    @Bitcoin: "Last week: "How dare people resort to strong-arm tactics to silence @hodlonaut? This is against the spirit of crypto!" This week: "@jack please shut down the @Bitcoin account! We cannot tolerate his message! Reeeeee!""

    @Bitcoin: "Wow, @jack still conspiring with BTC maximalists to reduce the influence of my account, and still ignoring my attempts at communication. Very inappropriate for the CEO of Twitter, esp considering the conflict of interest w/ his investment in @lightning"

    Twitter CEO Asks What Should be Done with @Bitcoin Account in Private Message - CoinSpice

    Posted: 20 Apr 2019 08:00 PM PDT

    Let's not forget that the CEO of Twitter @Jack has a bad reputation for censoring people on his platform even outside the Crytpo space and now the Coretards are happy that this guy supports LN. He's now trying to reduce @Bitcoin influence.

    Everyone should change their twitter name / avatar to match @Bitcoin in solidarity with the idea of decentralized, free, censorship-free speech that Bitcoin stands for.

    McCormack: when the white paper was written, there was no second layer, there was no lightning and there was no 1mb blocksize cap. So to accuse Rizun of dishonesty (propaganda) when calling large blocks and low fees the original plan, makes you a brainwashed, ignorant, rude man.

    Posted: 20 Apr 2019 04:40 PM PDT

    Yes brainwashed!

    Yet, Rizun saying that he didn't know what the situation with S2X and Garzik was, is "whitewashing an important part of history".

    I'm 20 minutes in to this podcast and your rudeness and ignorance is palpable.

    To be sovereign over your onchain funds requires one thing: that the coins be in a wallet whose keys you exclusively control

    Posted: 21 Apr 2019 12:28 AM PDT

    There's a lot of disinformation out there about needing to run a "full node" in order to be "sovereign" over your coins.

    It's balderdash. Sovereign means to be in complete control, autonomous. You control your coins fully simply by having control over your private key. For example if you create a garden variety paper wallet for your funds, you are in complete control of your money. By contrast, if your coins are on exchange or in a payment channel that is shared with another party, then you do not have complete control or autonomy over the coins. Only onchain coins offer true sovereignty.

    To clear up another misunderstanding in advance: SPV wallets do not require trust. Using an SPV wallet, a user can trustlessly query the network until he is satisfied his transaction is included in the chain with the most work. All the user is required to download are the block headers. Using the block headers the user can prove for himself that his transaction was included in the most-proof-of-work chain.

    To summarize:

    To be truly sovereign (have complete control) over your coins they must be in a wallet whose keys you control exclusively (ie not on exchange or in a joint-custody transaction) and you do not need to download the entire blockchain to verify your transactions.

    The following details why, as an anarchist, I am a supporter of BCH and not an unthinking BTC or BSV member of the herd.

    Posted: 20 Apr 2019 03:57 PM PDT

    [On the authority of specialists] I listen to them freely and with all the respect merited by their intelligence, their character, their knowledge, reserving always my incontestable right of criticism and verification. I do not content myself with consulting a single specific authority, but consult several. I compare their opinions and choose that which seems to me most accurate. But I recognize no infallible authority, even in quite exceptional questions; consequently, whatever respect I may have for the honesty and the sincerity of such or such an individual, I have absolute faith in no one. Such a faith would be fatal to my reason, to my liberty, and even to the success of my undertakings; it would immediately transform me into a stupid slave and an instrument of the will and interests of another.

    ....

    This same reason prohibits me, then, from recognizing a fixed, constant, and universal authority-figure, because there is no universal man, no man capable of grasping in that wealth of detail, without which the application of science to life is impossible, all the sciences, all the branches of social life. And if such a universality was ever realized in a single man, and if be wished to take advantage of it in order to impose his authority upon us, it would be necessary to drive that man out of society, because his authority would inevitably reduce all the others to slavery and imbecility. I do not think that society ought to maltreat men of genius as it has done hitherto; but neither do I think it should enrich them too much, nor, and this above all, grant them any privileges or exclusive rights; and that for three reasons: first, because it would often mistake a charlatan for a man of genius; then, because, through such a system of privileges, it could transform even a true man of genius into a charlatan, demoralize and stupefy him; and, finally, because it would give itself a despot.

    Prediction: one year from now, BSV will not be a top 100 crypto by market cap (it is currently #14). Its security has become too weak.

    Why is Bitcoin Cash NOT trading above 0.10 BCH/BTC?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2019 05:05 PM PDT

    From tx, adoption, capacity, tokens, smart contracts, new features, etc etc etc it looks like 0.10 is the low side no matter what metric you evaluate.

    We're building an adult live cam website powered by Bitcoin Cash!

    Posted: 20 Apr 2019 09:55 AM PDT

    at the suggestion of /u/MemoryDealers (in this reply) we're repurposing cointube.cash into an adult cam website where you can earn Bitcoin Cash for streaming your private parts and tip to your favorite camwhores.

    ​

    What are the features?

    • Private shows and goals
    • Tipping and earning Bitcoin Cash
    • Chatting
    • That's it, it's a cam website

    ​

    When will it be ready?

    We're estimating the deadline to be 28 May, right on the Bitcoin Cash fork. We've done some trials using the streaming server and a Bitcoin ABC node and all there's left is the web design and functionality cruft. Message us if you're interested in developing.

    ​

    Technical details

    Cointube is a Node.JS web app tied to a Red5 streaming server that relays live cam data from your panel to all the voyeurs on your page, as well as a Websocket server that provides channels and private messaging functionality between you and the camwhore. The CTH Simpledger token will be used to tip and withdraw your earnings. We're also planning a WebRTC direct streaming functionality in the future (to remove the server requirement between you and the entertainer)

    ​

    Fundraiser / Investing

    We're giving away `CTH` SLP tokens in exchange of Bitcoin Cash which will go towards development and marketing of this. You can send BCH to the address bitcoincash:qqp24cxuaakc9xulg99h4u0e9cvrxpl0cuhltpfq2d and receive CTH SLP tokens as a thank you for helping us realize this project which you can trade when it gets listed on an exchange.

    1 CTH token = 0.000001 BCH
