Happy New Year,



You filthy animals.

The problem is that the cost [ of validating a transaction ] grows like N^2 for N inputs. 

By the way, there is no excuse for the cost to be quadratic.  That is one of the many crocks in the BitcoinCore implementation, that will take more crocks to work around.  Like the Segregated Witnesses proposal,  malleability and its partial patches, blockchain voting to increase the limit, etc..

There you have another possible failure mode for Bitcoin: runaway code crockification (RCC).  As the code gets more complicated and ugly, fewer competent people will be willing to work on it.  Their place will be taken by incompetent pople, who will add even more crocks -- and so on until the code will fail and there will be no one capable of fixing it in time.

Just a possibility; but after seeing the malleability problems,  the Fork of July fiasco, the "fee merket" plans and the RBF hack, the Seg Wit proposal -- I fear that the RCC may be already underway...

Curious, professor, to have your take on current efforts to de-crock the Satoshi codebase going on here -> http://thebitcoin.foundation

And... it's the future. Off to get my self-driving car. Can Bitcoin scale now? I'll need micropayments for parking.

Thanks,

We need bubble.

we need a berry, berry big bubble imho

I however see sideways price action (as per usual in btc)in 2016...consensus among BTC devs not gonna go fast imho...baby steps....more banker fud that blockchains are the future and bitcoin is dead..and of course some other crap...like say Crpstey going 'kaput' or something else.....it is "the way of bitcoin" tm (zen like in its own way) ie .... "Channel the FUD grasshopper"
