This release include various changes. The most notable is a difficulty adjustment algorithm that decrease the difficulty in case hashrate gets very low. We obviously which that this feature won't be used, and it won't kick in if hashrate stay above 8% of the global hashrate. However, this ensure that this chain will survive no matter what, as long as someone think it is valuable.

Maybe if you have some old ASICs, they can be useful again ...

How long for this code to be implemented?

Maybe in the winter, but not now, it's already too hot!

It is already here:

https://github.com/Bitcoin-ABC/bitcoin-abc/commit/7ad1105f43d7bff158d4b5c882ab9bf1b74d6cce

It is on the links that I've put before.

The r0ach report 18: The great PoW lie

https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@r0achtheunsavory/the-r0ach-report-18-the-great-pow-lie

I am touched.

You say that cryptocurrency does not improve on metals in any way?

I shall make you a deal- if you can send me 1 Ounce of Gold to arrive to me in the next hour- I shall pay you  $10,000 (because thats how much I loves me some gold)  for it in Bitcoin which should likewise arrive within the hour? Sounds like a fair deal to me.

It's not a valid argument.  It's like complaing about the speed of light existing, while if it did not exist, everything would happen at the same time.  That friction is required for anything to exist at all and also for things like decentralization to exist.  Reducing friction to zero is not actually a beneficial trait, especialy when doing so requires you to change from sound money to unsound money.  It's a pro-hyper globalization argument when globalization just leads to collapse.  

It's like Joseph Tainter says, "collapse is rapid simplification on a mass scale".  Such a thing can only happen if all systems are interconnected under globalization.  It's necessary to buffer systems off from one another induced by friction to avoid said outcome.

Wow, there are over 20K BTC available for loan offers on Polio. Guess few want to go long on bullshit.

August 1st will be a fun date it's basically the cliffhanger and season finale we have all been waiting for drama wise.
Since we have been on a rerun of lets do something for the last couple months and before that 2016 then saw the limit and backlogs increasing txt fees and people finally going zomg its a happening lets do something now.
Volcanos will rise up during the month of August.
Let the popcorn be eaten.

Haven't you forgotten there just about the inherent latent repulsion forces sourced by the Nash equilibrium in Satoshi-PoW, that causing a big price drop if 'the centralization' (needs to be defined) is unveiled to the masses > trust is lost?

This is not working in metals ...

Strange that they are making the OpenBazaar of Sex when they could just use OpenBazaar and create an interface for sex.

if they use openbazaar then there will be no token and no revenue.

btw, isnt it sound like a modern day pimp ?

Europe has websites that advertise escorts like going to Amazon.com. The prudish countries like Iran and the US aren't used to such things.

This looks like a nifty tool: "What is the effect of changing the bitcoin MAX_BLOCK_SIZE?"  https://iancoleman.github.io/blocksize/#_  Props to Ian Coleman!
