Craig claims Base58 was used by FlickR in 2007 in this tweet after being asked if he invented it. https://twitter.com/ProfFaustus/status/1034107267568885763Didn’t you invent base58check? You should explain why.. . No, Base58 was used by FlickR in 2007 He states that again here. https://twitter.com/ProfFaustus/status/1034124182181830656It explains the format Flikr introduced in 2007 on their servers... However this blog post from 2009 contradicts that by saying flickr recently introduced its short URL service which makes use of base58. http://mattsblog.ca/2009/08/08/flickr-short-url-generator/August 8th, 2009 at 5:14 PM (9 years ago) by Matt Freedman
Recently, Flickr introduced its short URL service for all photos (and videos) hosted on Flickr. All photos and videos have a corresponding flic.kr URL associated with them, in the format of flic.kr/p/xxxxxx (the last part is the base-58 encoding of the photo-id)
If flickr was using base58 on its servers in 2007 it should show up in short links in the source code of pages archived back then, but it doesn't. The image on this page was archived in 2007, then again in 2009. http://www.flickr.com:80/photos/pmorgan/32606683/A shortened link to it containing base58 doesn't show in the December 2007 snapshot of it, but does in the 2009 snapshot. Search the source code of these two snapshots for flic.kr/p/ yourself. It only appears in the 2009 snapshot. https://web.archive.org/web/20071011015832/http://www.flickr.com:80/photos/pmorgan/32606683/https://web.archive.org/web/20090929075056/http://www.flickr.com:80/photos/pmorgan/32606683/ I wonder if flickr would confirm it copied base58 from bitcoin and didn't invent the format itself.

Out-fkn-standing https://twitter.com/nickfogle/status/1033876976577273857I didn't want to worry about configuring a satellite dish, so I'm transmitting to Iridium's low orbit satellite constellation (this is what the US Military uses). Data speeds are a bit slower, but you can connect from anywhere on earth.
So a nail in the coffin to the 'ol "Well bitcoin will be useless if the power grid goes down" argument.

I think CNBC is just trolling at this point.
You don’t put your entry just below the trend line and your exit just above the trend line. That’s making your own life unnecessarily hard for no real gain. It’s the exact same thing they did with shorting, putting their short entry above the trend line and short exit below the trend line.

EDIT: For the record, I don't recommend eating ass. It's terrible.
I must disagree. OK. Fine. If you insist on a challenge, I will caveat my position on ass-eating. "Ass-eating is OK, fresh-out-of-the-shower, as an appetizer. Don't ever eat ass for dessert. I mean, unless that's your thing. In which case, that's OK too. I guess..."I'm glad we could reach an agreement.

Darn, I was starting to give Craig S Wright the benefit of the doubt since he is giving Jihan Wu the business. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) He also made an error in this tweet. https://twitter.com/ProfFaustus/status/1034476452522156032 His calculations for a 56k modem is in bytes when it should be in bits. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimage.ibb.co%2FgftRsp%2Ftweet.png&t=665&c=9bxj68YCPO5mEA)

What benefit of doubt? The guy has demonstrated countless of times how full of shit he is. I am fully expecting the day when we can see the thousands of patents he says he has been maniacally submitting during the past few months. Spoiler: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lQ_MjU4QHw

Spoiler: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lQ_MjU4QHwWell, he had Gavin Andresen fooled for a hot minute. I was just liking the flack he's been giving Jihan Wu, lately. I'm hoping Samson Mow is correct, and Bitmain is facing all kinds of trouble. Can't wait for that whale to be thoroughly harpooned by this bear market.

https://youtu.be/pTzCGV1w-ng Confronting Tech's Titans: Schooling Wall Street on Silicon Valley | Scott Galloway Interview From accurately predicting the recent price action of Bitcoin to foreseeing Amazon's purchase of Whole Foods, Scott Galloway, NYU Stern Professor and author of "The Four," has proven to be one of Wall Street's most clairvoyant commentators. In this interview with Datatrek's Nicholas Colas, the two discuss which tech titan will topple Apple to become the world's most valuable company, what the future holds for social media and the dangers of cryptocurrencies.

Is there a suggestion right now? Your bullish season course? We are going to be in September but I can still say that there is no light yet. You have to explode after one place.
