind's evolution from atomic physics civilization to digital Bit civilization, the stirring of upgrading from Carbon-based civilization to Silicon-based one. Bitcoin will completely push mankind into the era of Machine Civilization.Bitcoin and blockchain are not directly for humans, but for AI machines. On condition that we merely think about them from the perspective of human beings, then we will never grasp their true meaning. A dog cannot truly chat with people on the Internet for the lack of shared language. But in the time of blockchain, it is possible for a machine to transact with humans because they do have a common language. Humans will live with machines in an era of symbiosis and co-prosperity.The world we often see in sci-fi movies will truly come to reality. Bitcoin is the cornerstone of human civilization’s entering a new digital civilization, and all this stems from the moment when the great Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin in 2009. In a century, when Silicon-based life forms with intelligent robots as the main body have been fully integrated into the production and distribution of human society, they will look up to Satoshi Nakamoto as the father of robots because he gave Silicon-based life forms the right to participate in social production and distribution through the creation of Bitcoin. That is the greatest significance that Bitcoin brings to human civilization, representing humans' stepping into a brand Bit Civilization. The new era of mankind will be rewritten, and human civilization will designate 2009 as the first year of the Bit Era to commemorate that we have truly entered a brand new era, and human civilization has undergone a brand-new enhancement. That is the only way for mankind to avoid doomsday.What do you think?

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Why is Bitcoin called “Bitcoin”?
|
on: August 18, 2021, 01:58:16 AM
|
On January 3, 2009, mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto created, compiled, and packaged the first source code of Bitcoin, inventing the Genesis Block with his own hands, which marked the genesis of the Bit world in its real meaning. Today, Bitcoin has become an important force influencing the world's financial and currency structure. Waves of pioneers are constantly practicing, exploring, and pushing the spiral progress of the entire encryption world. As I see it, Bitcoin is not just a technology or a currency, it represents a brand new idea and human civilization.
Like many other Bitcoin believers, from the moment the idea of Bitcoin stepped into my mind, I can't get rid of it anymore since it has become a part of my life. I will never go back to the society built by centralized legal tender because I have become a member of a new human civilization.Do you feel the same? Can you still trust the fiat world? When you breathe the fresh air, you will never be willing to go back to that muddy, bleak world. The only thing you think about is how to let the light spread quickly and render the fresh air permeate the entire time and space.
I have a question for you. Why is Bitcoin named “Bitcoin”? Have you ever thought about it? For the time being, Bitcoin is widely known, even to people who don't have it. But why is that name? In effect, it is Satoshi Nakamoto who coined the title. He released the Bitcoin white paper——Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. Why did he use that name? The answer lies in the name itself. Bitcoin, this word can be divided into two parts, one is ‘bit’ and the other is ‘coin’. We can understand the meaning of the latter simply, such as 'cash' or 'currency', which is also the currency attribute of Bitcoin. In terms of the former, 'bit' means small amount, and 'a bit' can be interpreted as 'a small amount'. Another significant explanation of it is the smallest unit of information used by computer: binary.‘Bit’ set up the foundation of the entire information computer industry. The most impressive development of human civilization in the last fifty years is based on computers and the Internet. We have established a novel Internet civilization. Bit is the cornerstone of all those civilizations.Bit, binary digit, a computer terminology, the smallest unit of information. The information contained in one unit of a binary number is one bit. For example, the binary number 0100 has 4 bits. In binary system, each 0 or 1 is a bit, which is the smallest unit of data storage as well. Eight bits is a byte. The number of CPU bits in a computer refers to the maximum that the CPU can process at a time. CPU of 32-bit computer can manage data up to 32-digit once. We are familiar with that concept, it just we may rarely associate it with Bitcoin.The basic composition and conversion of units in information technology: 1 Byte = 8 bit 1 KB= 1024 B 1 MB = 1024 KB 1 GB = 1024 MB 1 TB = 1024 GB
Technology is changing our world every second, but however advanced technology is, it is composed of the most basic units, namely, 0 and 1. Now have you figured out the origin of the name? Bitcoin is essentially not for human use, it belongs to the computer world, a currency for machines. Adopting the code language of 'machine', Bitcoin represents the evolutionary direction of a new human civilization——Digital Civilization. That is why I call this brand-new civilization created by Satoshi Nakamoto 'Bit Civilization'. Modern computer network is founded on binary, while bit is the most basic and smallest unit of information computer network. Bit weaved the entire human information network civilization and Satoshi Nakamoto is now embarking on a fresh value system on the basis of information network, which signifies the coming of an advanced civilization of mankind.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Why did Satoshi Nakamoto name the first block of Bitcoin Genesis Block?
