Nicehash offers 1PH/s on the bitcoin chain for ~ 0.0168BTCBitcoin sees ~ 120 exahash. https://www.blockchain.com/charts/hash-rate = 120000 pentahash (?) 120000* 0.168 = ~141.120.000 $ to get 51% hashing power  (this doesn't seem that expensive.) Although they obviously don't have that much mining power for rent (I see nicehash only has ~ 10 TH), but theorethically speaking, i think such an attack could perhaps be profitable, that is if my calculations are correct.. Seems you need to remove a 0 and you get $14M /day. Not that cheap if you think about it. You either do a double spent or fork and hope othera will believe you are a billionaire  ) |

https://www.crypto51.app/If any of you are too lazy to click : $468.961 / h (would have assumed a higher number tbh) The price can be calculated in many ways. The way they do it is Using the prices NiceHash lists for different algorithms we are able to calculate how much it would cost to rent enough hashing power to match the current network hashing power for an hour But also mention that it's purely theoretical at least un BTC case. BCH is another discussion )

Fun tool! Feature request: Add, “I just don't remember when I did this shit!”
You woke up a 2year old thread to bump your new thread? Your feud with that hacker guy looks very personal...
Cool project OP |

Just for my knowledge... what is the cookie script for on that page?

Saw you mention this thread somewhere else and thought to ask here as well so it would not get lost in the noise. From what I can tell POS was presented first on bitcointalk Exhibit A: Proof of Stake (PoS) was first introduced in a paper by Sunny King and Scott Nadal in 2012 and intended to solve the problem of Bitcoin mining’s high energy consumption link: https://cointelegraph.com/news/the-history-and-evolution-of-proof-of-stakeExhibit B: I've got an idea, and I'm wondering if it's been discussed/ripped apart here yet:
I'm wondering if as bitcoins become more widely distributed, whether a transition from a proof of work based system to a proof of stake one might happen. What I mean by proof of stake is that instead of your "vote" on the accepted transaction history being weighted by the share of computing resources you bring to the network, it's weighted by the number of bitcoins you can prove you own, using your private keys.
If this is the case this QuantumMechanic guy should definitely be added on the list of "Notable people" imo, even tho this one one of his last posts here... |

That's one smart thermos right there! Anyway, yea, even if someone of the admins is the creator of bitcoin, it doesn't matter to us. But I don't know what could happen if the goverment knew this guy  Are you a FBI double agent? Too many questions... my spider sense is tingling! |

The issue boils down to one thing: they were here when it mattered!
And let's face it, editing a. csv file with 2 million lines if a bit nerve wreking for an old and reputable project like bitcointalk.
It's high time we get confortable with the idea that things will not be undone.
Also I ask you this: if you had a platform with aprox 2kk users what decisions would you have made? Of course, without knowing the future. What would you 2 years ago have done better?

Awesome initiative. Kudos to you! Might want to update link in the OP also

Apparently even CryptoTalk's campaign is going down. You can't join in with new accounts, so new people can't get paid for posting there.  They obviously couldn't handle the spam. Considering that 2 weeks ago he was asking the same question (more or less) ... I can see why ! |

I’m really interested to know what you think is the biggest problem with virtual identity ? ... so what do you think is the way to bring virtual characters close to real characters
Virtual identity would be the sum of digital footprints left by an individual (accounts, email addresses, own domains/website, browser history, shopping history etc). Not many would want to have those all linked. Hope the answer is not KYVi (Know Your Virtual identity) |

... we have an interesting idea...
Currently it is just at the idea stage or you have an MVP ? (whatever it is...) |

...
 But being serious any changes would affect every single user, not just some "merit receiving sources" that manage to earn truck loads of merit (for their well thought out posts, don't get me wrong). It's like tomorrow they changed the period for masters degrees. Not 1.5-2 years anymore. Now it's 7 ! Want to be called a "master"... well you better earn it ! ) Not really as simple as you describe it dude ! |

IMO there are some issues with the model presented So people buy at $10 per coin and are not able to sell until it reaches $100. Coins are only bought and price increases (pump) and once they get to $100 many will want to sell and price will go down (dump)... "prevent sell" must mean the coin would be traded only on your platform (not cool) There are only 5 coins over $100 (according to CMC at least) . None are stable coins. Ever wondered why ? How will you ensure the coin will have a stable value ? Mint ? Are they backed by stacks of real $100 bills ? Will you buy tokens off the market ? Coins don't just "stay stable" you know... If you have a better idea to avoid the crash, please share and we would be happy to consider it.
Your coin, your problem To me it just sounds like OneCoin 2.0 stable version ... |

Thanks for your encouragement, this is what all we need. Yes, you are right but the token sale will start only once the coin price reaches to 10.00 USD and it will be only a very limited number of token to buy per day and per user. The buyer can't sale token before it reaches to the final price (otherwise it will crash).
Buy an $10. Nobody sells until $100. This should be the Oxford Dictionary definition of a pump & dump. |

The information from the sticky thread should come from a trustworthy source and be updated.
Fair point! Will lock this thread then ! Thanks for the reply There should be exactly one Bitcoin wallet for Android named Bitcoin Wallet for Android, made by Andreas Schildback.
Good to know! Will read more about it... shamed to say not familiar with it |
