If the Bcash centralised mining corporation wont come to my rescue, who will come to my rescue?

Who's gonna save me?

Bcash - bringing back bailouts because ... well just because, so get the fuck outta here if you can't afford to run a full node.

So far, 2 centralised mining emergency forks and counting ... it's really the reaallllly real original bitcoin, read the write paper.

TURA already did call a bottom price.  When we were having this discussion months ago when the price was still high, I said the price would probably level out at something like $4200-4400 after it worked out all of it's rises and falls. TURA said something like "$3k and that's being generous", while also claiming it might dump all the way to $1k.  Those predictions are obviously still on the table because shitcoin is still doing it's series of dead cat bounces after the $20k pump and dump.

I’ve been away for five days. I see we have gone from $9100 to $9400 which is nice.  Also about 45 pages to read.

It is immoral.  I've posted in this thread numerous times before that the basis of human trade is barter, and the further you abstract away from barter, the bigger a scam it is.  Now, humans utilize specialization in labor, so a medium to facilitate trade that reduces friction of barter might be necessary (or maybe not necessary at all, just convenient), so you might need to abstract one step away from barter.  It just so happens that the exchange of physical commodity currency, whether it's wood, grains, physical silver, oil, etc, just so happens to be the closest thing to barter without actually being barter - the lesser of all evils.

If I try and exchange something like grains or silver with you, I'm clearly not trying to swindle you because these items have intrinsic value for humans.  It's virtually the same as me exchanging some bread for one of your cows, just slightly more streamlined and convenient.  However, the second I try and initiate a trade with you using an item that has NO INTRINSIC VALUE WHATSOEVER, whether it's US dollars or bitcoins, it would make me party to a scam, even if I did not create the scam myself.

It does not matter if you're able to dump the dollars or bitcoins before they go to zero, rendering our trade amiable in circumstance, you are STILL party to a game of hot potato where you're trying to leave someone else holding the bag on a valueless object somewhere down the line, making YOU a scammer yourself, even if done in a highly obfuscated manner.

By what metric? Not interested in having that debate, but it needs to be backed up by something.

Regardless of that, if the tech were reversed we would be talking about how they overly complicated things. Humans feel first and then rationalize. Especially in this sort of tribal spat.

Maybe. Personally, I just shrug it off. It is yet another irrelevancy meant to divert from the substance of dialogue. By calling it Core, I wasn't meaning to denigrate BTC. I erred. Sorry.

Though cAPSLOCK is still an obnoxious fuck.


If I do, can I expect that others will refrain from calling BCH BCash?

Yeah - that's what I thought.

Another day, another representative of the Jew World Order trying to disarm the population while flooding them with rapefugees that want to murder them (The Kalergi Plan):

Bigger blocks is a good thing. The problem is that they are being deceptive cunts. If we had chosen big blocks and they had chosen segwit, we would still think the same thing about them, and for the same reason. And be applauding ourselves for making the correct choice.

It's the people, not the tech.

Spoofing and such is over-diagnosed here.

What is a goyim?

Completely off the record and with no proof, what are your holdings? Just as a ballpark figure.

It's shit like this that keeps me up at night.

Cold sweats and all.

How the fuck can I ever know my Bitcorns are truly secure running on Intel ?

I get nervous every time I need to type in my decryption key to send a payment.

Terrifying.

What in the actual fuck is your problem ?

If the solution to global warming was "oh shit, looks like we'll need to shut down governments and implement anarcho-capitalism to save the planet"...then I might be more inclined to believe the scientists that are paid by the government.

When the solution to global warming (science funded by governments) is "we need to give more power to governments" makes a fella go...hmmm....

Does anyone know what the current status of Confidential Transactions is?

Show me the way to the next silver bar
