this is a hard concept, so i'm not going to hate on you for not getting it right away, but think about it.

mining is what imbues a mineable with value. mining is the provable destruction of one form of value so that people agree the thing mined has the value of that thing destroyed. mining converts ordered energy measured in the form of watt-hours of electricity used, into waste heat, an operation which is not reversible (at least not at any scale). the SHA3 hash is proof that the computation was performed (i.e., that the value of one thing was destroyed), since the only way to get the SHA3 hash is, according to everything we know about math, is to do the computation, therefore to consume the electricity, therefore to destroy one value and imbue another thing with that value.

sure, it is a weird thing for humans to get together and agree that this is what constitutes value, but you can't cheat it, and that's what's valued above all. exactly like BTC. similar to digging gold out of the earth. it's an ancient concept reimagined and understood in a new context.

BTC also uses the hashpower to secure the network. 0xBTC outsources that job to Ethereum. that's what makes it brilliant. that's what will prevent 0xBTC from becoming only a store of value like BTC. transaction fees in BTC are denominated in the store of value itself, so transaction fees rise and rise. but Ethereum is just gas, it is not supposed to be a store of value.

Your attempts at feigned superiority are not going to work. You are describing why mining has value to BTC, which is not relevant to 0xBTC.
Mining bitcoin has value because it ensures nobody can double-spend or steal bitcoin.
Mining 0xBTC has no value because the Ethereum miners ensure nobody can double-spend of steal 0xBTC.

i would say you've hit the nail on the head, sort of, in one respect: 0xBTC is "just" another Bitcoin clone. yeah, it is as faithful a Bitcoin clone as you could hope to get w.r.t. the value-proof mechanism. and it's on Ethereum, the world's best distributed trustless computer.

but please read my post again if you can somehow continue to believe "which makes 0xBTC mining completely irrelevant". you don't get all of what makes mining valuable.

0xBitcoin is purer in the value-proof sense than Bitcoin. it is just provable destruction using `keccak256(challengeNumber, msg.sender, nonce) ≤ miningTarget`, which cannot be faked.

Bitcoin's limitation is that it also mixes securing the network into the value, muddying the value proposition and leading to the types of problems you see in the cost of sending it.

but the fact that 0xBitcoin is more pure in the value-proof sense doesn't mean that it is automatically "better" than Bitcoin. who knows. the value will rise with time as more people come to understand it -- or more likely, they will just take their cues from the herd without really understanding it -- or not enough people will buy into the idea, and the value won't rise. predictions like that would be easy to make, but dumb. we just have to wait and see.

the thing that's provably the case is that there currently are a bunch of people certifying their belief in 0xBitcoin by mining it. the proof is there in every `mint(uint256 nonce, bytes32 challenge_digest) ` call to the 0xBitcoin smart contract, which is regulated unchangeably by the contract to about 1 block mined (50 0xBitcoin) every 10 minutes, just like Bitcoin, using `keccak256(challengeNumber, msg.sender, nonce) ≤ miningTarget ` just like it should.

LURKERS & NEWFAGS BEWARE - 0xBITCOIN WAS A BIZ PND THAT THOUSANDS OF ANONS GOT BURNT ON IN 2018

0xBitcoin was a /biz/ invented FPGA miner scam token.
Almost everywhere online 0xBTC threads are deleted, ie plebbit, its that big of a scam.
The actual daily 24hr volume on 0xBTC is under $10,000 - CMC reported volume is 95% wash trading
Don't believe me then buy $300 worth of 0xBTC and watch the price move by 20%

Around the time that these miners were pumping 0xBTC they shilled /biz/ CONSTANTLY with it.
There was at least 15-25 spam threads about it daily up until they dumped their bags on all the anons buying in.
It was a coordinated pump and dump and these 0xBTC scamming faggots think that /biz/ has forgotten about what they did.
Lots of anons were fooled into buying it at $2-$4.
Now there are tons of bag holders of this shitcoin and ALL of the 0xBTC threads on /biz/ are made by these miner faggots where they coordinate /biz/ shilling in their 0xBitcoin discord.

