Now there's an alternative: adjust to zero-conf PoW, or adopt PoS rejuvenated/perfected with Avalanche.

The issue with PoS was when it is coupled with Nakamoto consensus, isn't it?
replied 2082d
Apologies, I seemed to have missed your point.

So what are you implying with "it's still critical for gaining control of the network" before?

The BEST way to explain what Avalanche is and how it can work for BCH as well as AVA is using an animated doodle. Would someone please make one?
2082d · Avalanche
I am now optimistic of Avalanche.
replied 2082d
Yes and no. Basically the old benefit of 51% is "few confirmations" accommodating a split for a double-spend. With Avalanche, network control can cause a sway. But remains _not_ split.

I hate it when I messed up an image link on the blockchain!

replied 2082d
Yup. It is now clearly stated at the bottom of the "Sell Tokens/List Tokens for Sale" page, just below the confirmation button.

replied 2082d
For BCH, it is an add-on pre-consensus method on top of existing PoW algorithm.

AVA instead uses it as a consensus method, as opposed to Nakamoto's, coupled with PoS algorithm.

I just saw your video interviewing Chris Pacia.

Now I get it. Thank you!
replied 2082d
Apparently it's Naomi's video with Pacia that enlightened me. I now have a clearer picture of what Avalanche is and how it works.

If Avalanche can be applied to BCH, that would be awesome. However, I have to be honest I have yet to understand how this is a secure method. Probably I'm still missing some bits and pieces.
replied 2082d
Thank you! Have some too!
replied 2082d
I'm not pro Facebook, but this is a good idea.
replied 2082d
Ah, that explains. Got it, thanks!
replied 2082d
The thing is I'm mostly on bone conduction headphones and they tend to need extra volume, even with regular videos. On the animated emoji ones, I ran out of volume knob range. 😅
replied 2082d
And the jump on the audio level is more noticable if there's an ad playing before your video starts. Or if I went to watch, let's say, a TED video afterwards.
replied 2082d
Hey Naomi, I'm loving your animated emoji videos! They're a treat! However, and not that I want to sound like Mr. Sound Man, but the audio level is below that of your regular ones.
replied 2082d
We, or at least I, would get warm fuzzy feelings and really appreciate it if you can let us know you're seeing these periodically, such as with this message you just wrote. Thank you!
