There's no single entity with 51% of the hash rate, so there's only a problem if you're working under the assumption that mining pools must be colluding because they happen to reside within the same arbitrary borders and communists made them do it... or something like that, anyway.   Roll Eyes

Here's the state of the network over the last 24 hours:


I remain unconcerned.

You are disingenuously spreading lies and you know it.

It has been explained to you numerous times that it is not the pools that are the only point of centralization but also the mining farms. There is one cattle farmer in China who is investing in a mining farm large enough to mine 30% of all BTC that is stolen from us via printing-coins-out-of-thin-air (aka coinbase block reward) to pay miners.

Still not 51%, though, is it.  There is no individual with more than 51% of the hash rate.  So again, unless you're working under the assumption (because you have no proof) of collusion, then there is no issue.  There is no lie present in what I've said.  Just your wild accusations of ill intent.


Also it is entirely illogical to claim that cartels and oligarchies do not cooperate with each other, when in fact all throughout history of mankind they always do, because it is the only way they can control the pricing and reap more profit for themselves. It has already been explained to you numerous times that the Chinese mining cartel prevented the timely increase of the block size by refusing to mine on Bitcoin Classic or XT.

I support a larger blocksize too, but just because that didn't get enough support from miners, it doesn't automatically prove beyond all doubt that they're colluding to achieve that result.  You are speculating.  Guessing.  Assuming.  You have no definitive proof of collusion.


This is very dangerous for our future, because it means in the future when the Chinese government says to these mining farms in China (which control more than 50% of Bitcoin's network hashrate) that they must change the protocol to require that every transaction include a signed government issued identification number or that every signed transaction must include a tax contribution to China or the world government, then the miners will have no choice but to comply because otherwise they will find their $100 millions investment in mining equipment padlocked and confiscated by the government.

And in the highly unlikely event that were to happen, the rest of us would happily let them fork away to mine an empty chain that none of us would be transacting on.  You can take off your "The end is nigh" sandwich board now.

 


What kind of delusional fantasy world do you live in DooMAD.

The one that makes a hell of a lot more sense than the delusional fantasy world you're from.

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.

some user sayd that two of those pool may be owned by the same entity, even if they appear to be contorlled by different people

i mean what are the chances that the owners of two separate pool are themselves under the directives of a single entity? another guy?

Bitcoin is an American invention? Has this been confirmed for sure?
I really don't think so, as we all know bitcoin creator have choosed satoshi as his username in all the places where he have started posting about bitcoin on early days. So its like created by some asian guy from china, japan etc. Proud to be asian if this get proved.  Grin

It really doesn't matter from which country he belongs, the best thing is he has invented best currency so far which is helping us in many ways, and for that we should be thankful to him.

Sources says that Satoshi use perfect British English which mean he live in English or learn British English very well, but it doesn't matter at all.
We should says Bitcoin is Satoshi's Invention and it's alive Roll Eyes

Also, bitcoin's technology comes from various technology from various country as well.

Yes and I think bitcoin will be more powerful in future, and price is rising now so it clearly shows that bitcoin is still alive and very much in the game at a moment.

And it really doesn't matter who he truly is, because all he's probably gonna get from us bitcoin holders is the attention, appreciations and recognition that we can give. Plus, I assume that he's keeping his identity because he's going to get too much attention both from the government and the media which surely would change his lifestyle as of the current.

Bitcoin is alive and it will be alive in future too, I don't see any reason that it can disappear or get dead, as the number of users are increasing on regular basis.

We have a nice thread that proposes AnonyMint's view that Bitcoin('s decentralization) IS in fact destroyed at the very moment, by Chinese mining operations.

I say the opposite: Chinese mining operations live off Bitcoin, which is an American invention. Bitcoin is alive and kicking as can be;  network is doing amazingly well.

Who said that Bitcoin is an American invention, if anything satoshi was not american he used British English and a British newspaper in the genesis block???
