That's not the point. The point is it's extremely difficult (pretty much impossible) to go backwards once you perform a hash function. Yes you can do the reverse but it might take you 2 million years...

Extremely difficult only for you. The enemy developed the cipher they know better. You are applying the wrong algorithm.
Okay. It's possible to turn a 64 character digest into a five paragraph book report. You win. Bitcoin is evil. Now go to the pgp forum and tell everyone that they are not safe. After that go to the minecraft forum because notch is now a servant of the devil. Also, the five dollar bills in your wallet have cameras too small to be seen by an electron microscope that watch you constantly.

I was thinking the same, not very original lol...

At least his secret is significantly cheaper.  Wink
This topic has the goals. Make fun of the original, make my change address's balance a significantly cool factor (0.01010101) and make known a very amazing and maddening secret.

@theTruth

Tell me.

Just how does a decentralized currency that cannot be controlled by a central authority serve the interests of of a centralized world government?

Bitcoin does pretty much the opposite of what any self respecting one-world totalitatrian government would want.

Back doors in the code, only top secret services know about and the average code monkey can never figure out.

Or

It is used as a pump and dump tool by big banks who are experimenting with cryptography based currencies.
Bitcoin is open source. The code has been reviewed and even studied countless times.
Also, if banks would never want Bitcoin-like technology to exist. Ever.

Oh i didn't know he was on these forums, did he?

lol. he created these forums bro. and registered bitcoin.org

Oh...i'm around bitcoin for 3+ years already but didn't know this.
Now i feel kinda stupid, thanks for info thought.
Don't feel stupid, it isn't too well known.

Because their secret technology is 50-100 years ahead of any public perception of technology. They are no fools, they have the algorithms to decrypt any public cryptography cipher on which bitcoin is based. They also now have very powerful supercomputers so even if you manage to develop your own cipher they will crack it in seconds.
Cracking a cipher isn't doable since the digest is smaller than the input, significantly. The only way to do it is by trying every possible keypair. There are 2^256 possible keypairs.
No the concern is still valid.

Not really.  Imagine you built a perfect computer; forget about GHash and Megaherts.  You built a computer which used the absolute minimum amount of energy theoretically possible to record a change in a single bit (1 to 0 or 0 to 1).  We are talking about the limits of thermodynamics; nothing more efficient is even possible.  Now imagine you used most of the natural resources in our star system to construct a dyson sphere and covered the entire surface of this sphere with a single star system sized super computer.  Now imagine you could keep this supercomputer cooled at roughly absolute zero and could do so without expending any additional energy.

If you had that and captured (with no inefficiency or loss) the entire energy output of our star (not just in a day or week but continually until it burned out) you couldn't COUNT to 2^256 before you ran out of energy.   Keep in mind this is simply counting.  Just counting, not hashing, not comparing, not performing lookups just counting 1 .. 2 .. 3 .. .... 2^256-1.

This program couldn't finish even using all the energy in our star system
Code:
Int256 i = 0;

while (i < Int256.Max)
{
    i++
}
Print("Congrats we counted to 2^256")


Or put another way:

Quote
These numbers have nothing to do with the technology of the devices; they are the maximums that thermodynamics will allow. And they strongly imply that brute-force attacks against 256-bit keys will be infeasible until computers are built from something other than matter and occupy something other than space.

This is a good bad poem.

The rhyme will hit hard.

Bitcoin only.

Apparently we aren't allowed to demonstrate agreement with an opinion or add emphasis to a fact with a simple "+1".  I've recently had my "+1" posts removed.  Therefore, I'm typing out this message to indicate that I believe the quoted information needs extra emphasis to avoid being unnoticed in the rest of the chatter in this discussion. I may (or may not) also have added bold or underline tags to the text in the quote above to further emphasize the parts that I think are important to understand or be aware of.

To me, the only thing that could destroy Bitcoin is if satoshi came back and still had all his, the media would destroy us. I believe satoshi is here but made the right decision.
I never thought about it this way. Don't come back yet satoshi! Wink
