I'm going to attempt it, maybe I'm wrong but I'll try. I also haven't slept in 2 days so enjoy the English.

Alright, here's our regular contract, every time you send me a bitcoin at my address I'm going to do what you asked me to do, let's say take a number from a website and increase it, then maybe some other task too, depending on conditions and the input. I'll keep some of the bitcoin for myself because I had to do work, consider it fuel, the rest either goes elsewhere if that's what was in the contract, or back to you.

Imagine that but instead of a human it's autonomous, the network will do the tasks listed in the contract. You send eth to a contract with some data and the contract executes like a program, the capabilities are broad so you have to be vauge, in the same way a computer program could "do anything" so can this and since it's hosted on the ethereum network it doesn't stop working unless the whole network goes down, it's fueled by the users too so you don't have to worry about maintaining/fueling it yourself.

Wow that explanation was terrible but I already wrote it.

No, not if your goal is just to make money speculating on ETH. Just like you didn't need to know how to make websites to profit from the dot com bubble, you don't have to code worth shit to make a fuckload from the ethereum explosion that's going to happen.

I'm a computer science and math student though, and I'm really interested in the applications, however. I've already started learning but since it's the middle of the semester I'll probably devote this summer to some more full-time study of decentralized applications

How much ethereum did you buy?

>>1821074
Wow. For what price did you buy them?

>>1821022
currently ethereum is somewhat like bitcoin where people do all the calculations on their own computers and receive ether for doing so, it's called proof of work

in 1-2 years ethereum is going to switch from proof of work, to proof of stake with the casper update, essentially the calculations will be done themselves and the only people receiving new ether will have had to stake their existing ether on the correct outcomes of the calculations

>>1821048
it's theoretically possible, but much less scalable and there isn't any proof that chinese miners want to do more work for no extra money

but an automated, trusted arbiter has a lot of potential between two companies

>>1821155
Nice thanks for the answer. So when it gets automated the value might rise a lot.

>>1821155
>in 1-2 years ethereum is going to switch from proof of work, to proof of stake with the casper update, essentially the calculations will be done themselves and the only people receiving new ether will have had to stake their existing ether on the correct outcomes of the calculations

Why is this significant?

>>1821160
yes, it's far from certain they'll develop it properly, still a large risk discount

you could reliably see a return on ethereum by staking yours, which would make it a different asset than a cryptocurrency then

if you could only acquire more through buying, people would have to buy, and short minded miners wouldn't be decreasing the price

some other fancy things then to make it more functional is increased block times so it can work faster, and a way to split the blockchain a bit to lessen redundancies

All crypto is currently unable to securely scale of the number of transactions they can make to anything close to what a company like Visa is able to handle. The Ethereums Casper proof of stake update will begin to make super quick massive transactions possible. That is why it is a big deal if they can make it work.

What is the transaction speed now and what is it expected/hoped to be?

>>1820710
>>1820755
which is better>

>>1821401
transaction speed can vary, because if it's about amounts on a private chain it isn't universal

current block time is 15 seconds
they hope to bring it down to 3-4

thing is they want to implement sharding which would increase the size of each block, so the effective amount of calculations per second could go up more than 5

many merchants should be ok with slightly longer confirmation times than existing CCs, if the transaction cost is 0.5% instead of the current 3%

there's already a ethereum based debit card

>>1821426
I have read <1 hour on Eth but I see the potential for market disruption in gambling, which is a huge industry to fuck around with

Given gambling has rich lobbyists I can see that causing some legislative roadblocks once it becomes a big player

I suppose some tiny countries will monopolise Eth over gambling lobbyists and take a cut of all bets, but then our normal richfag countries will just ban us from using that service

Think of the American online poker tale

Thoughts?

>>1821432
Etheroll ICO ended, sad tears for you cucks

>>1821432
>Given gambling has rich lobbyists I can see that causing some legislative roadblocks once it becomes a big player

Can you say what roadblocks specifically? The real value ethereum brings to gambling is seeing that the code is fair.

Already plenty of bitcoin casino sites that aren't range banned properly from America.

Gambling isn't what I'm most worried about. Look up swarm, and the illegal content it could host.

But if you want to say that gambling lobbyists will hold it back, you're being simple minded. Look up the support from banks and microsoft on tuesday when enterprise ethereum is presented. Gambling is nothing compared to them.

