please

I got into crypto a week ago. It snapped me out of my depression and I spent all my spare time reading about it an analyzing coins. All I've done is fuck up and lose $70. Today I lost my job without warning of any kind. It would have been nice if any of my coins had seen a net gain in the last two days.

Tfw have always had suicidal thoughts
Tfw just learned to deal with them

It's been difficult

>oh my god the small miners bullshittery again.
they exist, whether you like it or not
>as for nodes, it's a fucking meme argument.
it isn't
>if blocksize was increased, you're maybe looking at 500gb tops after many, many years. 80 bucks for a 2tb hdd .if you can't devote a couple hundred gigabytes in hd space to run a node then fuck off, you're telling me these "small miners" can afford thousands of dollars on dedicated mining hardware but can't afford a fucking seagate hard drive.
Network has to be pervasive and be everywhere, even poor places. It isn't just about hard drive, it is also about bandwith and a lot of other factos. For example having blocks too big would make it impossible to run a node through TOR, which would stop a lot of people from running it (remember that not everyone leaves in peaceful zones, and that governments constantly try to seize the network or destroy it so anonimity is of prime importance to nodes).

Either way you keep missing the point. Segwit + Shnorr + LN isn't just more elegant, but also an overall better solution that has 0 disatvantages and countless advantages. That itself already makes it the best choice by default. Everything else? Roger is pissed off because he's crypto rich, but unlike rich people in the "old world", he has no power on the network, he does not decide the policies like Roshschild for the FED does. He has lots of bitcoins, he can have an easy life, but that's all he has, nothing else. That is why he's buying websites millions of dollars just to sell this new bitcoin where he and a handful of others have all the control, without the peer review, the open sourceness, the accountability, the criptography and the science.

>Tfw seeing my coins drop 50% in one day doesn't even bother me anymore

there's always some nigger that sells for 1 btc as soon as a new coin hits an exchange. They are just being retarded to FUD. They can see Bancor slowly creeping up and the sell walls get destroyed, so they are getting scared as fuck they missed out (which they did)

>>2524844
stop with the damage control. There's nothing childish in their answer. Emin is a retard, I would have had even harsher words for him, he's the kind of guy that farts in bottles and opens them to smell his own hot air.
>>2524848
do you really think that your FUD on a mongolian weaving board will have any effect? Did you niggers even tried the complete platform on testnet? Did you not notice the team has ties to Facebook? Can't you faggots make 2+2? This is why you'll always be poor.
>>2524872
They will, don't worry about it. They are being so scrupolous that the reason trading was delayed is exactly because they are making the platform as strong as possible.They already partially answered Emin's ramblings before he made a blog post about them anyway:

>>2524893
They shouldn't have done shit, if you don't like the platform don't invest, but don't come up with "muh PR" bullshit because that's not an argument.
>classic scam tactic of screaming FUD and making personal attacks against their critics.
bitch pls, you clearly have no idea how scams in crypto look like
>Everything Bancor does sets of my scam alert.
then don't buy it, nobody gives a shit

>ad hominem

It's OK lad, I see I've struck a nerve here. But really, OP asked specifically about mining bitcoin, I agreed with another anon who said OP was about 8 years late to the moon mission and then for some reason you jump in talking about ETH.
