It actually turns out that we can't have decentralization of crypto-currency without a shrinking money supply.

You can always er on the side of inflation and use proof of burn instead, or you can go the route of separating the monetary unit and consensus unit into two different tokens.  If your consensus token is a separate token from the monetary unit, you just give the consensus token inflation but also burn them, while your actual monetary unit isn't experiencing any of the associated inflation or deflation.

There was my idea for doing this, which is basically combining PoW open entropy consensus with DPoS scaling:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1550027.0

The devil is in the details and my presumption is you are not down in the details sufficiently to make these sort of statements. You don't even know that DPoS is Byzantine agreement. This is an example of the theoretical underpinnings that my whitepaper explains (which had not been analyzed any where before afaik).

At the moment, my mind is not in details. I am trying to survive the horrendous nausea that accompanies these toxic anti-TB meds. So I can't analyze right now.

Highly recommended (Michael Pettis and I have exchanged communications in the past):

Into the hornet's nest we go:

http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article57662.html
http://www.forbes.com/sites/realspin/2017/01/20/as-trump-assesses-china-start-with-facts-not-theory/

It is inevitable that Asia rises because of demographics. But we could possibly see an economic correction first in Asia between now and 2020.

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/politics/deep-state-told-obama-to-prevent-trump-from-ending-cold-war-with-russia/

So that concurs with that article from Nadeem Walayat (marketoracle). The next move is to drive a wedge between Russia and China.

Asia is headed into a hornet's nest. Also this mass migration of labor within Asia and Middle East of all these people carrying TB and other strange infections, it is very ripe for a mutation launching a pandemic. Remember Armstrong's model says a pandemic is due 2019 or so. In the plane, so many people were coughing. I read the worst outbreak of bird flu had hit somewhere in Asia during my trip.

Asia is still basically a slavery (slave labor) and racism model. CoinCube, I am sorry but slavery and racism is very much alive today.

(Isn't it amazing how I seem to write about something so often right before Armstrong does. Makes me wonder if he reads me)

For example, Singapore would not exist without all the (black!) Indians working there as laborers (they pop out of manholes, out of the ceiling in the mall, operating heavy equipment, etc) for the white Chinese. Ditto Dubai, Brunei. Etc..

The Chinese hate to be brown. There is a Chinese blogger at Steemit who blogged about that in great detail. They hate the sun.

In Singapore, there is more tolerance for the concept of rich brown people, because of the indigenous Malaysians. But still I think the Chinese do not themselves want to be brown.

You might be interested to know that The Left has been going NUTZ the past few days (yeah, even worse than before).  The profanity-laden "Million Woman March" (featuring well known intellectual Madonna) and the profanity-laden "lady" getting kicked off the Baltimore - Seattle flight are just two of the best examples.  The MainStream Media is shilling as usual.

Were it not for the various issues you are dealing with over there I would advise you to stay...   Wink

Actually I did find time to watch that Ashley Judd tirade yesterday and my reaction is please stop giving your money to these people.

Break up the USA already and let the socialists tax each other to death.

But the problem is the breakup is going to be a long arduous process over decades.

So that is why once I have the funds, I will renounce my USA citizenship. I will not fund that politics.

The problem with returning to the USA is that although Trump will attempt to lower taxes, it won't stick. TPTB brought Trump into office so they can crash the global economy and blame it on him. And to pivot towards Russia to drive a desperate China into war in Asia and worsen the global crisis. That way the Marxists will come back with a vengeance in 2020.

Get out while you still can. By 2020, they won't allow you to renounce any more. You will be a permanent slave to the Marxists.

I am getting out. But I am not going to stay here in Asia either.

OROBTC, you may end up waiting too long to make your move.

I have no desire to keep my USA citizenship. I feel no allegiance whatsoever to what the USA has become with these foul mouthed women who don't understand economics.

TPTB are using Trump for many goals. Another of those goals is to placate the conservatives to keep them from actually moving towards breakup or any meaningful action too soon. Rothschilds installed Trump via his control over Wikileaks. He is using his pawn Soros to them drive the reactionary Marxism. It is so obvious the actions of the TPTB. Kissinger is advising Trump on Russia. TPTB are scripting this all.

www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-22/ex-wsj-reporter-finds-soros-has-ties-more-50-partners-women’s-march-washington

The feminist socialists in the USA (include my mother) are going to stick to their philosophies to their graves.

