    BTC Something seems notably missing

    Something seems notably missing

    Libertarian candidate for U.S. President, Adam Kokesh, is now using BCH to buy products on Purse.io

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 01:15 PM PST

    From day one the plan was always to allow the blocks to become as big as they needed to be in order to allow low fee or free transactions.

    Thought r/btc might be interested in this mobile game I'm making

    I can see a shift in other subs mindset towards bitcoin maxis and its spreading

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 06:25 PM PST

    So this seems significant mind shift now. Other subs apart from r/btc are ridiculing bitcoin maxis and it's getting significant traction.

    Previously there have been more people supporting the bitcoin core and hating bitcoin cash but now everyone just dismisses the maxis. And we have memes starting to take traction "ok bitcoiner" etc.

    Bitcoin Cash Takes Florida Campus by Storm

    Another reason to switch to BCH

    Why Bitcoin Cash is the greatest top five cryptocurrency!

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 04:38 PM PST

    1. Bitcoin Core (BTC) < Bitcoin Cash

    BTC can only support 14 transactions per second. This creates very expensive fees to transact. Bitcoin Core also no longer supports instant 0 confirmation transactions because of a feature added called Replace by Fee. The Lightning Network cannot scale Bitcoin because it still requires on-chain payment channels while being extremely cumbersome to use. For a number of reasons, Lighting Network will never ever be capable of scaling any cryptocurrency to global use. Lightning Network is also completely inoperable and is in the early stages of development. BTC cannot function as a world currency. And it will never upgrade or change because most of the developers are bought out by the Bilderberg Pedo Epstein Big Banker funded Blockstream corporation whose mission is to destroy Bitcoin.

    1. Ethereum < Bitcoin Cash

    ETH can only process 25tps. Ethereum broke scaleability by shortening confirmation times to 12 seconds, thus causing the processing of big blocks to become impossible. The transactions cannot propagate to the other miners quickly enough, thus causing a high block orphan (failure) rate and destroying Ethereum's reliability. This is why Satoshi created 10 minute block times.

    This high latency creates a natural block size limit around 100 transactions per second or less. Ethereum is now starting to have fees like BTC. They are working on some speed increases like Sharding and Proof of Stake, but these will only bring transactions to be a maximum of a few thousand tps. In order to support huge blocks, the confirmation times need to be raised, which will likely never happen.

    1. XRP < Bitcoin Cash

    Ripple and XRP are not designed to replace fiat currency entirely. They are designed to create an easy way for banks and people to transact across borders and between different fiat currencies. Also, the entire architecture is centralized and much of the coins are held by Ripple, a company. The market cap is thus falsely inflated. Almost nobody uses XRP as digital money or as payment, it is mostly a digital asset traded like a stock.

    1. Bitcoin Cash (The Real Bitcoin)

    Instant, fast transactions with extremely low fees. Works on the original genius design of Bitcoin (SHA256, 10 minute blocks, no block size limit), with many scaling and speed improvements. Already supports 100+ transactions per second and the architecture has been tested to thousands of transactions per second. Is on the road to supporting all 7 billion people on Earth on chain by using huge gigabyte size blocks. Bitcoin Cash has a huge ecosystem of apps and adoption already working, along with privacy tools like CashShuffle. Has the ability to change the course of human history in a profoundly positive direction.

    1. Litecoin < Bitcoin Cash

    Has the same scaling issue as Bitcoin Core. They will only allow 1 MB blocks and Lightning Network, with blocks that are 4 times faster. Thus, it can only scale to 4 times the speed of Bitcoin Core (7*4 = 28 tps). It does make sense to shorten the confirmation times if you are going to keep the blocks artificially small, so, in my opinion, Litecoin is 4 times better than BTC, and infinitely better than BTC right now due to low fees.

    You could keep going for the rest of the top coins, but none of them have the market cap, infrastructure, adoption, or name recognition of Bitcoin Cash.

    Do you guys agree with my assessment?