|
on: August 17, 2021, 03:45:41 AM
|
On January 3, 2009 GMT, mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto created, compiled, and packaged the first source code of Bitcoin on a small server in Helsinki, Finland, coining by himself the first block of Bitcoin—— Genesis Block, which marked the birth of Bitcoin. Block #0 was recorded in the public ledger at 6:15 pm of server time on the day, and the mining reward was 50 Bitcoin. It was not until six days later that Block #1, the second block of Bitcoin network, was dug out. The emergence of Genesis Block represents the prelude to Bit World!The world was plagued by recession then, to commemorate the coming of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto engraved the headline of the front page of The Times of the day—— The Times 03/Jan/2009, Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks on the first block. Genesis Block is the first and the most important block in Bitcoin network, meaning beginning and origin. Over time, new blocks will continuously be added to the chain, and all subsequent blocks can be traced back to the first one. Without Genesis Block, Bitcoin must have disappeared already, let alone Bitcoin community trusted by tens of millions of people around the world and crypto field spread all over the world. The boom of Bitcoin network and community witnessed the start and end of thousands of digital currencies. One after another, industry pioneers have been practicing and exploring, encouraging the spiral development of the entire crypto world. To commemorate Satoshi Nakamoto, the first block of all cryptocurrency projects with independent public chain network will be named Genesis Block like Bitcoin did. The genesis of independent public chains echoes that of Bitcoin, they are shining together.
But, have you ever thought about why did Satoshi Nakamoto pick the name Genesis Block? Is there any other meaning here? As is known to all, Satoshi Nakamoto is a very meticulous and rigorous person, and every move of him means something. Till now, no one knows exactly who he is, where he is or why he created Bitcoin. Maybe the imprint he left can offer us some hint. He could have named each block in the form of Arabic number such as Block #0, Block #1, Block #2, Block #3, Block #X to render those blocks appear equal. But he didn't. Let's think about the original meaning of “genesis” first. In the entire human world, in the human cognitive system, there is only one who truly understands and practices its meaning——God.At the first beginning, God created heaven and earth. The earth was of emptiness and chaos. The spirit of God was on the water. God said let there be light and there was light. That is the genesis of God, giving birth to the world. In Bitcoin era, darkness was everywhere. Satoshi Nakamoto wrote down the startup code and said, "Let there be light", then light began to appear and Genesis Block was delivered. A whole new world unveiled. That is the genesis of Bitcoin!From 2009 to 2021, 12 years is just a drop in the ocean of civilization history of mankind. Stunningly, the achievement in the 12 years alone has brought about earth-shaking changes in political, economic, and financial patterns and in the whole world and they are changing faster and faster like the acceleration in Moore's Law. Most of us look at Bitcoin based on current knowledge from today's prospective. But what if from the perspective of the future? What our vision would be in 10 years, 50 years, or even 100 years? Perhaps only when that day comes, can we truly understand the original meaning of Satoshi Nakamoto's naming Block #0 as Genesis Block.Supposing that we come to the year of 2140 when 21 million Bitcoin are almost mined, looking back at 2009, we may be able to feel the sacred mission of the birth of Genesis Block: a wholly new world was created! It was a moment of inauguration, of the birth of a new universe, of nirvana and rebirth of human civilization and of the beginning of a new human civilization. I call the civilization Bit Civilization. Why is this a new beginning? Because in two to five decades, mankind will suddenly discover that they have entered a world of trust and transparency built entirely by blockchain, a brand new civilization with new system and order. There is an essential difference between new civilization and the old one.The old chronology system is no longer suitable for the development of new civilization. Therefore, mankind decided to adopt a new chronology method. I call it Bit Era System. For the time being, human civilization employs the Gregorian chronology which starts with the legendary birth year of Jesus Christ and takes this year as the boundary. The time before is called BC, and the time after, AD. For Bit Era System, 2009, the year Bitcoin was born, will be set as the boundary. Correspondingly, 2010 is the second after Bitcoin and 2008 is the first year before Bitcoin, and so on. The history of human civilization will be completely rewritten with the birth of Bitcoin. This is the biggest change that Satoshi Nakamoto's creation of Bitcoin has brought to human civilization. Satoshi Nakamoto is the Creator of Bit Civilization who pioneered and created the world. He dug out the first block of Bitcoin, which marked the genesis of Bit Civilization. That is why he chose that name.What do you think?