We call it "Trump Derangement Syndrome" (aka foaming at the mouth)...

* * *

Re diseases, I just finished a book, where at the end author Douglas Preston tells of his woes being treated for Leishmaniasis that he got from sand-fly bites in Honduras.  Bad shit.

The book is The Lost City of the Monkey God.  Preston is co-author with Lincoln Child of the "Pendergast series" of mysteries I once mentioned to you, iamnotback.  Highly recommended.

Leishmaniasis and other tropical diseases will likely spread in an ugly way with increased migration, and it looks like Asia is not immune.

* * *

Ashley Judd and Madonna really make me proud to be an American.       Not...

I'd rather deal with the rigors of TB than be like Madonna or Ashley Judd.  Ugh!

After writing the above, I read this:

This is the gender confrontation of the 1960s all over again. The real women activists from the Sixties are all dying alone. Their confrontation with men has been so nasty, who would want to be in such a position.

The idiot Marxist from the global warming thread comes over here to try his luck at putting his foot in his mouth some more...

80% of the people in the Philippines have Tuberculosis which is a very serious illness spread by coughing. You will catch this. I did. You will then need 6 months of medicines and you will never be guaranteed to be cured. You can relapse later in life.

Incidence of Tuberculosis in Philippines is 322 per 100,000 or 0.3% according to the World Bank.

http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SH.TBS.INCD?name_desc=true

Those are active symptomatic TB disease admitted to a hospital for treatment on an annual basis.

It appears to be difficult to get the LTBI rate online, probably because the government does not warn to alarm you idiots about how bad the problem really is. But the doctors have all told me the rate of LTBI is 70 - 80%.

The incidence of latent TB infection is 70 - 80%. Here is one resource that documents the infection rate is 8 to 12 times higher than the smear positive incidence rate:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18235886

Even amongst healthcare workers in the Philippines the LTBI (latent TB) rate was measured at 27%:

http://www.ejbronchology.eg.net/article.asp?issn=1687-8426;year=2015;volume=9;issue=2;spage=183;epage=187;aulast=Abdelghaffar

The following resource says 2.33 billion people have LTBI:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4024230/

Here is a 46% LTBI incidence in a village in China:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4440671/

And healthy people usually don't get tuberculosis from coughing. If that was the case, then the American authorities might have put up a health warning on the travel advisories.

STFU idiot:

When people with TB in their lungs or throat cough, laugh, sneeze, sing, or even talk, the germs that cause TB may be spread into the air. If another person breathes in these germs there is a chance that they will become infected.

I do not recall ever commenting on racism. Slavery is indeed gone if we define slavery as the legal and socially acceptable practice of reducing one individual to the status of another individual's property.

If you want to redefine slavery as the condition of not being free then of course "slavery" will never be gone. Approaching freedom is a asymptote not an absolute.

SJW's semantic obfuscations aside, slave labor is socially acceptable and legal in Asia. The Chinese autocrats used it to undercut USA wages.

I'm calling bullshit on Marxist social justice moralizing.

Where slave labor is economically competitive, nature provides it. All this posturing about the power of man to be more noble, is social justice bullshit. The social justice warriors annoy me so much with their holier than thou lies.

Nature is competitive.

Being in touch with reality is the most rational. These moralists who go off into bullshit which is not reality are very dangerous.

I’m one of those spooky evil alt-right supporters the media keeps harping on about – historically speaking, countries with a preponderance of whites or Asians are successful, while countries that don’t possess those demographic groups are unsuccessful. Demography is destiny. When I realized that the Left is trying to en masse import poorly educated minorities to act as voter ‘shock troops’ against conservative whites, I really flipped. Not to mention the intergenerational albatross they’re going to place on the American taxpayer, and the social cost they’re going to inflict in terms of a divided culture and lower national IQ (Jason Richwine from Harvard had a good paper on this – it even got him fired by an SJW lynch mob).

