Good luck going forward. You may be In a shitty position right now but hopefully this set of events will at least be educational to you and maybe you can use those lessons to make something g valuable in a few years.
Enjoy the slow bleed as both btc and bch holders dump on you to finance their pussy and blow habits.

this makes sense, when they started the hash war they didn't think ABC would be so dumb to introduce automatic checkpoints and rush to start implementing the semi-proof of stake system.

they thought the hashwar would go on for months but ABC shot themselves in the head so it's best to just break off.

i thought that BCH was just about removing limits but apparently ABC doesn't really want bitcoin. SV is now closest to bitcoin as a matter of fact.

How else would you describe hostile chain reorgs and rollback implemented by well financed attackers with the agenda to destroy the ledger other than a bug that requires fixing?
BSV provoked those changes with their irrational idiocy. And their chain is the one that remains vulnerable to those attacks, more vulnerable even with half the hashpower of BCH now protecting it. Wouldn't it be a shame if someone turned around and did to their shit tier chain what they had threatened to do to others? Tragedy I'm sure.

yeah that's how bitcoin works. current situation with several sha256 coins was never intended, it's just how it is.

if ABC want to move away from bitcoin with proof of stake and auto-checkpoints just 10 blocks away then whatever, fine. we still have bitcoin safe and sound in SV. in the end we all win with different competing cryptos. depending on how those mystical patents are defined though i wonder if non-SV can actually become world money now

the truth is there is no need for more than 1 pow chain.

Right, it is how it is. And from that landscape actual security must be built. And just pretending that people can't summon massive mercenary armies on your doorstep by buying off hashpower is unrealistic and irresponsible to your users. And the less hashpower you have, the more irresponsible it is. And BSV has half the hashpower of BCH --and-- no defense from hostile chain reorg attacks.
No matter how you want to spin that, it's irresponsible. If they're not attacked it's for no other reason than they're lucky, or their shitcoin isn't even worth the trouble.

What has the most bitcoin-ness doesn't matter, except potentially as a marker for something that has had historically good stability. That doesn't apply anymore because everybody knows nakamoto consensus is broken now. There's 50 exahash or so of mercenary hashpower out there, and if you are a tasty enough target, they will stomp you unless you can defend against it, so only parties with over 26 exahash at their command realistically have any business not instituting some kind of defense against these attacks and just relying on proof of work alone.
What matters is what best delivers on the original promises of Bitcoin, and that is indisputably BCH.

The description of Segwit on wikipedia states:

while the whitepaper states
> We define an electronic coin as a chain of digital signatures. Each owner transfers the coin to the next by digitally signing a hash of the previous transaction and the public key of the next owner and adding these to the end of the coin. A payee can verify the signatures to verify the chain of ownership
As "record of who is sending or receiving the bitcoins" is now "separated from the Merkle tree" then this information is no longer part of the "chain of digital signatures", as that chain is stored in the Merkle tree. SegwitCoin no longer has "a chain of digital signatures", so it's not a bitcoin per whitepaper definition.

Precisely.

well miners didn't exactly slaughter BCH either when it was at the top. also remember that you don't actually slaughter and profit at the same time, since you're mining the chain you're destroying. so it doesn't make sense to fatten the crypto before you slaughter it. if you get over 50% of the hash it is just more profitable to keep mining it. that's why the hashwar this month was unique

>> No.11909725

>>11909657
> well miners didn't exactly slaughter BCH either when it was at the top.
It was never profitable to, in fact when it was profitable to start slaughtering BTC, they --did-- that. That's exactly what happened on November 12th 2017, and that's what caused that mass panic and spike to 0.5. It might be profitable now that the hashrates are getting so low with the depressed market, but ironically thanks to the BSV threat, they've already changed it so it's not so easy to execute that kind of attack on BCH anyway. And of course, it doesn't hurt that the largest mining manufacturer in the world holds a million BCH. An attack on that chain has a pretty obvious response from that party.
> if you get over 50% of the hash it is just more profitable to keep mining it. that's why the hashwar this month was unique
That's not true, that's in fact why BTC almost died that day. Because it was more profitable to mine BCH and thus all except 10% of the hashpower abandoned BTC. If that had stayed that way for two weeks, BTC would've died permanently.

>That's not true
but it is. 90% of the miners left BTC but none of them attacked BTC because its better to have a backup and to keep mining BCH for profits during that time. that's what we're discussing here, how 51% attacks just aren't worth it. if some BTC miner moves his hash to SV to kill it that's hashpower he would profit way more from just keeping it on BTC and mining honestly.

