Update from the Scaling Bitcoin Conference:
Vlad Zamfir continue along the same lines as Eric with his shard protocol: Share the f***ing work!
I'm so confident that bitcoin will scale, as long as these ideas are out there. The best code will win!
BULLISH!

Economists have know for 500 years that a currency must have some inflation, otherwise people will hoard it and it will not be available for use as a currency. What economists advocated this position in 1515? I've never come across these scholars in my actual academic work, or even the notion of economics as a discipline per se existing at that time... Guess they don't teach everything @ DeVry School of Janitorial Science  You may continue your smartification learnings here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_economic_thoughtPresumably you're referring to Jean Bodin (he's the only person in the relevant period where Wikipedia mention inflation)? I don't recall Bodin arguing that currency must have some inflation, only that inflation - where it existed - had a cause (he pointed to bullion importation from the New World as the cause in his time). My memory is hazy, though, and I do remember not really covering the pre-Classical economists much, because economics as a discipline didn't really get going until Adam Smith et al. |

I guess I tuned in near the end of his talk not knowing who was speaking till the end. I was very impressed by his clear and well organized way of talking. Then there was one of the young guys from "lightning" with... like, uh, you knowI can barely read from cue cards |

Absolutely. The price of Bitcoin has dropped by more than 40% since Wladimir started - increased by more than 2000% when Gavin was the lead dev before him.  |

What economists advocated this position in 1515? I've never come across these scholars in my actual academic work, or even the notion of economics as a discipline per se existing at that time, so whatever you've discovered must be truly groundbreaking. 500 years? Try 2000 years - have a look at Diocletian controls over inflationary debasement of specie in the roman empire. Not quite the same thing, but this has been an issue for a bit. In a more contemporary context2000 years and the fuckers still can't get it right. |

You are losing money everyday if you are holding fiat. Price of bitcoin remains constant ( 1 BTC = 1 BTC) only its relation to the inflationary fiat changes. Edit: The blockchain isn't here for the BTC, it is the other way around. Until you(we) finally understand this, the fiat price will forever be linked. |
