    Roger Finds out about Lightning Network

    Posted: 28 Jan 2018 07:09 PM PST

    Comments are open, please correct NIST: "When SegWit was activated, it caused a hard fork, and all the mining nodes and users who did not want to change started calling the original Bitcoin blockchain Bitcoin Cash (BCC). Technically, Bitcoin is a fork and Bitcoin Cash is the original blockchain."

    How everything was in reality

    Posted: 28 Jan 2018 11:55 AM PST

    Stripe paid $4.85 to refund my payment in BTC because it was 9 cents short at the time the payment was confirmed. Complete incompetence.

    Posted: 28 Jan 2018 08:47 PM PST

    I was making a political donation to a Libertarian candidate running for state legislature. She gives people the option to donate in Bitcoin and she's been doing a good job so I'm like why not.

    I input the amount of $100 USD I would like to donate and click on the BTC option. It automatically did the conversion and gave me the amount in BTC and QR code to scan to donate.

    I donate from a SegWit address and pay 13 SATS/Byte. 25 Cents. It get's confirmed within 20 minutes. Awesome I think. Nope.

    Stripe sends me an email telling me they have to refund the donation because they are now counting it as $99.91. Nine cents short. So they ask for a BTC address to refund.

    At least they sent the refund right away but they ended up paying $4.85 in fees to send it back to me. Complete incompetence. No wonder they announced they would stop Bitcoin payments. They must be losing lots of money.

    Now that transactions go through for 1 satoshi (LOL) can we agree we survived a Serious Attack by CoinBase/al.?

    Posted: 28 Jan 2018 10:43 AM PST

    Seriously, we are at 1 satoshi now. Even 0 satoshi go through. Free.

    The only reason the mempool got so big is Coinbase and other pump and dumpers which try to push their bitcoin ca$h garbage on everyone. Bitcoin Ca$h has zero reasons to exist anymore. Remove the spam attack and 1MB, combined with segwit and lightning, is plenty enough.

    But what pisses me off the most is that the most recent 2,000+ satoshi thing is 100% an attack on the bitcoin protocol. Maybe newbies saw the high fees and just assumed it was normal. It's not. A few players pushed a lot of spam transaction to clug up the mempool so fees would spike, in an attempt to KILL bitcoin. Period.

    All in all, bitcoin survived yet another attack to kill it, perhaps the 100th since it was created, and we should be happy about that. Coinbase et al. (I mention coinbase a lot because it was revealed they clugged up 50% of the mempool alone!) failed and probably ran out of cash at some point.

    So let's raise a glass to Bitcoin surviving another attack.

    Canada approved a mutual fund for retirement accounts - 50% of which is bitcoin. Why can't I have this in the U.S.?!?!?!
