Median is a whole different animal, of course. A ballpark number would probably be around $100K. More than two thirds in Miami do not own their home is why it seems lower than you might guesstimate. At the same time, I don't know if this is jurors on cases only or includes those just showing up for jury duty -- as that could skew the median number significantly down even further.
One doesn't just "launch a new coin." Not a new proof-of-work coin, at least.
Bitcoin survived launch because the people who would later want it gone neither knew nor cared about it. By the time it was a nuisance, it was too big to cheaply grief. That window closed long, long ago.
A new SHA-256 coin, launched today, with any price worth attacking, gets griefed into irrelevance by SHA-256 hardware that already exists. A new GPU coin gets the same treatment from the rental market. "Go start your own coin" is not a general method for molding a better Bitcoin.
BIP-110 is not a counterexample. It is a one-off, the same way BCH was a one-off. It does not become the next Bitcoin, but it persists.
$128k/day (at today's $285/BTC2B) is enough to keep the operable Sia boxes on. $12/day is not. SHA-256 majority hashrate cannot take that revenue away without buying a different machine. Amassing enough of those machines to 51% it already takes real capital, even with most of Bitcoin wanting this chain dead.
And yes: if someone does it anyway, the people on this chain will orphan the attack. Software patch, checkpoint, whatever is required to get through the window where the hardware class is still thin. That is ugly. It is also how a minority fork that has already changed PoW refuses to die. Call it not-Bitcoin if you want. That does not make the chain go away.
BIP-110 will still be here. But it will not be the model. There is no model.
Thanks to a message on their Telegram, I found out that I needed to update my app to v3.0.31. Fixed the issue immediately.
Their custodial service worked great for me, ... until they de-banked me (using it from the U.S.).
Today, something got borked. #1558117

For a while ~jobs/new listed a number of jobs where compensation was in bitcoin.
Both Cash App and Strike permit direct deposit. Cash App lets you receive that in BTC if you want. Strike has this as well
I make Link posts and create Discussion posts when I have something I believe others might appreciate seeing.
I visit SN daily, because SN does a pretty great job of providing a shortlist of posts, most of which I should at last be aware of.
[Omarchy is] going to make the prophecy of The Year of Linux on the Desktop come true. All the pieces are now in place. Time to go all in!
I think you are playing with me, ... possibly not though.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median is the middle value.
Alice has $1 in cash. Bob has $10. Eve has $8,989.
What is the average cash per person?
Average: $3,000
Proof: $9,000 total / 3 persons = $3,000
What is the median amount?
Median: $10
Proof: The set of values are: $1, $10, $8,989. With an odd number of values, the median is the middle value. In this case, that's $10
