A thought experiment. Has anyone run the numbers on replacing space heaters with--perhaps underclocked--miners?

I just moved up north from Texas, and while I have gas heat included in my rent, I noticed a lot of places use space heaters that run up electric bills. We've also got my first winter while living outside of my home state, and man it's already as cold as it ever got back home.

As someone who knows some of the ins and outs of profitability calculation, but haven't mined or looked too deep into mining, I'm curious about one thing.

Has anyone run the numbers on efficiencies of most residential electric heating units compared to profit generation of miners used as a replacement?

I have made a Lightning FAQ – Feedback appreciated!

Q: What is the Lightning Network?

A: The Lightning Network is currently under development and will become a decentralized network that enables instant off-chain transfer of bitcoin between counterparties without the need of a trusted third party. The system utilizes bidirectional payment channels that consist of multisignature addresses. One on-chain transaction is needed to open a channel and another on-chain transaction will close the channel. Once a channel is open, value can be transferred instantly between counterparties, who are exchanging normal bitcoin transactions, but without broadcasting them to the bitcoin network. New transactions will replace previous transactions and the counterparties will store everything locally as long as the channel stays open.

Q: Is Lightning open source?

A: Yes, Lightning will be open source. Anyone can review the code just like the bitcoin code.

Q: Who owns and controls the Lightning Network?

A: Similar to the bitcoin network, no one will ever own or control the Lightning Network. The code will be open source and free for anyone to download and review. Anyone who wants will be able to run a node.

Q: Who is behind the Lightning Network?

A: Joseph Poon and Thaddeus Dryja wrote The Lightning white paper. Anyone who wants can contribute with the development of code. Blockstream currently has one employee who is dedicated to Lightning development

Q: Does the LN have its own “Lightning coins”?

A: No, that’s not how the LN works. The LN will be using real bitcoin transactions with actual bitcoins in them

Q: Is the LN dependent on consensus to be implemented?

A: No, the LN builds an additional layer on top of the bitcoin network and is therefore not dependent on consensus in the bitcoin network itself.

Q: I have heard that there will be some fees involved in the LN, who will be collecting those fees?

A: Potentially everyone who runs a Lightning-node. Example: Alice wants to send money to Carol, but Alice doesn’t have an open channel with Carol. But Alice has an open channel with Bob, and Bob has an open channel with Carol. Instead of opening a new channel with Carol, Alice can route the payment trough Bob: Alice - Bob - Carol. In this scenario Bob might take a small fee.

Q: Will there be any custodial risk in the Lightning Network? Do I have to trust anyone else to hold my money?

A: No, the system is not based on trust; you remain in full control of your money. If anything goes wrong you simply broadcast your state to the bitcoin blockchain and all your money is returned to you.

Q: Does the Lightning Network have its own blockchain?

A: No, Lightning is dependent on the bitcoin blockchain. On-chain bitcoin transactions are needed to open and to close “channels” between peers (nodes) in the system. Once a channel is open, bitcoin can be sent off-chain in both directions within the channel. The transactions inside a channel are real bitcoin transactions, but they are not broadcasted to the bitcoin network as long as the channel stays open. Instead those involved store the transactions locally. This enables instant transactions and a near unlimited capacity within a channel.

Q: Will there be any form of mining in the Lightning Network?

A: No, security is provided by the bitcoin miners in underlying bitcoin network

Q: Where can I find more information about Lightning?

BitLendingClub/Loanbase shutting down immediately citing "regulatory pressure"


