Idea to increase chat liquidity: Have it open by default, and enable users to see recent history of comments (like slack, polo).

Performance issue: Seems to be some lag-issues when I switch between different tabs in the withdraw/deposit section.

Coming to the polls for the first time or at any time should not be a challenge. It should be as easy as showing up and filling out a ballot. And when the results show irregularities, they should be thoroughly investigated by the press and by an independent agency that holds responsible parties to task for any attempts at election fraud. Until then, every broken machine, every disenfranchised voter, every discrepancy between the exit polls and the final results will suggest malfeasance. Fix the system. We all know it’s broken. Tolerating it only exacerbates the problem and leads to more and more disillusionment that results in less and less voters. That couldn’t be what we want, right?

Is there a listing of any winners? (I did not see one)
It was a good idea worth repeating....

It was a proposal that they ended up not doing. Can't recall why.

There are users who intentionally went around claiming typo names so they could return the funds in the event this happened. I wonder if these accounts were one of them?

I think @fuzzy may know more.


unfortunately i do not know on this one. what i did early on was try to get accounts on bitshares for people who sacrificed a great deal for the project and had some level of reputation in the community   i did this in hopes of "benevolently" squatting on them and giving them to those to whom they should belong. i did this because the last thing i wanted was for many who were basically poor from volunteering for bts (instead of working another job as a secret bts holder and stacking) being charged outrageous sums for an account name i thought a person deserved.

however, it was not long after i went and did this that it was made public that names would be nontransferrable.

that was on the 1.0 wallet though and i have since stopped using it and even asked riverhead to separate all those accounts from my wallet.  if any of those accounts have ever received funding i do not know to be honest.

hmm... okay maybe it wasn't you, but damnit i know this was a thing. I distinctly remember reading a post where somebody benefited from it

@CLains was it you maybe?

Indeed, *puts on monocle*

I chanced upon the reverse squat white hat trick with bternames,  as you may recall from this old post.

Unfortunately I don't have any other ones.

Gentlemen,

I've been bullish on BTC due to the halving. It will be able to support a much higher price on the same level of demand and the market will start pricing some of that in.

I wouldn't be surprised to see it test $1000 before the halving.

(Edit: It can't support anywhere close to 6000 though even with only 4% inflation :) )

Don't forget the transaction cap of 1 megabyte per block. Bitcoin transactions capacity maxed out for the first last month, and block times slowed to over 40 minutes. Another bitcoin bull market could cause transaction confirmation times to balloon to an hour if not more.

Ironically, a new mega bull could provoke a crisis. Then it's fork or die.
