Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

All posts by me after 2012 were a compromised account. Probably by "BBOD The Best Futures Exchange". SORRY Y'ALL

I am new here, but have an extensive online history. An eBay account with 100% feedback, a longtime Youtube account, and am staff on a fairly large site. I would link all of those here, but why ruin anonymity? If I deal with anyone, I will provide all of that info. I have been a lurker for a while now, I have 213 BTC in my wallet from messing around late last year, and pretty much forgot about it after last January. I saw something about Bitcoin on Gizmodo, and I was amazed to see how high it had jumped! I figure that now would be a good time to start contributing to the community, seeing as how BTC has a chance to be the first real decentralized currency. I work in an industry that would greatly benefit from Bitcoin catching on, so here is to the future! |

Hey,
I've been involved with Bitcoin for a few weeks now, with only two to my name.
I do graphic and UI design, as well as sell buttons.

They call me Atlas on the sovereign web. As for real life, the name's Immanuel. I want to build things and dream of doing so all the time, in the name of assuring my own happiness and the pursuit of it for my fellow sentient beings. I see Bitcoin as a creation that will further these goals.
Godspeed.

I'm "edd" here and on other online forums and I created a twitter account for my coffee site, @BitBrew. Now, if just a few more of you guys would buy some beans from me, I'll quit my day job and tweet a lot more, promise.

Still around.

Hello Everyone;
Newbie here, with no excuse to be so, and kicking myself for not being involved earlier. Still, I believe Bitcoin has quite a future and I am happy to associate with such an interesting group.
I've already managed to lose my first 0.02 by forgetting the password, and am in Dwolla-Mt.Gox limbo waiting to buy my first few, looking at the stories here I'm amazed at how exponential growth has been.
Looking forward to being involved in this community.

Hi everybody! I'm unfinishe(d). I'm a young college student, I'm pretty much broke, and I'm overwhelmed by how much I have yet to learn about the world and figure out about myself (hence the name). I do programming for fun, especially crazy projects like tracing my coins all the way back to the 10,000 BTC pizza. You might see me around the forums doing whatever I can for BTC. |
