    Finally switched to using BCH for my bitpay payments!

    Posted: 10 Apr 2019 10:17 AM PDT

    I wanted to do that for a while with these filthy fees (thanks u/nullc ), but didn't want the trouble of having to register on exchanges. I saw sideshift.ai recommended, but the site requires you to get a "test pilot code" which seemed annoying. But I just discovered the bitcoin.com wallet allows me to do btc->bch exchange via sideshift without any annoying code. So I went ahead and swapped my tiny "food money stash" into bch at last, and will use this in the future! Thanks to Roger and the developers involved in bch, bitcoin.com wallet and sideshift for making this possible and letting me avoid the shitshow of btc.

    Blocks Should Not Be Full

    Posted: 10 Apr 2019 03:01 PM PDT

    It recently came to my attention that some people still don't understand the market for transaction processing on the Bitcoin network, which has led them to the conclusion that blocks should and must be full in order for the network to sustain itself. Ruben Somsen claims, in the linked Twitter thread, that:

    Block space is given to the highest bidder - if nobody bids, it's practically free. If you think mass replicated immutable blockchain data is at least worth something, then it logically follows that blocks WILL be full.

    Unfortunately, he misses a key point. Miners set the minimum acceptable fees, always. To extend Ruben's auction analogy, miners are quite free to set a "reserve price" on bids for block space. They can do this without full blocks. If nobody meets a miner's reserve price for block space, guess what happens? The miner mines an empty block. This is absolutely essential to understand when thinking about the supply and demand dynamics for transaction processing and block size.

    Unfortunately, Ruben does not understand this. Therefore, he thinks that the only way to make people pay for their Bitcoin transactions is to limit the block size with a cap. I have tried to educate him and others in the small block camp, but they refuse to consider that they might be wrong and have an open mind. They prefer to stick to places where they can benefit from censorship of ideas they find distasteful. It's their loss.

    We do not need full blocks for Bitcoin to sustain itself, even after the block reward drops to 0 after we're all dead. We simply need miners who are able to set minimum transaction fees. And, guess what, we already have that! Miners, who determine Nakamoto Consensus, can and should be able to dynamically adjust the size of their blocks in order for supply to meet demand naturally and unconstrained by supply caps. I can get behind block size caps that are based in technological limitations, but that is not what the 1MB size/4MB weight cap in Bitcoin is about. If nothing else, Bitcoin Cash has demonstrated that the emperor has no clothes.

    Vinny Lingham: “Many people believe that the crypto winter is over. Here are some of my unfiltered thoughts on this topic. Charts & technicals aside, I don’t believe this rally is sustainable for one reason: The market has not yet decoupled the various crypto assets from [BTC]”

    Calling on Roger Ver to do his part to expose Craig Wright as a perjurer

    Posted: 10 Apr 2019 08:15 AM PDT

    Despite previously apparently believing that Craig Wright was Satoshi, Roger Ver appears to have changed his mind.

    The thing is, Roger's potentially uniquely qualified to prove beyond doubt that Craig Wright lied under oath.

    In a sworn affidavit from a 2013 lawsuit, Craig claimed to control certain addresses, including 16cou7Ht6WjTzuFyDBnht9hmvXytg6XdVT.

    There is significant evidence that this address is actually owned by Roger Ver. I won't go into great detail here, but suffice it to say that the MtGox leaks alone make it nearly certain.

    Roger is likely capable of providing practically undeniable cryptographic proof that Craig lied under oath.

    Will he do his part and sign a message attesting to that fact?

    Banned from /r/BitcoinDiscussions after 2 comments ever

    Posted: 10 Apr 2019 11:58 AM PDT

    https://www.removeddit.com/r/BitcoinDiscussion/comments/bbkjvu/blocks_will_be_full_block_space_will_have_to_be/

    • Dude starts the thread but in bold writes: "NOTE: I'd like to request that we don't turn this into a debate about increasing the block size. It's a fine topic to discuss, but let's keep it separate from this thread."

    Remind you of the Bitcoin Scaling debate when Blockstream was leading the charge? Nothing is off topic except discussing acutal scaling solutions at a 'scaling' conference.

    • Dude PM's me using the new Reddit chat feature to tell me I'm banned. Also throw's in a /u/bashco passive agreesive jab of "I hope you're not having a bad day"

    • Dude then deletes his own thread... it's not even on his subreddit anymore.

    Censorship oh my. I didn't even bring up increasing big blocks and he banned me.

    edit: thread is now back up on /r/BitcoinDiscussion most likely after being notified of this thread. I'm still banned and comments deleted.

    What's going on with all of the garbage articles coming out of CCN recently?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2019 01:12 PM PDT

    These aren't even the stupidest I've found, but I thought they used to put out some legitimate work. I've seen nothing but low quality shit like this recently -

    https://www.ccn.com/beware-bitcoin-might-blindly-chase-the-dow-into-the-next-financial-crisis

    https://www.ccn.com/stock-market-looks-recession-proof-so-whats-holding-back-the-dow

    Do they just only care about their quantity of content? It says in their about section that they're an "unbiased financial news site" and "clearly mark all Op-eds," but I'm still seeing articles twice as self-contradictory and off-topic/baseless as this on a daily basis.
