| gavinandresen | bramc : nifty idea. I've been saying for years I'd like to see more diversity in the network protocols that are used to relay bitcoin transactions/blocks | 09:13 |
| gavinandresen | ... and doing that doesn't require any sort of fork at all... | 09:13 |
| sipa | bramc: define "make them count" ? | 09:14 |
| bramc | gavinandresen, uTP is basically a swap-in replacement for TCP. It wouldn't change things all that much except to make NAT traversal easier | 09:14 |
| bramc | sipa, Apparently the graph showing a huge drop in full node count *might* be caused by a change in methodology where they stopped counting nodes which can't accept incoming connections, which might be most of them | 09:15 |
| sipa | bramc: there are two ways in which full nodes "count", one is towards the network (which requires them to be reachable, have bandwidth, serve and relay blocks, ...), another is towards the decentralization of validation (which requires people to pay attention to what they're doing, using them to validate their transactions or connect other bitcoin software to it) | 09:16 |
| bramc | speaking of which someone asked me where that data came from and I have no idea. If anybody knows the original source I'll pass that info along. | 09:16 |
| sipa | bramc: of the first afaik, we have plenty | 09:16 |
| sipa | bramc: the second however is not measurable | 09:16 |

| bramc | The other dumb question is, uh, does bitcoin core pull in miniupnp? That makes a big difference in how likely something is to be reachable. | 09:19 |
| hearn | yes it does | 09:19 |
| nubbins` | quick question | 09:22 |
| nubbins` | why do we pretend that there are less than 6,000 nodes when that's actually the number of nodes running 0.8.x or higher? | 09:22 |
| bramc | nubbins`, Do you have info about where these stats come from? | 09:22 |
| nubbins` | bramc bitnodes.com footer states explicitly | 09:23 |
| nubbins` | just wondering why nobody cares how many nodes there /actually/ are. | 09:23 |
| nubbins` | er bitnodes.io, whatever it is | 09:23 |
| nubbins` | "Bitnodes uses Bitcoin protocol version 70001 (i.e. >= /Satoshi:0.8.x/), so nodes running an older protocol version will be skipped" | 09:23 |
| sipa | my seeder counts around 4300 well-reachable one, a historically low number | 09:23 |
| nubbins` | sipa: you wanna see historically low numbers, check how many of the nodes in the hard-coded seed list are still alive :D | 09:25 |
| nubbins` | (for those of you playing at home: about a half-dozen) | 09:25 |
| sipa | nubbins`: that list is updated every year or so | 09:26 |
| sipa | and node IP mobility does not mean a decreasing number | 09:26 |
| -!- frankenmint [~frankenmi@c-24-22-67-17.hsd1.or.comcast.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 09:26 | |
| nubbins` | ah. maybe once a year is a bit long. | 09:26 |
| nubbins` | we're talking 1% of hard-coded nodes being reachable here | 09:27 |
| hearn | well, that's why there are dns seeds too | 09:27 |
| hearn | the hard coded list is meant as a kind of nuclear bomb shelter in case of some kind of big DoS attack/disaster | 09:28 |
| wumpus | yes, the hard-coded node list still needs to be updated for 0.11 | 09:28 |
| hearn | but sure more frequent refreshes would be good | 09:28 |
| nubbins` | agreed, not much of a bomb shelter atm :) | 09:28 |

| bramc | nubbins`, I don't know the answer to your original question, but the answer is likely some combination of 'there are very few nodes that old and we didn't feel like supporting it' and 'nodes on that old of a protocol are so poor performing they're doing more harm than good' | 10:09 |
| nubbins` | bramc i'm not so sure those are the reasons, and i'd love to see the numbers on how many total nodes there are. | 10:10 |
| sipa | total nodes? | 10:11 |

| nubbins` | the cynical part of me thinks that ignoring pre-0.8.x nodes is part of a greater push for getting rid of nodes that don't want to play nicely with newer "features" being rolled out | 10:13 |
| nubbins` | but that's probably silly | 10:14 |
| nubbins` | after all, why would anyone want to use something like bitcoin to further their own personal objectives? | 10:14 |
| BitcoinErrorLog | probably not, thats likely to happen even as just apassive influence | 10:14 |
| nubbins` | hopefully i'll have popcorn handy when the block size thing gets pushed out | 10:15 |
| nubbins` | then we'll really see how many nodes there are, and what they're running :D | 10:15 |
| bramc | *if* the block size thing gets pushed out, then there *will* be a fork | 10:16 |
| bramc | And two competing blockchains which different peers are constantly arguing about which is the newer one | 10:16 |
| bramc | As a practical matter, peers will soon have to identify whether they're on the fork or not, to make the networks be physically distinct and stop them from DDOSing each other. | 10:17 |

