Guys, I think we might actually be psychopaths. I mean, a psychopath doesn’t think they are one. We buy magic internet money and cheer when the price goes down, and also cheer when it goes up. Always buy, never sell, sometimes spend. From an outside perspective, we look like crazy fucks. #Bitcoin

Why is fear so powerful? It has controlled mankind for eternity. How do many religions depict heaven? A place free from suffering, yeah? A place free from fear. You must behave well, and when you die you will rewarded with liberation from fear.

Do you ever actually feel like a grown up?

@Kieran do I just need to wait for my sub to expire in order to renew? If so, is there any way to buy multiple months of sub?

The new @npub1sn0r...jtws design works beautifully as a PWA on iOS. 🤌🏼🤙🏼 #Nostr #PlebChain

Ragnarok on Netflix tremendous! I cannot believe I slept on this.

Stuck between obsessively learning more about #Bitcoin and wanting to just stack and chill. In related news: There is no good reason to own as many hardware wallets as I do.

Part of my #Bitcoin security architecture is to have solid fiat finances. The number one risk to your stack is you. Whether it’s getting too smart with your security, or too dumb with your fiat finances. Like it or not, you need to play on the fiat system for the foreseeable future.

I keep going back to simple. Like just 2 copies of a seed one at home and one in a safe deposit box. Passphrase that’s easy to remember, but also backed up in a password manager. Like that’s it. Oh, want a hot wallet? Just use Wallet of Satoshi. Like seriously. That would probably be more than enough for 99% of Individuals in reality.

Seed storage / security is a total mind fuck.

LOOKING FOR FEEDBACK: Please punch holes in this #bitcoin custody architecture: 1. Make a fresh, proper 24 word seed phrase. Use dice. (ColdCard MK4) 2. Seed XOR (https://seedxor.com) into 2 parts. (Done on ColdCard) 3. Backup XOR {Seed 1} - 2 Copies 4. Backup XOR {Seed 2} - 3 Copies 5. Distribution Example: 1. Home - {Seed 1} 2. Business Safe (or other personal safe at different location) - {Seed 1} 3. Safe Deposit Box (Bank A) - {Seed 2} 4. Safe Deposit Box (Bank B) - {Seed 2} 5. Family Member Safe (>500 Miles Away) - {Seed 2} 6. Use the base seed phrase as a dummy wallet. 7. Cold storage on passphrase 8. BIP85 derived seeds for anything else. 1. Hot Wallets 2. Hardware Wallets 3. Multisigs 4. Etc I’m envisioning the master seed as the nucleus of everything you do in Bitcoin. Help me make this better. I’m trying to reduce complexity as much as possible while hardening the security of the master seed from which everything will be derived.

You should avoid buying more #Bitcoin than you are willing to protect.

Setting up a robust multi-sig wallet is not a task that you should seek to accomplish quickly. Take. Your. Time. Better security and redundancy are only the tip of the ice berg. #Bitcoin

Lyn’s just out here, doin' the lord's work. 🙏🏼🫡 View quoted note →

It’s that time of the year again where I review my #Bitcoin security, and take the time to look at anything new that I may want to add. This year I’ve been exploring stateless hardware wallets and SeedQR…I might be missing the point, but it feels like technical masturbation to me. So instead of pulling out a hardware device that stores the seed on a secure element, I need to get my actual seed phrase out. Which means taking it out of a tamper bag, closing the blinds, covering any cameras, and loading it onto a device. I get being paranoid, but if you are, wouldn’t you be a touch worried that someone put a hidden camera somewhere, and the moment you take out your seed QR, it gets scanned and swept?
