Is there any clarification on how this MSR whitelisting will be implemented by end users? Or is there just going to be the global "allow_writes" parameters? I'd assume too that even with that parameter set to on, programs acc

With the safe analogy, I swear there's precedent that, if the security is a physical key , then a court can compel the owner to produce it. But if the safe uses a combination , the court cannot compel its divulgence, since that would

The Bitcoin code is set to halve block rewards every 210,000 blocks. If a miner attempts to mine a block with a too-high reward, the network nodes will reject it as invalid.

I'd guess a lot of "hoarders" of BTC are in a similar boat to me: mined/bought some in the early days (pre-2013), and have recouped their initial investments and then some, and still had some left over. I'm not hold

Eh, even with Rust's static linking, that's not a guarantee that there will be no worries with deployment. Most SSL libraries in Rust, for instance, currently link to (Open/Libre)SSL dynamically. So you often can't take

Does it make much difference if a car can crumple or not when it's hitting a sack of flesh? I don't think my skin and bones are going to stand up well in either scenario.
