1  Local / Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) / Re: [ASK] Punya Pengalaman Dalam Cloud Mining?? Masuk Sini gan! on: December 10, 2014, 07:59:01 AM
Pernah nyoba PetaMine CryptX di Havelock Investment, awalnya mereka nawarin 40% reinvestment dipotong dari deviden byang scr otomatis nambah hashrate per sharenya. Tapi sekitar akhir Mei kemarin mereka "secara sepihak" mengubah kebijakan jadi deviden jadi 100% sehingga nggak ada reinvestment.

Kalo pribadi menurut ane cloud mining lebih menarik kalo investor punya hak suara dalam menentukan arah kebijakannya.

Hi, Lately I came across this page >> https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Hardfork_Wishlist#Major_structural_changes << and there's something I want to ask regarding this:

Switch to block hashing algorithm secure against block withholding attacks.
Will it possibly disrupt Block Erupter's algorithm?
4  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Which pool software and frontend?? on: August 19, 2012, 11:04:24 PM
AFAIK, Eligius uses eloipool written in Python 3 >> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=61731.0
BTCGuild in PoolServerJ
Slush uses it's own pool server software

I have no idea what Deepbit uses. You can check them out here >> https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Poolservers

6  Economy / Economics / Re: Can bitcoin survive? on: August 19, 2012, 03:03:39 AM
According to many earlier sources bitcoin must already be dead. They are sure it will not even last a year. In reality the my guess as to the3  biggest threats would be:

1. SHA encryption is broken. Bitcoin would be the least of our problems then.
2. A concerted, sustained international effort by governments to make bitcoin illegal.
3. A collapse of the Internet infrastructure. No network, no bitcoin.

As far as aliens or secret societies... Get back in your Mom's basement weirdo.


1. Even if SHA were broken, nobody can spend my coins. They might be able to hash faster, perhaps take over the network for a short while (it would become obvious immediately). My coins are still safe, and the community would transition to a different, unbroken hashing function. A temporary disruption of this kind, while painful in terms of delayed payments, would not be the end of Bitcoin.

2. The more people (including those involved with governments worldwide) have vested interest in Bitcoin, the less likely a concerted attack is.  Most vulnerable days are behind us, and it's only getting better. Gaddafi was a gold bug, no one has outlawed gold; they simply killed him and took his gold.

3. Yes, this would be a problem. However, try talking to people who have been through recent conflicts. Communications infrastructure is surprisingly robust, and disruptions are usually short-lived. Where there is a will, there is a way.

1. There are several level of "broken", yes at worst-case it would be double spending problem

2. At this time, Bitcoin have different adoption than Gold

3. PirateBox + MeshNet anyone? Wink

Is it just me or Internet is already a nation in itself? Grin

And Anonymous is the Army. God help us all. Cheesy

Well, if that so then Bitcoin probably is a NWO currency where Internet is the nation of Human Being in the world.  Wink
9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC and NWO on: August 19, 2012, 02:43:39 AM
No, BTC makes no sense for an NWO plan with all that decentralization and mining overhead.

They're rather gonna establish a world central bank. Digital transactions will be via the MintChip (tracking you).

If they play out a crash, the solution they'll offer will be something like Facebook credits.

Facebook credits lol. I think Bitcoin is supposed to be anarchist type currency. Grin

It's the legal tender of the Agorist nation. Wink

(which is, of course, total bull, but it does make a great digital currency for agorists)

Depends on your drive type tho, in the long term you'll extend harddisk lifetime via reduced disk seek at cost disk stress during defragmentation. Yes, it doesn't apply to SSD or other flash storage medium.
12  Economy / Securities / Re: [GLBSE] ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: August 15, 2012, 03:14:24 PM
As not all the shares allocated for private sales have sold yet but the 30.000 shares on GLBSE sold out within 4 days wouldn't it make more sense to try and sell part of those shares allocated for private sales on GLBSE ?