| nubbins` | surely large mining operations are running the latest phoundation release ;p | 10:22 |
| bramc | nubbins`, I said 'hard' fork, there have been many 'soft' forks, which means extensions which older nodes would accept but not themselves create. To date, the current block chain would have been accepted by the very first version of bitcoin ever released. | 10:23 |
| bramc | hearn, Also new miners who think the >1mb block is bullshit | 10:23 |

| bramc | nubbins`, There's also a difference between an incompatibility of the blockchain and an incompatibility of the peer protocol. I don't know if that second one has ever happened. | 10:24 |
| BitcoinErrorLog | wasnt 0.8.0 the almost-fork that had to be handled actively after the fact? | 10:24 |
| bramc | nubbins`, It's certainly the case that peer efficiency has been improved enough that an original codebase peer would be doing more harm than good in the current network even if it could talk to anything. | 10:24 |
| hearn | the soft vs hard fork distinction is deeply questionable. you really don't want "backwards compatibility" when auditing things | 10:25 |

| BitcoinErrorLog | :/ | 10:25 |
| bramc | hearn, What? | 10:25 |
| -!- jae is now known as Guest43254 | 10:25 | |
| bramc | BitcoinErrorLog, How so? (I'm honestly asking, I don't know what bit of history) | 10:25 |
| fluffypony | precisely what hearn is saying is why we're doing this: https://forum.getmonero.org/4/academic-and-technical/303/a-formal-approach-towards-better-hard-fork-management | 10:25 |
| hearn | let me try an analogy. think of a full node as like a human auditor checking the books. now imagine some clever trader somewhere else in the company who wants to execute a clever trade, but knows that the auditors will reject it | 10:26 |
| fluffypony | it would be a more monumental challenge, but I would be interested in Bitcoin adopting a similar periodical fork | 10:26 |
| hearn | so the trader goes to his colleague and says, hey bob. how about we come to an arrangement. when i send you money and put in the notes field that this is a trade for a ton of coal, i want you to interpret that as actually being a ton of gold | 10:26 |
| BitcoinErrorLog | I forget the details bramc, wasnt it a Berkdb issue? i remember all the miners having emerggency meeting with devs to revert and stop the fork from happening | 10:26 |
| nubbins` | BitcoinErrorLog yes | 10:27 |
| hearn | bob says, "uh why alice"? and alice says, well, if we put in "ton of gold" the auditors will flag it as a bad transaction. we could go all through the process to get this type of trade accepted, but it's quicker if we just bypass them | 10:27 |
| hearn | call it backwards compatibility | 10:27 |
| nubbins` | it's just a config update ;/ | 10:27 |
| bramc | BitcoinErrorLog, Oh right, the result of that one was that the implicit restriction of the older shittier nodes was accepted | 10:27 |
| fluffypony | nubbins`: no | 10:27 |
| fluffypony | well | 10:27 |
| fluffypony | it was a BerkeleyDB issue, but not BerkeleyDB vs. LevelDB | 10:27 |
| hearn | now - would this be accepted in a real company? hopefully not. though maybe given the behaviour in the last few years..... | 10:27 |
| fluffypony | it was BerkeleyDB (bad) vs. BerkeleyDB (good) & LevelDB | 10:27 |
| hearn | as the goal of the auditors is to fully understand the transactions and check the ledger. if people are fooling them with clever tricks, that audit is being undermined. | 10:28 |

| hearn | do you see this argument? | 10:28 |
| bramc | So there was a temporary fork and it was fixed by rolling back to the pre-fork protocol | 10:28 |
| bramc | hearn, I have no idea what you're saying. Are you arguing against backwards compatibility as a goal? | 10:28 |
| hearn | when it comes to consensus systems? yes | 10:28 |
| -!- darwin_ [~darwin@88-103-255-166.jes.cz] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 10:29 | |
| hearn | obviously in most software systems backwards compatibility is highly desirable | 10:29 |
| bramc | hearn, You're on crack | 10:29 |
| hearn | as it is for things like bitcoin p2p protocol, etc | 10:29 |
| nubbins` | <fluffypony> it was BerkeleyDB (bad) vs. BerkeleyDB (good) & LevelDB << +1 | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | I 100% agree with bramc | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | erk | 10:29 |
| hearn | bramc: that argument is "not excellent" :) | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | I mean | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | I 100% agree with hearn | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | you don't know "who" is running a node | 10:29 |
| hearn | hehe :) | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | you can't communicate with them directly | 10:29 |
| nubbins` | hell, even i could be running one | 10:29 |
| nubbins` | or six, or w/e | 10:29 |
| fluffypony | so the only thing you can do is drop them off the network if they don't upgrade | 10:29 |
| hearn | well, there is a middle path | 10:30 |
| hearn | nodes that can't fully audit the ledger any more can still be useful - for serving and filtering the chain for others | 10:30 |
| hearn | if there was a way to have a hard fork trigger a shutdown of the RPC interface, for example, and maybe flagging somehow (~NODE_NETWORK?) that it's now in a kind of 95%-SPV mode, it may still be a reasonable thing to do | 10:30 |
| hearn | as SPV clients could still benefit | 10:31 |
| hearn | however, businesses relying on the quality of the audit ..... well, if they want to opt-in to pseudo-spv mode, that's fine by me. | 10:31 |
| hearn | but it should be something they knowingly accept | 10:31 |
| hearn | anyway this is why the whole argument for soft forks has never convinced me | 10:31 |
| bramc | There's a fundamental difference between forking the block chain and dropping support for old versions of the peer protocol | 10:31 |
| fluffypony | bramc you're not forking the network | 10:32 |
| fluffypony | the network is moving forward and outdated participants are left for dead | 10:32 |

