We are not going to participate in a witch-hunt against certain persons, businesses or miners who support BU, even though a contentious HF would probably be bad for us.



We should not and cannot expect anything else from them than acting in their very own self interest (without breaking any laws of course). Condemning them for that is one of the most depraved things one can do.



This is not true for Bitcoin Core. We should and can expect nothing else from them but to act solely in the interest of all Bitcoin holders. That's why it can be seen as problematic, that certain Core Developers have 70m of venture capital in their back, pushing them for a return of their investment.

Can you explain me how Blockstream exactly affects bitcoin in a bad way? Did you ever look at the projects they are working on (which are fully open-source)?



I am only glad that at least 1 company is interested in funding development of cool bitcoin improvements. Blockstream actually works (and has worked) on many interesting/innovative projects: Relative Lock Time, Segregated Witness, Lightning Network, Confidential Transactions, Sidechains, Schnorr Signatures, Mimblewimble, Extra Opcodes, etc. If any company is investigating new bitcoin innovations, it would be Blockstream.



Stop believing the /r/btc FUD blindly please.



Please do not misunderstand us. We are not saying the Blockstream is bad. The argument was, that we have to apply a much much higher standard to the Core Devs than to anyone else in the community. If there is only the slightest indication of a conflict of interest between the work at Blockstream and Core, than these people affected have to leave one of the projects.





r/btc is low quality - no one should take seriously or believe anything that is written there. Same is true for r/bitcoin. Please do not misunderstand us. We are not saying the Blockstream is bad.

We finished this far ahead of schedule as there might be a high demand for it.

There are still certain information missing and some minor bugs need to be fixed. We didn't put too much effort into the User Interface. We will make a nicer one in our new release of Fairlay that is going live in April.



Anyway, you can already take a first glimpse here:

Feedback is of course welcomed.

Currently our entire team is working on a new release of our website with a better design and improved usability. We decided to stop this for a moment to work on something, that we think, the community desperately needs right now: Futarchy markets.

Futarchy markets go back to the famous Robin Hanson (

Users, miners or companies could support a certain protocol change, they originally dismissed, by short selling on the corresponding futarchy market and buying on the Bitcoin spot market at the same time to guarantee a sure profit.

Alternatively, market participants who have deeper insight, which protocol change is indeed the best for the long term success of Bitcoin, have the option to increase the likelihood of that change and make profits in the process.

First markets can be found here:

https://fairlay.com/category/news/bitcoin-futarchy/all/

If you like to have another market, you can create any Future market yourself without permission and instantly on our website.

We are sorry, that the UI is not the best right now. We focused on the functionality. It will be better with our new release.

It is proven, that these markets aggregate informations with a much higher efficiency than experts or polls. Furthermore they allow market participants to comply with a decision they were originally rejecting. That would increase the chances of achieving consensus - something we could really use right now.Users, miners or companies could support a certain protocol change, they originally dismissed, by short selling on the corresponding futarchy market and buying on the Bitcoin spot market at the same time to guarantee a sure profit.Alternatively, market participants who have deeper insight, which protocol change is indeed the best for the long term success of Bitcoin, have the option to increase the likelihood of that change and make profits in the process.First markets can be found here:If you like to have another market, you can create any Future market yourself without permission and instantly on our website.We are sorry, that the UI is not the best right now.

NewbieActivity: 47Merit: 0 Sorting Markets April 01, 2017, 12:47:03 AM #912 I've noticed in the last week or so that the sports market choices are not sorting properly. An example of this is when I click on Hockey, I get the hockey markets ok, then I click on NHL OT Included and that works ok but when I click to further sort the results like clicking on Moneyline the results are Moneylines for all hockey leagues and not my previously requested NHL OT Included.



This caused me a big issue last night when I booked a NHL Regular Time game instead of OT Included.



Are you aware of this?



Thank you,

Last edit: April 01, 2017, 04:29:30 AM by FairlaySupport #915 As we are an outspoken critic of the 1MB blockers at Core, we received some complaints, calling us BU trolls and similiar things. Just to make it clear for once. We reject nothing more than a solution that will result in a permanent chain split. BU has not the necessary community support and we reject it. We are supporting a hard fork to SegWit and 2 MB blocks. We'd support any solution, that brings back the transaction fees to 3-10c, fixes transaction malleability, enables the concept of sidechains (2-way-peg for projects like Rootstock) and has the majority of the community behind it.

I mean I know its important for all of us in bitcoin World but it is not as predictable as a football games result. I know give or take what Monaco-Metz will be, I have no idea what BU and core will do. I think the reason the betting amount is low could be people thinking that sports are much more fun than the result of what we are going to do with our block sizes and transaction fees.I mean I know its important for all of us in bitcoin World but it is not as predictable as a football games result.
