I like Raoul Pal, and what he brings to the crypto space, BUT I just can't have him take credit for the "Banana Zone" comment when it's purely theft from literally the nicest guy there ever was in crypto Carter Thomas ... AND (for the record!) IT'S BANANA TOWN!!!!!!

Question. As the reward gets less and squeezes more and more miners out of competing with large arrays, doesn't that make it more centralised as the process goes on? How to ensure a diverse plethora of miners?

Let's be honest WhatsApp is turning into "Western WeChat", next they'll be offering CBDC's and connecting your passport details. It's the WEF dream remember? "you'll all have nothing and you'll like it!"

I'm open to hearing what this "advanced technology" is that may alleviate my concerns.

backin5mins @backin5mins.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
My point is the opportunity to do that has already happened, which means that the integrity of the chain has imo already been compromised, with less than a million dollars.

I appreciate the open conversation and will get back to you. What I will say is that, if all stakers are private it leaves room for a coordinated covert 51% attack.

Privacy at different levels. Privacy we all want and know is that "cash is king", so the privacy we crave is really at the transaction level.
000
backin5mins @backin5mins.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
When you're still transacting within the confines of a network, you need to know who is in control of that network, so that you know that you're not being manipulated in some way. Like being able to see the gold at the "not"federal reserve for what was a gold back currency.

Hahahaha, yes, floor should be floor (speak and type!) Don't you see a problem with that ethos? In much the same way the Bitcoin community refuse to acknowledge the question of "who is satoshi"? 🤷

backin5mins @backin5mins.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
I think privacy over the control of the network is a major floor and that some things need to be open and other things need to be private. For example, the top 10 ethereum wallets hold almost 60% of total supply. While there may be valid reasons for this, the information is not secret

I've lived 20 years in HK, through the protests and watched the geopolitical pantomime for most of my adult life with an open mind. I know how lobby groups work & crony capitalism. Thinking your nation is completely above that is blinkered.

I think I already am. I loved PIVX before, I was in your discord, Bitcoin,s, Monero, Z Cash, Pirate Chain, Zen (whatever it was B4) ETH, ADA the list goes on. What you get when you join a discord is an echo chamber of that chain's evangelism. So I decided to shut down my discord all together.

Wow! Digging around for an angry, accusatory character assassination, because you didn't want to reflect on your own belief in another post. I feel a little bit sorry for you. Enjoy the salad.

Do you ever think about who appointed the judge and the jury? Do you ever think that the winners of war write history? Do you ever consider that you're just one side of the same coin?

In 2023 with the piv price at around 7 cents it would have cost someone less than one million pounds to take full control of the network. No one would know, because the network is security based and the wallets can't be tracked how do you address this issue?

It's weird that that's the exact same language that people identifying as Republicans used to use about the Democrats. It's completely flipped and here has become a complete mirror image of there. Surreal.

Just watching Kier Starmer in Paris on BBC news and his whole body language, the way he walks, his mannerisms, he just looks like a man that doesn't really know what to do with himself, awkward, his whole aura is "I don't know what I'm doing". 🫢🫣😬

I don't really know enough about the in's & out's here, but there seems to be an awful lot of righteous tutting in support of the DRC, which as far as I'm aware is hardly the bastion & blueprint of a working democracy. You'd think we were living in never-never land.

Sorry, I didn't see an acknowledgement that the exploit was in fact exploited. The article I posted presents what appears to be evidence of an actual exploit occurring. All PIVX articles suggest "potential" exploits were dealt with without being exploited. Which appears to not be the case.
000
backin5mins @backin5mins.bsky.social · 15/02/2025
Perhaps they can publish exactly what happened? That article seems to expose that the chain was exploited, and the developers just deny deny deny. www.infosec.pro/2021/11/20/u...

Honestly, back then, it was my favourite coin to play with. Then all this happened and it left more questions than answers. It felt shady and I left.

I believe I'm thinking it's the fake stake attack 2019. The trouble back then was the ownership was so thin, PIVX whales could easily own 51% of the network and no one was the wiser. PIVX obviously denied this. Was the network compromised? What is the long term implication going forward?
000
backin5mins @backin5mins.bsky.social · 15/02/2025
A long time back, maybe 2017/18 I'm guessing. I know because I liked PIVX when it first came out and it hurt. Google searches aren't showing up for it though. Maybe they've done a good job scrubbing those articles. 🤷

backin5mins @backin5mins.bsky.social · 15/02/2025
How about it's 51% attack, can a chain ever really recover from that?

Ndiaye's injury while playing for Everton in the derby is going to rank up there in lists of bizarre injuries for a long time. Still don't think it'll beat getting out of bed and stepping on a 3 pin plug, but I just can't remember who did that ... help appreciated 🙂
