Lol wtf he got fired for this? That was weird, kinda gay, and not very funny, but not at all offensive considering it was a fucking comedy act.

No, I'm explaining to you why you are wrong. You just keep repeating yourself, unwilling or unable to address the points I've made.

be able to deterministic-ally calculate a priv key from a pub key. But tx order is not one of them.

Determinism is necessary for literally any computer system. There are some parts of encryption (priv/pub keys) where we DON'T want determinism. For example, you shouldn't...

Yep, the same private keys that are deterministic-ally generated by a pseudo-random computer program, and then deterministic-ally used to calculate a public key and address.

A 32MB block to kick off the hash war! (which by BU 1.5.0.1 handled easily despite Reddit speculation). SV is up big in hash rate!

This should be fun =)

The universe is deterministic. Bitcoin uses that determinism via of encryption and game theory to work. Read up and stop using buzzwords like you know what you're talking about.

I'm done arguing with you since you clearly have no idea what you're talking about lol.

A) verify hash matches the blocks txs B) So the hash can be used to calculate future blockheaders, therefore cryptgrphcly proving the block is built on a valid tx history(merkle tree)

The entire point of hashing the transactions is so that someone who looks at all the transactions published in that block can easily can quickly:

knowing the order of txs in a block. That's not how the encryption is used, or even works. Txs are hashed ONLY as part of merkle tree, meaning they only matter for the past blocks.

No, you are showing a fundamental lack of understanding of the encryption behind bitcoin and the reason txs are hashed in the first place. There is no possible fuckery behind...

Imagine you had 10 million Bitcoins and you thought they were going to fly to the moon? How would you feel? See, I can pose pointless and unfounded hypotheticals as well.

consensus mechanism to prove their existence. Hence why all transactions are also sent totally encrypted in every block as well.

BitcoinIsP2PC4$H
No. Every node on the network already knows about every tx. The hash of the transactions does not serve to hide the txs or prevent them from interception. It is used ONLY as a....

I'm not saying CSW has ulterior/malicious motives, Im just saying I don't understand them, despite having followed the space closely since 2013 and trying hard to see things his way.

Based on the cryptography involved, I'm not sure how the order of the transactions could provide any sort of attack vector. If the whole network can easily and nearly instantly see...

Yes, it increases verification complexity (slightly), but how does it make it "easier to attack" the chain.
