Social Networks like this shouldn't exist on Bitcoin. Too expensive, too slow to actually stand the test of time. @Bitpico will rip this chain into pieces when he attacks central nodes

This chain won't last forever. BCash will be dead within 2-3 months.

But it does, and you're using it. :)

>Too expensive, too slow

1sat per byte is the cheapest anywhere, and 0-conf is seconds :)

stop, praising boku no bitpico, youre gayfriend only do is bragging about how deep he can get on a cucumber. youre name suits you very well, were out of funny animals so youre welcome.

Slow? Slow? Try sending your btc for the same fees you're paying for these chats and you'll be introduced to a whole new dimension of slow

Bitcoin is fast when not used by spammers posting their cat gif links on the blockchain every few seconds.

Bitcoin is permissionless. Who are you to tell us what can we do with it?
replied 2325d
You can waste your money if you want. Doesn't mean it was ever a good idea. Satoshi never made BTC for small payments, which is why he knew sidechains were needed.
replied 2324d
Satoshi envisioned online, permissionless micropayments from the very first release. :)
replied 2324d
And then later he realized the need for sidechains to scale. Dumbass.
replied 2324d
Where did he say that?

Once [Bitcoin] gets bootstrapped[...]you could effortlessly pay a few cents to a website as easily as dropping coins in a vending machine.

Still waiting for HTTP Error Code 402 (Payment Required) to enter general usage.
replied 2324d
Difference between HTTP 402 and Bitcoin is that Bitcoin actually made progress in that area ;)

replied 2324d
I would image the majority of these types of payments will be of the the mico-type. If a single chain is to become the default, it will need to be able to handle these transactions.

replied 2324d
Again, a fundamental misunderstanding: this time of my point. 402 says "use something to pay us", crypto is only one way to pay.
replied 2324d
402 is then obviously obsolete, since it has gained no traction, and crypto has.

I don't really understand where HTTP 402 comes into play when regarding crypto micropayments.

replied 2324d
They are complimentary technologies, not in competition.

replied 2324d
402 Errors are returned by a website when you need to make a payment for access. Access could be a snail-mailed OAuth token, but crypto now makes this feasible.That's why I'm waiting.
replied 2324d
Ahhh. 402 initiates payment, then crypto is used for that payment. Yeah, I see your point now. I guess BIP70 supercedes the HTTP402 in this case
Simon Van Gelder
replied 2324d
402s been around for a long time, but "Reserved for future use": Already part of the HTTP protocol, and would just take BIP70 on top as a data format. BIP70 is new to me, will read up.
replied 2324d
I don't dispute that. Personally I will use what works reliably and securely, whichever becomes commonplace is fine by me, so long as crypto is the underlying asset used for payments

[Bitcoin] could get started in a narrow niche like reward points, donation tokens, currency for a game or micropayments for adult sites.

I know how the narrative follows: Bitcoin isn't designed for people who earn less than $2/day. BTW, memo posts are small payments.
replied 2325d
Bitcoin isn't for people who earn less than $2/day. Lightning Network, is. Maybe a Memo can be made with lightning. Who knows?
replied 2324d
>BTC isn't for people who earn less than $2/day

Fixed that for you.

Bitcoin is for everybody :)

replied 2324d
LN isn't even ready for the average consumer making $100/day because the UX expectation is high but the delivery is less than satisfactory. Too much risk even for small txs.

I imagine that enforcing an unnecessary 1mb block limit would slow down a blockchain a LOT more than the occasional kitty cat. Have fun not being able to spend your "store of value"
replied 2325d
Slows down the blockchain, but at least it lasts. Sidechains are for small payments. End of story.
replied 2324d
>but at least it lasts

how does a 1MB limit on block size make a blockchain "last"? What exactly is the BTC chain enduring that a 1MB block size allows it to persevere?
replied 2324d
BCH is fast regardless because there's enough block space to fit all the "spammy cat gif links" + all of the txs people do currently + millions more :)

I'd like to see a tx w/ cat gif
replied 2325d
Bitcoin is fast when barely anybody is using it. But doesn't change the fact that even in slow times it's still more than 10x more expensive. You are clearly an idiot.
replied 2325d
Uh, you can still get 1 sat/byte tx's through on BTC.
replied 2325d
Prove it to me. Where's the BTC social media platform? LMAO Oh yeah it's Reddit. LMAO. You can lie, but you are just lying to yourself.
replied 2325d
I've already explained it to you. Social platforms shouldn't exist on blockchain. This bloat and spam will only make BCash die faster.
replied 2325d
That is your opinion, but so far 2775 think differently. And you are obviously here posting and helping with BCH transactions. So thanks.
