If Bitcoin Diamond has more proof of work than Bcash, then Bitcoin Diamond will become the real Bcash.

There's no such thing as "more proof of work" unless you claim there's some intrinsic characteristic that makes SHA256 the only valid hash function that exists, which there is clearly not and it's just a meaningless, arbitrary talking point.  Which is much higher on the list of problems than complaints from other people such as "the only valid proof of work would require 51% of energy in the entire known universe".  Forget about total energy/work usage, there is not even a common consensus point in which to exert that energy on, especially when you consider SHA256 quantum vulnerability to things like Shors/Grovers.  Just another reason to flop onto the stack as to why bitcoin and all other cryptocurrency are just Rube Goldberg machines that don't actually do what they claim.

154Mill Tether (margin market) on Bitfinex...prepare  Grin

Although I have not lost a cent due to the Bitfinex staff manipulating the price of bitcoin up or down (such as during the halving when they tried to naked short their own exchange and it blew up in their face so they stole everyone's money and claimed they were hacked),  I really want to see those guys go to jail for creating a 1:1 replica of MtGox right after MtGox itself.  And yes, when Finex inevitably blows up, it will probably blow up the rest of the bitcoin market once everything comes to light with them being the main controller of price all the way from $200 to $8000 MtGox-style.

Do people really believe marginal buyers exist for bitcoin at $8000 in a pure vertical, hyperbolic move? Hell no.  Well, maybe like 2 guys on the entire planet or a few small fish lunatics, but those guys aren't the ones putting up walls that control the price. Moves like this are only done in two ways, either entirely financial fraud, or one guy who owns like 90% of the market and hence has an illiquid asset, puts his illiquid asset on margin to leverage....a higher priced illiquid asset (which is how they raised the value of Ethereum).

Bitcoin Diamond is not an offshoot of Bcash. It represent’s Jihan’s original vision with the original functionality restored. Bitcoin Diamond is an upgrade of Bcash. Bitcoin Diamond has better privacy protection than Bcash, including encryption of the transfer amout and balance which protects user’s privacy.  Bitcoin Diamond also has faster transaction confirmations than Bitcoin Cash.  Who wants to wait 10 minutes (or 3 hours depending on oscillations) when Bitcoin Diamond confirms every 2 minutes.  Bitcoin Diamond is a superior technology that will flippen Bcash.

Bitcoin Diamond is a faster, superior Bcash.  Upgrade today and start spending now.

The average Bitcoin Core or Electrum user can just use Coin Control and do his own mixing (or non-mixing) or just bouncing it off a bunch of addresses, and that's without sending them to exchanges.

While this is true, full blocks make this very time consuming and very expensive. Of course, mixing is a poor substitute for actual anonymity. But perhaps workable in practice for noninteresting transactions.



Also, the development team is a bunch of very well known and reputable folk in the coding community, with ties to the British MI6 mind you! I'm very reassured now...



Isn't it obvious from the silhouette who it is? It's Conan O'Brien!


... ... ...

Well, r0ach, what you don't seem to get is...

oh hell forget it - it's like talking to a wall. It ain't worth the time.


If Bitcoin Diamond has more proof of work than Bcash, then Bitcoin Diamond will become the real Bcash.

I don't see how that position is defensible, what with the mining algo change, the 210 M inflation, the segwit trojan, ...

Of course, their website is a scrape and cut'n'paste of the Bitcoin Cash website - is that what you were trying to convey?

(I think you forgot a /sarc)



An experienced user that should be difficult to fish/trick, but through economic incentives, was persuaded to adopt the idea that there can be many different bitcoins all at the same time or that it can just randomly change from one thing to another.  

Well, no. But thanks for playing.

OTOH, 'experienced financiers' can be tricked into accepting different things as gold, such as paper, IOUs, or ledger entries from their broker.

Real "money" can't morph or change from one thing to another because then it would not be fungible, hence bitcoin gold isn't and never was "money" in the first place.  

Except we know that gold has served as money. So your argument that bitcoin is not falls on its face. Nevermind that your initial postulate fails from a terminal misunderstanding of the nature of Bitcoin.

So how's that wampum doing for ya, r0ach?

You know things are getting desperate around here when Torque and Jbreher quote me and remove all content from the quote because they're unable to put forth any argument whatsoever against it.  It will be two paragraphs and the quote will either be replaced with "..." or they will move things around to try and turn it into a pro-pump statement lol.  MatTheCat posts they have no problem quoting because they're easy to ridicule, but those r0ach posts have to be hidden to prevent the goyim from knowing.

I mean, miners themselves can send free transactions with no opportunity cost assuming the network wasn't already maxed out to manipulate this number to whatever they want.

No, they can't : https://bitcoincore.org/en/2016/06/07/compact-blocks-faq/
If they do this "all the time", they loose blocks ... because they don't use mempool.

I read the white paper. Too much jargon for me to fully grasp but if this sharding thing works with full decentralisation, high Tx throughput and low fees, it could be a blast.

You know things are getting desperate around here when ...

I'll quote you. I read what you post. I find it interesting. Doesn't change my mind about holdings and I have more than just the forks too. And yes, I have gold and silver too. Physical. My ring is tungsten.

While this is true, full blocks make this very time consuming and very expensive. Of course, mixing is a poor substitute for actual anonymity. But perhaps workable in practice for noninteresting transactions.
Even when blocks are full, I just pay $1 worth in tx fees and wait the next day. Sometimes it still confirms in 20 minutes even with that low of a fee. All my transactions are intentionally noninteresting, I try to blend in with the crowd. Sometimes I'll use a Coin Join too, just so I can get tainted with a few hundred others.

I should just hodl, but I have stuff to pay, and it's good that I'm actually using crypto to pay for living expenses, and toys.

Thanks for taking your time, Wekkel. Might be worth it.

On another note: Apologies for the roughness the other day. Might have been that you were not all wrong about Iota's shortcomings regarding the Bitfinex withdrawals. It was a late night. Peace.

For the Tx throughput please see here: http://explorer.radix.global/

I seriously have high hopes for the Radix project.
