(comment) Right-wing politicians in western Europe sometimes refer to Orban as a shining example of nationalism. This article shatters that impression, in a way that is digestible regardless of political pref...

(comment) MULTIPLE OP_RETURN will allow multiple outputs in the same transaction or change in interpretation of OP_RETURN itself to use it as a separator within the same OP_RETURN output The eventual sp...

(comment) At least the miners decided this (ZULUPooL, Mining-Dutch, ViaBTC). I don't understand why, it seems like a stupid decision. The community then went along with the decision.

(comment) Are you going to compile C++ code to JavaScript, or is this a separate thing?

(comment) I remember reading an actual draft technical spec for this somewhere some time ago.

(comment) The article conflates the notions of "(hard) fork" and "split". Specifically, IFP activation is a soft fork - intentionally designed this way to exploit the coercive nature of soft forks. The ABC te...

(comment) Currencies starting with X are actually accepted for registration in the ISO 4217 list. ISO 4217 uses X for things that are not related to any particular country (otherwise, the code starts with the...

(comment) Bitcash is a pretty good name suggestion, "backward-compatible" with the traditional bit unit but simultaneously differentiating from a bit on BTC. Also bitcash is less confusing than bit w.r.t. the...

(comment) If the coin does not exist, there is nothing to keep. An exchange can't steal something that does not exist. Also generally you don't trade with the exchange, you trade with another user of the exch...

(comment) A lot of BSV transactions are merely intended to store data in the blockchain (in OP_RETURN outputs). See for example this report .

(comment) ABC's governance plan looks like a copy of Zcash without any significant innovation. Hence I see no point in executing this experiment.

(comment) I think adding replay protection sets a dangerous precedent that threatening a 51% is enough to change consensus rules in a way that interrupts the entire Bitcoin Cash economy. Additionally, the fea...

(comment) I oppose the IFP for both Jonathan's reasons and your reason.

(comment) bchn nodes will not accept ABC blocks any more. This is technically incorrect. Jonathan Toomim is right. To ensure a clean split, it would be advisable to first mine 10 BCHN blocks (which ar...

(comment) If you actually read the letter, you'd realise that is irony. The Bitcoin Cash organization has no titles other than those which we make up for fun in the spur of the moment, or to make fun of t...

(comment) Rick Falkvinge's Letter from the CEO was not that bad. Things went wrong because someone started to act like the non-ironic actual CEO of Bitcoin Cash.

(comment) Interesting considerations, thanks for this. Some thoughts after reading this: I see Reddit is not your favourite platform, haha. However, I do think it is important for protocol development t...

(comment) I see little reason for a split. ABC is still welcome to sign the statement too and stay on the Bitcoin Cash network with everybody else.

(comment) The thing is that this DAA is also correcting the coin emission drift which hasn't been the case in past DAA updates. The parties aren't disagreeing on whether or not to correct drift but on what...

(comment) Can you please explain how using the most recent (pre-fork) block as a reference point isn't arbitrary? With ASERT, using the pre-activation block as reference is mathematically equivalent to...

(comment) The main oscillation problem with cw-144 is not due to the window size, but because old blocks dropping out of the window have the same impact as new blocks entering the window. Hence any hashrate c...

(comment) Drift correction. When messing with coin emission once a year just isn't enough.

(comment) I don't think it is helpful to threaten immediate bans and encourage self-censorship when this is frankly a grey area, despite the claimed simplicity of the rules. What one sees as legitimate critic...

(comment) Jonathan teaching Amaury

@BigBlockIfTrue 4 years ago

(comment) For over a year, Amaury has been talking about fixing the culture in BCH, about making the BCH community goal-oriented rather than status-oriented. "Having to meet ABC's requirements" is statu...

(comment) This does assume that a double-spend proof can be constructed in time. In case of a miner bribe, the double spend will happen after you already left the store, and so the double-spend proof will be...

(comment) There are numerous severe problems with this article: This article complains no concrete proposal has been made yet, but the Jonathan Toomim's ASERT proposal is way more concrete than this Grasb...

(comment) It is worth pointing out that options like RTT can make difficulty more responsive to hashrate or exchange rate changes, but do not address the "echo problem" of the current DAA in any way. Since th...
