yeah well think it through.
its a matter of scale.
if you just have to wait a few more blocks, fine.
if you have to wait a week, its a drag.
if you have to wait a week and pay an extra 30%...
if you have to make a out of band deal with a miner....
at what point people want to call it "censorship" I don't really care,
cause its all *technically censorship.
and the point is that
its possible at all.
It’s just a weak argument, none of the transactions were stopped. You’re talking about possibilities and what if I’m talking about reality and what is. 16 years and trillions of dollars of transactions and none have been stopped and you’re calling it a failure because a few were slowed down. It’s hard to even fathom this level of hardheadedness.
I need my shit now bro. My attention span is 2.3 seconds. Swipe. Swipe. Swipe.
Wake me up when someone successfully stops a transaction for being mined.
this what is called "preparing for adversarial enviroments"
and it's why we have Bitcoin at all.
i don't really think its a failure (yet)
but it WILL fail if y'all dont take this seriously.
By your comment and the article linked it came across as you calling it a failure. Yes prepare for the worst but expect the best.
People who insist on absolute censorship resistance can rightfully say that it has failed.
I'm just not that sort of a person.
but it is censorship and it should make people wonder about bitcoin's censorship resistant properties.
