His twitter is amazingly double speakish today. Don't tell him though, as he'll block you from retweeting him.

prefect posted:to be honest, 0.1% of mastercard's traffic has got to be pretty sizable yes but for a system crowing about bringing the downfall of the dollar and CCs it illustrates the magnitude of the delusion. Bitcoin might have been an interesting way of offering an alternative payment system. There might even have been some validity to the 'borderless' aspect (though that would depend on how the regulations on it were implemented), but any chance of it ever becoming a broadly used system is smothered in the crib by the insane ideology coiners have married to their system.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:stupid question but what's the point of having a hash if it can't be relied on it's a design flaw. the transaction ids were obviously supposed to be able to uniquely identify a transaction, but the protocol spec wasn't quite tight enough, so it's possible to generate different hashes for the same transaction by swapping the inputs around in a real financial environment this would have been fixed very quickly. but this is bitcoin, so the developers just put a workaround for the problem in the reference implementation instead of actually fixing the protocol itself

Let's be honest... does bitcoin have any true competitors we should be looking at or focusing on? (self.Bitcoin) submitted 7 minutes ago by IceTurtle4 [–]couttsphotog 1 point 1 minute ago I don't really see how competition would be beneficial. It's not like two firms competing with each other, it's in everybody's best interest to work together.

Don't forget double spend is the recommended safe way to retry a payment that appears failed

theflyingorc posted:i've lost the thread somewhere, what's the joke? the joke is that blockchain.info says "Warning! this transaction is a double spend of ####" and there's a big red "DOUBLE SPEND" label, but it's not a successful one because if you look at the other transaction it has zero confirmations. but if you don't follow the link to the other transaction it looks like a real problem so i can post an unaltered screenshot where it totally looks like there's been a double-spend and feign complete ignorance, even though anybody with any clue can tell that i'm loving with people and @aantonop has retweeted part of the conversation so i know he's seen it, but he didn't say anything in response, i wonder if he's going to get that fixed
