big scary monsters posted:doesn't the fact that people are going to be creating transactions which are 99% fees mean that the blockchain spam is going to be much harder to circumvent this time around? in the last stress test you could just set your tx fees a little higher and still get to the head of the queue, but here fees are going to be really high on all the spam transactions. and most of those high fee transactions willl never actually go anywhere because they're all double spends

i am at the nearby library, about to check out "good prose: the art of nonfiction" by the two guys who wrote "the soul of a new machine", one of the best pieces of writing about technology ever published, waiting for my wife to get back from the art books the very first paragraph is about establishing trust with the reader by assuming them to be of equal intelligence. i think i'm on the right track here, i just have to not rush this Xelkelvos posted:This is going in the book, hopefully? maybe? i don't think this counts as a scam but it might fit in the chapter that's basically "bitcoin itself is a meta-scam because everything good about it is a lie" quote:Also the hamburger example? probably not. it's funny but it doesn't fit the tone

“A big part of the value of this project will not be in direct revenues, but in brand recognition,” DPR writes, according to a message found in the email account. “Google makes the vast majority of its revenues from ppc ads, but still maintains world-class free email for everyone because it brings them into their ecosystem. Silk Mail will hopefully do the same for Silk Road, which will likely continue to be our primary revenue source.” The team can “throw $20k/month at this,” DPR wrote, before suggesting, “Silk Phone anyone???” i'm the android phone developed by ross ulbricht

CampingCarl posted:I don't know if this sort of attack is enough transactions to fill the blocks up that low fee transactions are significantly delayed. Sure lots of people are spamming transactions to the pool but this time only one of them has to go in the block and all the other transactions from that are invalidated. If the blocks are filling up then yes you are right. It is, because the nature of the attack means that the transactions being submitted are very large

Greyhawk posted:in a meeting now quote:I'll sit the rest of this mess out. I think Coinwallet will still face charges, because they can't credibly claim they have no responsibility for what is happening. It's like dumping bushel baskets of coins out on a busy road and trying to claim that the resulting carnage and mayhem is not their fault, just the fault of all the pedestrians and drivers involved. quote:the police cares about law. and ddos is breaking the law in many jurisdications. quote:They do not exist and violate in several jurisdictions the Anti-Money-Laundering (AML)-regulations as well as anti-terrorism-laws. So most probably, it will not be any "police" who will try to nail them down, but financial market authorities. government please save bitcoin

JaysonAych posted:mempool is at 111k transactions and climbing transaction number means nothing still. all that matters is mempool size, which is 94MB right now, it got to 300MB in the last stress test and they intend for it to go to 1GB this time.
