Furthermore:

Perhaps not for good yet, but only for few more weeks/months?

Hmm... I see how that could work for e.g. facebook groups where anyone can join.
However, Mensa has minimum IQ requirement for membership, and I think it's above 105.

Can you elaborate how can most members have less than minimum required IQ?

@anonymint tells me in private chat that maybe you're referring to their divergent IQ score?
In that case, all could be admitted to Mensa with the requisite minimum convergent IQ of 130 yet still potentially have a divergent IQ below 106,
although this seems highly improbable especially if referring to a group of individuals.

@anonymint asks @r0ach to explain why surreptitious centralization is the antithesis of the next reserve currency?

@Torque, regarding bcash and altcoins in general, @anonymint asks you whether Exter's pyramid should be inverted or do derivatives wag the dog?

@anonymint read your reply and thinks it would be humorous to hear your physics explanation for the WTC7 collapse on 9/11 and for the subsequent outcome of 9/11 that caused widespread political support from Americans both for wars in the Middle East and AML controls (Patriot Act) which benefit Zionists and drive the demand for something like Bitcoin to become the next reserve currency as was explained in the detail in the prior linked comments.
He comments, "divergent thinking boys, not convergent myopia."

Also he asks you why did Satoshi put double-hashing everywhere except where it would have defeated ASICBOOST?
And why would Satoshi create a system which is a winner-take-all if that was not "his" intention?

And on top of that, they remove vowels from my pseudonym, and make it their kleptocurrency abbreviation  
Talking about plagiarism!

FTFY.

As if those with a lot of wealth can actually prevent anyone from finding out. Delusion much.



You seem as usual to not comprehend anything that Shelby designs and writes about.

The entire point is decentralized moderation. That means you can select mtwerp to be your moderator if you want and he can hard delete everything that you will ever see. But others can still find the content if they wish to choose a different filter of the blockchain data.

As for spam, that is simple. You spend something to post. Small enough that you don’t care, but large enough that spammers do care. And besides, if you are given the tokens to spend with for free, and those tokens are appreciating in value, then you are not spending anything. But the spammers will not be able to get those tokens for free, because they are not real people. But if you prefer to remain an anonymous little shit poster, then yeah you’ll need to buy some tokens. Might cost you 10 cents a month. Don’t know if you can afford that though?



You cannot understand anything Shelby designs or writes about. You continue to make technological and economics errors every time you reply to anything he has proposed or written about. IOW, Ignore (which is precisely what a decentralized moderation scheme enables).


So you’d also cut your dick off because someone pointed at you and yelled rape? God misplaced the discernment module when he conceived you.



He tells me (via Crypto.cat) that your summary is accurate although lacking details such as the fact that Satoshi miners have no choice but to defend against some other miners using the booty to finance double-spend attacks. And Core is one of those altcoins you mention which he stated can be used as a checkbook, but which should be differentiated from hodling large value in which security is the paramount concern. And there is the post he made where he explained the technical reasons that all of LN (that remains when it fully centralizes as it must) can eventually be done on the real Bitcoin as well without the Core cruft added.



Yup that is quite evident. Everything goes in one ear and flies out the other, nothing stuck inside to be worse for the wear and tear on actual thinking.


FTFY.

IOW, the SegWit booty donations are not a low probability outcome. More like virtually guaranteed. We just have to wait for the booty to grow into the millions of BTC.



Well Shelby admitted that. How would you define genius?

Your statement implies a claim that your IQ is high, but your analysis of the future of the US stock market lacks insight into the coming dollar short vortex which Shelby has written about.

What is the virtue of genius if you lack the resolve to feed your brain with all available data? What is the virtue of genius if you waste it in the W.O. thread of airheads.

And what “good case” have you proven? Data? Or did you just pull that out of your pompous, self-important asshole?


WTF? So you get to discuss and he has to relegate himself to non-interactive communication because why? Because airheads prefer a forum that is an echo chamber. No the problem is that Shelby needs to go to a forum of his peers that does not exist. His peers being those “non-geniuses” who dig deep into technology. As he has been doing with @keean:

https://github.com/keean/zenscript/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-desc

Two peas in a pod over there. And most of you will not understand any of it.



And you continue to make mistakes in your analysis, because you do not understand economics.
I would tell you to read @anunymint’s posts because he recently explained everything, but all the effort is nuked.
So relax, mtwerp protected your blissful ignorance and high IQ genius echo chamber.

Ever heard of the concept of buying the ICO from yourself so the issuer surreptitiously controls 80+% of the token supply?


Moderators of your own individual choosing who flag spam as not visible to you is not any more costly than bitcointalk.org having moderators who do the same thing.
The amount of spam that has to be filtered would be less due to it not being entirely free to post.
Remember the decentralized ledger only has to store a hash, not the entire content. Those who are serving the content may refuse to keep copies of spam which no one else ever pays to retrieve.
Are you presuming the moderators here are paid? By whom? So if they are profiting, then are they impartial and objective?

Where is that genius IQ that I was told exists here?


You’re an expert troll. Kudos.


The pattern was evident after only a dozen or so.



Echo chambers need lists to keep everything tightly contained (anal-ized)




Refuted.


Yeah right none of the 20859 pages of this thread are redundant.


Shelby also thought so in 2013. But you did not address my challenge to you. Where is the evidence for your “good case” claim? You were implying that Shelby is not suitably equipped to do genius level work. Are you sure?