This project has a better chance of always being worthless than even worth $5.
No one will really tell you the truth about this scam because so many ppl were suckered into buying it on /biz/
Truth is, not many ppl are smart and wise to scams and it takes a high IQ to realize that 0xBTC is a miners scam token.
What's more is the FPGA miners mining this shit are now only making about $0.08/0xBTC and it keeps dropping.
It's incredibly not profitable for anyone besides FPGA fags to mine this shit.

Don't fall for this fucking miner scam token, its always going to be worthless.

also, i'm not mad at Satoshi for mixing the proof-of-value and securing-of-network concepts together in Bitcoin. he didn't have a global distributed trustless computer like Ethereum available to him at the time. so he blended it all into one (tho not turing complete), which was fine. still brilliant.

now we have Ethereum, so we can have pure proof-of-value mined cryptocurrencies like 0xBitcoin. 0xBitcoin has first-mover advantage in the Ethereum domain (actually mined with PoW, not fake stuff that just borrows the "Bitcoin" name but not its proof-of-value mechanism).

but Bitcoin is still a great store-of-value coin. it got first-mover advantage. it's just not good for anything but slow, high-value payments due to transaction fees.

if you don't see the value yet, think harder. at least try to explain why this is wrong instead of just saying "total shitcoin":

1) mining is proof-of-value: it imparts the value of the consumed, irrecoverable energy to the thing being mined, and does so in a provable way since `keccak256(challengeNumber, msg.sender, nonce) ≤ miningTarget` cannot be faked. everyone agrees that is the rule of the game.

2) 0xBitcoin borrows proof-of-value-via-mining from Bitcoin, but gets its security-of-network by running on Ethereum. therefore it has the value mechanism of Bitcoin without its transaction limitations.

just try. have an open mind and think through it carefully.

please explain how you can possibly think this is true.

remember that the hashpower of 0xBitcoin mining pools, of which there are or have been about a dozen-ish, has no relevance to the security of the network. that's unlike Bitcoin, where a sufficiently large mining pool can do a 51% attack. so large pools are no threat to centralization.

besides, look at the mining distributions.

this is the same thing people said about BTC in 2010. "it's worthless ... can't buy anything with it ... useless as money"

it's useless as money until it's not. the thing is, are you going to be in the evangelical early adopter group, or in the group of people kicking themselves, forever.

if you can evaluate 0xBitcoin on its actual merits and see how little it has standing in its way -- namely "it hasn't been adopted ... yet" -- , then good for you. you can get in there, invest early, help build it, and profit. if you can't, too bad. most people are in the latter group.

we already went over the fact that you have to build the technology for it to exist. Are you mentally challenged? 0xBitcoin is a bet on Bitcoins properties on Ethereum. Its pretty clear you cant reason about economic properties of assets and instead are stuck on the fact you cant buy a coffee and the liquidity is too small for you to cash out your dozens of hundred dollar bags. The rest of us are trying to have a discussion on technology and economics and its pretty clear you need a high chair to sit at that table.

it has none of bitcoins properties. the main proterty of bitcoin that makes it a useful thing to have is that i can exchange it for fiat in 212 countries without too much hassle. 0xbitcoin is yet another shitcoin because to get real money you have to sell it for btc first.

This is the root cause of the error in your thinking. Mining does not imbue value on its own. Mining can only increase the cost of obtaining something that has inherent value.
I'm not some Luddite who doesn't get that energy expenditure can be considered a way of generating transferable value. It's simply that 0xBTC is just another BTC clone and nothing in that long, long list has a viable value proposition.
0xBTC is inferior to BTC, and inferior to at least five SoV ERC20s. A trustless BTC<->ETH bridge will render it immediately useless, at which point it might as well be called 0xBSV.

ok well thanks for replying.

are the "five SoV ERC20s" you're talking about mineable? are they mined as much as 0xBTC? (rhetorical question, i know they aren't.)

a trustless BTC<->ETH bridge would be cool. there is nothing to show that this is possible, and everything to show that existing attempts are infected with centralization.

