*taps* is this thing on. Was my shadow ban lifted? Check out @ChewbiesNFT Like this post if I am not shadow banned anymore.

@LiteAsCluck @indigo_nakamoto @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert I didnt suggest SHA256 can merge mine scrypt. The algo used is irrelevant to computational power. How much computational power is used is how a PoW blockchain is secured. Hash rates can be compared in how secure a chain is. Higher hash rate is more secure regardless of PoW algo.

My girl is so weird. She gets home from a concert at her kids college, and immediately starts watching it again on her phone recording of it.

@indigo_nakamoto @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert Also, it'd take massive hardware to perform a 51% but almost $0 to take part in securing. One doesn't have to earn to secure and thats true of both algorithms. It costs to have a realistic chance of earning... not securing. Even a laptop can take part in securing the network.

@tac_token @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert You are ignoring the total cost to attack which includes the cost of the hardware and that hardware would be worth nothing after. Litecoin is secure.

@indigo_nakamoto @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert Why would you think that hardware would be worth nothing afterwords? Honestly bitcoin is at a state where a 51% attack isn't even a threat to bitcoin if it happens. So the hardware wouldn't suddenly be worthless as it wouldn't mean the end of the network.

@indigo_nakamoto @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert Bitcoin has a higher hashrate and as such has more computational power required to perform a 51% attack. The algorithm does not change this fact.

@indigo_nakamoto @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert You seem to lack understanding on why hashrate matters to securing the network. Its completely irrelevant what the algorithm they use is. The reason for that is because the higher the hash rate the more computational power required to carry out a 51% attack.

@lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert Dollars dont secure networks hashes do and they can be compared - hence they are compared by countless websites Yes they are 2 different algos - that changes nothing You are saying thousands of sites that compare hashrates of different protocols are wrong. Thats laughable to me

@tac_token @mithcoons @BarrySilbert They’re two different algorithms, you can’t compare them against one another. Also, if you compare Bitcoin’s market cap vs Litecoin’s and compare each networks node count to the money invested in each network, Litecoin has more nodes per $

@LiteAsCluck @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert while everyone was running around boasting how much better their chains are - segwit, lightning network and taproot upgrades happened.

@LiteAsCluck @lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert You mean like using bitcoin mimblewimble or bitcoin liquid network? Or RGB LN contracts? This isn't 2016 anymore and bitcoin is not "behind" other chains no matter what people may think.

@tac_token @mithcoons @BarrySilbert Are you directly comparing Bitcoin hashrate to Litecoin? If so, I’d like to see the math you used

@lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert If you really want that luxury - lightning network departs 10000s of trains every second.

@lite_hause @mithcoons @BarrySilbert So you can take the train that's 4 times faster and 100 times less secure thus risking your life (finances) or you can be logical and use the one that isn't a risk on your life (finances).

@FinTechProffitt forex is taxed at 60% long term capital gains and 40% short term capital gains. And this is where the confusion comes in.

I have yet to find a CPA that knows the answer. Tag your favorite crypto CPA / accountant. How is it taxed (USA) if I buy BTC with USD. Sell BTC for GBP on a crypto exchange, trade GBP to USD on forex. Do I pay double capital gains? How is that taxed? #BTC #bitcoin #taxes #cpa

@FinTechProffitt @NFT_Inator @DiamondHH little sample

Anyone know of app or service thats free, generates imgs from png layers (I don't use PS so no psd), generates metadata, uploads to ipfs, and launches minting contract that I can set price? nft-inator creates broken imgs and duplicates #NFTCommuntiy #nftartists #NFTcollections

@POTUS @JoeBiden wasn't kidding. Democracy was in danger of being overthrown Every state senate that had slow counts with GOP dominating flipped democrat EVERY SINGLE ONE Next up they go after GOP as terrorists History repeats. Very similar to how NAZIs stole German democracy

@elonmusk doesn't want your money unless you are an #iphone fan boi. Nothing like shooting ones self in the foot. #TwitterBlue #Twitter #elon_musk #ElonIsAnIdiot