I grew up in a very white area of the country and remember there being high levels of social trust, low crime, and a general esprit de corps and happiness in the community. You could leave your door unlocked and be reasonably certain that nobody could come and steal your belongings. I’ve since lived in a lot of different places, and can say with reasonable certainty that the more diverse an area is, the less people trust each other/are engaged in civic life. Robert Putnam (also Harvard) has some great research on this, which he always presents with about 10 minutes of handwringing about the importance of egalitarian values to satisfy the anxieties of his presumably liberal audience.

The left has biology on its side:

America is becoming a low IQ, low future orientation country by genetic displacement.

The premise of the article is false. The Democrats are still in power and they are still winning. All the demographic trends are against the Republicans and in favour of the Democrats. Being the Anti-White Party still becomes more powerful each cycle. Trump is a blip caused by more American whites realising that they are facing an Anti-White Party, leading to consolidation of the white vote, but the trend is still toward the total white vote, and total historical Republican demographic vote, becoming a strict minority in the United States in the very near future.

The Democrats will need to rethink their strategy if Trump actually reverses dysgenic immigration and dysgenic fertility in the United States in a way that seems like it cannot be overturned in 2-3 terms. That is very unlikely to happen. What is more likely is that Trump will delay the US becoming a one party state by 10-20 years (this will look like Jeb Bush becoming the extreme right of the Republicans, rather than a literal one party state; there is always space for two figureheads saying the same thing).

The story here is the geographical shift that has gone on. I agree that the Democrats and Clinton totally screwed up by not addressing the needs or concerns of the counties outside of University town and Urban area. Let poise this What If.

Suppose the agendas of the Urban Areas and Universities continue to diverge from Rural America. What happens when their population continues to increase and now we are facing popular votes difference of more than 3 million.

I am well aware that the founding fathers stacked the deck so to speak to make sure that Urban areas don’t dominate the political discourse. But at there is a point where the system has to give way to the will of the majority.

You’re underestimating just how flat out evil the now dominant Progressive wing of the Democratic Party has become. Reports of increased suicides and lowered life expectancy in “fly over” country brings about the clinking of glasses and cheers at any DNC social.

The hollowing out of the middle class as you call it isn’t bad or ignorant policy on their part- it’s the *intended* result, and they thought demographic trends would protect them from the consequences. This is a government that is *actively* hostile to a major demographic, not careless. They want me and mine dead, and as far as many of us are concerned, we’re already in a civil cold war- have been for some years now. If they somehow succeed in subverting the electoral vote, the war will turn hot.

This is not paranoia. It’s all out there if you doubt me. They’ve been quite open about it for a good while now if you know where to look.

On a war breaking up the USA:

http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=7268#comment-1787561

And the whole civil war thing. I hope the blue states understand that the anger they saw election night was just the tip of the iceberg. There are millions of people who would love for a hot war to erupt. Nothing would ensure the constitution more than a hot war that would allow these people to cull the socialists out of the gene pool. And no way do we allow you to take all the ports on the west coast without a fight. So we could split peacefully, but only if we got say San Diego and the republican counties that grow a lot of your food to boot.

Trump is our weapon against the party. The democrats are the inner party, the cuckservatives are part of the outer party. Push comes to shove, we are going to kill them all.

Elections are a way of not having civil wars. Ideally the election result should be indicative of who would win a civil war, so you can get to the outcome a civil war would produce without all the killing and destruction. If you allow women and blacks and people without property etc to vote, then the election result is likely to fail to reflect the likely outcome of a civil war. If women and people without property get too grabby, a civil war then is incentivized, in that white men of property would be substantially better off with the civil war outcome than the election outcome

If one faction or the other then burns the Reichstaag, providing a schelling point on which a civil war can be started, the incentivized civil war becomes likely.

I provided two possible definitions of slavery which one are you using or are you arguing for a different definition of slavery?

Definitions must be clearly laid out or arguments have no meaning. Without clearly defining slavery arguments about "slave labor" are fundamentally incoherent.


I'm calling bullshit on Marxist social justice moralizing.

Where slave labor is economically competitive, nature provides it. All this posturing about the power of man to be more noble, is social justice bullshit. The social justice warriors annoy me so much with their holier than thou lies.

Are you trying to make the case that my comments above or elsewhere are those of a Marxist?  I have written about the importance of religion in the Health and Religion my position there is decisively anti-Marxist.

It is actually your argument that it's all just nature and economics that fits in very well with the "Marxist" ideology.

