download the webpage https://www.bitaddress.org/
take your computer offline ( remove the internet wire )
load a linux live boot cd/usb.
print out a public/private key pair using that bitaddress webpage.

you've got yourself cold storage.
I also suggest you this however can't understand what it mean by linux live boot?

You can use your old pc/laptop which can function but you never connect it to internet. Just use it to generate paper address and print it in offline printer. Than you can format that old pc and never connect it to internet.

Although You need to take care of that printed paper wallet and store it in some safe place protected form water, fire and obviously no one should have access to it.

we use to make cd's that you could boot from, when you booted from this cd you'd be running a linux OS without having to install it on the HD. this was called a live boot.
these days you can do this with a USB
http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

so, even if your windows computer is full of viruses, you printed from linux so your safe.

Does it mean that our BTC are to be doubled on the altchain?

Yes,
and the cross chain TX problem thing, will be fixed.

if you simply HODL both your core coins and your BU coins, i think you'll be in the green pretty much the whole time.

but i do believe BU will initially be under valued and eventually be the winner

so i think it would make a lot of sense to allocate a slightly larger % of your coins into BU coins, if for no other reason that there will be more upside potential for BU given that BU starts off at like 5-10$

even if you think the odds are low that BU will eventually come out on top,at 5-10$ its a speculative bet you have to take.

at first till be 100BUcoins / 1Core coins
a year later its 50BUcoins / 1Core coins
a week after that its 1BU coins / 1Core coins

Is there any truth to this or is it Zerohedge up to its old games?

the truth is this has been "news" since 2013.

devs should just build the clients with a built-in highly pruned blockchain, and let that be the starting point for syncing old blocks when running that client.

nodes dont need the history from day 1 to work, all they need is a starting point they know will agree with the rest of the network.
So exactly what is this supposed to do? Centralize Bitcoin in order to avoid downloading a part of the blockchain? That's a terrible idea. If you don't have enough storage space right now, you can run a pruned node.
all it would centralize is the src from which you get this "built-in highly pruned blockchain start point". but i guess you could go a step futher and get the network to validate that this "start point" is not a lie, and does in fact accurately represent the past history. hell the network itself could make this start point available for download, instated of having the network send the blockchain in its entirety .

it means placing some trust in the client you run, but that's already the case today, and it kinda always will be...
False.
if you subscribe to the idea that you dont need to trust the code behind the client you choose to run because its been peer reviewed by many people and is known to do exactly what you'd expect it to do.
then it isn't much of a stretch to say that you dont need to trust the "built-in highly pruned blockchain start point" for the same reason.

what's going to happen to supply once they put up the great bitcoin firewall, and coins can no longer freely flow out of china?  Huh

Problems are keeping up...
https://blockchain.info/tx/785cc496c9bd7c61a0d42b278134259cb5735fc7a4807552430b74af4cce8c96
I mean is it normal for a transaction to take so long, even if the blocks are clogged or something?
And if so since this transaction is actually a payment from a hot wallet I think am a bit screwed if it
never gets confirmed.
This tx has such a low fee that it is basically treated as tx spam and deserves to never be confirmed. What wallet are you using?

That's a bit harsh to suggest that "no fee" transactions should "never" be confirmed.  Maybe sometime in the future bitcoin will evolve to such a state in which no fee transactions are not confirmed, yet at this point, that seems to be a long way into the future.

i wonder when was the last 0fee TX that was confirmed ( and not generated by the miner himself )
anyway...
1cent isn't half bad for 226 bytes...
considering 5cents for 226 bytes TX is high priority  1 cents doesn't  "deserves to never be confirmed"
