Bitcoin Cash gets DarkMarket and LULz from Torrent Site!

in #bitcoin7 years ago

You like it or not BCH exists and gets parts of markets.

TPB MAKES A JOKE OF BCH


Biggest torrent site accepts a few currencies but laughts of BCH.

On the other hand Dream Market has added BCH.

This is due to high fees on BTC they have decided to add BCH which can be exchanged with BTC on most exchanges.

Bitcoin Cash Markets


Its interesting to see this queque of exchanges with HitBTC on top and OkEX later with others.

Laughed so hard when I saw that too! Good job pirate bay - Bcash is a joke

BCH is no joke and TPB will eventually eat crow. It is a very unprofessional and juvenile jester.

BCH have a great future I'm sure.

Yes but they need to stop spamming bitcoin to try and achieve that as it put me off if they got spammed bcash network would be just as expensive and shit!

Please prove that there is "spam" and after you give an objective definition for "spam transactions".

There's nothing whatsoever suggesting that at any point with any level of adoption Bitcoin Cash (Bitcoin as per the whitepaper and Satoshi himself) would be having the same issues as Bitcoin Segwit is suffering due to its constrained blocksize and butchered incentives.

You've been duped by the side using sock puppets to call us the same. They censor and manipulate opinion constantly. Only recently did they lift the veil ever so slightly on r/Bitcoin and BitcoinTalk again, but by now they can not be trusted.

Satoshi would have been ashamed.

Nothing new. I honestly don't buy that the issues originate merely from "spam" by anone or any group. Even if there are small transactions, even if they are done intentionally and even if it should turn out that it was a coordinated attack even. It's not enough.

The rest remain the same.

The problem is obviously because of infighting and governance as the scaling issue does need to be solved still but spam is compounding the problem by causing network congestion and even higher fees

Haha, not with all the lying and fud you guys spread. And roger ver as your spokesman? You are as desperate as they get. You should throw in Harvey Weinstein while you’re at it.

There is no official spokesman for Bitcoin Cash. Let Satoshis own definition and early explanations be the authority on what Bitcoin is. There is no other.

bitcoin judas say what you want about him people like arseholes so he serves a purpose

There are plenty of assholes supporting all the different suposed implementations of Bitcoin. However there is one camp using censorship, manipulation and sidechains as a means to promote going against the white paper and Satoshis original plans for scaling.

Doing this is incredibly harmful and makes it something entirely different than Bitcoin as per Satoshis definition. The current ridiculous fees and "store of value" arguments with no basis aside, the accessibility of the main chain is being limited and the security of the network as a whole is being compromised one step at a time.

i support side chains as way to bring more features to bitcoin but sidechains as a way to scale that dumb

Yes, no problem with sidechains really if the main chain is not made less accessible (either by fee, lessened security or else).

I love the idea of rsk.co do you?

I'm not on any side as I'm holding both! I just don't like the tactics that is all which both parties are guilty of IMO!

I understand the technology and I'm not going to fall victim to FUD thanks I will make my own objective decision

I'm not on any side as I'm holding both!

Interesting to know, although the arguments presented are still the same.

Ignore all the FUD. Just don't ignore the facts.

Fact is,

  • Bitcoin Cash is Bitcoin per Satoshis definition and preplanned scaling.

  • Bitcoin Core team has censored, manipulated and stalled for years now. Trust will be harmed even if they shape up later.

  • The fees have reached insane levels and there is no knowing if ordinary transactions will ever be practical on the main chain again.

Still, also I want Bitcoin Legacy/Core to succeed and create something wonderful. It's the current as well as proposed product and the social behaviour of the main team and their fanbase which I oppose.

We just have to wait and see what comes out of it.

So what do you think about bitcoincash doing the EDA?