Just got this from their mail list, I don't see anything on their site or twitter account yet.BitLendingClub Closing Soon Due to Regulatory PressureDear Customers,We've worked extremely hard to build a platform and a community which is uniquely positioned to provide the Bitcoin ecosystem with a greatly needed service. However, over the last year or so, the regulatory pressures has been increasing to the point that it is no longer feasible to maintain the operation of the platform. We are regretfully announcing that we will have to begint terminating the services effective immediately. Of course, we will maintain some minimal functionality in order to allow our existing users to repay their loans and withdraw their funds.What Functionality Will Remain?We will restrict the functionality of the website to either repaying a loan, depositing to repay or withdrawing funds. There will be no new registrations, loan requests, verification of new users, investments or anything else. Just repaying of the existing loans or withdrawal.When Will The Service Become Restricted?We expect to begin restricting the functionality sometime next week. We don't have a specific date, but we will send out an e-mail when the change occurs.How Long Will The Platform Remain Operational With Restricted Functionality?The platform will remain operational with the limited functionality for 30 days after all loans are either repaid or written off (i.e. they have defaulted and are written off). After that we will be terminating the services completely. The expected termination date is approximately August 2017. it may be earlier or later, but that's subject to change.How Long Do We Have To Withdraw Our Funds?Users will be able to withdraw their funds up to 30 days after the last loan is repaid or marked as written off. We will completely terminate the platform 30 days after the last loan is repaid or written off. We recommend that you begin withdrawing your funds immediately.Again, we're extremely sad to be delivering this news, but that's the reality of operating a business in the Bitcoin ecosystem. There are regulatory pressures, which make business extremely difficult and we have always done everything possible to be compliant with regulators. Given that we've reached the point where it is no longer feasible to run the platform and be compliant, we have decided to terminate the platform.Best Wishes, The BitLendingClub Team via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2gz0XwX

I'm fucked huh?


Okay so I bought some bitcoin earlier today and got it on my Mycelium wallet, I decided (who knows why) it would be a good idea to transfer some of those funds over to an Electrum wallet to use for payment. So now I'm about to pay and I realized I forgot the password for this wallet. And I can't find the seed. The transaction is still 0 confirmed and will probably take a while to mine. So now I'm pretty much stuck putting in random passwords until it'll let me pay the vendor. Any advice?edit: I'm not gonna be able to guess the password... I wasted a lot of money on this :( via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2fLmOQ9

Purchasing Bitcoins in Norway just got 10 times harder

Recently /u/bearhagen posted about how Bitcoins Norway enabled deposits to their platform using a popular mobile payment apps in Norway, Vipps. Cointelegraph later that day posted a poorly researched (as usual) article about the topic titled "Norway’s Largest Bank Favours Bitcoin, Simplifies its Purchase and Usage". The claims made by Cointelegraph are, as usual, complete bollocks and the piece seems more like a paid advertisement for Bitcoins Norway. It wouldn't surprise me if this was the case, given Bitcoins Norway's abysmal track record.

As pointed out by several users in the original thread and by me in the thread of the CoinTelegraph article, using Vipps for selling and buying of Bitcoin is prohibited by their TOS. The relevant section is "6.4 Rettmessig bruk" ("6.4 Allowed usage"). Search for "Bitcoin" on the page and you will see this:

Dersom du bruker Vipps på en måte som medfører risiko for hvitvasking av penger, for eksempel til kjøp og salg av Bitcoins, eller på en måte som oppleves som støtende eller sjikanerende for andre Vipps-brukere, for eksempel ved å sende upassende meldinger til andre brukere, kan DNB sperre din Vipps-profil.

Translated:

If you use Vipps in a way that involves a risk of money laundering, such as the purchase and sale of Bitcoins, or in a way that is perceived as offensive or harassing other Vipps-users, such as by sending inappropriate messages to other users, DNB may close your account.

As expected, Bitcoins Norway's accounts with Vipps have now been shut down as they are blatantly breaching its TOS. When searching for "Bitcoin" or "Bitcoins" in Vipps, there are no longer any results (Bitcoins Norway's accounts were visible in searches yesterday). Searching for the phone number they are proudly displaying on their website, 80461, also yields no results.

/r/Bitcoin: you got tricked, both by Bitcoins Norway and by CoinTelegraph.

Are bigger blocks on the road map?


I've heard most of the arguments that have been causing issue as of late and I'm hopeful that segwit will be implemented/accepted soon to alleviate some of the pressure on the block chain but I'm curious to know if core have plans to increase the block size in the near future or is 1mb and lightning network the ultimate goal? via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2gst4Ob

What should I do with 10 dollars a week on Bitcoin?


I am getting 10 dollars a week with Bitcoin, and I am thinking about using part of it for Steam games, but are there any smart things I could do with that income? I am underage in Brazil and would like to invest, but I don't think I am allowed to do that. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2fMlsYh

Fee's have normalized again at 11 cents. If this was "organic growth" then we would have seen a steady upclimb that sustained. Since it did not sustain, I think its reasonable to assume what we saw was another spam attack.
