Ok somebody who has more details please chime in on this. Looks like Luke Dashjr was working with the FBI and got a ton of Bitcoiners placed on an FBI watch list. What the fuck is this shit?! I’m just hearing about it now. Is he totally compromised? I assume he knows better than most how to track down Bitcoin transactions on the blockchain? I don’t know, but in my mind I just have this vision of a sophisticated computer hacker wearing a Guy Fawks mask (Luke) walking into an FBI building talking about “Please guys come quick!”

Kinda pissed off that I had to stop my Bitaxes 😤 to uninstall Bitcoin Core and all of the associated apps. Time to go back in time 16 years to 2009 and sync up the blockchain with #bitcoinknots 🪢 Funny thing is Bitcoin Core hasn’t even pushed the Unlimited OP_RETURN changes through yet, but the fact that they would entertain this idea makes me want to throw my node out the window. I’m just thankful #lukedashjr prepared an escape hatch from this shitcoin contagion! 😷 42 bytes max embedded data or go fuck yourself! #bitcoin #bitaxe⛏️ #noderunner🏃‍♂️

Seems like the general consensus is that Nostr messaging isn’t private, but this is an anonymous, decentralized platform right? So how can messages not be private? Could someone please ELI5? #asknostr
