BIS chief Agustín Carstens: Bitcoin must depart from PoW.

I like how bankers starting to sweat they know Bitcoin will eat their lunch 

https://cointelegraph.com/news/major-central-bank-institution-bis-bitcoin-must-depart-from-proof-of-work

I experience a churning of my stomach when I see non-sense like that.  It is a sign of desperation, like you are suggesting, and it there is a kind of "holy cow" regarding the level of misinformation that is presented by the underlying assertion.

Some folks don't realize that the "holy shit" of bitcoin is wrapped up in its proof of work, so proof of work is a feature, not a bug.  Proof of work causes bitcoin incentive, and like you suggested, paashaas, will continue to generate incentives that cause the downfall of the whole financial system, causing value to flow into bitcoin.  The audacity of the article seems to show that there are many traditional financial incumbents who will be willing to battle quite strenuously to spread their nonsense about bitcoin supposedly being flawed, when in fact they are pointing out central features.. namely POW in this case.

By the way, bitcoin is stubborn and very difficult to change, too, and that remains as a feature rather than a bug to defend against misinformation campaigns that try to get bitcoin to become paypal-like, so stop whining about how stubborn and "inefficient" bitcoin is you fucking bank shill bitcoin naysayers.       

terse

your point?

I like.

Anyone who has time to complain about wealth inequality doesn't really deserve moving upwards in the food chain, as they could've invested the same time on figuring out sensible goals for their life as well as some steps towards them.

QFT.

+1

What he said.

What if they used the time, then figured out the solutions and then realized every one of those solutions would get them killed so decided to just sit back and complain until someone else finds a better solution that doesn't get them killed?

I can't even figure out what you are getting at. Working on life will get you killed? I guess in some sense. In the long run, we're all dead.

Life is hard. Buck up, bucko - or get lapped by those willing to put in the work.

It's obvious you don't and should consider yourself lucky for it, and it has nothing to do with putting in work.

[Hueristic]

Damn, I pretty patient when it comes to long term shit but this is getting ridiculous.

I've got bad news for you, friend... 

Scary times. :/

[Hueristic]

No one is asking for life to be fair.  It isn't. 

Just don't deceive yourself that you hit a home run because you happened to be born on third base.  

QFT, No matter what anyone says all men(read people) are not created equal, all we can do is to strive for all men to have equal opportunity.

[Hueristic]

He's trying to explain to the dumbasses you are that saying something as stupid as "if you have time to complain you don't deserve to go up" that maybe, JUST MAYBE, there is a more systematic problem and that success is absolutely not linked to hardwork.

Shut the fuck up and get your head out of your ass.

Anyone saying that success is linked to hardwork deserves to be let alone in any third world country to see how their hardwork will be rewarded. Or in any poor family in any Western country.

Assholes.

IOU +sM

Once we free ourselves from being "victims" of circumstances then the sky is truly the limit.

Or you can be born into privilege and not have to "free" yourself of anything.

IOU +sM

As with the other BIS news item of the day, it is 100% clear they are lying. They are smart enough to know Bitcoin fulfils many characteristics of store of wealth (in fact it fulfils all better than any alternative) yet claim it doesn't. They claim store of wealth as a characteristic of a good form of money but glance over the fact that fiat currency is not. Now they try to trick Bitcoin into destroying itself by giving up decentralization by replacing POW (after a long bullshit smear campaign calling Bitcoin mining wasteful and bad for the environent).

It seems like they are becoming desperate. Their campaign will likely (unfortunately) work to overturn Brexit (scaring and shaming the British public into voting remain in a second referendum) but will they succeed with Bitcoin? Their first social engineering attacks failed in the second half of 2017 (bcash en segwit2x).  As well as their attacks through the corruption of Mike Hearn and Gavin Andresen. Will this fail this time as well? I believe so but time will tell I guess. These are not small players ...

I had to look up "autological," but I already understood the meaning of weird.  

LMFAO, I'm not sure if it's the lack of sleep or not but this thread is fucking funny this morning.


If this shit gets below 2k, let alone 1k, then I'm selling everything including my skivvies and living on a street for a year!
Well the skivvies don't go until 1.5k!

Is it that ant for antminer? Didn't know chinese was a per-requiset.

Two major executives of Komid, a cryptocurrency exchange platform based in South Korea, have been sentenced to prison, according to a report by local Korean news outlet Blockinpress.

The two individuals were convicted of falsifying trading volumes on the exchange. Choi Hyunsuk, CEO of Komid, is one of the indicted individuals. He was given a three-year sentence for his role in the scam, while the other executive, In-House Director Park Mo, is set to be jailed for two years as well.
