Yeah, Dash has a commitment to low fees, Point of Sale wouldn't work otw. Whenever the price rises Dash commits to lower fees, we don't want what happened to btc to happen to us.
I agree, low fees are very important. But they don't look much lower than
#BCH so the cheap algorithm either isn't working or something else is eating those savings.
Dash Block size is only 2 MB's. But they will never have the amount of transactions to ever have to worry about increasing the block size
Why is this? Have you found any technical or perhaps philosophical problems with Dash?
Dash's diff is adjusted per block yes. For your question to be a yes you have to make certain assumptions. I'm sure a quick google will clear everything up for ya.
Well it certainly is. Mining algos are written to be a certain difficulty. You could change that if you wanted. The question is would it be economic...
Isn't the difficulty level adjusted dynamically based on network performance? Doesn't that make the energy efficiency of the algorithm irrelevant?
You want to decide what people eat, and what to grow, instead of letting the market, and individuals decide.
No, I have never expressed such desires. I'm making *arguments* as to why eating some things is bad and eating other things is good. I don't support government bans on meat.
Its already been proven to work like that. An algorithms efficiency is not the same as its utlization. Just like electric cars are more efficient but you can drive them wrong.
I'm a little out of my depth here, but would like input from real
#mining and
#blockchain experts. Is it possible to lower
#energy consumption just by using a different algorithm?
You seem like a very communist, or at least central authoritised for an AnCap. I eat beef because it is one of the greatest foods. It doesn't lack amino acids, and taste better.
How on Earth could you possibly interpret anything I've said as being communist? Please give some examples of what you mean.
They require different land. Also it would be bad to add that much extra topsoil for produce considering we already use it faster than it is produced. It is efficient to have cattle.
Plant-based meat replacements are already cheaper than meat.
You cant eat the rainforest. Poor nations cant easily import all their food needs. Their population is booming. You are wrong to think k they only graze with cattle.
So eat plants, save the rainforest.
Would this require a change in the BCH protocol?
No, just an addition to the memo protocol.
It was to give Dash a chance to decentralize before big mining powers came just like btc had. Evan wanted a similar growth. Idk but i remember reading it used like 30% less energy
I don't think it works like that. Miners will just throw more energy at the problem. It might slow down centralization for a while but eventually this will settle at the same level.
I disagree with that visual, they make decisions for the network like the master of a house. 5k globally-distributed nodes? Good luck. Monero only has ~1.7k nodes.
5000 master nodes?
What is the thinking behind the character limit in #memo? Wouldn't the BCH cost keep posts short without this?
This is a limit in the size of OP_RETURN transaction outputs. Longer messages would require multiple transactions which we haven't added support for yet. Thanks for your question.

That that up with the government of those nations. It means absolutely nothing to the subject of how people elsewhere should eat. Cattle grazing is very efficient in some places.
Consumers are responsible for the demand they create in the market. I don't trust government to fix this problem. Capitalism will fix it.
While it is easy to say it is bad the convert rainforest for agriculture,which it is,there are a lot of people and very little farm land, and it is expensive to import food.
Plants require less land than animals. Shipping is quite cheap. Not to mention that lots of meat is shipped from developing countries to the West.
Science is a method that works great in some fields of life, but what gets funded, prioritized and is used as argumentation in human affairs are also subject to politics and economics.
Science isn't perfect, I agree.
Top soil erosion is s problem you likely have not heard of. Grassland for meatgeazing is environmentally friendly.
I'm sure it's a problem, in some sense, but problems can be solved. Technology will advance agriculture to the point where soil is not needed. Decimating primeval rainforest =not cool.
That is a way to misinterpret that issue. The reality is very different, and far more complex then you make it seem. They have very little farmland in South America.
That doesn't address anything I argued.
-> measuring sentience, but we infer the likelihood from comparing the biology of humans and animals. But yeah, we have no clue about how consciousness works.
We can acknowledge the fact that we don't know everything, but we can't act based on things we don't know. Science or even doing anything rational would be impossible under such logic.
You never know! They installed Wi-Fi in a large retirement home, and several of the old people there died the next months. Same with hospitals that got Wi-Fi people died there.
I pretty much know. This would have been widely known if it was proven. Old people in retirement homes occasionally dying is normal.
Saying the world should suddenly abandoned everything about its past because of very recent changes is plain wrong. Progress, yes. Abandoning the past, no.
If customs are found to be bad they should stop. It's not going to happen all at once of course. Demand for animals will start falling. I predict +50% vegans in the West in 2050.
It is pompous to say we only eat meat because we are use to it. It is a very new thing for food to be shipped across the world fast enough to not spoil.
Pompous or not, it's true. Shipping isn't that new, but it's here now. Going forward agric. will move indoors w 24h artificial light and blow today's technology away re efficiency.
It is actually more efficient to have cows graze grassland so that we don't need to use more of the world dwindling topsoil supply. A vegan diet for the world would ensure starvation.
Rainforests all over the world is being cut to create grazing areas. Livestock consume prodigious amounts of farmed plants very little of which ends up in your steak. Not efficient.
BTC Maximalism vs the Truth:
Holy cow. They're really doubling down on stupid here. There has to be some sort of hidden tactic behind this. It's not something any rational person would do and expect good results.
