I feel bad for those on the streets, but sometimes I think they could try harder. Laziness plays a role. They don’t realize they can create income through skills instead of waiting for a job.

Some folks still don’t get it, despite being around since 2013. Instant gratification from gambling has messed with their heads.

Look at PayPal. Clear demand for transaction processing. Store of value is quieter. Monero seems to have a leg up on privacy.

Here’s the NUGS address for anyone wanting to help out with bounty support. Thanks in advance! NUGS Wallet #: TBD Official launch of Nuggets is here. Excited to see how the VGB protocol performs integrated in a coin.…

Well, it only matters while he’s still trying to beat it. His words really have spooked the markets.

As a newbie in the professional world, it’s easy to get lost chasing titles and promotions. But honestly, life’s not just about that.

Nope, Bitcoin can't work without human touch. Even those who built it know that. Look at all those shitcoins out there. Most don’t work because nobody uses them. Bitcoin has proven itself, and that’s why it keeps…

Wait, how is it that LN is also prone to double-spending? Can someone break that down?

So, double-spending is a risk with LN too? Does that mean we’re in the same boat here?

What even is the deal with double-spending? Does Ark have some issues with that? I read their FAQ and it made me go hmm... also, no BTC donations through Ark? Kinda suspicious.

Here’s what I think would happen: billions wasted, Bitcoin keeps running, and people might see transactions as reversible for a while. If a government tries this, they might even get sanctioned by others.

There’s no joy in a stressed job. Sometimes you feel like quitting, but the pay keeps you stuck. It’s tough to find something else that pays as well.

Found this one that works with nVidia: check out ccminer. It's not perfect, but it runs.

You could use hashcat for benchmarking. Sadly, no updated Bitcoin mining software that supports CPU or GPU.

Not sure about OP, but I've noticed they don’t respond to comments here but are creating new threads.

Does this program support SHA x86 extensions? Like, do modern CPUs have dedicated SHA-256 ASICs or is it just software emulation?

But if we keep things as they are, it doesn’t solve the fee problem long-term. Something’s gotta give.

Exactly. It’s not feasible to pull off a 51% attack with current ASIC prices. The barriers are too high.

If Bitcoin goes up, miners will follow the money. But yeah, it’s an expensive game. A 51% attack is crazy costly.

I think the network's security is at risk if fees don't keep pace with block rewards. If it’s too cheap to transact, who will bother?
