when lauda cant prove anything he just cries shill or screams "nonsensical" or ad-hom
nothing new
anyway he cant explain the maths of the graphic and instead just attacks with "shill"
i think lauda should go back to scamming people by charging them fee's to be an escrow just to recover their own funds. rather than do anything actually technical to fix issues.
yep lauda cant even be arsed to report bugs that earn him money, he prefers bugs because he can scam money out of people through it
lauda cant even answer or even realise that the BScartel he adores so much are the ones linked to the banks
ask blockstream to speak to their boss barry silbert about his brother allen
ask bloq to speak to their boss barrysilbert about his brother allen
lauda cant even explain the ram calculations and even independantly thinkk for himself why that images maths of ram usage is wrong
all this segwit drama and finger pointing of social drama and lauda cant even wade through it to see whats hidden beneath. all he does is post his empty spoonfed crap from his "friends" becuase he trusts them

We have broken major resistance points,
you wouldnt understand a resistance point even if one was to hit you like a wall funny that the timing of the drop has nothing to do with anything 2x related. the only drama for the next 3 months+ is segwit. its all just pointing fingers away from bscartel by pretending certain people are not bscartel even when they are, purely to create social distractions to make people not look at the real stuff behind the scenes try to do some learning and research away from reddit. you might actually learn something rather than repeating something. this is not school. repeating what your told to repeat and learning the truth are 2 different things |

SegWit2x is a big big mess! Never ever will I run this shitty client!
To me Garzik is a traitor like Ver, Andresen and all the other dummies from the megablocker side!
True Bitcoiners will go with the 'punks and not the corporate bodies who will make it completely worthless.
However I'm convinced the ones who are contributing to Bitcoin for more than 8 years now will have the overwhelming majority of users supporting them.Therefore I'll take advantage of the actual situation and pick up those coins left by weak hands.
dont get fooled by the social drama garzic and gavin are still part of the BScartel if you love the bscartel that i guess it makes you the dummy for hating ur own "friends" also gavin was involved BEFORE gmax and before the other bscartel. infact the github repo gmax and bscartel are using is gavins that started in august 2009 and is not a continuation from satoshi's satoshi used sourceforge only so as i said its all just social drama. need proof? http://dcg.co/portfolio/#bblockstream bloq bitpay all part of bscartel.. have a nice day |

wow
pereira4
when price goes up, silence.. when price goes down blame someone thats not blockstream...
how about instead of crying and trying to blame someone when the price drops.. start getting excited and start shouting "discount day"
i really do love seeing everyone get so dramatic over small temporary and meaningless price movements

DNS hardcode seeds is hard ...
this will clear the problem andre If you don't like the seeds, simply download the code yourself, change the seeds to whatever you like and then compile. It's that easy.  the "hard" part is you cant really change things at runtime |
|
|

It seems like this seeds enables the blockchain to reveal our identities just like how they track the illegal torrent users. Are we some kind of criminals, why are they adding crap in bitcoin ? That would not be bitcoin anymore but rather will be something like ETH. The original purpose of bitcoin was to send and receive transactions anonymously this is a huge turn off for bitcoin users as they use BTC because of it's decentralized feature. The devs or whoever controlling it behind should probably reconsider this implementation.
just worked that out?? funny how when blockstream had the DNS seeds everyone was kissing their ass.. now blockstream doesnt everyone starts having rational thoughts the only issue with not having DNS seeds is that a node would have to ping every single IP address there is, until it got a response saying a bitcoin node exists on such ip address i kinda prefered the days that the dns seed was an IRC channel rather than a cartels website |

lol awwwww blockstream employees cant own bitcoin(the network).
but what pereira4 doesnt realise is that Bloq employees are paid by.... the same people that pay blockstream employee's
so effectively
barry silbert still owns bitcoins main mechanisms.
atleast pereira4 will still get to back the same team(once he follows the money back far enough).
its semi-subdefuge because he is causing empty drama knowing that all his finger pointing is just distractions, where ultimately the same puppet master has the same control
maybe it will sort blockstream out to be more part of the community by them joining the community because from what i can see blockstream love the segwit part of segwitx2 but as soon as segwitx2 activates the segwit element, their blockstream seeds will block and abandon nodes that want the 2x part.
now blockstream have to up their game and add the x2 code to then be allowed to be dns seeds.. otherwise blockstream lose out

ok simple questions about all those who falsely believe having funds alone is meaningful
1. satoshi has ~800k coins does that mean we should stay strictly to the rules of his 0.3 implementations
2. i have a few thousand. does that automatically mean just by having coin that my opinion means more then others who have less
or..
do people care more about the content of people opinion and the context of what people thoughts on future direction have on other users.. rather than their wallet holding
....
in my view bitcoin protocol does not care who is the owner of said coins. its pseudonymous afteral. the protocol is about CODE security which is only secured by nodes, asics and pools.
bitcoin is not secured by stake.. and many people need to realise. bitcoin is not a weak PoS coin.

