Can I stay 16.11 until it gets stable? Ah, thanks. Fixed in v15 I think it's better to wait till Evan announce next update 16.15 is not on github yetv0.10.16.15 is available! - Fixed dsee timestamp drift (thx UdjinM6) - 90%+ reduction in collateral charges, should happen every 20+ mixes. - Changed ping time to 5m (would have to have 14 bad propagation events to fall off the list) https://github.com/darkcoin/darkcoin* In the process of compiling it This is why open source is so important. UdjinM6 has been making great contributions by bug hunting and proposing alternative solutions to issues. This coin is amazing! Evan is doing really awesome things but even he needs some help sometimes. There was A LOT of improvements implemented by him in these few days (you can see for yourself - huge commits there https://github.com/darkcoin/darkcoin ), not surprising he missed few bugs. Needless to say he was in hurry to fix discovered privacy issue as fast as possible. Now let's see if Darksend finally works as it should and move further. Can't wait to test InstantX  EDIT: Btw, don't forget to "star" the repo on github (and "watch" if you'd like) This will help us to gain more score https://www.coingecko.com/enWhy does every single release is bugged while DRK is based on Bitcoin code that work ? |

This is strange. I bought a mbank card long ago and I'm still able to withdraw.
The card never had more than 450€ though.
Also I filled fake informations on the mbank account website.
Would it be possible that the card get blocked depending on the amount you top-up ?
Would it be possible that the card get blocked depending on the amount you withdraw ?
Would it be possible that filling crap infos on the mbank account help not getting blocked ?
Anyone else still able to use the card ?

Is VISA MB or VISA WK from mbank?
I guess VISA MB, but in the first post is mentioned that VISA WK has problems!?
VISA WK used to be the only one that could be blocked. Now there is a massive blocking of VISA MB because some people abused the system. I recently ordered about 20 VISA MB cards and I still haven't used one of them because I don't want to have my money blocked. I'll wait for mBank to stop blocking arbitrary. mateo, are the VISA MB PLN getting blocked too or just the VISA MB EUR ? |

While I am half asleep, I hear some gun shooting outside.
Later someone knock on the door.
"Police! Open the door!"
Don't remember where the fuck am I. This must be a joke.
Find my way to the door and open it.
This is really a cop what-the-fuck.jpg
Suddenly remember that this place is used by a dealer I know to store big amount of drugs :
Weed, Ketamine, Cocaine MDMA, Valium, Opium, Heroin, ...
...and that must explain why I don't remember what happened in the last 24 hours.
I'm staring at the cop like a zombie.
"Did you hear something ?" he say.
I can't fucking move or say anything.
He repeat "Did you hear something ?"
My brain is just not working.
He is get angry.
I notice that there is an obvious smell of weed in the air.
We look at each other in the eyes for what seems to be an eternity.
I finally say "Nope"
He leaves without saying anything.

We are talking about p2p. You don't have to sell something in a p2p economy. You can share it. My system is sharing money. p2p economy is a meta-capitalistic model.
Well I get it but why do you need a payment system then ? If you are sending a money that you cannot keep then why do you pay at all ? |

Im not trolling. You forget to mention DEMOCRACY! Dont you like democracy?
Democracy is not an economic system. It is a politic ideal. In fact it doesn't exist because it is too easy to corrupt in any system. This ideal existed once for few years in Athens but it has been corrupted and we never got close to it since. Today we use the term Democracy instead of Plutocracy (the actual system). You are wrong. p2p has political and economic impact. It is against capitalism. Think about the millions of music and movies downloads. Anarchy is a system without the need of a central authority. Network resources can be anything: software, video files, audio files, images, e-books and of course COINS!!! Bitcoins are DATA. And like any other data can be shared equally through the network. Bitcoin IS NOT 100% P2P!!! Only some functions are p2p. Not all functions.
Yes p2p has indeed political and economic impact but we cannot say that it is an economic system in itself because it can fit in different system. It is flexible. Bitcoin is a lot of things and it is easy to get confused. It is an idea, an invention, a p2p network, a payment system and to finish, a monetary unit. It is all these things at the same time and you cannot take just one of them to define Bitcoin. |

To me early adopters = got in before GPUs and ASICs. Mid = Got in during GPU era. Late = Got in after asics came out and dominated mining.
lol, so in 5 years you'll be a late late late late late late adopter ? In 20 years you'll be a late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late late adopter ? Everyone is an early adopter right now and for some time. That's it. |

No it is not p2p. You cannot download a coin like an mp3 file. There is no file sharing.
Yes good, you noticed. Bitcoin is not a file sharing network, it is a payment system. I can send a Bitcoin to you and you can send a Bitcoin to me. We have equal rights in the Bitcoin payment system : we can both pay and receive a payment. This is p2p. With VISA or MasterCard : you have to pay for a terminal, pay a yearly subscription and fees to receive a payment. The sender and the receiver do not have equal rights, this is not p2p. |

In a real p2p coin system everyone should have one share-coin each time he is online.
Not in a Proof-of-Work system. The people that mine the more, get more coins but it is still a p2p network. If you can share a coin through the network like an mp3 file then why you mine it? Mining is a stupid procedure. It is waste of time, money and energy.
Don't avoid the subject, you were wrong, Bitcoin is p2p. I agree, it is a waste of energy when we have Proof-of-Stake but this is an other topic. |

b]All nodes have equal rights[/b]. In the bitcoin network computers do not share their resources (coins) equivalents and nodes do not have equal rights between them.
They have equal rights but not equal power (hashing). So they dont have equal rights. So the system is not p2p. No it is 2 different things : - A right is what you are allowed to do or not on the protocol. Everyone is a "peer" on the network, every peer is allowed to do the same things as other peers. - A hashing power is how much you contribute to the network. Every peer is unique because it is impossible to have the exact same hardware and even if it is the same hardware, the connection and bandwidth will never be the same depending on the location. Compare with P2P downloading : everyone can upload an download content but everyone have a different computer and Internet connection, yet it is peer-to-peer. Yes but in a real p2p network the content is the same in all computers. Bitcoin breaks the p2p rules. The content of the p2p have nothing to do with the network rights or peers. Imagine if all the content of the torrent network (that is a real p2p) was a single mp3 file because all peers would have the same content. Absurd. All peers must have a different content. There is no universal p2p rules. Each p2p network has it own set of rules. Each peer is different inside a p2p network. Bitcoin is a real p2p decentralised network. |
