Epic Block Size Fork of 2017! ETA 13 Days. Vlog #1
This new vlogging series is dedicated to covering the crazy historic block size debate that is reaching a crescendo. The fork will occur on August 1st. I will cover my personal involvement and the involvement of my business every day through the fork.
Topics covered: * Bitcoin block size debate * Real life game theory experiment * The different interests: users, businesses, miners, core devs * Bitcoin fees are high * Yours had to switch to litecoin. Fees are prohibitively high on bitcoin. * Even if bitcoin is settlement layer, cannot reach most people. Bitcoin cannot grow any more. Takes 30 years to send 7 billion people 1 tx. * segwit vs. hard fork.

Aphorism: Proof-of-Work is a signal of investment.
Explanation: Why do you buy a car from a fancy car dealership rather than some shady guy on a street corner if the fancy car dealership charges 10% more? The fact that the car dealership has a fancy building with fancy marketing indicates they are investing in their business which means they are unlikely to leave and unlikely to scam you. The shady guy on the street corner has not made that investment. Why save 10% if you risk being scammed and losing all of your money? Proof-of-Work is an algorithm for creating the same signal as a fancy car dealership. Proof-of-Work signals that you can trust miners because they have invested in the system.

Aphorism: Bitcoin is peer-to-peer electronic cash.
Explanation: “Peer” means a person. If Alice wants to pay Bob, Alice creates a Bitcoin transaction and hands the transaction to Bob. Bitcoin is electronic cash. It is analogous to physical cash. Just like Alice would hand a dollar bill to Bob, or any other fiat currency note, Alice can hand a Bitcoin to Bob. Because Bitcoin is electronic, it works on computers, making it possible to send cash over the internet. You can’t do that with physical cash. Bitcoin is an important innovation that makes peer-to-peer electronic cash possible for the first time.

Aphorism: Proof of Work de-anonymizes Bitcoin miners.
Explanation: Proof of Work is where the miners produce a hash of a block with a value above the current difficulty target. They do this by running a hash function on the block header over and over with a different nonce. Because miners need to get their blocks to other miners quickly, they must send the block straight to the other miners. This makes it possible to triangulate the physical location of the miner. Therefore, every miner will inevitably reveal their identity. It is not possible to mine Bitcoin anonymously.
