I think its hilarious that you spend all your time obsessing over the possibility that 1 cent out of your tax dollar could be wasted.
You don't even question the 30+ cents of that tax dollar used to buy overpriced, overvalued tanks, fighter jets, helicopters etc. to fight a never ending war on 3rd world citizens.
bought one pack of chewingum... and my dog ate them all. Now it is 2 am and I am at the vet... and the bill is already at 450$.
Hope your dog is ok , got my boy sat on the floor by my feet, he getting old now and his legs not as steady as they once were. Dread the day when he no longer gets up.
I'm thinking we coordinate mini stress tests every Saturday in August - four big warning shots on a periodic basis so they know what's coming and when it's coming.
Spamming the blockchain is not going to add value to BCH. We need natural velocity.
Definition of spam is irrelevant or inappropriate, the stresstest is neither. The ST is showcasing BCH capacity, proving to merchants BCH does scale, this will bring Natural Velocity.
natural velocity - transactions with a currency that involve exchanges in value unrelated to speculation or manipulation of said currency. That is what I want to see.
Yeah the stress test is mostly just a proof of concept. BCH hasn't quite found its killer app yet but it's just a matter of time. Sep. 1 will prove that it's ready for that volume.
The standard of living we have today is higher than in all of human history due to economic growth. This happened in spite of the state, not because of the state.
since society is only a number of individual men — this meant that some men (the majority or any gang that claims to be its spokesman) are ethically entitled to pursue any whims
Bitcoin (BCH) is a great example of how Bitcoin survives after a takeover attempt (its impossible). Should something similar happen again, we can fork off. We must never lose sight of Bitcoin's raison d'être.
Individuals scared to get on board with Bitcoin BCH out of fear; fear of what? Just doing nothing with fiat is a loss by indirect default because of inflation!, so why not be part of the revolution - why not indeed!.
pay attention to the BCH/BTC ratio - that's more important than the FIAT price. Just two months ago we were trading at 0.09 BCH/BTC and now we're sitting at 0.14 BCH/BTC despite t bloodbath
