... a new company is preparing to launch quantum computers that will mine bitcoins 1000x faster than ASICs...

I just heard about this. Is it true?

I read about it on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99497.msg2516240#msg2516240. Internet, must be true!

This now widely-accepted news will also mean the end of Bitcoin itself, since similar quantum computers will be able to break the SHA256 algorithm. In light of this news, as an act of charity, I will purchase everyone's Bitcoins for $1 USD each.

We could also be part of a Matrix, where our bodies are harvested and grown by machines.  This is just getting ridiculous.

I'll sell you my Testnet coins! You know, the quantum computers are going to be tested on testnet first.

Since you insist, here's another speculative angle.

Maybe they took hashes offline because they realized they could freeze the current difficulty for a bit while they work on getting the new boards ready.

That makes little sense. The difficulty is not adjusted once every 2 weeks, it is adjusted once every 2016 blocks. So if they "froze" the current difficulty and got tons of new board online, then the difficulty is going to rise in a day or so instead of 5, neutralizing the effect.

The difficulty increase will be a bit less, yes, but that's not worth it when you have BFL & Avalon starting to ship more, and with the lost mining power.

At the current block discovery rate, these 2016 blocks are going to take 3-4 weeks.  In the last hour we've had 2 blocks found, the last one was 45 mins ago. 

I'm not discounting your point, it would seem to be of limited value, but you have to admit that the timing feels right.

Hmm... won't that make the dividends take much longer than usual today?

What's the topic? Hard to sort it from those nasty shenanigans Wink

I just pity a future investor who turns up in 6 months time doing research and has 700 pages of this to go through rather than the 376 I forced myself through.

Although I have to say, when you read "Fast-forward" style, you get a reward of a friedcat post every hour. In real-time, this thread is a lot less exciting, no disrepect intended, I'm eagerly awaiting my first real-time friedcat post  Grin

I'm interested in what happened in Africa in the 1990's and 2000's. In many parts there infrastructure is poor, and liable to being unmaintained, stolen, or destroyed by conflict. Many parts of Africa have good mobile phone networks, though, as they're relatively cheap to deploy and can be deployed in numbers to provide redundancy (or even just moved around on trucks). If you said to a villager in many parts of Africa that his mobile phone can generate $2 a day if it does Bitcoin, he'd probably offer his daughter to you.

I've had a couple more thoughts riffing on this idea over a glass of wine. Yes, it is after 5 where I am.  Smiley

Make the chips as cheap as possible, maybe even *pay* mobile phone makers to bundle them into handsets.

Consider collaborating with other leading Bitcoin miners to fund development. Design goals are the best performance possible with low power. It will be designed to go into a cheap phone, so sleek design is not so important, i.e., the phone might be a "brick" with a larger battery.



Great idea. The bitcoins on phone can be changed to credit automatically. A phne that makes its own free credit.

This is actually a brilliant idea and doable. The phone wouldn't last very long but if it's a disposable free phone then it can beat out the Obama phone the US government is offering. You could just distribute the free phone to anyone who currently has an Obama phone as marketing.

Is someone actually intending to work on this idea? It seems like it could be doable right now.
