Eh, I tried unfortunately and it's not the same. Especially with video processing, my older Macbook Pro heats up very quickly when using Firefox vs Chrome. Firefox's history bar is still superior though

I wouldn't say PoS security has to be driven by the rich, but by whoever is staking, which people could be staking small like lets say 1 ETH total. The security is derived simply by the threat of having your staked ETH (however much) s

The point is it mitigates the on-chain attack surface which is still prevalent on PoW. Off-chain attacks are still possible for all consensus mechanism.

by eyezick 5y ago
I'd further add on to say PoS has the benefit of being able to eliminate bad actors unilaterally. You can't stop anyone from attacking a PoW chain over and over again. Attacking a PoS chain is much riskier as the attacker's s

Yup and accordingly PoS devs have explicitly stated this incentivizes stakers to be spread out, and not only on infrastructure but software, as there are multiple client implementations.

This article is innaccurate. Here is the tracking by Ernst & Young (court-appointed) providing all the public information about these developments. The latest report on 1 March 2019 mentions nothing about a cracked laptop. https:/

To add on to this, you can still improve the code quality while building on it by adding tests as you go, so you can have some solace and also sanity when testing your own code.

Reporting weight is based on amount of REP held, not just anyone can report and not all contributions are equal. https://www.augur.net/whitepaper.pdf covers the security assumptions pretty well.

I didn't, I was looking for a specific kind of work (Ethereum related) and it just so happened to be in Netherlands.

Depends on the specific implementation. Just because you do it on a blockchain doesn't mean you can't require people to show up to a polling center and sign transactions in person. With Ethereum, one way to do it is to make the vo

I wouldn't say Ether is trying to replace Bitcoin's use case (at least not yet). The real, better cryptocurrency will probably be a stable token running on Ethereum.

Good use cases exist because of the viability of the platform, not of their popularity. And even I meant to communicate financial "business logic", which is widely used in ICO's.
25.
by eyezick 9y ago
This statement is too broad. Current state of software is only appropriate for some use cases. Email/text messaging (like 4chan) are not practical uses. Financial business logic handling is a great use case.

CPU mining is so unprofitable, but I suppose with thousands of users..

Scalability too. You could even boast a crazier achievement like a full node capable of running on every smart-phone, but the potential is handcuffed as the network can only handle ~7 transactions a second.

And the ERC20 contract is here https://etherscan.io/address/0x18ce0b9fedceb66e9fb7783bbddb4... The site uses both contracts and both are linked on the Navbar FAQ.