Live look at Roger Ver wanting to pay with BCH on Pirate Bay:

I'm not a BCH fan but I have bought enough to hedge my Bitcoin, as I have no idea what the future of the two will be. Will be interesting to see what happens to BCH if Bitcoin solves the high fees and slow transaction time problems. I'm surprised they are taking so long, giving their rivals a boost.

good, never keep eggs in one basket

True. While bitcoin cna scale there too much politics going on there. Altcoins haveway better chances for new tech :) But i still believe in bitcoins

True, I am working on getting many eggs into many baskets. @kingscrown

Many baskets.... this is a good one. I like it!

Thanks, I came up with it all by myself. @onealfa

BTC will solve the problems. It is just a matter of time.

BTC won't solve the problem. Segwit breaks security and the legal use case and Lightning is not peer to peer.

True, Bitshares and Steem are the only ones with all the checks. None of these coins can scale

Haha and Bernie Sanders and Haejin don’t exist.

Close your eyes and click on another post. It always helps for me.

On the serious note, that's an issue that will have to be solved with time. As a temporary solution, the interfaces could more carefully select what posts they display and how they display them. The information would remain available on the chain for anyone to access.

don't have to use segwit or lighting addresses if you don't want IMO

Not using segwit is impractical. If Lightning will be practical to avoid, that's what we don't know. They could make it that way, but we shouldn't need to trust that they will.

Using nonsegwit address are the reality at the moment unfortunately and compared to a bank transfer I still paid a lower fee and got a faster conformation time obviously for transferring value in the crypto space that is an eternity and expensive but until the exchanges upgrade we are stuck

That's not my point, although I will concur that segwit adoption has been slow. There have been good reasons for this however and maybe this can change soon. Hope it catches on fast, or that Bitcoin Cash does before/after that.

Good, now we know you're a troll.

Jimmy Song himself said it will be multi years for lightning to be implemented.

I listen to a lot of Jimmy's stuff on the World Crypto Network. I recall that there were multiple second level applications that were in the works. I will dig deeper into the timeline for implementation. There was a presentation somewhere that highlighted the impact secondary layer features to the overall network. I will post the key points if I'm able to find it.

Listen to his youtube stuff.. the new one is interesting where tone vays goes to say that bank controls are fine in bitcoin.. gota make a post about this..

When was this? Because it's already been more than 3 years. Not quite sure anymore when they first started working on it.

At 34:47 Jimmy Song answers when will lightning be implemented... This was last week...

Good catch. I missed that one.

Not sure if that's accurate anymore considering now they've at least published some demo stuff as opposed to before, but even if Lightning gets relesed and "works" in their own eyes, common use could certainly still be a few years down the road. (which by itself of course is not the main problem with Core anyways)

This is why bcash is such a loser. You bcash bitches just spread fud and lies and quote people who don’t know jack shit.

Please do your research. Look up Jimmy Song, he is a Bitcoin dev. He is also pro Bitcoin.

Not so sure about that myself unless you have evidence. But he's less obviously hostile than some at least.

He's also a writer at Coindesk on the issue so he needs to at least keep some objectivity, although I would question to what degree he has really been successful in that regard in his journalism.

Jimmy Song is more concerned of the technology than politics to be honest. But they are so biased towards the old blockchain 1.0 that they don't really care or just turn a blind eye to the community. With all these forks coming from everywhere, you gota think there has to be something wrong. It makes me think that even if it's really true and I think it is, that the bank has taken over, Jimmy will still be carrying the Bitcoin Core flag. Tone Vays don't care, as long as his Bitcoin is still there.

Thing is if they were really concerned with the old Bitcoin, they would be more concerned with the main chain. Which I'm not so sure that Jimmy is. Still, the more that can discuss without trolling, outright lying and smears the better.