Karl Marx's Analysis of Religion
http://atheism.about.com/od/philosophyofreligion/a/marx_4.htm
Quote
According to Karl Marx, religion is like other social institutions in that it is dependent upon the material and economic realities in a given society. It has no independent history; instead it is the creature of productive forces. As Marx wrote, “The religious world is but the reflex of the real world.”

According to Marx, religion can only be understood in relation to other social systems and the economic structures of society.

In fact, religion is only dependent upon economics, nothing else — so much so that the actual religious doctrines are almost irrelevant. This is a functionalist interpretation of religion: understanding religion is dependent upon what social purpose religion itself serves, not the content of its beliefs.

Marx’s opinion is that religion is an illusion that provides reasons and excuses to keep society functioning just as it is. Much as capitalism takes our productive labor and alienates us from its value, religion takes our highest ideals and aspirations and alienates us from them, projecting them onto an alien and unknowable being called a god.

My question for you iamnotback is do you agree with Marx analysis of religion above? Are you "a Marxist" on this issue?

CoinCube, my mother justifies any evil of the Democrat party, because in her lifetime "we ended racism and slavery".

Fucking lies.

All that social justice crap is built on lies about reality. It is a fraud and a mania feeding some desire to be holier than thou, judge others, feeling superior for accomplishing nothing but lies.

What she really wants is to have her cake and eat it too. For her to be empowered, regardless of her merits. Feminism is her power trip.

The reality is a diseased family result. My sister is dead. Son (myself) almost destroyed. Etc. (rather not talk about my family in public! but just so you get the point!) The pride of those who claim we've accomplished so much, is out of touch with reality.

And these people are so locked into their delusion that they can't or won't even look at it. It is a total waste of time to discuss it. We are in a war for our survival. And so I don't want to hear this bullshit about how noble we are and how we eliminated slavery.

Please read also my prior post with quotes from comments from others. White men are in a war now. Married white women who have good sense are on the side of white men in this war.

All the noble ideological social justice crap is just Soros manipulation trying to undermine our ability to fight. You regurgitating that slavery lie is akin to when you used to regurgitate the man-made global warming lie.

Religion is off topic. You are inventing a strawman afaics to support that you are still mindcontrolled by Soros ostensibly from your time in the academic setting. You seem to really believe that society has made great moral accomplishments. If anything will end slavery, it will be technology not morals.

That is not to say that white men don't have ethics. Their ethics are centered around being productive/competitive and the type of society that is required to be productive. When white men are coaxed into becoming SJWs they are destroyed.

I don't agree with r0ach to blame the plight of white men on the Jew bogeyman. White men have lied to themselves. They can only blame themselves. Those white men who want to exterminate entire races are SJWs, e.g. the Nazis and thus they destroy themselves.

Ah 160 IQ Eric Raymond is coming around to reality:

>Oh really? Try telling one [Libertarian] that open borders aren’t an unalloyed good, and see how fast the bigot word is heard.

I will raise my hand at this point and say that I am both as hard-core libertarian as they come and I have never dismissed restrictionists as mere bigots. Contingently wrong, maybe, but not bigots.

Reading about Robert Putnam’s research on how diversity erodes social trust has done a lot to move me on this issue. I am now cautiously in favor of immigration restrictions intended to prevent net loss of social trust and capital by preferring immigrants from cultures close to ours.

I think other libertarians are movable on this score. To move them, what you have to push home is the charge that they are undervaluing social trust relative to the labor input of immigrants.

I have said very little on global warming highlighting on more than one occasion my general lack of interest in that debate. Claiming I lied about slavery is simply untrue. You appear unwilling to actually define slavery. Not doing so may provide a degree of rhetorical flexibility, but it does so at the great cost making any discussion of the topic nonsensical. I would appreciate it if you would not mischaracterise my positions.

Humanity has made moral accomplishments over the last several thousand years. Whether one views these as great strides or marginal improvements depends I suppose on your frame of reference.

I noticed you did not answer my question above. That is ok I will let the matter rest. For those who agree with Marx's comments on religion l have a follow up query.

Communism Killed 94 Million in the 20th century.

more people died as a result of communism than from homicide (58 million) and genocide (30 million) put together. The combined death tolls of WWI (37 million) and WWII (66 million) exceed communism's total by only 9 million

Once you choose to embrace a major principle of Marxism (perhaps the core principle) of Marxism what gives you confidence your "solution" will turn out any better?

