Re: Louisd’or(codename)- first anonymous PoS, CN-based currency (technical review)
Hello!
Im glad to announce our project, that we were working on last weeks and keep working on. This is CryptoNote-based currency with first anonymous PoS engine(that use PoW as well).

CN based POS!?
Finally!
Имеется идея и ТЗ, нужна архитектура и код. Если крайне кратко : в существующий протокол (или протокол написанный с нуля) криптовалюты вплести новые функции. Интересный проект, задача нетривиальная, просто взять и поменять переменные в коде существующих валют не получится, требуемый функционал еще нигде не реализован.
Контакты - лс. Знания поля криптовалют обязательно, опыт разработки и управления проектами обязателен. Работа на фулл тайм, оплата поэтапная.

Так думаете?) Мне кажется, что и площадок подходящих нет, да и путаны не принимают биткойн в оплату.
Только вчера читал, что в Голландии появились проститутки, принимающие биткоины.
Так что возможно все еще впереди)
Да, я бы принял такую позицию, что возможно все впереди, только вот опять же вчерашняя новость снова повалила курс Биткойна http://ria.ru/world/20140127/991638281.html
По сути, автор демонстрирует, несостоятельность биткойна...
Это он просто неудачную площадку для поиска поставщика услуги подобрал

По сути, автор демонстрирует, несостоятельность биткойна...И это действительно так, из-за высоких скачков курса он крайне неудобен, поскольку создается огромный риск потери своих денег. Будущее за валютами с меньшей волатильностью.
Но пост крайне интересен

More than likely the seller didn't care about losing a pizza. What are they worth? a few £/$ or what ever currency you handle. But, think of it. 10,000 Bitcoins sounds a lot. Even if they weren't worth much back then. It still sounds like a lot. Well let's put it this way. 10,000 sounds like it could be more valuable than a pizza. Also, the pizza seller probably knew that Bitcoin was going to be popular among geeks. Which would make the value of it rise. So he probably knew he had a chance of cashing it out with a little profit. But, obviously Bitcoin has become much more than he hoped for. It is popular among non geeks and high up professions.
At the currency going rate of 10,000 Bitcoins. A pizza sold for $966,000. Is that a world record?

In that case he had to count that he would sell BitCoins or will exchange them for something. What gave to him such grounds? What facts? Prevalence among geeks? But why them to buy his Bitcoins, they can just mine it)
The pizza transaction was an artificial construct where both parties perfectly well understood that at this point in time there was no market for Bitcoin. They have colluded to create an artificial transaction using newborn currency in which they both believed (because anyone with a brain after reading the paper could see that it is and genius and elegant system that could work).
They have artificiality bootstrapped market for trading goods and services for Bitcoin by demonstratively performing the first public transaction of this kind. The rest is history.

So why did they think that this artificial transaction will be important?
A we can see here http://newlibertystandard.wetpaint.com/page/2009+Exchange+Rate ... befor the pizza BitCoin alredy had price. So why some one started to give money for bitcoin?)
It was not "trading electricity cost for BTC". It was scientific research, trying whether the system works.
Probably on computers running anyway. They just generated BTC while doing what they _wanted_ to do anyway, building and using and testing the system, out of curiosity and believing in the idea, not because they thought "that BTC gonna be worth my power cost". They just generated BTC in the process of figuring it all out, and afterwards, they had something other could not copy without at least a little effort.

But there is still no answer.
Okay if we think that they did not spend electricity why someone started to BUY those bitcoins?) And then gave something real for bitcoins?
Right now I feel like I'm writing your paper for you 
Oh no ) While those who participated in early transactions won't tell the word, it is difficult to make it.
The pizza purchase was not the first transaction to assign monetary value to BTC, by the time that happened (2010) it was already well established that BTC had monetary value.
People were already buying/selling for nonzero dollar values in 2009; lacking a true exchange with order book, the bid/ask was usually based (rightly or wrongly, you decide) around the marginal cost of generating new coins via mining.

Thank you!
Unfortunately I couldn't find participants of the earliest transactions with bitkoin yet. (bitcoin for dollars, bitcoin for goods and services).
But it is tiny nuance.
Why the first miners decided to spend electricity and to get bitcoin? There has to be a reason why they decided that these expenditure are justified... that is a question
why he believed is the same why anyone else believes it first time. everyone supporting or simply using bitcoin went exactly through the same thing as the first guy. at some point you simply see it as a valuable innovation while no one knows exactly how much single unit values precisely, every single trade is either confirming current 'established' value or rediscovering new one.
Yes, and it is interesting - why it estimated as "a valuable innovation"?
Also someone were ready to give for bitcoins real goods or to render a real services.Yes. Everything is right! ... but there are many things become rare on the Earth (Old cans for exaple). But nevertheless, he chooses to receive Bitkoins for the pizza. He could exchange this pizza for a tail of a squirrel, or shit of a whale or images of someones fingerprints (this is also rare things)
But, what attracted in idea of bitcoin not in idea of ... ?

None of these other things are 'scarce'.
The person who accepted the Bitcoin believed that it would become valuable one day.
Yes! were there reasons to trust in it? were there preconditions? Why he belived?)