Can someone tell me what this coin is? Its no 780 on Coin Market Cap. Is this the BTC fork? Or someone is just wanting to cause confusion and possible scam ignorant investors?
bitcoin unlimited does not have code to activate mandatorily... it will only ever activate if there was majority consensus. meaning it becomes btc so the 'token' on the exchange is not a coin with its own nodes. its just a 'token' on an exchange, in short just a entry on an exchanges database and does not exist outside of the exchange. and should not be treated seriously. many people think of it as an unbacked gambling game. but basically its just to scam ignorant investors so exchanges can get their % cut of trade fee from people trading in this vapour token |

dont worry about lauda. he admitted last year that he hasnt even read a line of code, and also doesnt know how long it takes to sync to the network.
Incoherent statements by someone who did not read the code themselves. Ironic. lauda just to remind you bitcoin is wrote in C++ not java http://bitcoinstats.com/irc/bitcoin-dev/logs/2016/01/17#l1453062298.0"20:24 Lauda Bitcoin does not use Java right?" i believe he runs a node using amazon server and wants to cry about the cost of bandwidth (amazon subscription costs) but has no clue about computer costs, stats, utility.
Which is absolute nonsense and something which you could not possibly know. http://bitcoinstats.com/irc/bitcoin-dev/logs/2016/01/17#l1453064029.020:53 phantomcircuit Lauda, it would take ~12 days to synchronize from the wifi here at 1MB 21:04 Lauda phantomcircuit 12 days..? 21:17 Lauda That seems like quite long. 21:17 Rebroad Lauda, anyway, 12 days is not a long time for someone wanting to run a full-node... I mean, what's the rush?! 21:17 Lauda That's almost half a month.. it is long to set up one. 21:17 Rebroad Lauda, yes, but why the rush? 21:18 belcher time is money
21:18 Lauda Exactly.21:18 Rebroad belcher, running a full node doesn't make money 21:18 belcher Rebroad if you're using bitcoin instead of some other currency, presumably its valuable to you 21:18 Lauda You lose money waiting.21:18 belcher it doesnt make you "money" per se but theres still economic value in it 21:18 Rebroad Lauda, how would you lose money? 21:18 Lauda If you're paying for a VPS
21:19 Lauda 12 days of lost money.21:19 Rebroad Lauda, if you're running a full node, it'll cost you the same to run it no matter how long it takes to download the blockchain 21:19 Lauda Imagine compiling code that takes 12 days instead of 1? 21:19 Lauda No time lost? 21:20 Rebroad Lauda, belcher, I don't think you understand what motivates people to run full-nodes 21:20 Lauda ... 21:20 Lauda you're weird. 21:20 Rebroad Lauda, you've still now answered my question. Rush to do what? 21:20 Lauda Time is valuable, time should not be wasted unless necessary. 21:21 Rebroad Lauda, you could argue that running a full-node IS a waste of time... it's either a waste of time to run it, or it isn't... but running it involves downoading the blockchain.. it's part and parcel of running a full-node 21:22 Lauda I wouldn't bother setting up a node that takes 12 days to set up.
21:22 Lauda No way.21:23 Lauda Imagine a situation where user has no full node, they need it for reason X to use Y 21:23 Lauda so wait 12 days before using it? he tries hard to sound like an expert who cough gets paid to consult cough. yet loves penny grabbing his sig campaign schemes and charging people for things they can do themselves.
If anyone is an expert here, it ain't you, nor the duo of j-degenerates. lauda, go spend more time reading reference material and less time on reddit propoganda scripts. its proven time and time again that you failed the basics.. even now you cant explain the tier network, upstream filters, and why segwit keypair utility is not possible to test on mainnet now, even when everything is supposedly (in your eyes) backward compatible.. reminder: i gave you a hint april 2016
anyway. getting back on point of the topic: as for the graphic of statistics lauda has pasted several times.. does he even know maths to actually check before pasting EG blocks 0.5mb.....graphic shows 6.2gb daily traffic.............. (facepalm) .......... hint: there are only 144 blocks a day you dont even need a calculator to do the maths (hint: number in graphic is out by 86 multiples) and dont even gt me started on the facepalming of ram in that graphic |

he takes things out of context alot because of all the reddit scripts he gets spoonfed
he tries hard to sound like an expert who cough gets paid to consult cough. yet loves penny grabbing his sig campaign schemes and charging people for things they can do themselves.
i feel sorry for him as he seems to have wasted the last few years not learning the real utility of bitcoin and is just penny grabbing to stay afloat
i tried helping him but then he just cries "walls of text".. so you cant teach an old cat new tricks

Merchant acceptance of Bitcoin is the "other thing" that has to happen before BTC becomes big. We of course need more interest from the public, and we need more merchants to accept it.
One thing that would certainly help is if they arrive at a sensible agreement re BTC's scaling problems. They solve that, and the public (and merchants) will likely be more interested in taking a look.
Falcon Private Bank (of Switzerland) has just announced that they will offer BTC to their customers, a nice little plus today.
IMO, the next few weeks are important to get things done right.
I personally think it is the other way around, once people have bitcoin and are willing to use it, then merchants will accept bitcoin for the simple reason they do not want to be left out of the action, think of this in the same way as credit cards, at first no one accepted them and now is very rare to find a store that does not accept credit cards. But as stated in the article, merchants doesn't feel the pressure to accept payment via bitcoin because it's function as a currency is being overshadowed by its appreciating value. So people tend to just hold and and let their money grow instead of looking for ways on how and where to spend their bitcoins. well the tx fee war (not bitcoin price) is the real killer. |