Side note. Banks (any third parties, even sidechains or second layer applications) taking over is a risk that would be lessened by everyone running a single full, mining, node themselves. But the thing is this can't be done reliably so far. There's no way to check for identity without introducing gatekeepers and compromising privacy. Hence Satoshis choice to let miners specialize and have their long term incentives align by becoming invested in the system is still the best. (If a takeover happens, or if the developers simply don't make the right choices, a fork is of coruse always possible)

Unless they give cheap and widespread access to the main chain again so that a large number of small transactions can take place there, they have not even come close to solving the issue unfortunately.

This is about more than "merely" bringing down the fees at some point, even if that's a huge part of what makes Bitcoin Cash Bitcoin as per Satoshis writings, including the whitepaper. The debate has been censored on social media platforms and that's why the younger generation BTC speculators don't understand what the disagreement is about. This is about preserving the Bitcoin ("the blockchain") design (which includes on chain scaling through increased block size) in its complete and fundamental structure.

Got it. Thanks for the response.

It's not. While it might help to bring down the fees and be easier to adopt than segwit, it will not undo the current technical issues brought on by mismanagement of the blocksize. It will also not undo segwit or any of the other changes made.

Its good alternatives and can improve technical difficulties, and yes i do believe in a small block increase but not bch thinking that big block solve all.
I suggest you read my post

Sure. I'll have a look at it later. My opinion is not that big blocks solve everything either. As a matter of fact I've yet to come across a Bitcoin Cash user who thinks that's all there is too it.

Really? All the bcash supporters i find all say big block are the only solution.

They solve a lot, that's for sure. They solve the immediate issue with fees as well as the clogging of the main chain, which in a sense can be seen as analogous to "censorship" or "monopolization" of the network. But they don't safeguard against future social issues amongst developers, nor does it go far enough alone in restoring the features found in the original Bitcoin.

So even if Legacy found a way to implement Lightning in a manner that most Cash users would agree with, it still wouldn't make Bitcoin Cash as such a redundant implementation.

Unless they can find an alternative for segwit that fixes malbilty issue the lightning network can't be used or they add segwit then that another story....

Did you buy into all the other Bitcoin forks?

The other forks are 99% scams or just jokes created by Bitcoin Core/Legacy supporters. Satoshi was very clear when defining Bitcoin and explaining how it was intended to scale.

What I don’t get is why Pirate Bay would care. Unless they have a large stake in btc and believe bch threatens it why not accept a bch donation? What is there to gain by mocking potential donors?

To show their loyalty hoping to get more donations from bitcoin diehards

That is if the high fees of btc does not eat much of those donations.

They have a bech32 address :)

Sounds good. How much lower are the fees with a bech32?

Read this post https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@sames/bitcoin-newest-scaling-method-adding-bech32-plus-others
Bech32 can use segwit. So if bech32is segwit enabled and done on 80-90% transactions it would scale bitcoin 2.5 times

Edit: Completely misread you first. I don't see segwit as a solution, not even to the fee issue as such really. Hope it catches on soon though so we can at least move on to the next phase.

Segwit honesty is just a cover for the lightning network not a real scaling solution

Something tells me they sold all their BCH along with others and now they buy into the whole "Roger Ver + Bitmain Scamcoin own the majority of the coins and are just pumping it/trying to destroy Bitcoin" concept.

As if this makes much sense considering how big both of these players stake in Bitcoin Segwit is. If they just wanted more money, they could easily invest in app utility tokens or entirely different industries for much larger profits without endangering their Bitcoins.

Pirate Bay is fucking trash and their owners are dipshits... it's a good sign they are not attracted to Bitcoin.

Pirate Bay owners thought it was a good idea to hijack their customers computer power with The Hive as well.

Bitcoin cash going on top

I find it funny that there are so many comments from people claiming that "They do not like Bitcoin Cash." What that translates to me is "I like paying $30 fees or am pretty ignorant about the topic." and... nobody likes paying $30 fees ;)

Great news that dmarket has added bch. All the best to bch holders

Why would they even do that @tpb laugh of bch like that? To me it's unnecessary because they might have to option than to include its later

The currency that came to stay.
