become a problem. lets say an exchange is hacked, something big and somewhat clear that the coins were stolen. maybe 2/5 of the PoS users decide to undo it and give them back to rightful owners. 04:01 < adam3us> rest of PoS users argue that would break fungibility & irrevocability. as anyone can rewrite entire history any time at nominal cost, they go ahead and do that and now there are differing views of who owns which coin and no arbitrating function as there is no global consensus via PoW, which leaves sort of political consensus. 04:02 < MRL-Relay> [othe] that happened already in the case of "vericoin", they rolled back the blockchain when an exchange called "mintpal" got hacked which was later sold to a scammer called ryan kennedy who serves jailtime 04:03 < btcdrak> adam3us that exact scenario played out with Vericoin on Mintpal 04:03 < adam3us> isnt there a fair risk the PoS would fragment and collapse if no one can be sure of who owns what. once its happened over something like a heist, that invites increasingly lower barriers: scams, non-delivering ASIc manufactuers (scam? or just bad at making asics) and fake thefts where someone makes a good story of theft but really the new owner is legitimate and they were former owner 04:05 < adam3us> yes. it can happen to a PoW chain also if the control is too centralised (or that the economic super-majority goes nuts and does it) but the difference is there is only one chain. if you do that with a PoW chain (split it in half) either its the same network, and there is one true chain 04:05 < adam3us> or it splits which requires one group to make something incompatible intentionally with the one chain (eg transaction rollback not supported by hash majority or format flag). 04:06 < MRL-Relay> [othe] just imagine btc was a pos coin and what kind of power mark karpeles/mtgox would have had on it; thats enough to see how that stuff can never work out 04:06 < adam3us> so then doesnt PoS devolve to political money, which is the status quo with banks & governments, just now its with an assortment of variously trustable coin speculators, scammers and regular folks 04:09 < adam3us> you also cant very easily split the PoW coin or it becomes less secure and/or the forks can hashrate attack each other. 04:21 -!- damethos [~damethos@unaffiliated/damethos] has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds] 04:30 -!- arubi

Of course smaller network coins are much easier for the devs to control. I am not sure something like that would fly given the size and diversity in bitcoin. regarding the hack, it's all very interesting because when you think about the incentives and game theories about how coin security/mining etc works, it's amazing 11:00 < btcdrak> how that Mintpal hack highlighted something PoS design never considered, they assumed people will use their own wallets to stake, but actually a vast number of users, rightly or wrongly use exchanges as wallets and therefore PoS based on % coin ownership etc is ultimately fragile. In PoW we tend to think of miners having all the control, but I think 11:00 < btcdrak> exchanges hold much more power as individuals because they are are the fiat gateways and if miners want to get paid, I'm not sure they'd be willing to play tug-o-war. 11:02 < btcdrak> adam3us, what I hope is that bitcoin can stay free from political powers not because of some ethos, but because we somehow build it into the system. a large network with many participants certainly goes a long way to diluting powers but I think we're a long way from it. Arguably interventions by developers that affected fungabilty would devalue the entire 11:02 < btcdrak> system so maybe that is a protection. 11:05 < btcdrak> adam3us but longer term I do wonder how long it is before governments want to intervene and have "safeguards" for virtual currencies. If bitcoin grows to the point of being "too big to fail", I am sure it will become a political issue. 11:10 -!- jcrubino [~jamesrubi@unaffiliated/jcrubino] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:15 -!- ryanxcharles [~ryan@2601:9:4680:dd0:9c8a:10f4:762d:38ff] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:19 -!- jcrubino [~jamesrubi@unaffiliated/jcrubino] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 11:20 -!- NewLiberty [~NewLibert@2602:304:cff8:1580:805d:481f:d702:8848] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 11:30 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:30 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has quit [Client Quit] 11:31 -!- Burrito [~Burrito@unaffiliated/burrito] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:31 -!- arubi [~ese168@unaffiliated/arubi] has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds] 11:36 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:38 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has quit [Client Quit] 11:38 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:43 -!- Tjopper [~Jop@dhcp-077-249-237-229.chello.nl] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:44 -!- hashtagg_ [~hashtag@87.97.60.195.pool.invitel.hu] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds] 11:44 -!- hashtagg_ [~hashtag@82.131.241.235.pool.invitel.hu] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:45 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 11:45 -!- arubi [~ese168@unaffiliated/arubi] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:51 < adam3us> btcdrak: i guess the interesting thing is bitcoin gets its assurance comes from apolitical properties. will require some thought process rewiring from the sorts of things government/central bank information and economic assurance programs focus on now, which being conventional tend to utilise political control as their mechanism, because thats all they have. 11:52 -!- afk11 [~thomas@86.46.16.201] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:58 -!- rusty [~rusty@pdpc/supporter/bronze/rusty] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:59 < Adlai> in the coindesk article about vericoin, isn't calling this a "hard fork" a misnomer? this is a deliberate history rewrite, not a fork of the consensus protocol 12:00 -!- rusty2 [~rusty@pdpc/supporter/bronze/rusty] has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] 12:06 -!- wallet42 [~wallet42@95.6.28.61] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] 12:06 -!- wallet42 [~wallet42@95.6.28.61] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 12:06 -!- wallet42 [~wallet42@95.6.28.61] has quit [Client Quit] 12:07 < kanzure> adam3us: many of the apolitical things are apolitical in a different sense. petertodd would probably argue it's all politics. just subtle and nuanced and in software instead of headspace. 12:07 -!- priidu [~priidu@unaffiliated/priidu] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 12:07 < kanzure> adam3us: http://diyhpl.us/wiki/transcripts/mit-bitcoin-expo-2015/peter-todd-scalability/ 12:08 -!- priidu [~priidu@unaffiliated/priidu] has quit [Client Quit] 12:08 -!- whitey [~GERwhitey@c-174-48-86-2.hsd1.fl.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds] 12:08 < kanzure> although this is not one of his better arguments for why things are political 12:08 < kanzure> nevermind actually. 12:09 -!- priidu [~priidu@unaffiliated/priidu] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 12:13 -!- priidu [~priidu@unaffiliated/priidu] has quit [Client Quit] 12:13 -!- priidu [~priidu@unaffiliated/priidu] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 12:16 < sipa> there is probably a big difference between political "involving the opinions of people" and political "what present day politicians concern themselves with" 12:22 < kanzure> true; it's a little cringeworthy to see people only now discovering how open-source projects operate :-) 12:23 < fluffypony> they keep thinking of FOSS projects as "companies" 12:23 * fluffypony is growing tired of correcting it 12:24 -!- tcrypt [~tylersmit@c-67-169-17-114.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 12:24 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 12:25 < kanzure> maybe we should just point them to old eric s. raymond rant emails or something 12:25 < kanzure> and black out the date so they don't go "hey wait a second" 12:25 < fluffypony> lol 12:26 -!- phiche [~Adium@c-4cf1e555.017-265-73746f1.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has quit [Client Quit] 12:26 < fluffypony> my favourite quote from the other day: 12:26 < fluffypony> When are crypto developers going to learn...
