    BTC Privacy isn't free! Help support CashShuffle!


    Privacy isn't free! Help support CashShuffle!

    Posted: 08 Apr 2019 05:35 PM PDT

    If you think CashShuffle is a net positive for BCH (or crypto in general) and you'd like to help the developers who graciously sacrificed their sweat, blood, and money to bring it to us, please consider giving some coins to the official CashShuffle donation address.

    A well known CashShuffle developer spent upfront 25 000$ for the necessary security audit and 1750$ to have the cashshuffle.com finalized.

    Another important company in the industry sent 10 000$.

    A generous miner personally gave 5000$ of his own funds.

    The rest of the developers & the testing group sent another 2300$ all together.

    So far we are about 9450$ short of covering all the expenses. Please consider donating if you are in position to help.

    Every penny in excess of those expenses will go towards developing the new features on our roadmap like ShuffleUp (safe coin consolidation) , and dust shuffling. We will be posting the full roadmap in the coming weeks.

    The donation address can be found on https://cashshuffle.com/

    Thanks everyone

    EDIT: Thank you to everyone that has contributed so far. You folks are the reason p2p digital cash is unstoppable.

    Xthinner Now Working with Bitcoin Cash Mainnet Blocks: 99.54% Compression

    By the power of CTOR! Xthinner is now working with BCH mainnet blocks

    Posted: 08 Apr 2019 03:32 AM PDT

    A few hours ago, I fixed the last showstopping bug in my Xthinner code and got it running between two of my ABC full nodes on mainnet. One node serves as a bridge to the rest of the world, receiving Compact Blocks and transmitting Xthinner. The other is connected to no other nodes except this bridge.

    The first block transmitted by Xthinner was #577,310. My nodes had just started when that block was published, so it was transmitted with only 24 transactions in mempool out of 2865 total in the block. It worked nonetheless. Xthinner has worked on every block since then, with no failures, and with no block taking more than 1.5 networking round trips. Most non-tiny blocks have gotten about 99.0% compression after fetching missing transactions, or about 99.3% before fetching. In comparison, Compact Blocks usually gets about 96-97% compression. Eight blocks have been complete on arrival without any missing transaction fetching (0.5 round trips), and 24 blocks have required a round trip to fetch missing transactions.

    I will probably make an alpha code release soon so that people can play around with it. The code still has some known bugs and vulnerabilities, though, so don't run it on anything you want to stay running. There's still a lot of work to be done before the code is of high enough quality to be merged into Bitcoin ABC, so don't get too excited.

    Here's the best-performing block so far:

    2019-04-08 09:27:53.076818 received: xtrblk (1660 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 09:27:53.077210 Filling xtrblk with mempool size 841 2019-04-08 09:27:53.077644 xtrblk: 841 tx, 1 prefilled 2019-04-08 09:27:53.077707 Received complete xthinner block: 000000000000000002f914b0c6afb568bec86b9a5166a5023f466c5ee7100e90. 2019-04-08 09:27:53.136257 UpdateTip: new best=000000000000000002f914b0c6afb568bec86b9a5166a5023f466c5ee7100e90 height=577332 version=0x20800000 log2_work=87.837579 tx=269896356 date='2019-04-08 09:27:30' progress=1.000000 cache=10.6MiB(79763txo) warning='40 of last 100 blocks have unexpected version' 

    This was a 841 tx, 363 kB block transmitted in 1660 bytes. That's 99.54% compression or 15.79 bits/tx. Uncoincidentally, this was also one of the largest blocks so far, with 23 minutes elapsed since the prior block.

    Bigger blocks get better compression because the header, coinbase, and checksum specification overhead is a smaller proportion of the whole, and sometimes also because the Xthinner algorithm can more consistently omit the initial bytes of the TXID.

    Sizes of the xtrblk messages:

    Sizes of the fetched missing transactions:

    2019-04-08 06:17:48.410703 received: xtrtxn (842930 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 06:34:40.221133 received: xtrtxn (5691 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 06:50:25.291309 received: xtrtxn (517 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:04:02.029652 received: xtrtxn (3461 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:09:44.604922 received: xtrtxn (744 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:15:32.339450 received: xtrtxn (1155 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:17:25.984684 received: xtrtxn (3337 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:19:38.948412 received: xtrtxn (654 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:21:22.100418 received: xtrtxn (3510 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:37:20.574477 received: xtrtxn (3990 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:38:41.107558 received: xtrtxn (519 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 07:52:40.204659 received: xtrtxn (2364 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 08:01:30.240842 received: xtrtxn (275 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 08:26:06.214200 received: xtrtxn (274 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 08:39:05.005097 received: xtrtxn (273 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 08:53:57.340233 received: xtrtxn (514 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 08:54:44.034397 received: xtrtxn (1243 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 09:04:55.542438 received: xtrtxn (420 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 09:39:21.528842 received: xtrtxn (811 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 09:49:18.075155 received: xtrtxn (274 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 09:52:09.950762 received: xtrtxn (10478 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 10:05:35.193791 received: xtrtxn (8248 bytes) peer=0 2019-04-08 10:12:40.762645 received: xtrtxn (1741 bytes) peer=0 

    As a reminder: Xthinner does not affect storage, RAM, or CPU requirements for full nodes in any way, and has very little effect on total network traffic, which is dominated by tx announcements and historical block uploads. Xthinner's compression only affects block propagation speed. Block propagation is the code path that is most sensitive to performance and latency for keeping Bitcoin decentralized while scaling, and has long been a sore point, so this optimization is worthwhile. But its effects are limited to that code path.

    Part of the bch hodl gang now.

    Posted: 08 Apr 2019 03:55 PM PDT

    Sold some of my litecoin for bch, I still like ltc and I am sure it will do well. I like dgb as well and own it. That being said, I love what I am seeing and feeling more and more everyday from bch. Amaury Sechet is brilliant, lots of cool bch projects, pushing the boundaries of innovation, and I have a very good feeling about it. I think bitcoin maximalists will be taught a lesson in economics and morality during this next run, I have come to the conclusion that this project will actually catch up to btc someday. The world would be different if btc was allowed to scale, bch is the realization of this potential.

    Which is the best platform/website/app to trade btc in the UK?

    Posted: 08 Apr 2019 10:19 PM PDT

    I'm now starting to want to trade in btc and have about £800 to invest but was wondering where I should go to trade? I looked at Wirex, CEX.IO and changelly but all of them have negative reviews that are putting me off so I would like to know what is your go to platform and which one you would personally recommend for a beginner thanks.