Voltaire [1768], "Response to the author of the book, The Three Impostors"

"My lodging is filled with lizards and rats;
But the architect exists, and anyone who denies it
Is touched with madness under the guise of wisdom.
Consult Zoroaster, and Minos, and Solon,
And the martyr Socrates, and the great Cicero:
They all adored a master, a judge, a father.
This sublime system is necessary to man.
It is the sacred tie that binds society,
The first foundation of holy equity,
The bridle to the wicked, the hope of the just.

If the heavens, stripped of his noble imprint,
Could ever cease to attest to his being,
If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.
Let the wise man announce him and kings fear him.
Kings, if you oppress me, if your eminencies disdain
The tears of the innocent that you cause to flow,
My avenger is in the heavens: learn to tremble.
Such, at least, is the fruit of a useful creed.

But you, faulty logician, whose sad foolishness
Dares to reassure them in the path of crime,
What fruit do you expect to reap from your fine arguments?
Will your children be more obedient to your voice?
Your friends, at time of need, more useful and reliable?
Your wife more honest? and your new renter,
For not believing in God, will he pay you better?
Alas! let's leave intact human belief in fear and hope.
...
I see from afar that era coming, those happy days,
When philosophy, enlightening humanity,
Must lead them in peace to the feet of the common master;
Frightful fanaticism will tremble to appear there:
There will be less dogma with more virtue. "

The comedian is funny but his core premise is untrue. Most scientists are not atheists.

I don't agree with r0ach to blame the plight of white men on the Jew bogeyman.

Not all Jews are trying to destroy western civilization, but most people who are trying to destroy western civilization are Jews (or just their paid cronies like Lindsey Graham, McCain, Rubio).  Someday you will figure out this is an objective fact and that women didn't just become SJWs out of nowhere.  The colleges who are run by Jews like Larry Summers and the media run by the same people spammed their propaganda for years to accomplish this.  Feminism is just a very slightly altered form of cultural Marxism and everyone with two brain cells to rub together knows who is behind cultural Marxism.

The end result is that you are left with a Machiavellian choice.  The only way to fight collectivists is with a collective solution, and there is no more collectivist group on earth than the Jews.  Deport them all; put them all in a rocket ship aimed at the sun; it doesn't matter.  All that matters is not being an idiot and figuring out your only choice comes down to either getting them out of your country in some manner, or they're going to enslave or destroy you.  

The Jew's signature trademark move, just like what they've currently done to America, is to infiltrate a nation, practicing extreme nepotism to take positions of power and form a state within a state, controlling it to the detriment of the native inhabitants.  The so called Hitler "final solution" choice was because anyone with two brain cells knows how these people function and deporting them solves nothing.  They would just take over a different nation in the same manner and use them as useful idiots to attack you with some type of manufactured cause.

Jews as a whole - just imagine hundreds of thousands of Bill Mahers walking around because there's your prototypical Jew - are the most devious, deceitful group of people on the entire planet.  Just like the Bill Maher you're already familiar with, their native tongue is literally the lie. You underestimate them because you think it's not possible for humans to act this way, that they would all have to be sociopaths or psychopaths.  They help overcome this step by classifying themselves as the "chosen" and you, the "goyim" as something below them.  Group evolutionary strategy where your lives do not matter and only theirs does.  They've written out the Torah and Talmud to state exactly that.

Look at the following video from just yesterday.  The Jew has no problem whatsoever lying to your face to accomplish his goals.  Just like the Mossad slogan "by way of deception" - yes, this is their actual slogan - the Jew shows you and even tells you beforehand exactly how he operates:

He thinks nations in Europe will have to dump gold reserves into the open market to pay for random shit/defaults on their obligations.  If they actually put up the gold for sale OTC, a nation like China or Russia would just buy it at spot or higher because people are already paying far above spot for locating large amounts of gold, so it really doesn't make much sense.  The fractional reserve gold exchanges likely want the stuff to reduce danger in their leverage too when it seems the US was already importing gold from Europe to prevent a run.  I don't think you can stop the metals under "the dollar is too strong" Trump.