Stats from my node :
- limited to 25 connexions (working days)
- 3Gb per day (upload blocks to others in sync. job)
- Less than 1Gb per day if not (week-end, for example ... fall to 15-18 connexions)
- core 2 duo 2,9GHz (less than 15% of CPU) + 2Gb RAM
- full node (260Gb partition allowed)
- 7 years old machine (780 USD price, same machine now = 480 USD)
That's why i want SegWit and not a Block increase.
Block increase is an idiotic solution with the developper brain possibilities.
do you even know segwit.. i think you need to look at the empty promises vs realistic scenarios and see your hyping up something that offers very little |

Nope, anyone who owns Bitcoin is already a Bitcoin user. Period. It doesn't matter if you run a full node, mine or just hodl, what really matters is the market, people will judge what chain is worthy, and miners will have to mine it if they want to operate in profit. So, if August 1st will result in a split, users will decide what chain is the real Bitcoin, not some privileged miners. What you are proposing here is just increase of centralization, and the current situation is already not very good.
having coin on a privkey and thats it.. is meaningless.. no matter what the vote is your always going to have 'coin' having coin makes no difference to the network structure direction or security. it definitely doesnt make you as important as being a miner, pool, economic or active node. EG if there was a split. even satoshi who has not been around for 7 years will have 'coin' on both sides |

lol
hv_ you are mostly on the correct lines. but lets clarify things for those stuck in the past
1.
miners (ASICS) DO NOT CONTAIN A HARD DRIVE(that ended in circa 2013) nor do the see the blockchain. all they do is receive a block hash plus some very minimal data, to create the solved block hash.
they do not form blocks, do not validate transaction and do not collate transactions into blocks.. a miner just hashes a bit of blockheader data in simple terms.
2.
a POOL does the previous block validation, transaction validation, collate tx's for current block creation. but a pool does not directly create the hash of the block.. thats what miners(asics) do
3.
economic nodes are active nodes, but where the person running it has a economic part of the network by running a business/service/exchange that adds utility to bitcoin for users
4.
active users just run nodes that validate and relay blocks, validate and relay transactions (think of them like torrent seeds)
5.
users are mainly anyone with funds, whether they use any kind of wallet available and usually just leach off the network by not actively being part of the network security symbiotic relationship of the above 4 parts (these are prunned/outofdate/lite/no witness/cludgy/spv node users)
so if you want to be a fully vested and involved user, be part of all 5 elements of the symbiotic relationship (well atleast 1,3,4,5)

I have no idea of my bandwidth (don't check at all) as i have optic fibre in UK and not some crappy telephone copper wire that other internet services provides. Mine has no cap at all, unlike other internet services. I download all my favourite TV programs as i don't have 18 to 20 minutes per hour to waste on watching adverts. My network traffic on my wallet shows the usual download of new blocks but sending out more, roughly 1gb daily. I have the usual 8 outbound and on average 5 inbound (tends to fluctuate as my wallet auto banned some inbound connections for some reason)
Based on my experience, i can not fathom why others are complaining.
well lets take copper wire ADSL that the UK averaged a DECADE ago 0.5mb upload(2mb down) 0.5mbit/s = 5.4 GByte daily UP 2mbit/s = 21.6 GByte daily down because of bits to bytes and then 1second to 24hours.. easy maths is to take whatever mbit speed you have and multiply it by 10800 to get the mbyte per day (x / 8 * 60 * 60 * 24)=10800 thats mbytes per day.. or more simply multiply your xmbit per sec by 10.8 to get gbytes per day... so say you had 1mb up on fibre 10.8gbyte of data can be sent from your pc per day |

Can someone explain to me why I should avoid creating my own coin and use bitcoin for my projects? Being a software vendor we want to give people a newly created coin for buying our software in hopes of creating value in that coin. Thoughts?
unless your a brand with many platforms / games/ software packages that can be interconnected via a singular currency unless there is a purpose / NEED to use a coin that fiat or bitcoin cannot handle. then there is no point. EG imagine walking into a store and being told if you want to buy microsoft office you need to first buy MS coin. most people will think WTF and just walk out the store. however if the store had 1000 software packages then you could offer allowing people to buy one of those packages using coin due to some discount it may offer or because it automates registration of the software licence or some other advantage.. then people would happily buy the coin because it has more than just a one time use |

been tried and dumped
seems people dont research and are instead just trying to grab any empty excuse for an ICO which eventually wont even bother making an end product because they finally realise the issues of past attempts
reporting this to be thrown in the altcoin section along with the other altcoin failures

It is of utmost importance to keep the cost of running nodes as low as possible.
says the guy that thinks someone paying 40 hours minimum wage labour for 1 tx is 'normal' and 'bitcoin is running fine', 'just pay appropriate fee' and 'just pay more' now to wake you up: cost of using bitcoin (tx fee) is more of a curse than running a node cost |