| bramc | There's a reason why HTTP has moved forward while DNS has not | 10:33 |
| kanzure | isn't dns a consensus system of some kind | 10:33 |
| fluffypony | it's a poor comparison, though - protocols are mostly governed by committees | 10:34 |
| fluffypony | when did they seek public input on whether SPDY should be part of the protocol? | 10:34 |
| hearn | HTTP/2 is the equivalent of a "hard fork", so ...... not sure it's a great suggestion. it's totally incompatible with HTTP/1 except at a high semantic level | 10:34 |
| kanzure | i think the bitgo person submitted a spdy ietf rfc.. if that's what you mean? | 10:34 |
| fluffypony | kanzure: I mean that the userbase "at large" don't care about changes to SNMP, TCP/IP, DNS, or anything else | 10:35 |
| fluffypony | even companies heavily invested in a particular protocol tend to care very little | 10:36 |
| kanzure | (perhaps the user base would be better not using bitcoin if they don't care about its features (even if it may be objectively safer for them to use, i don't know about forcing them)) | 10:36 |
| bramc | hearn, No you aren't getting it. DNS is a database, HTTP is not. Hence incompatible changes to HTTP can be made much more frequently than can incompatible changes to DNS, which happen essentially never. | 10:37 |
| hearn | sigh. DNS is not a consensus system. my argument applies to consensus systems. where you want to audit every last change. | 10:38 |

| bramc | fluffypony, As in the people pushing it give up and drop the subject | 10:45 |
| nubbins` | fuck the partisans | 10:45 |
| nubbins` | the amount of astroturfing and obvious shilling re: block size increase is pretty lel-worthy | 10:45 |
| fluffypony | yeah the Reddit hivemind stuff is a little annoying, hard for some people to see the wood for the trees | 10:46 |
| bramc | It isn't a mystery who's behind the push for the block size increase, they're in this channel with us now. | 10:47 |
| hearn | there is zero chance of that. even if me and gavin vanished in a puff of smoke, other people would do it instead. | 10:47 |
| hearn | (as was made clear to us by the number of people asking when the new XT will be ready) | 10:47 |
| bramc | By 'other people' you mean people on reddit who don't understand the subject but have gotten whipped up into a fury about it because they like having causes to rant about. | 10:48 |
| fluffypony | bramc: quite | 10:48 |
| hearn | not at all | 10:48 |
| hearn | but believe that if you like | 10:48 |
| BitcoinErrorLog | anecdotal observations nonetheless | 10:49 |

| andytoshi | actually those i's should be 1's | 12:51 |
| waxwing | yeah that one, but even then, it's m_i-1 is the last index | 12:51 |
| -!- darwin_ [~darwin@88-103-255-166.jes.cz] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 12:51 | |
| waxwing | i couldn't find any way of making step 3 look right. but, it's not as if the basic idea isn't obvious. | 12:51 |
| waxwing | just seems that the notation is off. | 12:51 |
| andytoshi | yup | 12:51 |

| andytoshi | waxwing: there are two sG - eP phrases; the first should have {1, m_0 - 1} as its subscript, the last should have {n, m_n - 1} | 12:52 |
| andytoshi | i think that fixes it | 12:52 |
| waxwing | right | 12:53 |
| waxwing | that was what i was hoping | 12:53 |
| waxwing | andytoshi: so shouldn't it start at j_i* + 1 in 2c? | 12:55 |
| andytoshi | waxwing: it is always assigning to j+1, so i think that covers it | 12:55 |
| andytoshi | i'm pretty sure i copied the code directly for that line, so i hope it's not wrong :) | 12:56 |
| waxwing | andytoshi: but in (b) you already set e_{i,j_i^* + 1} | 12:56 |
| waxwing | heh | 12:57 |
| andytoshi | oh, hmm, shit | 12:57 |
| waxwing | a few bitcoins here there, no big deal :) | 12:57 |
| andytoshi | lol | 12:57 |
| andytoshi | if there is a corresponding bug in the code it'd completely break the sigs, i'm not too worried .. i'm sure i transcribed it wrong | 12:58 |
| waxwing | yeah i know. much of our security is based on this principle. "If it had any bugs it woulda crashed by now" :) | 12:58 |

