@zquestz @LarryBitcoin @rogerkver Signatures are only really needed for new txns. Once sufficient PoW secures a txn, can assume it’s valid.
@zquestz @LarryBitcoin @rogerkver These days most of a block’s data is only transferred once - as unconfirmed txns.
@zquestz @LarryBitcoin @rogerkver SW does away with the concept of “block size” and replaces it with “block weight.”
@zquestz @LarryBitcoin @rogerkver Uh… “on chain scaling” covers a variety of techniques. Including Segregated Witness…
@SarahJamieLewis Plus proof that they all passed recent STD tests? 😬
@joseandreschl @rogerkver Hopefully will publish on @coindesk in a few weeks, depending upon how long the artwork takes.
@juscamarena @brianchoffman Hmmmm well you’d only be able to doublespend the inputs you owned at a higher effective fee rate. Maybe…

@Melt_Dem @breitwoman @tez0s Thanks for doing this series; it’s a refreshing new perspective.
If only there was some solution that was able to dynamically adjust demand so that it matched supply… 🤔 https://t.co/sqrOCJFfkE

@Stl_o @twobitidiot No, there are a variety of techniques (technical, geographical, regulatory) to achieve lower power costs.
@twobitidiot Alternative view:
Miners “buy” new coins at fraction of market price and HODL most of them, so the numbers are actually lower.
@jvrmardones If their addresses do start with a 3 but you are suspicious, you can always ask us to confirm.
