Increasing hashrate -> blocks arrive faster until difficulty adjusts -> 161 blocks in past 24 hours -> 11% effective block size increase.
@roasbeef Ah OK, I’m more worried about the present at the moment :-)

@elidourado @brian_armstrong I’d think the biggest challenge would be handling privacy so that only authorized users could resolve location.
@elidourado @brian_armstrong You could update your location (GPS?) with a click of a button or even set to auto-update.
@elidourado @brian_armstrong I imagine we’d want a new type of system like DNS, but preferably decentralized & permissionless.

@kryptokidz_ @Dashpay @Bytecoin_BCN @monerocurrency @SamouraiWallet Zero knowledge proofs enable us to sever the links between txns.
@kryptokidz_ @Dashpay @Bytecoin_BCN @monerocurrency @SamouraiWallet They are nice, but obfuscation does not offer the same level of privacy.
@MyceliumCom your testnet server appears to be out of sync
