    What is Cobra really doing for Bitcoin Cash and Roger

    Posted: 12 Sep 2018 07:28 PM PDT

    While some BCH 'supporters' are complaining about price (cc Cobra) and throw in the towel, this girl from Venezuela, for whom BCH solves a real life problem, tweeted this few hours ago: "If you have bitcoin cash & need a logo I'm the solution to your problem". This is why adoption is gold!

    Establishing CashShuffle protocol details

    Posted: 12 Sep 2018 09:37 PM PDT

    Great work CashShuffle team getting this working.

    I'm building a JavaScript implementation cashshufflejs (docs, diagrams). If it's possible I'd like to talk to the devs about some technical details so we can ensure compatibility.

    Address format. There are different address formats. If clients use different formats they'll get different results at certain steps, eg when hashing the output list. I propose we standardize on using the CashAddr format for all work involving addresses.

    Wire delimiting. The current code delimits messages on the wire with the Unicode character U+23CE Return Symbol in UTF-8. That comes out to the 3 byte sequence e2 8f 8e. I don't think there's any guarantee this byte sequence will not appear in messages. I'm concerned this will cause broken messages. Proposed change: write the message byte length preceding each message, as recommended in the protobuf docs.

    Output list serialization. The protocol produces a list of output addresses, transferred first encrypted and eventually in plaintext once shuffling is done. The current code packages into multiple packets and seems not to sign the full list. I'm concerned this a security hole. One possible approach here is to define a serialization and store the full list in the single packet.message.str field. Proposed format: items delimited with ampersand &. That's a character not in either the Base64 representation used for ciphertexts or the CashAddr format used for addresses.

    Hash function input. Phase 4 runs an equivocation check. At this point the output list is known. Everyone hashes it (along with encryption public keys 2-N) and confirms all hashes are identical. The current code serializes these lists with the Python str() function. The Python docs call this an "informal" representation of the object. It doesn't seem to have a specified format. I don't think it's guaranteed to stay the same. I think we need to define a precise format for this value, and hopefully choose something that is easy to achieve in any language. Proposed format: encryption keys in ascending order 2-N, output addresses in order observed in final broadcast message, all concatenated with no delimiter. In JavaScript that's: [ ...encryptionKeys, ...outputList ].join('').

    For anyone interested it's possible to run a test session with cashshufflejs. It runs a real session through a local mock server (without submitting to the BCH network). Real output addresses, real signatures, etc.

    git clone https://github.com/bookmoons/cashshufflejs.git cd cashshufflejs npm install npm run demo:session 

    You'll get something like:

    John: Shuffling with 3 participants Mary: Shuffling with 3 participants Marduk: Shuffling with 3 participants John: Broadcasted encryption public key Mary: Broadcasted encryption public key Marduk: Broadcasted encryption public key Marduk: Gathered participant encryption keys Marduk: Phase 1 Announce complete Marduk: Generated output address John: Gathered participant encryption keys Mary: Gathered participant encryption keys Marduk: Phase 2 Shuffle complete John: Phase 1 Announce complete Mary: Phase 1 Announce complete John: Generated output address Mary: Generated output address John: Sent encrypted output list John: Phase 2 Shuffle complete ..

    I am preparing a Q and A with CSW: Let me know what do you want to ask him

    Posted: 13 Sep 2018 12:06 AM PDT

    As per title: No obvious troll questions or anything related to altcoins or anything silly.

    People misunderstand him and he is scapegoated some times.

    Yes his Twitter and frequent lashouts doesn't help, I agree.

    But he makes valid comments on certain things and has a wealth of knowledge and experience and understanding about things both inside and outside Crypto and we can learn from him.

    Thanks post below, and I will consider it and let you know.

    Will ignore trolls. Don't care what you do or think.

    Will take questions until Friday/Saturday morning.

    Will send out list on Monday and share link here on Monday.

    Reddit has banned /r/GreatAwakening. Regardless of your thoughts on the subreddit, this is how real adoption of Bitcoin (BCH) occurs. Uncensorable social media exists today on Memo.cash and Matter.Cash. Twitter and Reddit are the social media of yesterday. Join them now!

