As far as I can tell Bitcoin mining doesn’t become more decentralized over time. There is certainly a case to be made that decentralization can happen through competition between nation states but overall the mining industry is getting more concentrated.
You wrongly assume that have not made any research on the topic but since you seem to have some solid data proving that #Bitcoin mining is getting less centralized over time, please point me to it.
I am not responsible for your ignorance, nor am I responsible for fixing it for you. There is an enormous amount of information available on this subject, and understanding it takes a great deal of time and effort. You have to do more than read someone's blog. You have to actually study.
Good luck with your shitcoin.
Man, every time you chime in on my posts is to tell me how ignorant I am and how I should study Bitcoin more. Your contribution brings zero value to the conversation so please save you some time next time and just ignore my ignorance.
your shilling of shitcoins is a blight and I will point out your malicious bullshit at every opportunity.
Dude
if it's a shitcoin it's a shitcoin for a reason.
You should be able to articulate that reason.
Either do that or gtfo.
It's not bitcoin, therefore it's a shitcoin
that's intellectually lazy and antithetical to the effort made by cypherpunks who thought critically about tradeoffs and cost/benefit analysis.
gtfo with your religious bullshit
The religious bullshit is being a shitcoiner. I'm sorry about your condition, hopefully in time you will understand why "bitcoin only" is the correct answer. Until then, good luck with your shitcoins.
As for intellectual laziness, this is a great way to describe someone, such as yourself, who has not spend the requisite time and effort studying the space enough to have realized why "bitcoin only" is the correct answer. Or maybe you have spent a lot of time studying and you're just a slow learner. Hard to tell. Either way, keep studying, you'll get there.
look son
I was on BBS systems in 90s and saw the first cypherpunk wars.
so you can fucked with the "study harder" bullshit.
We'd probably agree that the bullshit hes describing is crap if we looked into it.
But until you take a look, STFU.
I know what shit he's talking about, I just do not need to write a dissertation on why it's a shitcoin.
i love the "look son" attempts to patronize.
you can do that when youre pushing 50 and some kid is trying to talk down to you
I'm over 50 and have children
making lots of bad assumptions for someone with "critical thinking skillz".
sure you are
If you understood anything about it you could make an intelligent objection.
Instead of just maxi Bible thumping
I am. I've been a professional software engineer since the mid 90's. I have two children, a boy 12 and a girl 9. I dunno what else to tell ya, son. I'm not going to dox myself, but I am certainly telling you the truth about myself.
like I told the other shitcoiner, your ignorance is not my fault and fixing it is not my responsibility. If you want to spend time studying another shitcoin so you can make "intelligent objections" go for it.
nice story bro 👍
It's true. I'm sorry you are so skeptical about people you don't know. Believe what you want.
Classic Maxi script
"Everything I don't agree with Is bullshit.
No I won't explain why.
Go fuck yourself"
Congratulations on being the problem with Bitcoin
the only one saying things like "go fuck yourself" is you.
the problems with bitcoin include things like centralized block template production and core soft forking bullshit into the code. People pointing out shitcoinery is certainly not "the problem with bitcoin".
anti-inrellectual maxi zealotry certainly is a big problem.
having a large mass of people involved who cant think critically about the tradeoffs that Bitcoin makes is NOT an asset.
And yes it does make trade-offs, it's not perfect. So quit pretending like you can ignore everything other existing technology.
attempting to disguise your shitcoinery behind the veil of "it's intellectual, bro" does not actually cloak it.
you absolutely can and should ignore all other monetary network protocols. If you have not gotten that far in your understanding, then it's realizable to study them. After enough years of it, you'll come to the correct answer of "bitcoin only" and at that point you can save yourself time by not investigating every "my new staking shitcoin is better than bitcoin" claim in order to discredit it on social media
calling out shitcoin scams is not "anti-intellectual zealotry". That's just some rhetoric shitcoiners use to say "this time it's different bro!".
There are reasons that things work or don't work. And understanding those reasons are important.
sorry not sorry
Must be nice to drink the Kool-Aid and avoid all responsibility for actual thinking.
This is just "I read saifdean's book and think I understand something about the nature of money"
"Don't you know that all money returns to one bro"
also he didn't say his shitcoin was "better than Bitcoin" he was asking a question about node decentralization.
You just got triggered by somebody mentioning something else.
"bitcoin becomes more centralized over time" was just one of his shitcoiner statements I was responding to.
You're not calling out shit bro
You're just waving the Maxi flag because it feels good to be a member of a group
You have nothing to add
You have no criticisms to make
Just "I dont like this speech"
A quick look through the op's profile and he hasn't mentioned this thing before as far as I can tell so he's scarcely a shitcoin shill.
But you're so sure he's asking a rhetorical question so he can "promote a scam".
Get over yourself
and he wasn't asking a question, his question, as I already explained to you (perhaps English isn't your native language so this subtlty was lost on you) was just a rhetorical device he was using to promote a shitcoin.
he was shilling a shitcoin. Therefore by definition he's a shitcoin shill.
You should work on your English skills.
Nobody can deny that there's a problem with centralization of the aspects of the network. Mining in particular .
It's a reasonable thing to have a conversation about.
Unless you're a zealot apparently.
I deny there is a problem with centralization of hashing
There is, though, a problem with centralization of block template production. Spoiler alert, his shitcoin doesn't fix that.
Zealot: noun: a person who is fanatical and uncompromising in pursuit of their religious, political, or other ideals.
Yes, guilty as charged.
these are both problems.
also
they are not the subject we are talking about
hashing is highly decentralized and getting moreso every day.
