It's been public since about Jan 3 that the roadmap would be released on/around Jan 25. Here's the earliest mention I can find (it might not be the earliest mention, though): https://www.reddit.com/r/Stel

Crap. I'll reproduce the answer here, then: > Tl;dr: Stellar’s protocol (SCP) uses a decentralized state propagation where each node commits to a value if every node it deems trustworthy agrees while Ripple uses a supermajority vote

I credit my parents restricting my internet access for my career, in a very weird and roundabout way. My family got our first computer in 1998, when I was 13 years old. Nobody in my family was very computer literate at the time but they

Nevermind.. I see that it shows the % change over a 1h period.

by sjs382 9y ago
I tried it and the "percent change" seems to be off for me. I just ran it and it says BTC is -0.33%, even though CMC says it's +4.63%. Is it maybe showing a different period than 24h?

I understand that people with higher priority get served first. The question is how that will affect someone's real-world use.

by sjs382 9y ago
In the pricing, different tiers have different "priorities". It would be helpful to know what these "priorities" mean in the real world. If I submit a request as a low-priority user, should I expect a response in 1 seco

It's incredibly telling when someone makes a defense and comes off significantly worse as a result. He should have listened to his lawyer, but I'm glad he didn't.