>>1821456
The roadblocks would be casinos, online and offline, lobbying their governments to have eth gambling made uncompetitive, whether through some taxation, banning, criminalizing, requiring they operate only within casinos -- whatever it may be.

The gambling lobby is huge worldwide and won't let a new player emerge and take market share.

I know some altcoin gambling exists, but when it becomes a market player, which would mean the coins are probably much more valuable as they're being used more often by more people... that's the point where lobbysts/lawmakers regulate it and cause problems for the currencies

I welcome this distributed future. I hope Ethereum coupled with IPFS will improve our technological situation. It's reminiscent of the ideals of Plan9 bur with costs involved instead of implicit sharing of resources. "I want the world to be my computer" has become "I'll pay for access to the world computer" which seems much much nicer than our current system of the provider paying for costs of the users and being a single point of failure. These distributed applications living on their own independent from their creator, existing in the network as a whole instead of simply utilizing said network. It's exciting to see.

Is poloniex the only platform that won't charge u up the ass to buy eth? I don't want to have to buy bitcoin then transfer it to poloniex so I can buy ETH,mainly because if you want to cash out you're compromised by bitcoin, but coinbase charges you a percentage which is ridiculous.

Now that we established that buttcoin can not be reasonably used for smart contracts, let's address your next point. Both prevalent Ethereum implementations have thousands of test cases for the EVM. The VM modifies the blockchain state only and has no side effects. Being able to escape this VM is therefore very improbable. Contracts are not, and in fact, due to the gas limit they cannot currently be, as complex as you purport. Want a contract that is incapable of running loops and/or stateless? Yes, you can have that too because the EVM is

TURINGCOMPLETE

ETH is a coiled spring. Getting in under $20 will be the stuff of dreams in 6 months. I passed on BTC at these prices. Never again. ETH is set for the next crypto ascendency. When it happens, the alt coin market will expand exponentially with hundreds vying to be #3. Normies view once is a fluke (BTC), but twice will signal a new trend. Crypto is the .com boom of our time. You don't want to be left on the launchpad breathing fumes when ETH blasts off.

Exactly. The go-ethereum base VM has about 4k LOC, the JVM spec alone has 600 pages. Also, unlike Bitcoin Script, the EVM is formally specified. Oh, and there is ongoing research in Solidity language security and the development of new languages with provable behavior. Beat that, Shitcoin.

Where were you when ETH hit $15.20?

>>1822885
Do you guy think it will only go up and up from now or will it go down under 15 again?

I think there is some hype surrounding the upcoming conference. If it goes well, it will explode further. If it's just like, "Blah, blah, set back, soon again we promise." Then it might.

Monero is the only truly fungible cryptocurrency available and now people are getting caught on DNM through Bitcoin. Monero is the answer!!! http://www.praisemonero.org/

>>1823431
Monero is a retarded Bitcoin clone. Ethereum is next gen Bitcoin. If Bitcoin is VHS, Ethereum is DVD. And Monero is like betamax or laserdisc or some other offshoot no one cares about.

Pretty sure you can buy ether through this site now. Just connect your credit card or bank account.

If not buy BTC there and convert it to Ether using shapeshift.io (easiest method) or poloniex.com.

>>1823730
That's enough for 3 mil when it reaches $1,000 you dog you.

>>1821118
I personally have about 270 and I bought in around $2.50 to $3.00

Say i buy for 50k tommorow, will there be enough market demand to sell when it peaks, or will i be stuck with this dipping?

Do I need to buy ASAP or is this shit gonna explode after this conference tomorrow?

>>1823781
I really fucking wish I got tickets into this conference. I was on the waitlist for awhile, I live in manhattan, and I need that edge :) I feel like I can get the sentiment live, open a huge margin position, and make bank before the livestream allows the market to subsequently react

>>1823781
When is the conference E.T?

>>1823808
I haven't found a time but I'd think it'd take place before the NYSE opens at 930 am

>>1823811
Perfect, i was planning to buy a stock that release earnings on wedensday with possible ex-dividend date info. Now i'm tempted to buy this Ether instead.

>>1823811

I passed up on btc at $200 and kick myself over that all the time. I've never really done anything with cryptocurrencies before but I don't want to miss this. It's worth shorting if it begins to fall apart

>>1823821
I believe some big banks and tech companies are meeting today 2/28.

