Better at what? Both have confidential txs. Monero adds one time stealth addresses and ring signatures in addition to obscure the transaction graph (Liquid doesn't). Monero wins that hands down and soon to have full chain membership proofs to completely hide it. I don't think Liquid even has plans ...

No it won't. Power law is incompatible with an asset that has a fixed supply.

Also isn't this like saying the internet isn't everything and never will be. See newspapers and telegraphs still exist.

URSF stands for User Rejected Soft Fork. If miners were to activate BIP110, URSF nodes would reject this so the chain splits between BIP110 nodes that enforce the new soft fork rules and URSF nodes that don't. It's a way for users and miners to say: we're not going along with your soft fork, and w...

The spam supporters don't like the idea of Bitcoin being clean of spam and not abused by large jpegs and other arbitrary large data. So they attack BIP 110 to reject clean Bitcoin blocks from BIP 110 which will lead to chain split. They will create a spamcoin similar to bcash. They do it becuase the...

That will never happen, just as it has not happened with gold over the millennia of history.

There is gold, silver, stocks, houses, land, and thousands of other things that people save up for. To think that Bitcoin was going to be the only thing is a bit silly; that's Saylor's narrative. Bi...

That's bear market cope.
Bitcoin is either going to be completely destroyed by something or it is becoming the only savings vehicle and the only currency of planet earth.

The only concession I can make is that it will take milenials to become boomers - 40 years - for this to play out.
Sailor is going to be long time dead by then.

People only use different currencies and use different stuff as savings because humanity did not have money until Bitcoin.

I don't know. I suspect the guy who run Predyx *can* update it but it might upset people. Perhaps there has been an unexpected amount of Yes betters because other people spotted this "bug" in the res...

But based on "No" condition, it would be "No" if blocks are slow:
"This market resolves to “No” if, at 11:59:59 PM PT on September 1, 2026 (06:59:59 UTC on September 2, 2026), the Bitcoin chain with the greatest cumulative proof-of-work:
Includes one or more blocks that violate BIP-110 rules.”

If we aren't at the activation height yet then there "can't" be a block that violates BIP110 rules, because one of the rules is that the rules only change after blockheight 965,664. Before that blockheight, BIP110's rules are the same as Bitcoin's rules. Well, except for the miner signaling rule, w...
