Maybe someone should link him to the technical thread where Kevlar steps everything out.
I made a submission. heeeeeeeeeee I’m happy.

r/Bitcoin is very circlejerky already.
The good thing is that it has started a discussion.
The seed has been planted. -
Well, I meant I made a submission to the Link project properOMGSOMEONEGOFINDIT
As for /r/Bitcoin itself, give a few days and someone “in” will talk about it and it’ll get proclaimed as the Second Coming of Crust.

[/quote]Nonono, I mean, er, I’m not making myself clear.I’m already using the site proper that Kevlar linked those who contributed to. I made a submission to the blockchain.

[sub]Which, again, I’ll have to reiterate a previous comment I made where I said that the idea of a Bitcoin Foundation is kind of a bad one. It’s showing someone is taking ownership of something that wasn’t meant to be owned or centralized.[/sub]

If only Satoshi had made the code open source so that anyone could have a go at setting up a global dialogue with a self stabilising consensus and then let the people decide through their collective action who should win.
If only it were easier to get to the top than it were to stay there. If only we weren’t ruled by tyrants at the mercy of their fear desperate for power and control.

I don’t want to sound alarmist - but it’s a cyclical thing. Historically speaking. And I see it happening to some extent with Bitcoin. The human aspect in its maintenance is prone to human fallacies - weaknesses - greed and ego.

[/quote]But those cycles are getting a lot shorter. And short enough to provide opportunity for adaptation within our own lifetimes rather than it being intergenerational. Change is the new normal and the rate of change is accelerating. Learn or die.

It’s entirely possible.The short answer is: New blockchain.
The long answer is MUCH more interesting.
Because the coins are being destroyed, the existing ones become more valuable. As the rate of deflation increases, the cost of publishing skyrockets until it becomes unfeasible. Also, you’re rich.
But let’s do the math. If 15 bytes is 1 satoshi, there’s 336 million FTC possible. 336,000,000 * 10,000,000 = 3,360,000,000,000,000 bytes. or a little over a little over 3.3 exabytes.
And that the FTC blockchain. What about InifiniteCoin? DogeCoin? NotYetInventedCoin?
I think it’s a problem people will decide how to deal with later. You can’t stop people from spending coins, so it’s a problem for the free market to solve using free market dynamics, like supply and demand.
[/quote]I like the long answer, thank you for that! I think I’m just going to store and build my ftc holdings for at least 6 months and hopefully by then ftc will be worth at least 10 euro :)
-
I love the idea. I sent you some FTC Kevlar. Hope it helps!
-
I don’t like the deflationary part. I’m partial to something being valuable because people use it rather than because everyone’s running out of it and losing their minds running to the nearest supply of artificially scarce virtual diamonds.
Still these are the early days. We may have a case for situations where coins may be truly destroyed (as in an entire block goes poof and the block total goes down). But that’s just me.
-
I actually wished there would be a high level discussion going on on Reddit about Link. None did actually understood it so this wasn’t possible (from hearing saying, not really getting it myself either).

Things are going well.
The round of testing has revealed a number of changes I need to make before we go at this again, so the site is down for the next 8 hours while I finish my work day. Hopefully I’ll have time for it tonight and will get the site back up.
Number 1 thing that needs to change is a I need to sanitize magnet links. Tuck seems to have found a problem with really long links, and really half the data in there doesn’t belong anyway. Also I can probably pre-populate the name field.
After that, xss sanitation. I’ll keep you updated here. :)

[/quote]Sweet. I posted the 3rd quarter of the FLUX model in the tech thread. Working on the last quarter. I’ll redo the proposal considering updated ideas. Would like to see ELI5 walkthroughs. We’re going to kick so much ass.

[/quote]Thanks for turning, “I’m a moron”, into you needing to sanitize magnet links. ;)
