Re: [ANN][PIVX] - PRIVATE INSTANT VERIFIED TRANSACTION - POS 2.0 - ZEROCOIN PROTOCOL

I remember when Dash launched it had to stop and relaunch a few days later due to problems. Now it is one of the most successful coins ever and people that held made a killing. So I would not read to much into this price correction PIVX has at the moment. 

I am buying more while the price is so low.  As a practical matter, PIVX is the 1st mover with POS/zero knowledge proof protocol plus with its self funding mechanism in my opinion makes it one of the most viable competitors for the long run.

Japan seems to be at the forefront of mainstream adoption. Too bad the US blew the chance to lead the space.

Whaleclub charges 12% interest A DAY on BTCUSD margin trading plus a large spread. I would never trade that pair there. I do trade gold there because the fees are reasonable on it.

It would only have to double about 9 times so very possible. Doubles 1 time each year. plus consider halving.

The transaction fee issue will have to be revisited multiple times over the years as bitcoin price increases. And it will be fixed each time.

Re: Ethereum is Now the Most Secure Public Blockchain, Overtaking Bitcoin
by

on 21/05/2017, 19:54:21 UTC
Nobody can quickly add a few changes as it suites them and I doubt if the same can be said about Ethereum.  Tongue

I think more people would regard that a bonus than they're willing to admit. It's cool to say you love decentralisation until it starts to impact on you, then you'll fall into the arms of the nearest smooth talker who'll slide your panties off and centralise you before you can hit your rape alarm.

Decentralisation is an inconvenience, commitment and long game that eventually pays off in spades when you sit back and think about it. Most people aren't strategic or disciplined enough to realise that.
Anything of which the rules can be modified, is by definition centralized because a central entity could decide upon the modification, and could get the collusion of a majority over it.

I disagree.  A decentralised system like Bitcoin is similar to a democracy in that users can signal support for any changes that they want. 

You could look at it like proportional representation except each "party" is a mining pool, and the mining pool have a naturally created threshold for being relevant which is a high enough percentage of the hashrate for people to mine there. 

Even in most major PR-based democracies, the country ends up being a collection of just a few different parties with different proposals, often claiming to have the same goals while having different ways to get there.  Eventually either a majority Parliament is formed in these democracies, or there are problems which eventually have to result in a coalition (a compromise or a chain split in Bitcoin's case).

Bitcoin is very comparable to these democracies and can therefore change while still, in theory, being decentralised.

If bitcoin was truly decentralized, we would not have the scaling issue. 1 bitcoin should equal 1 vote not hashing power.

You act like greed is a bad thing. Greed stimulates completion and encourages innovation. That is what capitalism is built on. That is why bthee are so many altcoins and that is why the crypto space is growing.

Crypto will definitely replace conventional paper money. Every government is already investigating it. Govs will have their version which will suck but then we will have our real money crypto like bitcoin.

POS sues a fraction of the electricity as bitcoin which is one of the reasons it is so popular. That said as long as there is profit in bitcoin the cost of electricity does not matter.