Could it be that what you perceive to be noise from Shelby is actually information which you are unable or unwilling to follow because of either your lack of IQ or more likely because of your preconditions, confirmation biases, and the maximum division-of-labor requiring effort to keep up with a domain expert?




Basically he has not been doing any of these things for a year or more:

https://steemit.com/freedom/@anonymint/non-decentralized-forums-are-clusterfucks-of-corruption

I challenge you to go into the archives of what @mprep deleted and find one instance where he posted two consecutive posts in any thread. There is not one case you can find.

Seriously, how can you discern what is “gibble-dee-gook nonsense” when you don’t understand technological discussions because you’re not a domain expert in that field? Do you seriously expect that a domain expert can explain to a 5 year old the intricacies of Bitcoin’s Nash equilibrium and Schelling points along with the technological nuances intertwined therein. Ostensibly you just believe everything Core tells you as gospel. Do you also believe everything every expert tells you? Did you believe the lie of the climate scientists when they said that man caused global warming. Did you believe NIST when they said that WTC7 collapsed due to a model which has been hence proven to be implausible?

What if you’re wrong and everybody who followed your advice to ignore Shelby loses all their real Bitcoins? Are you going to apologize? Or run away forsaking your anonymous online identity? Shelby is not anonymous. You are.

Your repetitive pattern of eating the “feeding the troll” troll bait is making it true.

Appeal to authority eh. And you how much credibility do you have?

You talk about yourself when you think you are talking about others. It is freakin’ hilarious.

The substance was provided. You have so many excuses as to why you don’t have time to read it, can’t comprehend it, or how it wasn’t written especially tailored for your comprehension.


Contemplating[BTFD and preparing to sell].

@anunymint provided it already.


Cats think animals that primarily sense movement can’t see them. They (small cats as pictured) are not interested in whether humans can see them. You’re not food.


So has @anunymint. And he has been a programmer for 40 years. You?


Lol. No there is no evidence at all for the government’s story. Once again you do not study the details.


Good you’ve come clean on that. I could certainly get the impression that you were trying to form an echo chamber and groupthink by slapping each other on the back for writing derogatory comments about Shelby’s attempt to help hodlers not lose their real Bitcoin.

You were around this forum for 5 years and you do not even know that Shelby was refuting Stolfi both here and at Redditard. You don’t get out much from this echo chamber do you?

Highly intellectual comments. Ty.

Indeed. That is why @anunymint did not try to make the argument strongly here. That would be futile. He obviously did not present the warning to help you. You are beyond help. He obviously presented the information for other reasons. And I doubt you can figure out what those reasons are.

Turn it off.
It is ~time for men without hats.

Oh hi.
Qualifying for round two.

Relaying from blogger.  

From the author

The Rogue Wave and coming nosebleed ATH and collapse of Core BitcOn (perhaps to ~$775 at the halving).

Everyone and their mother's mother heard about bitcoin by now, so this is curious.
"heard about" or "know about"?
Given that it was electronics class, I suppose these guys were not Amish?  
How old were they anyway, and where did you find them?


How many? Your estimate if you can recall?



So you explained to them how bitcoin is not a scam or a pyramid scheme, but can be profitable? What did you tell them then?  
Which part did they like so much that they decided to buy a book about it?

Please clarify.

Do not put words in my mouth which I never spoke.  

I actually specifically said "heard about" it - as in heard the term "bitcoin".


I haven't met anyone since 2017 who hasn't heard about something called "bitcoin".
And mostly they know it's some type of a currency.

I never mentioned Enron, r0ach did.
In fact, he could said "silver" there, instead of "Enron", lol.

Again, stop lying. I did not say that.



Then we could say same about this quote: 


But clearly we both made distinctions between "heard about" and "know about". 

I specifically wanted him to clarify because it was very odd to me that majority of electronics class students had not "heard" about bitcoin, when in fact everyone around me has indeed heard about it (and no, I don't imply they refused to buy it or whatever because they thought it's a scam). 

I tend to agree that many don't know about it (what it is).

That's all.

Relaying bytes:

Relaying words.

Meh, I don't know... I think nobody is forcing you to use Instagram... 

What do you think, isn't it basically a free market and there is just demand for "trash narcissism"? 
Would you shut down Instagram if you had power to do so, and why?

Can confirm, went outside once.  

Also glued to phones even when they are with their own kids, if they have any.  
Seems like there is always some trend which sucks them in to waste their precious time, recent one being "FaceApp" apparently. Something like when you put baby in front of TV then they can't take their eyes off it. Ironically, they laugh at that infant behavior.


Who/what is that?



Perhaps, but what do you propose then? It seems that nuking the Internet is not one of the scenarios about to play out.
What changes with that regard could have benefits on a country level, a firewall? National intranets? I presume you can't just shut down the whole Internet and not expect chaos.


True, but it's not going away anytime soon, so better look for a workaround such as finding a local community which condemns Tinders and divorces then you increase your chances to not find yourself in such situations. Besides, who wants to be a MGTOW loser?

I think r0ach is over 40 (at least over 30) because he double-spaces (unless double-space is standard for example in US military or something, or he's just being a clever kid, lol), so no college for him. So better we respect our elders when they try to teach us.

Indeed, and on-topic as well.

Perhaps skip to 2:18 if video seems too long.

Why guess? See for yourself. Takes even less time than writing your insightful post.
