Podcasts about bitcoin unlimited

De blocksize war. Misschien heb je er wel van gehoord. Het was misschien wel de belangrijkste periode in de geschiedenis van bitcoin. Tussen 2014 en 2017 ontstond de discussie rondom de schaalbaarheid van bitcoin. Die discussie ontaardde in een chaos. Ruzie, censuur, achterkamertjes, miscommunicatie, critical bugs, Chinese miners en charlatans: alles kwam voorbij. Uiteindelijk werd de strijd 'gewonnen' de de 'small blockers'. In deze uitzending kijk ik met Wouter Constant en Aaron van Wirdum terug op deze tijd.

In this episode of The Unhashed Podcast: This week, more than one research firm published reports about the true trading volumes of several of the largest exchanges, like binance and coinbene. Is this a sign of fraud or is pumping up the volume just the sign of a good time Peter McCormack is taking shit over having on Erik Vorhees on his show What Bitcoin Did and not challenging him enough. Are maximalists turning into the Bitcoin equivalent of social justice warriors by calling for the deplatforming of prominent yet hated people in the community or is ignoring stupidity the best way forward? And...the Bitmain IPO has officially died. Is this a grim omen of the things to come for Bitmain or can they keep it together long enough for the new leadership to turn the ship around and buy some good will among bitcoiners once more?0:00:00 Introduction0:03:03 Studies Indicate Fake Trading Volume0:22:40 Maximalism and Deplatforming0:33:05 Amary Sechet leaves Bitcoin Unlimited dev team0:40:21 Bitcoin IPO Filing Expires0:47:07 Blockstream Green1:00:29 ICOMG - Sponsy1:10:03 Lightning RoundMake sure to check out Billfodl for all your hardware wallet backup needs

On this edition of the Crypto.IQ Daily Radio Show we do a deep dive market analysis. Bitcoin (BTC) is retreating from the $4,000 resistance level and the crypto market is in the red. Hear about how the Bitmain IPO application has been rejected by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. We discuss how the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria is trying to use blockchain and cryptocurrency to form a decentralized government, in order to avoid the mistakes of the past that caused the Syrian Civil War. Learn about the nonsensical bet that Tim Draper made with the Argentinian president, where if Bitcoin (BTC) falls below the value of a peso Draper will invest double in Argentina. The Argentinian Peso is only worth $0.024 and constantly losing value, so this would never happen. We also discuss how Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas was trying to raise money with Bitcoin (BTC) after being cut-off by Qatar, and they have barely raised any money at all. Hear about how the ‘benevolent dictator’ of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is quitting Bitcoin Unlimited, continuing the trend of increasing schisms in the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) space, and potentially paving the way for yet another fork.

There's HUGE dissent within Bitcoin Cash at the moment. On one side is Craig Wright of nChain. He has patented some blockchain tech and is fighting with Bitcoin ABC and Bitcoin Unlimited to not have this tech included in the open source code, because he wants to make money from it. He says he's just trying preserve the original bitcoin and prevent unnecessary changes. I chat to Chris Pacia, Lead developer for Open Bazaar, about everything that you need to know about the Bitcoin Cash dissent and upcoming Fork scheduled for November.

On tonight's episode of “The Crypto Show,” Danny successfully signs on board a gun shop owner to be a Ghost Gunner distributor in the L.A. area. Danny is currently in El Segundo, California, near LAX, waiting to take the next leg of his trip to the bay area. Fred Constantinesco sits in with us to discuss various topics with us, including trends he's witnessed at the Dallas Bitcoin meetup he hosts. Brian Hoffman from Open Bazaar joins us to play a rap parody video of the Bitcoin debate between Roger Ver of Bitcoin Unlimited and John Dilley of Blockstream, a debate that Danny and I M.C.ed while at the Anarchapulco Conference back in February, and tells us about his experience at the Consensys conference in New York. We also discuss with him the future of Bitcoin and the resolution of the block-size issue, the proliferation of ICO's, and a recent development with Open Bazaar.

