....Regarding  your second comment.  For standard payments, the miners confirm the blocks based on the transaction queue.  Instantx adds 5 confirms via masternodes and it would fail back to a standard payment if something happens.  For mixing, this is done before a transaction is sent and if a problem happens it just keeps trying different masternodes until a mixing is complete.

I'm still not clear on InstantX in the event of a fork event.

Say, one confirmation locks the transaction, but it happens during a fork, which ends up not being the longest chain.

Which fork do the MNs follow?

Being a high volume payment system, you could end up with thousands or millions of transactions on different forks?

Its probably not much different to any fork event.

Longest chain wins(or correct spork).  The transaction would wait in queue until the next block on the longest chain and default to a standard 1x confirmation on next block.

Actually, the last link is essential reading.

It raised a question or two on some issues I hadn't considered before.  The first one relates to back-ups. Lightning network hubs: what's the fail over plan? Does data just get lost?

What happens to MNs when they are holding a transaction and one or more gets taken down? Nothing, I guess. The MNs just select another group to complete a transaction, because users funds are still in their control during mixing.

Hmm. Interesting.

Not sure if you wrote that wrong accidentally, but masternodes are never in control of user funds, the coins never leave the wallet, they're just "rearranged" by the masternodes.    I think if someone pulls out of the mixing process, they might still be charged collateral, unless that's changed?  At that point, I think the mixing round failed and is abandoned to try again next time.

Also, I'm wondering if we can't have several masternode winner lists and several mixing sessions at a time?  or if not that, do we already, or can we make it so that the mixing sessions are for all denominations at the same time?

Yeah, its not clear.

I did mean funds are still in users control.

Thanks Tungfa.  New show for me.
Favorite quotes(paraphrased):
If Bitcoin can't survive XT maybe something better will come along.  (I know, I know...)
Miners don't want to fork because it can open up double spends or orphan blocks. (spork anyone?)

It would be so cool to have a little Dash icon with "The XT Alternative" on this show.

FYI, you can watch it at 1.5X speed if you enable the html5 player and click on the gear icon in the player.  Enable html5 player here: www.youtube.com/html5

Thank you Rux for setting up my masternode, quick easy and cheap, and of course very friendly!

"Bitcoin’s current design is unlikely to be the last word in making payments. It’s reasonable to think that one day it will be outcompeted or augmented by something else."

DASH perhaps?

 What other? That is

 a) Simple to use
 b) faster than all
 c) choice of anonymity
 d) nakamoto consensus
 e) Incentivised dedicated full nodes
 f) Bitcoin codebase
 g) auto-sustained development through democratic blockchain funding
 i) ... just wet myself
 j) dedicated multidisciplinary dev and testing team
 k) I could go on, but this is more than enough for the gist of it.

GhostPlayer is back with more shilling! Do you even know your alphabet bro? Or are you too busy wetting yourself?

Actually, as time goes on, that graph above represents the stock value of recycled stale troll commentary quite nicely.

Thanks for posting 

[AdamWhite]

No, it still represents the massive fraudulent instamine you tried (and failed) to sweep under the rug. First you "feel sorry" for Mtgox, then you openly support the biggest scam in crypto. You sure do have a knack for scam picking... oh and congrats on the Bitfinex delisting. Maybe it's time for another name change?

[Honest Tim]

Now taking orders!!

0.95 DASH a bottle.

Do let me know of any other flavours you might want to see in the future.

Polish DONE!

now that there is no donation address, can we not just import the dumped priv key from the cold wallet payment address to another unsafe hot wallet, I tried this and imported the priv key into the new wallet, and seems to work fine.
If you send within the hot wallet from the imported address to another address within the same wallet, this will make the payment balance of the 1k cold wallet disappear but will keep the 1k bounty intact.
So, effectively the 2 wallets are twinned by 1 mutually exclusive address.
wondering is this a 100% secure way of receiving masternode payments to an unsafe hot wallet, as the priv key for the 1k is still safe in the cold wallet that never has to be started up, am I missing anything, anyone ?

[AdamWhite]

Thanks Evan, this is the update with Masternode blinding, correct? Please confirm, you ignored me the last time i asked but i'm sure it wasn't intentional.  

If not, please explain why you announced masternode blinding and then never said another thing about it. Thanks again
