From the RAND corporation virtual currency report: "The report suggests that the U.S. Department of Defense should disrupt decentralized digital currencies to prevent “unprecedented global access to information and communication services that, at its core, is agnostic to the national security interests of the United States.”
Therefore, the RAND report suggests pre-emptive strikes and notes that “perhaps the best strategy for the United States and its allies to thwart a VC deployment would be to target those properties of a VC that would most increase its acceptance, most notably transaction anonymity, security, and availability.”Link: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/40lwsq/the_rand_corporation_report_national_security/

Bitcoin mining is more like a cartel rather than a free market. When 4-5 people have supermajority, it's an issue.
A little different when these 4-5 people are backed by thousands who contribute hashes to them, and will move their hashes if they vehemently disagree with their decisions. In development, we have even fewer people with permanent veto power to block any change involving a hardfork, because consensus. Oh, and these people happen to have formed a company, and have been given $21 mil to build a profit seeking business that can provide the medicine for a disease that they incubated... an issue indeed. Too much blame for my preferences... It's not like altcoins have solved scaling or the attack vectors related to spamming (except by raising fees - which is the way for BTC too). In the end of the day there is an equilibrium between the available transaction space, the fees paid, the abuse the network gets and the willingness of miners to mine transactions. And this equilibrium will not get any better (in favor of scaling) if either a) the software itself doesn't gets better in terms of using storage, processing and network resources b) the resources themselves aren't upgraded to cope, as technology improves

I'll be blunt: I think Luke Dashjr fits the definition of a poisonous person, and I think Bitcoin would be better without him. At the very least, we wouldn't be creating two BIPs for every technical issue, one for Luke and one for the rest of us (see BIP 16/17, and now we have BIP 20/21, too). ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FSsoJcpb.jpg&t=665&c=rh0TjpzCByGRyQ) LOOOOOL

did anyone here get any news about bitcoin? why did the bitcoin from $450 to 430? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) is that an affection by the stock market recovery? would this lead bitcoin to either better or worse?

Cor devs really screwed the pooch letting this fork get so out of hand before backpedaling. Hopefully they will lose enough credibility with miners so we can just go to 2 MB when the blocks fill up.
Consensus is forming around 2MB.

The dump was stopped by the Stampline (and the previous $430 level). We will probably follow the Stampline for a while. Bitstamp: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FGMZ7SWP.png&t=665&c=x4I0Gxc38HDOGA) wow that's escalated quickly, up $20 within a few hours, can anyone here to explain the reason? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Someone could be trying to prop the price up. Huobi: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F1T0HWa3.png&t=665&c=K5djhGFVyo4Qng) And it probably involves lent money (even if it started before all the money was lent). Bitfinex USD swaps: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FIPaT1mo.png&t=665&c=kWUj3n8Xpe_W-A) It seems I was right. The pump just delayed the dump. (Though we didn't actually go below the previous price level, so maybe it's too soon for me to gloat.)