Keep it totally transparent so people know exactly how many shares are up for grabs (private and GLBSE)

That will also keep arbitrage in this 'pre-ipo' at a minimum

Thanks for your suggestion. We indeed have considered it. However, all current investors' choices are made on the expectation that 30,000 shares are publicly sold and the rest are for private bulk sale. We feel that it is not a good idea to change people's investment assumptions by changing our IPO policy. So we would rather keep the plan as it was, and let the market settle everything down.

1: The first post made clear that 'the ratio may be adjusted' so there could be more shares issued at GLbSE.

2: Current investors knew from the first moment that 200k shares were issued. What would be the difference for them whether the shares are sold are private or trough GLbSE?
Totally nothing, 200k shares = 200k shares..

The ONLY difference is that if the 30k shares were sold out, they could probably sell them with a big profit.
So actually, by not issuing more shares, u are supporting the people (who actually don't give a .... about the company, because they bought them to sell with profit) who are trying to rip other REALLY potential investors off..

Get together a group of interested investors and buy a block, then split up the shares accordingly.  Problem solved.  

Edit: plus you'll get the discount.

Great idea. Indeed, if they sold public share again eventually it will ends up resold at higher price by others.
13  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: raising awareness by giving away private keys on: August 14, 2012, 06:36:53 PM
This is a brilliant idea, but it could be a treasure hunt - the easy to find QR codes should draw people into something more involved. They could link to a website that provides a clue to the next location leading them closer to the bounty.
There could be a process that encourages people not only to search but also to contribute bitcoins and leave clues for others - it could expand beyond the campus and to the wider world..

OMG That is brilliant!

I started to play a game long ago, can't remember the name of it, but it was soon after the Internet started taking off. This game came from a traditional computer game maker, a riddle/treasure hunt game, but the exciting thing about it was it adding an "online experience".

There was a real world prize, maybe like $100-500K or something, and you could talk with other players online and see how far they had gotten. I never had the chance to follow through more than the entry screens of that game, but I always thought it or something like it had HUGE potential. People love things like mysteries, riddles (really tough ones!), and scavenger hunts. They also love interacting with one another online, so merging these things can exponentially increase the fun.

If something like this could be created using Bitcoin the resulting word-of-mouth (best form of advertising) viral marketing could propel Bitcoin forward by leaps and bounds.

Let me think more on this...

It reminds me of Geohashing, a similar sport to Geocaching >> http://wiki.xkcd.com/geohashing/Main_Page
Quote
Geohashing is a method for finding an effectively random location nearby and visiting it: a Spontaneous Adventure Generator. Every day, the algorithm generates a new set of coordinates for each 1°×1° latitude/longitude zone (known as a graticule) in the world. The coordinates can be anywhere — in the forest, in a city, on a mountain, or even in the middle of a lake! Everyone in a given region gets the same set of coordinates relative to their graticule.
14  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Eligius POLL: Reward system changes, and new ASIC-ready Eligius-Hu pool on: August 14, 2012, 06:12:09 PM
I personally agree to HU, but Luke-Jr please, we have a serious business here. Maybe you should make some simulation of HU based on current mining capacity, compare with RA's, forecast for future ASIC miners and show us the resulting data. I cannot say that some people are too paranoid or even xenophobic for new setup, maybe some of us don't agree because it's new or don't know the data. Thank you.
15  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Eligius Miners: [POLL] Proposed changes to Eligius Reward System on: August 04, 2012, 05:21:28 PM
Let's say we finally use CPPSBAM, inactive miners are pushed to be active again to receive their EC. Well, how we classify miners as active/inactive? If we consider only through a submitted share to classify inactive miner to be active miner, then folks we have problem when miners use this way to extend their activity period ( like a week in address' graph).

Seriously, what if the developers decided to change the block hashing algorithm from double SHA-256 to something else (WHIRLPOOL or SHA 3 maybe)? doesn't it renders ASIC useless?