Years into the great Bitcoin scaling debate no solution is in reach. Neither bigger blocks nor Segregated Witness have anywhere near consensus support. With the conflict escalating, a Bitcoin fork has become a real possibility. Electrum Developer Thomas Voegtlin joined us to discuss the state of the Bitcoin scaling debate. We discussed Bitcoin Unlimited, ASICBoost, SegWit activation without miner support and how a Bitcoin fork could play out. Possible outcomes include that Bitcoin Unlimited gains a majority of hashing power and starts mining bigger blocks. In the event of a fork, a proof-of-work change could be done to defend the minority chain from miner attacks. And lately a proposal was brought forward to activate SegWit without the support of the hashing power. Topics discussed in this episode: ASICBoost and its potential role in the conflict How a Bitcoin fork could happen How to split coins in case of a fork How UASF could be used to activate SegWit without miner support Requirements for UASF to be safe How Electrum would handle a fork Episode links: Electrum Bitcoin Wallet ASICBoost – Hacker Noon Bitcoin's New Controversy: The AsicBoost Allegations Explained - CoinDesk Timo Hanke on ASICBoost and SegWit Non-Activation From AsicBoost to UASF: Greg Maxwell on Bitcoin's Path Forward - CoinDesk [bitcoin-dev] Thomas Voegtlin: Soft Fork Threshold Signaling Proposal UASF Working Group [bitcoin-dev] Greg Maxwell: I do not support the BIP 148 UASF Thomas Voegtlin: Electrum, SPV Wallets And Bitcoin Aliases — Epicenter This episode is hosted by Brian Fabian Crain and Sébastien Couture.

قسمت پنجم - پادکست شیر یا خط ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- در این قسمت می خواهیم به موضوعاتی مثل اندازه بلاک، فورک یا انشعاب، bitcoin unlimited و مطالبی در این حوزه بپردازیم. این مبحث، مبحثی طولانی ست. در ابتدا تاریخچه کوچکی در رابطه با اندازه بلاک خواهیم گفت و اینکه بیتکوین از ابتدا محدودیتی برای اندازه بلاک نداشته و زمانی که بحث محدود شدن به 1مگابایت پیش آمد، برای جلوگیری از اسپم بود. برخی ها بر این باورند که اندازه بلاک باید بیشتر شود و برخی دیگر می گویند که این اتفاق مشکلات خاص خود را بدنبال خواهد داشت. مثلا اگر استخراج کننده ای یک بلاک دو مگابایتی را استخراج کند، پخش شدن آن در شبکه بیشتر طول می کشد و اگر در این فاصله، استخراج کننده ای دو بلاک کوچک استخراج و پخش کند، زحمت های استخراج کننده اول به هدر رفته و آن بلاک اصطلاحا "یتیم" می شود. بطور کلی چرا نیاز به بلاک های بزرگتر داریم؟ در صورت بزرگتر شدن اندازه بلاک (مثلا تا بیست مگابایت)، چه بلایی سر نودهای کوچک خواهد آمد؟ در شبکه بیتکوین استخراج کنندگان حق رای دارند و بر روی تغییرات شبکه رای می دهند. برخی از افراد جامعه بیتکوین بر این باورند که چرا تنها استخراج کنندگان، که اتفاقا در شبکه سود می برند می توانند رای دهند؛ و در نهایت جامعه بیتکوین به دو گروه تقسیم شد که علاوه بر اندازه بلاک، بر سر اینکه نودها هم بتوانند رای دهند بحث می کنند. بطور کلی آیا بوجود آورن شرایطی که در آن نودها نیز بتوانند رای دهند منطقی است و آیا این امر باعث سیگنال دهی های غیرواقعی از طرف نودهای ساختگی نمی شود؟ در ادامه به موضوع هارد فورک و اینکه چه راه حلی برای جلوگیری از آن وجود دارد می پردازیم و خواهیم گفت که آیا سافت فورک راه حل مناسب تری نسبت به هارد فورک است یا خیر. اUASF چیست؟ آیا سگویت که Bitcoin Core پروپوزال آن را ارائه داده، می تواند راه حل بهتری برای اندازه بلاک باشد؟ اLightening Network چه ویژگی هایی دارد و فواید آن چیست؟ روش کار این شبکه به چه صورت است؟ فرض کنید که در استخری مرکزی شما بین یک گروه شروع به خرید و فروش و جابجایی بیتکوین می کنید. تمام تراکنش ها جمع می شوند و در نهایت تنها یک تراکنش در بلاکچین ثبت می شود. در ادامه به توضیح این موضوع و دلایل مخالفت استخراج کنندگان با آن خواهیم پرداخت. چرا سگویت می تواند امکان استفاده از Lightening Network را فراهم کند؟ در ادامه به فورک اتریوم می پردازیم و آن را با سیستم بیتکوین و وضعیت فعلی آن مقایسه می کنیم. به این سوال پاسخ می دهیم که با توجه به مشکلات و کشمکش های اندازه بلاک، آیا ممکن است آلتکوین های دیگر بتوانند جای بیتکوین را بگیرند. در صورتی که فورک بیتکوین اتفاق بیافتد بهتر است کوین های خود را کجا نگهداری و محافظت کنیم؛ مثلا روی صرافی ها یا کیف پول های آنلاین و یا کیف پول های سخت افزاری؟ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- فروردین/۱۲/۱۳۹۶ 11 March 2017 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- در گفتگوهای ما مشارکت کنید: goo.gl/e7IBXq

Steht Bitcoin vor einer Zerreißprobe? Zwei Lager kämpfen um die Macht und wie es ausgehen wird, ist ungewiss. Bitcoin Core und SegWit auf der einen Seite. Bitcoin Unlimited und die einfache Blockvergrößerung auf der anderen. Wir sprechen über die Ursachen, klären beide Positionen und klären ganz nebenbei noch andere Fragen, die uns und unseren Hörern unter den Nägeln brennen.

