Quantum computing and bitcoin - making my call right here and now Depending on who you listen to, the "quantum threat" to bitcoin is either (a) purely FUD to be ignored, or (b) an inevitable truth that's coming with the when? as the only question, such as in five-ish or ten-ish years out (2030-2040).

Some thoughts and experimenting with Magi.eco

I'm kind of liking the discourse, discussion, and bickering. It's what makes Nostr good and makes it better. My knee jerk thoughts: - it's just cool that on-chain zaps can be done - it's extremely expensive it's overkill to do it on-chain when LN works faster - I get that privacy issues on-chain are an issue; that said, if you want to publicly give me a million dollars, or 10 or a billion, I'll accept it; when people win the lottery in places that require it to be publicly known, I've never heard of anyone to say, "No thank you" - the market will work it out; currently, the market is clearly on the side of LN and I think the market will only lean even more so that way as "number go up" let innovation innovate; we'll decide what sticks Overall, I think the free market will work it out and on-chain zaps will pass but the ability to innovate break new unexplored ground is a good thing too. https://stacker.news/items/1491383

On-chain bitcoin zap I just received an on-chain bitcoin zap. On Nostr, "zaps" are bitcoin sats given as tips to others. Until a day or two ago, they were sent over the Lightning Network (LN). They still are over LN, and that's likely the best way to do it, but they can now to sent on-chain. I just got one. https://i.ecency.com/... Bridged via Hostr at

Grin lesson for bitcoin? Recently, I've been thinking about Grin. If you're a bit new to bitcoin or "crypto" (like since 2021 or 22-ish), you may not be familiar with Grin. And that's essentially why I'm writing. It used to be a thing, now it seems to be nothing much at all. Quick refresher for those familiar with Grin and intro... Bridged via Hostr at

In 2009 I saw the Braves and had great seats. Bobby Cox was right there most of the game. So neat to hear him interact with the players-cheered for them when batting, things like, "Come on kid! Here we go!" If they struck out, he didn't say a word. No wonder they loved him.

Im sitting at the horse track and just wondered - they now build humanoid robots that win marathons, when will an equine robot show up and what jockey will ride it? And will it take down Secretariat's times?
