Did Wikileaks Destroy Bitcoin as Satoshi Nakamoto Predicted?

Soft block size limit reached, action required by YOU

Quote from: satoshi

"Hi Mike,

I'm glad to answer any questions you have.  If I get time, I ought to write a FAQ to supplement the paper.

There is only one global chain.

The existing Visa credit card network processes about 15 million Internet purchases per day worldwide.  Bitcoin can already scale much larger than that with existing hardware for a fraction of the cost.  It never really hits a scale ceiling.  If you're interested, I can go over the ways it would cope with extreme size.

By Moore's Law, we can expect hardware speed to be 10 times faster in 5 years and 100 times faster in 10.  Even if Bitcoin grows at crazy adoption rates, I think computer speeds will stay ahead of the number of transactions.

I don't anticipate that fees will be needed anytime soon, but if it becomes too burdensome to run a node, it is possible to run a node that only processes transactions that include a transaction fee.  The owner of the node would decide the minimum fee they'll accept.  Right now, such a node would get nothing, because nobody includes a fee, but if enough nodes did that, then users would get faster acceptance if they include a fee, or slower if they don't.  The fee the market would settle on should be minimal.  If a node requires a higher fee, that node would be passing up all transactions with lower fees.  It could do more volume and probably make more money by processing as many paying transactions as it can.  The transition is not controlled by some human in charge of the system though, just individuals reacting on their own to market forces.

Eventually, most nodes may be run by specialists with multiple GPU cards.  For now, it's nice that anyone with a PC can play without worrying about what video card they have, and hopefully it'll stay that way for a while.  More computers are shipping with fairly decent GPUs these days, so maybe later we'll transition to that.


Satoshi said back in 2010 that he intended larger block sizes to be phased in with some simple if (height > flag_day) type logic, theymos has linked to the thread before.

I think he would be really amazed at how much debate this thing has become. He never attributed much weight to it, it just didn't seem important to him. And yes, obviously, given the massive forum dramas that have resulted it'd have been nice if he had made the size limit floating from the start like he did with difficulty. However, he didn't and now we have to manage the transition."

"How long have you been working on this design Satoshi?  It seems very well thought out, not the kind of thing you just sit down and code up without doing a lot of brainstorming and discussion on it first.  Everyone has the obvious questions looking for holes in it but it is holding up well "

La palabra HONESTO aparece 15 veces en el White Paper de Bitcoin, mientras DESCENTRALIZADO no aparece ni una sola, personalmente me gusta el concepto de descentralización por la robustez que ofrece en la seguridad y la potencia en la gobernanza, pero si todo eso no está regido con honestidad, no creo que valga de mucho.

"La guerra de las recompensas

BTC cuenta en la actualidad con el 96,2% de la potencia de cálculo, mientras que BCH tiene el 2,8% y BSV el 1,1% restante. En términos de capitalización bursátil, BTC también ocupa una posición dominante, con un 66,6%, y continúa siendo a su vez la criptomoneda líder en el número de nodos que sustentan la red. Sin embargo, tanto en la cifra de transacciones como en el tamaño de los bloques, Bitcoin SV ya ha tomado la delantera a las otras dos cadenas. En efecto, Bitcoin (BTC) ha sido la criptodivisa dominante hasta la fecha. Sin embargo, el cambio de tendencia puede encontrarse muy cerca".

Congratulations to Satoshi on this first alpha release. I am looking
forward to trying it out.

It's interesting that the system can be configured to only allow a
certain maximum number of coins ever to be generated. I guess the
idea is that the amount of work needed to generate a new coin will
become more difficult as time goes on.

One immediate problem with any new currency is how to value it. Even
ignoring the practical problem that virtually no one will accept it
at first, there is still a difficulty in coming up with a reasonable
argument in favor of a particular non-zero value for the coins.

As an amusing thought experiment, imagine that Bitcoin is successful and
becomes the dominant payment system in use throughout the world. Then the
total value of the currency should be equal to the total value of all
the wealth in the world. Current estimates of total worldwide household
wealth that I have found range from $100 trillion to $300 trillion. With
20 million coins, that gives each coin a value of about $10 million.

So the possibility of generating coins today with a few cents of compute
time may be quite a good bet, with a payoff of something like 100 million
to 1! Even if the odds of Bitcoin succeeding to this degree are slim,
are they really 100 million to one against? Something to think about...

"La libertad nos hace responsables

El doctor Craig Wright, creador de Bitcoin, pronunció una interesante charla sobre fraude y criptomonedas en la conferencia SIGMA19, que se celebró esta semana en Malta. Wright afirmó que la diferencia entre el verdadero Bitcoin y los tokens anteriores es que Bitcoin suponía un libro de contabilidad abierto. «La única innovación de Bitcoin fue hacerlo público», aseguró."

"...Friedrich A. Hayek, «la libertad no solo significa que el individuo tiene la oportunidad y la carga de la elección, sino también que debe soportar las consecuencias de sus acciones y recibir alabanzas o censuras por ellas. La libertad y la responsabilidad son inseparables»."
