Btw, for how long do you want me to keep it like that to receive my money? (i don't plan on changing it soon, i'm asking just in case for some reason later on i feel like doing somthing else with my personal text that would require me to remove the firstbits)

I wanna see where this is going

Miners are the decentralized authority that enforce the rules for transactions, right? That's why i thought it would be them that would control the throttle (or should i call it the brake?) for small transactions
|
|
|
How about a giant snakey that gobbles up computers to get longer, with lots of nerds riding it?
|
|
|
I was thinking more somthing along the lines of the difficulty being a setting miners decide on. Somthing like (1/Amount) * X, with X being set by miners themselves (i'm not sure on the exact formula, i just wrote it like that to try to make what i mean clear)
|
|

The idea with having the difficulty be based not only on the smallness of the amount but also on a factor determined by miners is to be prepared for the moment in the future when common values get closer to 1 Satoshi, so even then transactions that aren't spammy in nature would still have little to no difficulty getting thru.

Btw, if anyone wants to use multiple lines, you can try inserting a few " " (that's U+2003) wherever you want a new line (obviously you should test after setting your text to see if it really gets linewrapped)
Other spaces work too, but i think that one is the biggest (please correct me if i'm wrong)

Someone should launch a pool that directs a percentage of the fees towards carbon credits...

What if instead of enforcing a fixed transaction fee for transfers bellow a certain amount, the system would require transaction requests to be signed with a proof of work, with difficulty inversely proportional to the transaction size by a factor decided by miners; any transaction requests signed with less difficulty than miners expect gets ignored?
Ideally there would be a way for miners to report to the network the difficulty factor they demand for signing transactions, so the client can calculate a consensus as well as know the min and maximum that has a chance of being accepted.

If you're just shooting the people coming to attack you, you're not a terrorist; but if you boobytrap their mattresses with fragmentation grenade, poison their food supply with disease, surround their houses with stakes impaling their pets etc then you are.

I must admit i skipped large chunks of the discussion after a while scrolling down; but i think i got most of it.
Tell me if you, from both sides, think this would be an acceptable compromise:
The politics and other subforums dealing with more controversial topics not directly related to Bitcoin are kept as part of the forum, but mostly just serverside, when users try to access those sections they are directed to another domain, with a disclaimer stating somthing along the lines of "even though the moderators and participants might be the same these sections are not part of the official Bitcoin forum".
And of course, in both the original forum and in the non-official sections there would be some disclaimer like on chatrooms, games with user created content, chat etc and other things like that, somthing along the lines of "The ideas expressed by users in here does not necessarily reflect The Bitcoin Foundation's position - viewer discretion advised" (i can't remember the exact wording i was going got, but is somthing kinda like that)

In the end the two things can kinda overlap though, soldiers can be terrorists if they use terror techniques, and terrorists can be soldiers depending on their associations and the hierarchy of their groups, their roles in the attacks etc.

TL;DR: Things could be much worse, but there is still lots of room for improvement

And i am Santa Fucking Claus. Ho Ho Ho Bitches!!!

Even though both conditions are less than ideal, having only those two choices, i much rather have a chance of forming an opinion on the reasons i'm being sent to fight or at the very least know i'm not being told the whole truth than being tricked into fighting with lies.

When i saw the thread's title i thought this was gonna be about a computerless version of Bitcoin...