"blindly optimistic" would imply that they are optimistic while ignoring the things going against it. there's nothing standing in the way of 0xBitcoin except a lack of adoption so far. that is inherent to new things. but having little standing in the way, that is not something many projects have (a monarchy, a premine, an as-yet-to-be-tested value proposition, etc.).

ok, i see. david hoffman is like, "i will use this centralized piece of shit because it's the only way i can get Bitcoin mechanics on Ethereum", so he is aware he is using something despite his fundamental dislike of some aspect of it. therefore, self-aware demoralization. so, useful term.

would you say Bitcoin had "inherent value" (whatever that is) on day 1, 30, or 365?

does water have "inherent value"? i paid $400 to get a few hundred gallons of it removed from my hallway. but at a concert i paid $3 for less than a liter.

so ... define "inherent" value

that’s interesting but value doesn’t just come from what it cost to make, people have to find it valuable subjectively as well. if i continually dig holes and fill them in again, that isn’t something people would find valuable enough to pay me for.

that said, if 0xbtc takes off then the cost of mining does become part of its value. there’s a bit of chicken and the egg.

>that said, if 0xbtc takes off then the cost of mining does become part of its value. there’s a bit of chicken and the egg.

mining doesn't "become a part of its value". the amount of money that someone is willing to spend to mine one 0xBitcoin (well, the cost of mining a block divided by 50, since 50 0xBTC is the block reward for now) is close to its currently perceived value, assuming a rational miner, but the value itself is subjective, just like you said. so, not trying to split hairs too much, but i disagree that it's a chicken-and-egg situation with respect to cost of mining. i know it's a subtle difference, and i do agree with you that ultimately the value is subjective.

for example, right now i can mine with a CPU miner [CPU mining is not practical anymore] and spend like $10,000 mining one block of 50 0xBTC, but that doesn't mean my mining determines the value. i'm just being not being a rational miner in that case.

belief that 0xBTC fills a need (a mineable [proof-of-value], low-transaction-cost [fees paid in ETH, not the underlying mineable] token that can interact with smart contracts on currently the world's best distributed trustless computer [Ethereum]), that is what determines the subjective value.

its kinda a chicken and egg in that its value is entirely determined by its demand. It just so happens theres two ways to meet the demand: mining and buying. For some people the opportunity cost is worth it because they already have hardware and a desire to own (and trade) the asset. other people see an opportunity to buy hardware and sell it because they perceive others wanting the asset. Others see the properties of the asset being favourable in addition to the work being done on it and buy and hold (or swing trade). The only reason to mine is because its value is determined by the market which in turn depends on demand.

>mining doesn't "become a part of its value"

it's really hard to phrase right. i like to say that mining imbues the mineable with value. but mining is actually just proof that you believe it has a certain value. it doesn't somehow force others to believe the same, therefore it doesn't directly set the value somehow. sorry for splitting hairs, always trying to refine the language for talking about a subtle topic.

kind of an interesting thing is that mining is basically the ultimate decentralized exchange. it turns ever power outlet on the planet into a potential provably-paid exchange, assuming you have a GPU or other piece of hardware that can mine at a price acceptable to you.

nice concise way to put it. i wish people in the crypto world broadly understood that mindblowing concept. it's just too new a concept, so right now we have people buying coins and tokens imbued with "value" only by the promises of ICO teams and their crystal-ball roadmaps. as it stands, "mineable" is constantly perceived as "omg that's inherently bad and wasteful".

Mining isn't a necessity for security with 0xBitcoin. It still operates with the same mining functions actions such as difficulty changes and reward per block or halving every 4 years. It's Bitcoin in a smart contract that is forever locked. No single person owns the contract. Infernal_toast deployed it.
>>14725295
Competition just like with Bitcoin. Miners mine and essentially compete to earn that 50 0xBitcoin per block by finding the correct nonce. It just doesn't need mining to keep it afloat. Ethereum the network it lives on, secures it. ETH was never meant to be used as the defacto currency for the network. It doesn't even interact or can interact with ERC-20 tokens on its network. 0xBitcoin is trustless pure mined hard currency on the Ethereum network without a central owner.

What creates value or could create value would be ERC-20 compatible dApps.