| andytoshi | in any case, yeah, i transcribed it wrong, the code has the loop offset in a weird way so that step (b) is absorbed into (c) | 13:00 |
| andytoshi | so you are correct, i will fix the range in the doc | 13:00 |
| waxwing | andytoshi: somehow reminds me of that old fallacy: "well, if you can decrypt it, it must be the right key, so it's authenticated, right?" | 13:01 |
| waxwing | (not this particular case, just the general idea) | 13:01 |
| andytoshi | i'm actually laughing out loud, but still shouldn't be funny.. | 13:01 |
| gmaxwell | whats weird is that I thought I checked the agreement with the writeup there. | 13:02 |
| gmaxwell | verification is hard because of confirmation bias. :( | 13:02 |
| andytoshi | gmaxwell: the range in the writeup is the same as the range in the loop; difference is what part of the loop tmp is assigned (where `tmp` is the input to the hash function) | 13:03 |
| gmaxwell | it doesn't help that the software and the paper use pretty different nomenclature I guess, maybe I should have updated the software after the document to agree with the markup. | 13:03 |
| andytoshi | it's a pretty subtle thing, one of us Should Have Caught It but i'm not too suprised it got thruogh | 13:03 |
| andytoshi | well, the paper can just say H(some algebraic formula), the code needs to have temporary variables and stuff, i don't think you can force them to match | 13:03 |
| gmaxwell | and indeed, there are classes of mistake that I probably do not look for because if they're made they are just guarenteed to not work at all. | 13:03 |
| andytoshi | without adding a bunch of temp variables to the writeup that'd leave it unreadable | 13:04 |
| gmaxwell | andytoshi: e.g. the code can line by line reference the writeup even where they don't exactly match. | 13:04 |
| andytoshi | ah, right | 13:04 |
| waxwing | i wouldn't pay much attention to this kind of thing; there is a certain flexibility in interpretation of notation like that, and the preceding section of the doc makes it pretty obvious how it *should* work. no matter what you happen to call the various indices. | 13:04 |
| waxwing | i mean yeah fix it but it's not like someone's going to "accidentally" code it wrong. | 13:05 |
| gmaxwell | sure sure, but, you know.. advancing the art. I wouldn't want to waste a second of anyone's time on stuff like this. | 13:05 |
| andytoshi | waxwing: welll, the hope is that you can reimplement from the writeup, if you need to look at our code that seems like we're wasting future programmers' time | 13:05 |
| gmaxwell | so they might not actually ship something wrong they may waste a while trying to get it right. | 13:05 |

| gmaxwell | waxwing: cost of an optimized implementation is a bit more complexity. OTOH, .. less for the ringsig, but very much for the range proofs-- building an optimized first implementation prevented me from making some pretty severe design errors that would have greatly hurt performance. | 13:10 |
| gmaxwell | so I can't say I regret doing that instead of e.g. making a super simplistic python implementation. | 13:11 |
| -!- lclc [~lclc@unaffiliated/lclc] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 13:11 | |
| waxwing | gmaxwell: yes the thing it made me think about was whether it's possible to somehow split things like (prevent timing attacks) from (program logic). i guess maybe it isn't. | 13:11 |
| andytoshi | waxwing: the kind of support where you do free in-depth review for us and we answer questions that (should be) at the front of our minds anyway? yeah, we are saints ;) | 13:11 |
| andytoshi | this is seriously really helpful, most projects of this algebraic complexity do not get any review | 13:12 |
| Mably | gmaxwell | 13:12 |
| gmaxwell | (wrt performance, in the range proof, I avoid the ringsig commiting to all the derrived points; which means they don't ever need to be converted back to affine corrids, which is a non-trivial performance impact) | 13:12 |
| Mably | may be you already answered, but have you studied Sumcoin compact confidential transactions? | 13:12 |
| andytoshi | Mably: i am in the process of studying it, don't have anything more to say than "cautiously optimistic", sorry | 13:13 |
| andytoshi | (at this point) | 13:13 |

| gmaxwell | mrkent: I know sipa has repeadily over and over raised the concern about making hardforks in the face of controversy. | 15:04 |
| gmaxwell | It concerns me greatly. | 15:04 |
| PRab | To me is an "I wish I had a time machine" topic. | 15:05 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: I think that the rules change in and of itself is not the gravest concern, if you imagine a change that is necessary for the survival of the system and that everyone (or very very nearly so) agress with, I don't see a /huge/ cause for concern there. | 15:06 |
| gmaxwell | Ideally the system could never change but, mistakes are made... we can't engineer something so perfect. | 15:06 |
| mrkent | gmaxwell: I mean if you feel strongly about this, maybe you should redirect debate this very different question | 15:06 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: I'm unable. I've tried. At least on reddit people are very much might makes right. | 15:07 |
| mrkent | Well, what were your points? | 15:07 |
| gmaxwell | In any case, if you look at the history of soft forks you'll see there have been many backwards compatible rules changes that were completely uncontroversial. These things don't worry me. | 15:08 |

| bramc | mrkent, I brought up the bad precedent argument, along with many others.