>>1823823
I'm just afraid that i'm not able to sell at the peak, as the demand will drop during the dip as everyone is selling and not buying. If also find the selling platforms being a little "complicated"

Just bought another 50 to make 100ETH.

Time to sit back and watch the flip.

Should I sell when this stupid conference is a flop?

God how long does this stupid blockchain take to download.

>>1823991
Ethereum? Depends on you PC and internet connection. Expect 2-3 hours. The Buttcoin blockchain takes 5 days now and still 44 weeks left.

>>1824003
Yes Ethereum. PC specs are top notch, must be internet connection? Time to restart the modem. Fuckin Australia.

>>1824005
I found it went faster when I started from scratch and used geth --fast. Also --cache=2048 but I'm not sure how much of an effect that had. Overall cut it down from probably days to a couple hours.

I got indoctrinated yesterday and bought 300€ worth of ETH (yuropoor) but then I couldnt take it anymore. Sold today for 20€ profit and left 2 pieces in in case it goes wild like BTC.

>>1824115

>>1824118
Honestly the fact that the old ETC still lives and trades speaks heaps about the ethereum project.

I don't like the dip it takes. Please tell me everything is okay.

>>1824224
Is it going to drop? Should I buy right now or should I buy later waiting for a price drop?

>>1824224
everything will be okay in the long term, i'm unsure about the short term, but i'll just sit through it, i sat through the beginning of january with bitcoin, i'll manage now.

>>1824224

>>1824242
Blockfolio. 14.30€ reeeeee im scared
>>1824239
Thanks. I'm new to such tradings and investements and don't want to panik sell. What is 200€ today when you maybe have 2000€ in a few years?

>>1818463
you know what else noticed an uptrend?
the third reich

A few $ up and down is insignificant. Keep buying, keep holding. Imagine this is BTC circa 2011. There's a guy out there who panic-sold BTC because it "crashed" from $20 to $16.

>>1824347
You are right. Please tell me this daily.

I pick up a handful of future-$1000 ETH every day. Whether they cost $12 or $15 means nothing. With what's on the horizon and the amount of traction Ethereum gains every day, buying at sub-$25 prices is like printing money.

>>1824363
Why is everyone so confident in this?
I never hear anyone except here projecting such a big success for Ether.
Sure, it'll grow, but not like Bitcoin.

Where do you buy eth? It seems like this conversion rate is horrible

ETH is INFLATIONARY

who the fuck is buying ETH and not BTC for long term retirement.

any place to buy it directly w/ debit card? I dont have time to go through localbtc bullshit at the moment

>>1824613
>>1824599
Coinbase.

>>1824550
It is resistant to specially made miners that are made just for it's encryption system.

Basically Bitcoin has a bunch of miners made to do one thing-mine bitcoin, which squeezes out even people with really powerful home computers from mining. This helps decentralize the system, whereas bitcoin is centralized on large miners.

>>1824137
>chain forks
>10% of dummies left with a shitcoin
really speaks heaps

>>1824550
it means that chinks can't buy otherwise useless computer processors and run them in a warehouse with free power to control the mining base

85% of btc mining is in china, and the miners hold most of the coins

btc is like diamonds, a small cartel colludes to control the supply keeping prices high

Is it really risky leaving crypto on online exchanges like Coinbase or Kraken?

I don't feel like fucking around with the wallets and transactions.

>>1824616
>Coinbase
you can buy eth directly from there? or you mean btc?

>>1824627
Just download the ETH wallet it takes 5 minutes to write down your code and send it to your wallet.

>>1824632
You can buy directly from ETH. I just bought 6 more a minute ago.

>>1824627
It depends on your amount of coins and what you are planing. If you want to hold for a longer time put them in your wallet. I wouldn't store them too long time at an exchange. They could always become bankrott and "accidentally lose" all coins. Backup your wallet and password over 9k times and you will be safe.

>>1824632
If it's like on Kraken you can deposit Dollars or Euros and just buy ETH or fuck around with trading. You just have to pay 0.005ETH per transfer to you wallet at Kraken.

>>1824637
>>1824636
thanks bros. for some reason, eth wasnt showing up as a currency until I refreshed the page.

whats with the $100 card limit? any way to way to get rid of the limit?

Friendly reminder eth is a pre-mined scamcoin like every other altcoin
