Let me explain something to everyone about bitcoin. The protocol is fixed. There is a unilateral contract that was set in 2009 when the product was released. That contract has no provision for change. Rather, it has a promise of stability. While some of the codes that are currently disabled will not be re-enabled anytime soon others will be. None of this will impact any existing transaction now all that may exist in the future. But, you have no guarantee or promise of when some of the other codes that are not currently used will be implemented and you shouldn’t be developing anything that is based on them.

The operation of nodes is very simply defined in overview in section 5 of my White Paper. This is not negotiable. It does not matter that you don’t like it. It does not matter if you think it can be optimised in a better way or improved. That is it. Simplicity is actually a good thing in complex systems.

There is no consensus on block cap. Honestly, I’m getting tired of this and it should be what can be handled by the majority of nodes. That is by computational power. If the size of the blocks is too large for a node, this is capitalism and that node goes out of business. If you want to run a rasberrypie go to BTC.

In time... It will be an INTERESTING year

I won't say more for the moment

Welcome to another day in Bitcoin

I am going to make this nice and clear.

Nodes prune. Any old transaction, any old data, anything that has been spent can be pruned.

Equally, this does not mean that nodes need to prune. However, you cannot guarantee that your data will not be pruned. Nodes (note, nodes are exclusively miners) have the option of keeping or removing data at will. There is a section in my White Paper if you don’t understand this.

Equally, nodes can maintain a complete copy if they so choose. They can equally require payment for access. There is no requirement to distribute the entire Blockchain. In section 7 on page 4 of my White Paper, the reclaiming of disk space may be achieved by removing old spent transactions and even the branches. Block headers can be kept in memory and no more.

The development of overlay networks allows for the complete history to be maintained for limited subsets of the entire Blockchain. This will allow individual token issuers including some of the people on here to have a limited copy of the Blockchain that only serves their clients or people on their token system. Honestly, I really don’t understand why people think you need to validate everyone else’s transactions.

I wrote the code in 2007.

It was incomplete, the settings only became fixed in Dec 2008

The paper was in Many iterations

The last PoW version was in 2008.

It was released in May 08, then Oct 08

Then Nov 08

Finally set in Feb 09

Some parts of the paper go to 2003

But, then it was a PoS system

It was stated that a Byzantine problem needs 2/3rds agreement

It always ends in this as an oligarchy

Does anyone have the block ID with the bitcoin White Paper was stored in the database off the top of the head?