    An extremely abusive individual in the community

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 11:56 PM PST

    u/Shadoworson

    "I apologize in advanced. I'm going to be rude, I really do not see any way around it (and because I am just so fucking tired of these "Hi r/btc I'm a fucking dumb ass and did not do my due diligence, please make me feel better by telling me I'm not a stupid fuck." posts like yours.)

    How did you lose anything?

    (I sent BCH to a BTC address.)

    Ya... this is what I am not understanding. (I'm about to be really rude, sorry). You obviously have the ability to read, so how did make this mistake? Did you forget that Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash are not the same token?

    (The BTC and BCH Legacy address looks the same - sending BCH to a BTC address is technically possible.)

    BCH Legacy addresses ARE BCH addresses. The CashAddr is just a different format so (sorry) stupid people can "feel" safer when they see a different address format. Notice I mentioned "feel safer". I used that term because it's only a feeling, you're not really any safer.

    You effectively sent fiat to the wrong mailing address because you did not perform due diligence.

    Sorry you lost your tokens, maybe this will teach you to pay attention?"

    And this is just the start of this individuals abusive behavior. If you go through his account, you'll immediately see lots of trolling and harassment of other redditors.

    He constantly fights with other people in BCH too: https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/e3xu9u/i_just_made_a_21_million_club_for_bch/f97aif7

    He also calls people "moron" and "scumbag": https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/e2wr9i/vitalik_buterin_to_core_maxi_ok_bitcoiner/f92cekg

    And he harasses redditors until they delete their accounts: https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/e1ksse/new_sockpuppet_account_detected_dethtrader/f8qd41x

    It really seems like he tries to hide his abusive edge and make it sound politically correct, but it's clear that the way he talks to people is condescending and alienating.

    US Arrests Ethereum Developer For Training North Koreans To Evade Sanctions

    What do Ross supporters believe about the DA saying when they grabbed the laptop he was signed in as an SR admin?

    Posted: 01 Dec 2019 12:33 AM PST

    Ross says they made it up and he was Never DPR. I'd believe it. But still. If, best case he had moved on and had nothing to do with the site but still just had access, he would have known what it had turned into.

    If I started a website then later found out people were using it to arrange murders for hire, I would not just ignore it and hope it went away.

    Best case, Ross knew and did nothing.

    Worst case, Ross was DRP all along and this is just a defense strategy.

    This Week In Bitcoin Cash, November 24th - 30th

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 10:12 AM PST

    We need a great article from a GREAT blogger. Will pay in Bitcoin Cash.

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 10:31 AM PST

    We see that many newcomers to read.cash struggle with becoming good at blogging. Writing about stuff that might not be interesting at all, unfocused, writing an article an be disappointed that nobody read it or tipped... We don't have any expertise in that either. Barely words together joining, in order correct occasionally.

    So, we want to find someone who's already successful at blogging, who can explain in an article or series of articles all the important stuff to our newcomers: how to select a topic that interests the audience, how to deal with the writer's block, how to keep the reader interested, how to attract the audience to your articles (promotion).

    Does anyone know any great proven bloggers? Or maybe someone IS a great successful blogger... and is up for a challenge?

    If the article is great as expected - it'll be recommended to every newcomer to the site, earning the tips forever! (offer valid while the universe lasts... and our site... whatever ends sooner)

    Just in case - we do want someone GREAT, but we're a small startup, so keep your budget request reasonable, we're not a Media Empire :) and be prepared to prove that you know what you're going to be talking about.

    (Also if you know somebody and will ping them or you can tweet/FB/whatever this call for authors - we would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!)

    FAQ from Merchants about Accepting Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

    Posted: 30 Nov 2019 08:32 AM PST

    block time

    Posted: 01 Dec 2019 01:53 AM PST

    so the block time for BTC (and BCH ?) is 10 minutes right ? And generally you'll wait some blocks for confirmation.

    In IRL situations, how would one go to a grocerie and then wait 10 minutes for the payment to be confirmed ?

    Or are there other options ?

    Thx
