I'm not pumping anything. I haven't shilled for anything. I've never told you to buy anything. But if you believe ETH is the original chain, you're simply wrong -- and technically you are actually the one shilling ETH.

You've claimed ETC was the fork. It wasn't. ETH was the fork, ETC is the original chain.

ETH was a hard fork with the sole purpose of rolling back the DAO fuckup. Your comments are nonsensical and completely uninformed on this topic.

by jki275 6y ago
ETC is the original chain. The current ETH was the forced hard fork to roll back the fuckup that was the DAO.

As a daily brew user, I've never heard of that problem.

I've spent many hours staring at a radar scope, and fixing and maintaining those radars.

Eth costs 40 bucks per transaction, tezos costs something like ten cents.

reduces radar signature. The higher you stick up out of the water, the further away you can be detected by surface radar.

You could use a smart contract on the Tezos blockchain to do it easily enough. Might not be smart -- volatility cuts both ways and things don't always go up...

It's a fork. By definition.

Vitalik and company have zero history in the proof of stake game, and what little security history they do have is pretty much awful. So I'm not too worried about what they have to say about things. If it's not something he copi

Which chain was left as the result of that fork? If the earlier chain is abandoned, then the new chain by default becomes the valid chain.

The miners are holding the original chain. They have a massive incentive to do so, as the forked chain Vitalik creating puts them completely out of business. Vitalik et al are trying to force a fork, as they did when they left the original

What are you talking about? The fork that left ETC as the original chain was a rollback of the chain that destroyed the concept of its immutability for the purpose of fixing a massive financial mistake. There were no other chains left as a

That’s not how it works. The people who hold the majority of the stake are the majority, not the minority.

ETH is a fork, ETC was the original chain. ETH 2.0 is a proposed fork. Describing things accurately should be the norm.

No, mining is gone in a proof of stake chain.

by jki275 6y ago
Vitalik is trying to fork ETH and create a new coin that is POS. The miners are trying to keep it from forking.
320.
by jki275 6y ago
Sure it will. It will just involve 51% of the stake pools instead of 51% of the miners.
321.
by jki275 6y ago
Not with ADA or Tezos. Bottom line, ADA is a proof of stake chain. It is upgraded in place based on proposals and consensus of stake pools. Same thing with Tezos. ADA hasn't fully rolled out all the features of the ETH blockchain yet

I believe that was disabled in the protocol long ago because it was deemed to be a security risk.
323.
by jki275 6y ago
Precisely. Vitalik wants to fork ETH (as he's done before when they rolled back the DAO hack) to make a new version of ETH that is proof of stake. The miners, as I've predicted here before, disagree, because this fork obliterates

Ha! C++ is not going away, probably not ever but certainly not any time in our lifetimes. There is a LOT of code in C++ out there. I write in it every day. There are a lot of open source project written in C++. C++ isn't even that h

You still have to have a ton of power. You won't generate all that outside of a power grid unless you own your own hydro dams or something.
326.
by jki275 6y ago
That's technically true. But. A 50% attack has the problem that an attacker with enough hash power to do it has enough hash power to simply mine on chain legitimately and create blocks and get 50% of the block reward and make tons of

by jki275 6y ago
Bitcoin and Ethereum are both legacy blockchains. There are many contenders. XTZ and ADA are both technologically far beyond what BTC or ETH can ever be.
328.
by jki275 6y ago
Most miners are on hydro, located right next to the dams, and probably colluding with them for either zero or near zero cost. Similar advantages to nuclear I'd imagine.

hahahahahahahaha https://thenationalpulse.com/breaking/cpac-nazi-rune-stage-l... Is it still a nazi symbol if a leftist company created it? Or should we apply logic and not call them nazis either?

No, some jackasses who are not "a part of the party" might use some image on some flag that I've never even seen with a rune nobody of any importance had ever heard of since WWII until yesterday. That's the fact of thing
