<gmaxwell> man, PHC mailing list really kinda sucks; it's like sci.crypt in the '90s... full of handwaving noise.
<gmaxwell> latest thing is someone 'zomg my new scheme is turing complete and thus provably irreducable' and then waving away any need for any further analysis.
<gmaxwell> Nevermind the fact that it only can reach a tiny subset of all universal circuits of the size in question; and there is no reason to think that the subgroup he can reach isn't dense with trivial circuits. It also ignores the fact that the non-linear compression functions in every other PHC are almost certantly universal in the same way (with sutiable preprocessing); yet many of them have strong
<gmaxwell> proofs about their behavior that show their action is not trivial.
<gmaxwell> then the next thread is someone rediscovering collission hashcash POW, and then shortly there after realizing that it its trivially paralizable and has significant TMTO.

<bramc> CodeShark, Yes I was totally serious about working on it. Next up: A post on basic fee setting strategy.

<CodeShark> dgenr8: I don't think that post is particularly controversial in this channel - but if you go elsewhere you sometimes find these vehement voices insisting we continue to encourage merchant adoption even if it means encouraging them to accept zero confirmation transactions
<CodeShark> but I think the "controversy" tends to miss the real point...which is that zero confirmation transactions cannot rely on very much of Bitcoin's security model
<CodeShark> but it's conceivably ok to accept them given a reasonable security/risk model for the particular use case
<CodeShark> however, given that most people using bitcoin have no clue what this means it's better to discourage zero confirmation transactions

<CodeShark> unless we give them good tools to support such use cases (i.e. subscription services that can be pulled upon double-spend detection)
<dgenr8> CodeShark: people like Balaji Srinivasan say things like "I'm confident the developers are working hard on solving this problem." He's mistaken. And by that I do not mean it's not worth working on. Only that nobody really is.
shen_noe has joined #bitcoin-wizards
<CodeShark> solving which problem? the public perception? or the fact that zero confirmation transactions aren't really secure?
<CodeShark> or double-spend detection?
<CodeShark> fairly reliable double-spend detection would already be a significant breakthrough :)
<CodeShark> the "only relay first" policy makes it trivially simple to split the network
<petertodd> CodeShark: double-spends can happen succesfully well after the first tx, even without miners adopting rbf
<dgenr8> CodeShark: no need to convince me
<petertodd> CodeShark: just run a full-rbf node and watch the logs, you see lots of succesful doublepsends
<CodeShark> petertodd: yes, I'm not saying that absence of a double-spend detection implies the unconfirmed transaction is safe :)
<CodeShark> I'm just pointing out that our current tools don't even do this particularly well
<petertodd> CodeShark: point is, without the ability to do something about the double-spend, it doesn't help much
<CodeShark> petertodd: you can if you're selling services like web hosting :)
<dgenr8> petertodd: doing something about it is not the realm of bitcoin. it's in the realm of real life
<petertodd> CodeShark: if you're selling web-hosting, learning about the double-spend when the tx confirms is fine
<petertodd> dgenr8: ^
<dgenr8> CodeShark: bramc compares zeroconf to life before bitcoin. that fails to ask how the existence of the blockchain alters the problem. i've looked into it somewhat https://github.com/dgenr8/out-there/blob/master/ds-dep-win.md
jae has joined #bitcoin-wizards
<CodeShark> ultimately I think the blockchain is a dispute resolution mechanism. problem is we have no retroactive repudiation mechanisms :)
<CodeShark> it's a feature...and a flaw
<CodeShark> depending on your point of view :)

<nickler_> Are there any known sybil resistant multi-party coin flipping protocols? The problem with commitment based constructions appears to be that an attacker can refuse to reveal if another of his identities profits. Time-lock encryption seems to be able to solve this.