With both the Bitcoin Unlimited and Segregated Witness efforts far from reaching majority support and exploding transaction fees, the debate around how to scale Bitcoin continues on. One of the key arguments against bigger blocks and Bitcoin Unlimited is that a blocksize restriction is needed to create a healthy fee market. Dr Peter Rizun has been researching the economics of transaction fees in Bitcoin extensively and joined us to discuss what dynamics affect fees and why he thinks the blocksize limit will eventually fall. Topics covered in this episode: Bitcoin seen through the eyes of a physicist The dynamics that determine transaction fees in Bitcoin How orphaning risks drive the fee market economics The relationship between the block reward and the fee market Why the blocksize limit will eventually fall Why Peter supports Bitcoin Unlimited The state of discussion between Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Unlimited Episode links: Dr. Peter Rizun's talk at Scaling Bitcoin Montreal 2015 Dr. Peter Rizun: "A Transaction Fee Market Exists Without a Block Size Limit" XT Nodes - Bitcoin Hashrate Distribution Bitco.in Forum Ledger - Peer-Reviewed Journal on Cryptocurrency and Blockchain This episode is hosted by Brian Fabian Crain and Meher Roy. Show notes and listening options: epicenter.tv/172

Years into the controversy around how to scale Bitcoin, there have been many challengers to Bitcoin core’s dominance. After XT, Classic and others have faded, Bitcoin Unlimited has been gaining traction and emerged as plausible new way forward. Bitcoin Unlimited wants to make the block size a parameter that is set by miners and nodes, but not fixed at a network level. They argue a natural fee market would emerge, allowing Bitcoin to rapidly scale and realizing its promise of electronic cash as well as store of value. The project is also member-driven, with democratic decisions driving its development decisions. Core developer G. Andrew Stone and Bitcoin Unlimited President Andrew Clifford joined us for the episode. Topics covered in this episode: How Stone and Clifford first got involved in Bitcoin The history of the blocksize debate and Bitcoin core alternatives Why the Bitcoin block size should be determined by miners not developers The natural fee market that would arise controlling the size of Unlimited blocks How the non-profit organization behind Bitcoin Unlimited works How a transition to Bitcoin Unlimited could look like Episode links: Peter Rizun: How Bitcoin Unlimited deals with large blocks Bitcoin Unlimited Website G.

Roger Ver is one of the earliest Bitcoin investors and through his tireless evangelizing of the cryptocurrency became known as ‘Bitcoin Jesus’. Roger joined us to discuss Bitcoin’s incredible potential to foster liberty. We also discussed how the current stalemate about how to scale Bitcoin is threatening that potential. And, finally, the mining pool operated by his site Bitcoin.com that is supporting the Bitcoin Unlimited client. Topics covered in this episode: How Roger Ver became the first investor in Bitcoin startups What the Bitcoin community was like in 2011 The appeal of Bitcoin for voluntaryists Why the scalability stalemate is crippling Bitcoin Bitcoin.com’s new mining pool and support for Bitcoin Unlimited His vision for the future of Bitcoin Episode links: Bitcoin.com Roger Ver Uncut Video Bitcoin Unlimited BLOCKTRAIL | Bitcoin API and Block Explorer Hashrate Distribution Mining Pools & Clients BLOCKTRAIL | Bitcoin API and Block Explorer Roger Ver: TIme to End the Block-Size Blockade Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money This episode is hosted by Brian Fabian Crain and Sébastien Couture.

e Tonight we talk with Roger Ver about the Bitcoin.com mining pool and the very recent strides that Bitcoin Unlimited is making in the global hashing power. We also touch a little on the FreeRossAthon and Rogers's generous donations to Ross. Justus Ranvier also sits in to help explain some of the history of Bitcoin and the differences between Segwit and BU. It is not Justus' position to support one over the other. StashNode is meant to be agnostic. It is capable accommodating BU as a precautionary measure. StashNode runs BTCD not BU contrary to Reddit rumors. This was a really fun episode and is sure ruffle a few feathers in fact on Twitter it already has

Supposedly, some Bitcoin users cheated on their taxes, so the IRS wants everything from transaction records to physical addresses to device history and more. This is obviously an invasion of privacy, but how far will Coinbase go to protect their customers?Then after that, we'll chat about ViaBTC's plan to block Segregated Witness. ViaBTC is a mining pool whose operator, Haipo Yang, hopes to get enough hashing power to run the network on Bitcoin Unlimited, which has no block size limit.
