Hello world ! As part of a personal initiative to preserve art and its world heritage, i am collecting a fund to allow the manual recording and unitary deposit on the BSV blockchain of more than 818 painted works from the Louvre Museum in France ⚜️
The original weight of the cumulation is more than 289GB and of course will be recompressed to go much lower, therefore, as you know, the sending allowing the backup on the Blockchain of Bitcoin Satoshi Vision generates transaction costs related to the remuneration of "minors" thus allowing the final "validation" on the immutable Blockchain of BSV.
These cumulative costs have a cost of several hundred BSV. To enable this and thus engage in the preservation of this invaluable world heritage, nothing can be done without your direct help and that of your respective networks. You can also contribute by spreading the word to your friends and networks, it's appreciated !
TGIF! It was a good day, cruised my classic ‘66 Chevelle to work and lunch with friends today, been workin’ on her for over 20 years now... what’d’ya think? ;)

Jihan Wu on his own? Bitmain reportedly wants out of ‘failure’ Bitcoin Cash
The Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCHABC) boat is sinking, and Bitmain—under new management—reportedly no longer wants to be part of it.
Quoting sources familiar with the matter, Bitmain Twitter critic BTCKING555 tweeted on Friday that the Chinese cryptocurrency mining equipment manufacturer “will dial down the support” for the BCHABC project, claiming “Macree Zhang wants to be nowhere near this failure.”
The Beijing-based ASIC device manufacturer has been in a downward spiral as it loses its competitive edge. In the third quarter of 2018, Bitmain reportedly lost about $400 million, and its efforts to grow BCHABC have been considered not only controversial, but “likely loss making.”
In an earlier post, BTCKING555 pointed out how some of Bitmain’s investors like IDG Capital and Sequoia Capital have been steering clear of the company, describing the company as...
In order to make alliances, it is necessary to give concessions to others so that the network can be appealing to more people. Having solved the Byzantine General's problem does not make building alliances obsolete. In fact, it is much easier to provide concessions because the expectation of reciprocation that much more likely.
On SV reorgs https://www.yours.org/content/on-forks--orphans-and-reorgs-0c0c39d3c79b
I'm "pro SV" but I really feel like SV is about watching something bad happens, and then find a way to say it's a good feature
Hi! Thanks for the link, I haven't been on yours in a while. It's actually cleaned itself up a bit since I last remember.
While I totally see what you mean (CSW being kicked off Twitter is actually good, Being delisted is actually good, etc), I do think reorgs being a feature is consistent with what BSV has been saying all along.
Consider the following. These are things BSV has been saying all along.
1. propagation and orphan blocks are not a problem - they incentivize miners to compete and invest in the network. 2. no double spends occurred (
) and only miners were affected. 3. we know from stress tests in the pre-hash war days that every mining pool had differential capacity to handle big blocks.
The alternative seems to be top-down blocksize maximums and small block subsidies.
I am not in the industry, but this is cool. I have been buying a lot of https://cutiescitrus.com recently. Easy to peel, cheap, and a nice balance between pulpy and sweet. Other brands have (so far) not been as satisfactory.
Happy Anniversary! Although inactive lately, proud to be here since day 1, I vow to be more engaged again...
Wow. I can't believe it has been one year already. Lot of things happened in the last year: both personally and financially. The world of Bitcoin is as interesting as ever. Memo is by far my favorite and most frequent method of spending bitcoins.
I think it's reasonable to want truly insane people to be punished differently than sane people. Because law is not just punishment. It' s punishment aimed to both deter others from crime and rehabilitate the criminal. Insane people have different rehabilitation needs and their harsh punishment would not deter the insane from doing criminal acts, because they are, well, insane. A demented grandpa pulling a rifle shot into his wife because he thought he was back in the wars, and a husband murdering his wife to get revenge, for example, are good cases of the insanity defense being used as they should.
There are people who try to use that concept to get out of punishment. That has been true from the beginning of its use in modern law. Then again, it's the application of the law not the law itself that is evil. Corruption is already outlawed, I do not think outlawing the insanity defense is a good idea.