| bramc | We can probably get consensus around 1mb :-P | 15:10 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: That the value of the system is that it's resistant to change, and that if you're fine with a system ruled by political whim you should stick with the fiat of a major democracy. That with bitcoin we hope to approximate cryptographic security, where your control of your funds is autotonymous and as free from other people's choices as possible. And that changing the system in ways detrimen | 15:10 |
| gmaxwell | tal to their interest out from under a substantial minority of users is a taking, that its unethical, and that it undermines the primary value proposition of the system, even for the majority. ::shrugs:: | 15:10 |
| mrkent | I mean the fact that there are is debate over arbitrary #s is insane | 15:10 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: yea, specific values aren't so much of a concern for me. Thats really not the point of the concern. | 15:11 |
| bramc | mrkent, It's become clear that the hard fork would really and truly result in a fork, with effectively two bitcoins which have to be treated independently. | 15:11 |
| mrkent | bramc: I think personal blogs won't do as well as a self.post or medium post or something | 15:12 |
| gmaxwell | Concerns are the implications of forcful changes to the rules of the system, long term security incentives, short term market incentives between miners, preserving the system's decenteralized properties, and missing out on the pressure to actually improve things. that kinda stuff. 2MB is about as good as 1Mb is about as good as 500k, actual numbers aren't critical. | 15:12 |

| mrkent | I think perhaps the way to say this is: 1. why don't we also increase the 21m limit while we're at it? 2. or inflate btc relative to economic growth? | 15:14 |
| gmaxwell | an interesting thing I learned is that lots of redditors think there existing a huge network partition is no big deal! like, they think thats its (likely to be) a recoverable faulure! | 15:14 |
| bramc | gmaxwell, And a flooding 'experiment' which demonstrated nothing whatsoever. | 15:14 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: I made that point, actually had a very interesting discussion with one person where he argued miners should control the block limit, and I said well why not also the 21m cap. And delightfully, he responded saying they probably should control that too! | 15:15 |
| brand0 | gmaxwell, crazy! | 15:15 |
| gmaxwell | I thought that was like the best discussion ever, because at least his position was logically consistent! | 15:15 |

| bramc | Let's also let miners decide whether bitcoin is a PoW or a PoS system | 15:16 |
| mrkent | I feel like a lot of this comes from fear of BTC not scaling thus bitcoiner's investment does not go up | 15:16 |
| gmaxwell | It's not completely crazy to say miners should control the 21m cap... its just that the reason the rules exist even against miners is that we use the rules to keep miners incentive aligned, we don't "trust" miners except at arms length. But if your mental model is that miners are trusted by definition, why not let them control all the things? | 15:16 |

| mrkent | I mean which one of us doesn't want the price to go up | 15:18 |
| mrkent | but we're risking all that makes bitcoin special in the process | 15:18 |
| bramc | mrkent, The price of bitcoin right now mostly is indicative of the amount of electricity which is burned mining. I for one view it going up as a bad thing in and of itself. | 15:19 |

| gmaxwell | mrkent: sure, absolutely. but different time horizons. But I can't draw any seperating lines, it's not like all the people with one perspective fit into one box. | 15:19 |

| bramc | The undermining of the integrity of the bitcoin ecosystem implied by a fork is likely to hurt the value of BTC more than whatever value increase could be had from the modifications anyway. | 15:20 |
| gmaxwell | (I get seriously downvoted on reddit for saying things like that) | 15:21 |
| bramc | gmaxwell, But fiat currency is TEH DEVIL! | 15:21 |
| bramc | It's a funny thing in the bitcoin community that the biggest doubters are the core devs. Everybody's surprised when I tell them that. | 15:21 |
| gmaxwell | bramc: maybe not-- at least until it happens, because strangely (*!@#*! many people on reddit think that persistant network forks are no big deal! | 15:22 |
| mrkent | gmaxwell: well, not everyone knows your reddit username so there isn't as much weight behind that guy | 15:22 |
| bramc | gmaxwell, That's a lesson not worth learning the hard way! | 15:22 |
| bramc | Most redditors probably know the name 'Gavin' and that's about it on the dev side. | 15:23 |
| brand0 | What *do* you guys think is the right process forward here? (I've heard tons about what's wrong) | 15:23 |
| gmaxwell | Well there are very important reasons that you do not want to be well known. | 15:23 |
| Adlai | they know other names from targeted ad-hominem shilling | 15:23 |
| bramc | brand0, The right process is to do nothing to the block chain, work on making everything support real transaction fees | 15:24 |
| gmaxwell | brand0: there are several proposals that fix some of the ugly incentive problems and would likely make larger blocks safer. Those need to mature and be explored. | 15:24 |
| bramc | gmaxwell, Thanks for the warning, I'll take every step necessary to avoid ever being well known. | 15:24 |

