Technically, you’re not mining at home.

Rather, you are part of a pool. The pool runs a node and you contract to sell computational hash power to that node. Unless you have a few hundred million dollars’ worth of hardware at home you are not mining.

Running a node involves every step in section 5 of the White Paper.

People tell you that you are mining, but unless you are creating blocks yourself and propagating them, ordering transactions, validating transactions simultaneously in the block you are creating and not merely taking a hash puzzle from a pool, it is not mining at all.

In effect, you are an outsourced electricity provider and lessor of equipment to a mining pool on a short-term basis. The thing people don’t seem to understand is that the validation and ordering and propagation functions are not outsourced at all and these remain in the pool.

Consequently, it is really just a funding mechanism for the pool node.

I know people don’t like to hear this, but the truth is that there cannot be that many nodes in bitcoin and when you’re talking about miners it is very limited.

I am glad, technically, you are supporting that Pool in aiding in the validation of transactions.

So.

Owner. Owned, ownership.

These words are noted over 20 times in my White paper.

Possession.... zero

Currency, once.

But, that relates to fiat. Not bitcoin.

Section Ten: Privacy"

I don’t mention identity or rather identities that often in my White Paper. I did in some of the earlier drafts, but they became too long. I think my earliest draft of the White Paper was sixty pages. That said, the section on privacy notes that identities are firewalled from the transactions. As such, it is very important to note that identity does exist in bitcoin.

In section 10, my White Paper has a figure that mentions the “New Privacy Model”. This section does not say that people are anonymous. The nature of pseudonymous exchanges requires identity. However, what you will see is that the public transaction chain is separated from the identity information. Those exchanging goods and services can also exchange identity. Additionally, there are methodologies for cryptographic forms of proof that will link identity off-chain and out of the public eye while maintaining the integrity of any information.

You will note that I say that bitcoin achieves a level of privacy. I do not state that it achieves complete anonymity. What I do say is that a trusted third party does not need your information. To think about this, you need to understand that there is no longer a trusted third-party fiduciary with information about the individuals who were exchanging. There are requirements for identity to be maintained directly, but that is separate from third-party exchanges.

You will also note that the system requires all transactions to be publicly announced. So if you read that section, you will see that we break the flow of information in another place. I do mention the word anonymous, but this is to do with pseudonymity. The public cannot link a transaction. As I note, it is similar to a stock exchange. In the ticker tape, only limited information is publicly made available. However, all of the information concerning the identity of the parties is known by the brokers and the owners.

Think about this in more detail. I’m referencing an analogy of a stock exchange and the ticker tape. The public information is the ticker tape, and that is analogous to the Blockchain. At no point will people believe that the stock market works without identity. The owners of shares are known. They may not be publicly announced, but that is not the issue in this section.

Silk Road was trying to create a system that was balanced in favour of the criminals.

The criminal got yo be private, but the victims (users) sold their identity to the criminals.

The user sends bitcoin etc, the criminals have your address and a proof of complicity. This lead to child exploitation, blackmail and worse.

"By March 2008, Wright testified, he had a handwritten version of what would become the bitcoin white paper. He reduced that to a 40-page typed version, then a 20-page version, then a 10-page version, which is what he sent Dave Kleiman, he said"

It does not matter that 1 million home users find an error. They can’t do anything about it. The only way to report an error and reject the block is to find a new block.
 
Consequently, the entire claim that anything other than a node defined in the White Paper in section 5 that creates blocks matters is false.

It is not just misleading.
 
The claim being presented that UASF nodes have any power in any Blockchain system is misrepresenting the nature of the system as far as to even go into fraudulent misrepresentation, and it is bordering on criminal fraud. Those people promoting this are deceiving investors.

Un tribunal de Londres se negó el miércoles a revisar una decisión que otorgaba al científico informático Craig Wright los derechos de propiedad intelectual sobre la "biblia bitcoin". https://law360.com/articles/1449017…

To perjure is to knowingly make misleading or false statements under oath or to sign a legal document that you know to be false or misleading. The claim that these people have not been able to tell what a node is when a node is very clearly defined in my White Paper to be a system that creates blocks is when taken in any other light misleading.

Anybody who tells you that a bitcoin node can be counted if it has never created a block is lying and disseminating a false statement. Those who are bitcoin developers know the difference and understand what a node, is but they are actively promoting a falsehood to cover their lies and crimes.

It will not be me who faces perjury charges. It will be the members of COPA and the BTC developers who have actively promoted a falsehood in court that go and face perjury.

The claim that nodes can be unknown is also false. The Blockchain is always going to broadcast the addresses associated with a node that has found a block. Simply put, any exchange that accepts transactions from a system that is breaching rules and court orders will be cut off from the global financial system and hence, will cease to exist.

Moreover, you can enforce against the known miners. Any miner that fails to implement controls is also going to be held in breach. That is, even if only 50% of miners were known, that would be sufficient because the sale of blocks to exchanges that are unknown would need to be recorded and hence known.

Every single node utilises systems that go through the United States. Everyone users systems that go through Britain and Europe. The so-called claims that these are isolated are false. The Fibre relay network in itself forms a foundation that be acted against.