    Posted: 12 Sep 2018 12:02 PM PDT

    This should be spread loud and proud to the political outcasts. A subreddit of 70k+ was just banned for talking about conspiracies. The ability to engage in decentralized discussion with no one entity controlling the server exists today in Bitcoin (BCH)!

    They also took down copay and BitPay. This has nothing to do with branding. Something else is happening.

    Some thoughts on why we are here and what we are building

    Posted: 12 Sep 2018 11:35 AM PDT

    The business of life is to collect, create and grow faster than entropy can break down and destroy.

    This premise can be related to finance. As an individual in the current system your job is to build and grow purchase-power faster than your environment devalues your income in XYZ currency.

    For common people, the entropy of our legacy global banking system acts to destroy their money faster than they can build it. This is done through quantitive easing, unfair lending (that guarantees large profits for banks while keeping common people in debt) and centralized inflation rates that devalue hourly work and long-term saving.

    Our legacy system is built by the wealthy of our world to control and continue their wealth. They bribe (lobby) government officials to get laws enacted that keep things the way they are, or make them worse. This ensures that the system continues functioning for them while the larger majority suffers. If you take a step back and really look at our global financial system, it starts to look more and more like a machine of systematic slavery for most people. Free-market capitalism doesn't work if the rules underlying the financial system are rigged for a small percentage at the top. A system like this starts to resemble a communism-dictatorship or a dictatorship-oligarch system.

    Cryptocurrencies have challenges which are being fixed over time, but their advantages over the current system outweigh those challenges. The legacy financial system will try to neutralize the benefits of cryptocurrencies in an effort to continue their own existence. They will do this by adopting only the parts of cryptocurrencies that make them money while trying to destroy the parts that threaten their own existence. We've already seen this: they have corrupted developers in order to gain centralized control of coins and the've started turning blockchains into their own for-bank settlement networks. This began in 2013 with Bitcoin/BTC's development team. BTC began to be hot-wired as a settlement layer while on-chain transactions became expensive and unusable with $35 fees. Legacy banks funded Blockstream, who has essentially completely control over BTC development. BTC's exchange-rate has grown on exchanges, but it's utility as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system has been castrated after being infiltrated by AXA. The Lightning Network - a system based on the idea of IOUs - will never work in a peer-to-peer way without centralized hubs, defeating the purpose that Bitcoin was created for. With BTC, banks won.

    The original Bitcoin developers (pre-2013) who actually understood what Bitcoin was meant to be (peer-to-peer electronic cash) were kicked out. This is why Bitcoin Cash exists and this is why Bitcoin Cash is Bitcoin, because it stays true to the original purpose of Bitcoin.

    Bitcoin was created to fix centralization by enabling strictly peer-to-peer transactions without having to trust a third party. Anytime you insert a centralized entity into a system, it is almost always a power grab that causes everyone else involved to suffer. Centralized systems have inherent flaws because they are run by people. People are inherently greedy. I'm very distrustful of any single individual claiming authority for the benefit of others. I'm also distrustful of anyone with patents, even if they claim that they are for the benefit of protecting everyone. This includes nChain (control to gain money, prestige, power), BitcoinABC (control to gain ego, respect) or any other individual who tries to claim to be a person of authority. The inward fights only weaken us and your actions expose your intentions.

    It's hard to envision this now, as is always the case after bubbles pop, but as we move forward and cryptocurrencies see new highs in the years to come, I'm asking for developers in this space to follow the lead of Gavin Andresen. When Satoshi disappeared, giving him control over the Bitcoin codebase, instead of using that power for his own gain he pushed for more decentralized decision-making and slowly stepped back from his lead development position. Admittedly, this created a power gap that was filled by for-profit Blockstream developers, but in the long term, I think this will have been shown to be the right move.

    I believe the current developers should be anti-power, anti-ego and have a willingness to work with others. That's the only way we can grow this decentralized experiment into something worthwhile that might stand up against entropy's test of time.

    Bitcoin (BCH) is a leap forward, but it's important to remember that the world moves forward at the pace of a walk. People will need time to catch up and truly understand what is being built for them.

    My sincere gratitude goes out to all of the BCH developers that are working hard to make peer-to-peer electronic cash a reality.
