Re: 报道称八家矿池支持软分叉 莱特币扩容之争或走向结束

Re: 报道称八家矿池支持软分叉 莱特币扩容之争或走向结束

莱特币的扩容之争可能要结束了。
 
一群矿工和交易所对新提议进行投票表决。在度过了关于“莱特币网络是否应该通过技术升级”的辩论愈演愈烈的几周之后,对于这款市值第四大的数字加密货币,人们已经达成了共识。
 
同时还有来自数字加密货币的创造者兼Coinbase的员工李启威,发出声明支持“莱特币实施隔离见证软分叉”,将这个最初是为比特币做出的扩容升级方案施予了莱特币,而且很有可能会比比特币区块链更早激活。
 
据会议主办方和莱特币社区成员“PZ”所说,该会议在微信上举行,时长超过8个小时,从昨日的北京标准时间中午12点到昨日晚上8点。
 
比特币开发团队创造的隔离见证升级,一直以其旨在提高交易能力,却无需改变硬代价区块大小规则的创意性方式而为人称赞。就像比特币一样,莱特币的区块也有一个每块总容量为1MB的上限,所以它也会面临着类似的可扩展性限制的长期问题。
 
总体来说,该声明赞同这种合作的方式,并且坚决反对使用所谓的用户激活软分叉,或者说UASF,作为可行的扩容替代方案。
 
声明中这样写道:
 
“我们认为,协议升级应该根据社区的共识来进行,而不是开发者或者矿工们的单方面行动。我们主张,莱特币协议升级的决定应该基于用户的需求,通过圆桌会议的投票过程,由矿工投票激活。”

 
支持该方案的矿工们包括:比特币大陆(蚁池)、BW.com、BATPool、鱼池和LTC1BTC——一个代表了68%算力的组合,如果把LTC.top(据会议组织者说,它和LTC1BTC组合是一个老板控制)算进去的话,这个数字会上升到大约84%。
 
然而,值得注意的是比特大陆——在未来也将支持潜在的区块大小增加,超过一定阈值之后容量使用率上升。
 
比特大陆的创始人吴忌寒接受CoinDesk的采访向我们证实了他确实亲自出席了会议,尽管他长期反对在比特币网络上进行同类升级。他说,正是隔离见证加上支持区块链扩容解决方案的承诺,才最终让比特大陆支持该方案。
 
“李启威承诺说当区块达到半满时,会提供增加区块大小的解决方案”,他说。
 
放眼未来,还尚不清楚莱特币距离容量升级还有多久。矿工们现在就需要通过下载支持隔离见证的最新软件,向这次升级递出支持的信号。
 
根据一月份的软件一起发布的原来的提议,升级需要超过75%的支持信号,而要达到这个数字需要花两周的时间。
 
“当莱特币区块的容量超过59%,我们就将准备一个解决方案,通过一个硬分叉或者软分叉来增加1MB区块的大小。”该声明上写道。
 
据主办方介绍,他们正在努力使各方及集团内的利益相关者加入进来,包括交易所服务Bitstamp、BTC-e、Bitfinex以及Poloniex。
 

(Why?)

Bitcoin Solves Legal Marijuana’s Federal Banking Problem

SinglePoint and First bitcoin Capital partner up to solve payment problems in the legal marijuana industry by releasing a point of sale app.


High Priority Issue for the Legal Marijuana Industry

One of the lesser documented reasons for the rise of bitcoin’s price is the role it plays in the legal marijuana industry in the United States. The problem is that US local and federal law are at loggerheads over the legality of the money raised from the selling of legal cannabis products.

Cannabis & Bitcoin

While the tender may be legal in 29 states, it still remains illegal under federal law. This creates issues for point of sale and also where to deposit profits.  This has provided a role for bitcoin as an intermediary and as a potential store of value, with the legal cannabis industry having sales of $8 billion in 2016 you have to wonder where this money is being stored and where it is being invested.

SinglePoint + First bitcoin Capital = Fast Solution?

There is now tremendous momentum and demand for bitcoin acceptance as an alternative form of payment. In a news release this past Tuesday, SinglePoint CEO Greg Lambrecht stated:

This Joint Venture with First bitcoin Capital is perfect timing. bitcoin payments are catching on and cannabis dispensaries need a solution fast.

SinglePoint brings their expertise in distribution while First Bitcoin Capital provides their knowledge and experience with bitcoin and blockchain technology. The partners plan to distribute their offering as a downloadable application for point-of-sale machines. Hopefully, the companies will provide a relatively swift solution to Bitcoins transaction speeds.

The offering would compete with other pot payment innovations such as cashless ATMs and dedicated prepaid cards.

Bitcoinist has followed the use of bitcoin in the cannabis industry since it became legal to buy cannabis in Washington, how bitcoin is just ‘too slow‘ for transactions and an examination of how bitcoin mixes with cannabis industry.

Will bitcoin provide a better solution for the purchase of Cannabis products in the US? Let us know in the comments below.
