    I have extremely worrying news to report, the Reddit admins have apparently replaced the mods in several subs with a community voting system, including r/libertarian and several crypto subs...

    Posted: 01 Dec 2018 01:10 AM PST

    This is a dire warning. Please see this thread and the thread it links to:

    http://reddit.com/r/GoldandBlack/comments/a1u3ya/this_couldnt_possibly_backfire/

    This was done by the Reddit admins without first coming to the mod team to ask if they wanted to do it, according to one of the mods of r/libertarian.

    This system gives increasing voting power to shitposters and creates huge incentive to brigade, offering the power to take over entire subs, even to use this voting system to potentially replace the mod team.

    Mere up / down voters of content and silent readers / lurkers of a sub would have no power to determine the direction of that sub.

    These points get distributed by activity and users can literally control the rules and policy of the sub through voting polls, and the more activity you have the more your vote is worth.

    It has been suggested that Reddit may see this as a way to replace the moderator system site-wide eventually. Others say it's the pet project of one Reddit admin being tested out.

    But the fact that the Reddit admins are forcing it on the sub without moderator consent is crossing the line.

    Contentious subs could be taken over by numerically superior opposition.

    Some think this is reddit's answer--a poison pill, to get rid of subreddits and moderators they don't like.

    But if this ends up happening here on this sub, we're going to need to have a plan in place for a Reddit replacement the community can move to and rely on (and no, not Voat).

    And it has got to be decentralized, p2p, and with decentralized-moderation.

    This move by Reddit admins is extremely troubling, and if rolled out to all if Reddit would, in my opinion, mean the end of Reddit's usefulness, the status quo would destroy all "problematic" subs.

    It's censorship by another means, allowing the most dedicated trolls to destroy a community as long as they're willing to work at it.

    Adoption is better than price

    Posted: 30 Nov 2018 10:17 PM PST

    We need to focus on adoption of Bitcoin (ABC real BCH) more than focusing at the price ratio dropping and concerns about centralization. The adoption in North Queensand is proof our community is stronger than ever

    I guess yet another evidence CSW is not Satoshi. The conclusion of the Bitcoin white paper is clear: miner don’t need to be identified. Yet somehow now “Satoshi” try to implement minerID....

    1. Conclusion We have proposed a system for electronic transactions without relying on trust. We started with the usual framework of coins made from digital signatures, which provides strong control of ownership, but is incomplete without a way to prevent double-spending. To solve this, we proposed a peer-to-peer network using proof-of-work to record a public history of transactions that quickly becomes computationally impractical for an attacker to change if honest nodes control a majority of CPU power. The network is robust in its unstructured simplicity. Nodes work all at once with little coordination. They do not need to be identified, since messages are not routed to any particular place and only need to be delivered on a best effort basis. Nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone. They vote with their CPU power, expressing their acceptance of valid blocks by working on extending them and rejecting invalid blocks by refusing to work on them. Any needed rules and incentives can be enforced with this consensus mechanism.

    Let's Talk About Price: A Pick Me Up in Dire Times

    Posted: 30 Nov 2018 12:59 PM PST

    Let's get a couple things out of the way. Short term price fluctuations do not matter. Long-term adoption, a clear roadmap, competent developers, miner support, and ecosystem/infrastructure are what matter.

    This of course, does not help to mitigate the pain of short-term losses. If you're like me, you've lost a lot of money in the past year. It's small comfort to know that the entire market is going through it's cyclical, post-bubble readjustment. BCH, more than most of the other top coins/tokens, has gotten an unbelievable beating in the past 11 months, all culminating in the travesty of the hash war.

    As if this wasn't demoralizing enough, if you seek to learn from or contribute to other crypto forums, you have to endure an endless stream of negativity dumping on BCH as a scam coin, a shit coin, etc. This is now compounded by a sustained attack of rented fingers typing out endless drivel about SV.

    When I feel my convictions wavering, I remind myself:

    Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect. -Mark Twain

    Perhaps this makes me a fool. Maybe they're all right and they see the picture more clearly than I do. At the end of the day I can't reconcile that potential reality with the absurdity of Core's choices to strangle the BTC chain or the blatant ripoff that is SV. BCH may not have all the answers, but it's still got the Bitcoin legacy, the innovation, the development team, the miners, and the marketing to become what it purports to be: peer-to-peer electronic cash for the entire world.

    That's why I'll be buying more BCH tomorrow, and next month, and the month after that. That's why I'll be trying to use it in commerce as much as possible. And that's why I'll continue to ignore the cesspool of trolls and power-brokers that seek to sink this upstart minority fork.

    I urge you to ignore the negatives and focus on the positive. I continue to believe that those of us here now will eventually be rewarded with a return (in purchasing power, NOT fiat) orders of magnitude greater than anything seen in 2011, 2013, or 2017.

    10-Year of BTC

    Posted: 30 Nov 2018 04:00 AM PST

    Based on today's event, I can deduce that Craig is NOT Satoshi. Here's why.

    Posted: 30 Nov 2018 08:56 AM PST

    Today's events is refering to a message "nour" from http://p2pfoundation.ning.com/profile/SatoshiNakamoto and the random tweet from Craig Wright a few hours later. Craig's random out of nowhere tweet message is, I quote, "Some seek a world of shadows... We seek a universe of light". The intention is clear that Craig is trying to get people to think that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, without realizing that the "nour" message came from a hacked account and not Satoshi himself.

    SatoshiNakamoto account was hacked and here's the proof. https://blog.p2pfoundation.net/satoshi-nakamotos-account-hacked/2014/09/09

    Given that we know the account was hacked (which Craig was unaware of)... Think about it. If Craig is tweeting that message "leaving clues" to get people to think he is related to Satoshi, then the intention is to get people to think he is Satoshi. I think we can all agree on this intention, otherwise, why post a random message hours later about "lights" after the hacked account posted something similar.

    Now why would the real Satoshi need to do some convoluted shit like that? Satoshi could just post "I am ABC... ABC is Satoshi." without coming up with all the scammy con man tricks up their sleeves.

    Satoshi could even do something really simple, like move his bitcoin from his original wallet with op_return vague message like... "I am from xxx country, born on month / year." That will provide plausible deniability in any case, and sufficient to suggest who could be Satoshi.

    This event today has add credibility to what many people had said about Craig all along, that he is a fraud and a con man. Now, if you are still fooled, then there is no one else to blame except yourself. Remember the saying, "It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."

    Selfish mining

    Posted: 30 Nov 2018 04:07 PM PST

    Hi!

    I'm trying to develop a simulator for the bitcoin's blockhain to run some attack scenarios (51%, dossing, selfish mining, etc).

    For the selfish mining I know how it works but I don't understand how this could be feasible. When the "attacker" has found a block the probability to found another one and then reach all nodes building the longest chain seems to be very low. There are some alternative strategies?

    How this is related to a 51%? I mean, theoretically this behaviour is a way more difficult than a classic 51%...

    Also: is the purpose to gain a double reward and waste other minners' works or is useful for double spending?
