This is more than enough to corroborate our statistics. Claims of "trxs activity" are completely meaningless when you can't demonstrate that a single client of yours actually relies on unconfirmed transaction acceptance. > As far as validating real RBF adoption I have offered a clear option here > https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28132#issuecomment-1661960440 > something like this or similar would offer a clear assessment of adoption. > Since you are not able to provide documents or public emails of hashing > pools confirming there adoption of Full RBF.

If your business was in fact real, it'd be essential to keep track of double spend success rates. > Based on a test like this or something similar it would be reliable to get to an assessment of the adoption of full RBF. As you should know, my OpenTimestamps calendars, https://alice.btc.calendar.opentimestamps.org/ and https://bob.btc.calendar.opentimestamps.org/, have been creating full-rbf double spends multiple times a day since last year. Those calendars have created literally thousands of full-rbf replacements, providing ample test data. If your business was real - if you actually have a "real time risk engine" that monitors mempools - you'd already know this. You'd also know about the successful full-rbf replacements that Alice got mined today: 291e1abf146209839f8910cf9ede6979bb12e6efa6d73f52ca7ae0476eafa6a5 - AntPool e7ea70c2e366ef035ed0428c704c55e5331211200c6e0298eb85a574812aa010 - Binance Pool aa9e034283cc50a3cb042284833607bc49dea275854004a3757acf776e679a6b - Poolin ae74600b66ccf9d8ee8d62e5881581b5baff11117e47ea51c3e4d1fee1612504 - AntPool Those four transactions are each part of a chain of replacements, and every chain started with a transaction paying well above the minimum relay fee in present mempool conditions. Tell me, how do you think those full-rbf replacements get mined? On Wed, Aug 02, 2023 at 06:29:54PM +0300, Daniel Lipshitz wrote: > For clarity purposes. > > 1.

So if you are "monitoring main net transactions and network activity", why are you not already aware of the many full-rbf replacements getting mined every day? > 2.

This can validate a significant amount of our traffic. This reminds me of how Craig Wright appears to have picked a bunch of bitcoin addresses off of a "rich list" and fraudulently claimed those addresses to be his. Anyone can create a list of addresses from blockchain data. That is not proof that any actual merchant relies on unconfirmed transactions. To prove that you need to provide the names of those merchant(s), so others can actually verify that they provides things of value in exchange for an unconfirmed transaction. > 4.

This is in addition to me posting an email from Max back in Dec > 2022 to this list confirming all of this information. Again, Coinspaid is a merchant processor. Unless you or they actually provide details on real merchants making use of your claimed service, you have not proven anything of value. > 5.

FYI I emailed pro@changelly.com two days ago, asking for confirmation that they use GAP600, and information on how exactly they rely on unconfirmed transactions. So far I have not gotten a reply. # References 1) https://www.gap600.com/ -- https://petertodd.org 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org