| bramc | mrkent, Do you mean outcomes for block size increases or outcomes for scaling the block chain as a whole? | 15:27 |
| mrkent | bramc: or not do anything, or something else.. | 15:28 |
| bramc | Unfortunately doing actual work can get you labelled TEH DEVIL. For example Peter Todd's work on malleability. I have some issues with Peter Todd. His work on malleability is most definitely NOT one of them. | 15:28 |
| gmaxwell | brand0: We know with almost absoute certanty that we can scale-out bitcoin into complete centeralization at some level (no consensus exactly where and how) it's no longer viable as a decenteralized system (no consensus on how you define decenteralized). But at the same time, no certanty that any particular blocksize will accomimdate any particular new application space. | 15:28 |
| mrkent | Any sort of hardforking change | 15:28 |
| -!- waxwing [~waxwing@62.205.214.125] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] | 15:28 | |
| bramc | mrkent, Most likely outcome is probably that a hard fork never happens. Next most likely is that a hard fork happens but fails. Next after that is that a hardfork happens, only half fails, the shit hits the fan, and wallets have to support the new reality of two incompatible block chains. | 15:29 |
| gmaxwell | brand0: there are varriosu proposals (e.g. lightning being the newest and most advanced) to achieve actual scalablity for Bitcoin which need to mature, and I think these are the only way we can address actual massive scale use cases. | 15:29 |
| kanzure | as much as i don't want a centralized system design, it would be prudent to have backup plans for orderly wind-downs into centralized systems so that there isn't too much murder | 15:29 |
| bramc | kanzure, The solution to the shit hitting the fan from one fork is not another fork | 15:30 |
| mrkent | Accounting for the "politics" of it all. e.g. If Gavin pushed new code that hardforks, is it likely that more than 50% will just go with it? | 15:30 |
| kanzure | bramc: nah, i was speaking more long-term | 15:30 |
| gmaxwell | if the users of the system choose to keep craking the limit up to avoid any fees, rather than developing and adoptiong things that actually scale, then the system will likely fail (though maybe in a way that doesn't cause massive monetary losses for its users, e.g. it could just become a new popular centerally administered fiat) | 15:30 |
| kanzure | mrkent: depends on what 50% you are asking about | 15:30 |
| -!- waxwing [~waxwing@62.205.214.125] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 15:31 | |
| kanzure | gmaxwell: if that is what happens (an actual centralization many years down the line, conversion into visa-like system, etc...), there will be much in-fighting between different groups trying to grab control... | 15:32 |
| bramc | mrkent, Depends on how it's rolled out. If there's a vote amongst miners as to whether to accept it it will likely fail. If there's a vote amongst miners and it passes the vote it will likely half-fail. If there's no vote amongst miners and it's just unilateral then it will either fail of half-fail, hard to guess which | 15:32 |
| mrkent | kanzure: I think just 50% of the people? | 15:32 |
| gmaxwell | kanzure: who says that you're not seeing that already? | 15:32 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: well of what people? probably 99% of bitcoin users don't run node softare at all. | 15:32 |
| mrkent | I don' | 15:32 |
| kanzure | mrkent: the bitcoin system has no way of counting people, so no | 15:32 |
| bramc | Whether what's being proposed is an adoption vote like the soft forks of the past I'm unclear on. | 15:33 |
| kanzure | gmaxwell: because i also don't see any proposals for safe wind-down into a centralized system. it should not be bloody, if that's what $whoever really wants. | 15:33 |
| gmaxwell | kanzure: you can't preprepare that without both a fight over who would be the reciever of it, AND without creating an incentive to cause that outcome. | 15:34 |
| mrkent | kanzure: Miners tend to be pretty centralized (via pools). If miners say no, but everyone else who actually transacts say yes, then miners are not going to mine their fork that no one will recognize | 15:34 |
| Adlai | bramc: iiuc, mrkent is asking "what happens to the winners and losers after an intentional hardfork occurs" | 15:34 |
| kanzure | gmaxwell: hm not sure i understand your incentive comment there | 15:34 |
| kanzure | gmaxwell: i guess it would flag the people that would be willing to support that proposal? | 15:34 |
| kanzure | but wouldn't that be useful for those who want to keep things decentralized? | 15:34 |

| kanzure | gmaxwell: i was wondering if you would be kind enough to brain dump about all the missing things from my list here http://www.mail-archive.com/bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net/msg08183.html | 15:36 |
| gmaxwell | kanzure: well it already has, exact number right now is hard to estimate, alarge supermajority of hashpower is in the hands of a half dozen or so. E.g. someone could rationally argue that in that sense, at the moment, bitcoin is less decenteralized that the ludriciriously centeralized federated consensus in alpha. :( | 15:36 |
| kanzure | i have read your fedpeg python source code and i am not amused :-) | 15:37 |
| bramc | I'm going to be giving a talk at the bitcoin-dev meeting on the 22nd. The title will be 'Removing the waste from cryptocurrencies: Challenges and more challenges' | 15:38 |

