I don't think Satoshi Nakamoto is as well-known as Michael Jackson. Nobody knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is where I live. If they did, I'd be surprised.

bitcoind is not designed to scale at all. Just look at the transaction malleability issue that has been terrorizing the exchanges. This has to do with them writing shitty wallet software to overcome bitcoind's limitations. We need more

Bitcore is designed to interface with bitcoind, so you're wrong [1] It is designed to run server side on node.js or client side in a web browser and interect with a trusted bitcoin node (i.e. a bitcoind instance) 1. http:

Not exactly. The buggy wallet software, used by these exchanges, identifies transactions by their hash. Even if one of the duplicates is confirmed, the buggy wallet still thinks the other is a new transaction, because it has a different has

I see e-ink readers, such as the Kindle, being used as a POS system for merchants. Linux installed with this running. It's awesome because it's super lightweight and can be installed on virtually any device without even having to

From my understanding this is essentially a web-browser, but instead of downloading the HTML/CSS/JS of the site from a single HTTP server, it uses the BitTorrent protocol to download the HTML from a variety of different nodes. So

You obviously haven't clicked on the link. P2Pool requires too many resources (a full-node). Whereas most of current mining, ran by trusted third-party pools, can even be done off of a raspberry pi, which requires much less resources.

I'm very interested in this project as it essentially can be used as a currency the same way that Bitcoin is, without any mining required. It uses the concept of trust from a variety of different nodes. If a node acts dishonestly it lo

No IP address is saved in the block-chain. You would need to trust the source of this IP listing service, and still you wouldn't be able to actually prove people's real IP address if they were using systems like TOR to send money.