>> No.11909890

>>11909799
It sounds like you don't realise that 90% of miners leaving BTC is an attack because of the way BTC's DAA works. With that drastic a loss of hashrate, it would completely die. It wouldn't be able to mine new blocks fast enough to keep up with the DAA. But miners didn't care about that, they mined what was most profitable anyway. At the time I thought this was evidence miners realised BTC was a chain managed by idiots pursuing a moronic consensus ruleset and they were happy to let it die --because of that--, but it could just as well be they just don't care about any individual chain and will just mine for short term profitability no matter what. Certainly in the case of BSV vs BCH, the BSV ruleset was idiotic and the BCH ruleset was good, and yet still nChain had no trouble summoning 4 exahash of mining power to mine their chain.
BSV and BCH both don't have the DAA problem that BTC does which would kill them on a rapid departure of hashrate, but BCH used to be and BSV still is vulnerable to someone taking out a massive short position, and then purchasing mercenary hashpower necessary to run very large double spend attacks on the exchanges. They win double out of that, first from their short paying off as the market realises the chain isn't safe, and secondly from the double spends to the exchanges, and they can still evacuate their winnings via another chain they haven't torpedoed.
So if it makes economic sense to rent hashpower for that attack in the case of BSV, I think it will eventually happen unless they erect defenses against it like BCH already has.

i know about how the difficulty adjustment works, i just don't see that as an attack. just a flaw in bitcoin. i think bitcoin cash's moving average over the last 144 blocks is a much better algorithm.

what's interesting is that craig intend to restore the original 2016 blocks at a later date (unless he changes his mind):
https://twitter.com/ProfFaustus/status/1061991109914738688
i guess it does provide incentive for miners to upgrade their hardware every 2016 blocks to be able to earn a bit more for two weeks.

>> No.11910014

>>11909994
it depends on your perspective. The reason he wants it re-instated is pretty clear I think; it is a reliable mechanism for deprecating old forks in a clean way that for example now both BSV and BCH don't have. Renegade hashpower could keep legacy chains of those kind alive forever if it cared to, but not so with the BTC DAA. That comes with the drawback however that if miners dump fast enough, it can indeed kill the chain.
Engineering is often like that, it's not picking the right thing so you're covered everywhere, it's picking the less bad thing so you're covered on what really matters. So which you prefer is going to depend on what you decide matters.

It doesn't matter how many patents you have when you're trying to launch a system that the states and central banks of the world are guaranteed to fight every step of the way, you're relying on the best who will suffer most from your success to protect it. That's foolish, the patents are worth absolutely nothing.
In light of that fact, all you have is a blowhard idiot who forked a codebase he doesn't understand that he can't even get to operate properly who actually --validates-- all the ridiculous claims core have made about scaling on chain being an impossibility, while BCH in the background with far less flare for the dramatic and attention proves that untrue and just quietly makes it actually happen.

This is simply wrong, did you see the video from previous pic related? He looked like he'd been snorting cocaine, and then this pic related. He was completely wrecked.
The worst thing about the entire hashwar is it came out that his plan all along was to shadowmine and continuously rollback to the point of the fork. But --all bch forks-- have always had checkpoints issued for them, period. So never, even in theory, could his strategy have worked, because he didn't understand this very basic fact about the blockchain. And he always falls victim to shit like that because he has no fucking idea what he's actually doing.

You clueless smug btc boomers all sound the same. Big blocks can be attacked because muh centralised full nodes! Totally ignorant of the fact that any attack against them just makes the remaining nodes more authoritative on the network, and this scales down smoothly until it gets to the point the nodes and their hashing power can't be located or attacked at all. The degraded landscape still functions. It's just lower throfhbout throughout and less capacity, which you permanently hamstrung yourself with anyway due to your retarded choices.
At the same time you utterly miss the gaping vulnerability of 99 percent plus traffic routed through massive centralised hubs the topology of lightning absolutely requires to be centralised, and once these points are captured there's no scaling them down period. And you don't even raise an eyebrow as sidechains controlled by transparent corporate interests and thus in turn their parent intelligence agencies are set up to manage an arbitrarily large portion of the total money supply also.
Basically you spotted one vulnerability, didn't actually consider the response to it in a hostile landscape, and idiotically sleepwalked right into the other ones without the slightest clue you were being conned. And now you saunter around smugly thinking you've accomplished anything totally unaware you're one hundred percent under the control of the very forces you imagine you are opposing.