| kanzure | gmaxwell: well what i would be most worried about is others using that code for non-testnet things. i was thinking about making a client/library instead.. | 15:39 |
| bramc | gmaxwell, My mining ideas on paper look great for maintaining decentralization. They're still very much in the crazy out their ideas category though. | 15:39 |
| gmaxwell | kanzure: well kinda self correcting there! (doh), I do think we really adequately warned people not to do that. | 15:40 |
| kanzure | bramc: i'm not sure even your proof of sequential work could allow the system to withstand users switching out rules and degrading behavior | 15:41 |
| bramc | kanzure, Not sure what you mean by that | 15:42 |

| gmaxwell | bramc: no system can be immune to the users rewriting the rules, but it surely can resist them... and bitcoin does, thus this drama. :) | 15:47 |

| -!- gwollon [~gwillen@li450-236.members.linode.com] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 16:16 | |
| gmaxwell | The next is that larger blocks favor bigger more centeralized miners in several ways, e.g. if your bandwidth and validation costs are macrosopic, then the most centeralized pool is the most profitable, and since mining is an equalibrium that seeks zero average profits, you'll be mining at a loss unless you use that pool. | 16:17 |
| gmaxwell | The next is, assuming multiple miners still exist, if there is no limit on size it will always be locally in your best interest to take all the transactions you can, even very low fee ones. -- let someone else turn up their nose and delay very low fee transactions to create anti-spam and market pressures to increase fees.

| gmaxwell | mrkent: mining is a _lottery_ not a race. You win proportionally to your hashrate (ignoring issues around propagation). The process is linear, and there isn't a large scaling advantage (and there are a few scaling disadvantages, e.g. heat dissapation is harder at larger scales) | 16:36 |
| mrkent | So, when we get to 21m BTC, these guys are only going to make money off fees | 16:36 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: long before then, effectively. | 16:37 |
| gmaxwell | (because of the geometric behavior) | 16:37 |
| mrkent | So if they accept very low fees like you claim, why would anyone pay more that that low amount? | 16:38 |
| gmaxwell | right. They wouldn't. | 16:38 |
| bramc | mrkent, It's a regular supply and demand thing. Once the demand has exceeded the supply, which in this case is set by the block size limit, then the price will go up | 16:38 |
| gmaxwell | It's like asking how carbon cap and trade would work... without the cap. :) | 16:39 |
| bramc | gmaxwell, exactly | 16:40 |
| mrkent | effectively, mining becomes, how soon do I get next block (thus how much fee I charge * # of txns) | 16:40 |
| bramc | mrkent, You don't get to decide on the fee, each transaction says what its fee is, so you take the transactions with the highest fee/byte and include them | 16:40 |
| mrkent | so in order to secure the network to the degree that people want, I need to charge at least fee of x satoshi... | 16:41 |
| kanzure | "charge" | 16:41 |
| brand0 | Can anyone point me to code/documentation/whitepaper on which transaction scheme they think would scale best? | 16:41 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: huh? you take all that you get and you put the result in your pocket. nothing makes you spend it on security. | 16:43 |
| bramc | brand0, The lightning network paper isn't quite ready yet, there will be a presentation at Stanford on monday https://crypto.stanford.edu/seclab/sem-14-15/poon.html | 16:43 |
| mrkent | gmaxwell: I'm not sure I understand what you mean there | 16:44 |
| bramc | kanzure, If the big proposal right now was for 20mb extension blocks there would be a lot of controversy but not half the amount of bitter vitriol going on right now. | 16:44 |
| brand0 | bramc, thank you | 16:45 |
| gmaxwell | mrkent: there is no "charge" mechenism. transactions have a fee they pay. You take it or you leave it. | 16:45 |
| gmaxwell | you can choose to produce a smaller block, leaving fees on the floor that you could have otherwise earned, and other miners will earn them if they break rank with you and accept the transactions you turned up. | 16:46 |
| mrkent | Yes but miners don't have to accept them | 16:46 |
| bramc | brand0, The super-quick summary of lightning network is that it uses net settlement where there's no need for anything to hit the chain until the net goes past the deposit amount, and then that's just a single transaction. It requires a relative timelock opcode to work properly, for reasons which are very technical and interesting. | 16:46 |
| gmaxwell | right, now saw you accept at some cutoff. you'll make less. Someone else accepts them, they'll make more than you, and yet they'll still benefit from your design to reject since it delays the transactions somewhat. | 16:47 |
| gmaxwell | but you never increase your income by rejecting, not unless almost everyone else does too. | 16:47 |
| gmaxwell | and everyone can make more right now by not rejecting. | 16:47 |
| gmaxwell | Then once you've made whatever you've made, you can just put that in your pocket. It doesn't go to pay for security, only your competition with other miners can result in that. | 16:48 |
| akrmn | There's many different forms of extension blocks. No one has still provided any fundamental flaw in my "subchains" idea, which is a form of extension blocks. | 16:48 |
| jgarzik | gmaxwell, never say never ;p | 16:49 |
| jgarzik | gmaxwell, if e.g. your orphan rate decreases due to block minimalism. there are other incentives besides fees... IMO that's a big part of PoW is that some real world externalities salt the system versus PoS. | 16:49 |
| gmaxwell | well I'm disregarding orphan rates there, because they are prefectly solvable via another simpler means: pool centeralization. It basically never makes sense to lower your blocksize to lower orphan rates, see pieters simulation results. If orphaning is an issue due to bandwidth you centeralize pooling. | 16:51 |
| gmaxwell | Which is what people were doing some months ago which is much of how we ended up with half the hashrate under a single parties control. Fortunately the block relay protocol reduced the incentive to do that, at least for a bit. | 16:51 |
| mrkent | There may be some other strategies a miner can employ to get higher pay | 16:51 |
| mrkent | Like perhaps some block withholding tactic | 16:52 |
| mrkent | Or like partnership with payment providers or something | 16:53 |
| gmaxwell | sure, miners with more than about a third of the hashpower can get a large advantage by withholding. | 16:53 |
| mrkent | like visa POS wants BTC confirmed immediately, so they pay the 1 asshole miner who charge 2x everyone else | 16:53 |
| jgarzik | still might take 60 wall clock minutes even at highest fees | 16:54 |

| mrkent | Ultimately, it'll boil down to some equilibrium point at which miners collect fee based on how much value they provide to the network | 16:57 |
| mrkent | certainly more transactions = more value they provide right? | 16:57 |

| bramc | mrkent, If there's one person who's willing to pay $1 million for a transaction, and 99 others who are willing to pay $1 each, then if you set the number of transactions at 100 you get $100 but if you set it at one you get $1 million | 17:17 |

| mrkent | And why would that guy pay $1m when everyone else is paying $1? It's a transparent marketplace | 17:19 |
| bramc | mrkent, Because it's an iterated game where everyone doing transactions can see the market price, so they'll all wind up paying about the same amount | 17:23 |
| bramc | Oh you said that already, sorry. If you only let one transaction through then it isn't the case that everybody else is paying $1, what happens is that 'everybody else' is paying $1 million, because there aren't any other everybody elses | 17:23 |
| bramc | Maybe I should have included an additional person willing to pay $1 million to avoid a fencepost error, because an auction is second price instead of first price. | 17:24 |

| phantomcircuit | the economic value of your transaction must equal or exceed the networks total cost to process and store your transaction | 17:31 |
| phantomcircuit | the most direct indication of the value of the transaction is the fees | 17:31 |
| phantomcircuit | if fees are essentially zero (the inevitable result of continuously increasing the blocksize limits to meet demand) then the network almost certainly collapses to a small set of nodes which find economic value in bitcoin existing itself | 17:32 |
| phantomcircuit | ie only exchanges run nodes | 17:33 |
| phantomcircuit | that's pretty clearly not a desired outcome | 17:33 |

| kanzure | just finished typing | 22:18 |
| kanzure | (i had a break) | 22:19 |
| kanzure | i was especially intrigued by the idea of locking down even soft-forks, that's quite the card to play | 22:26 |
| gmaxwell | IMO it's more of a philosphical statement than a pratical one. I agree with its as a philosphy. there is also more to that that I think wasn't in the interview. | 22:29 |
| -!- zooko [~user@c-73-181-114-39.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards | 22:30 | |
| gmaxwell | which is this idea we were calling evil forks at the time, and were intentionally not proposing (though they've since been independantly invented twice so I don't see any point in being quiet about them now) | 22:30 |
| kanzure | i see; yeah i mean crippling our ability to do soft-forks is probably a lot of foot shooting, but is good philosophy. | 22:30 |
| gmaxwell | which is that you can basically build a soft fork which makes a hardfork extension via an extension block but denies all other transactions. | 22:30 |

| gmaxwell | which sort of highlights why at least at the limits softforks are bad too. | 22:31 |
| kanzure | would it be too impossibly insane to require rule changes to also require sha256 variations | 22:31 |
| kanzure | er.. uh.. | 22:31 |
| kanzure | hm nevermind | 22:32 |
| kanzure | the answer is yes | 22:32 |
| gmaxwell | you can't really deny softforks in any case, not without heroic non-realistic crypto and such. or at least we've not though of a pratical way to. | 22:32 |

| Luke-Jr | gmaxwell: I'm still somewhat planning a proposal for that; if for nothing other than merge-mining (doesn't need to touch block sizes - though it can if there's consensus for that) | 22:58 |
| Luke-Jr | need to get a reference implementation done and make sure the wording is right first though | 22:59 |
| Luke-Jr | (including a plan for solving people trying to activate it without consensus) | 22:59 |
