I enjoyed this chat. It had something for everyone.

Flat 13's. What's your call, consolidation now or wait for lower (single digit) bid rates

3 days on nostr, finding lots of new people to follow. it's much busier than I realised, hope to keep discovering more interesting content.

"I wanted something that expressed the fun I had using the internet, as well as hit on the skill, and yes, endurance necessary to use it well. I also needed something that would evoke a sense of randomness, chaos, and even danger. I wanted something fishy, net-like, nautical." - The women who coined the expression 'Surfing the Internet' 🤙

how do you pick your fee rate anon?

I have tried nostr on and off for many years. It's time to try again. Relay list refreshed, LFG

Only the higher bid Stops transactions not desired Silence your protest.

If you can write down 12 words you can enter 99 real dice rolls. That said, tools which allow you to enter dice rolls should prevent you from accidentally entering too few rolls and generating an insecure seed. The instructions are simple. 1. Enter 99 real dice rolls. 2. Optional: First enter 99 dice rolls on the signing device AND a tool like BitcoinQ_A's seed tool to check they match. IF they do match, RESET the signing device and enter 99 NEW dice rolls ONLY on the signing device (and NOT on any other device). If you do the optional step of verifying you can sleep well at night without wondering whether the device random number generation was random, without needing to verify both the firmware and the hardware. What about Coldcard, I read that users lost funds? Although Coldcard is not FOSS you can view the source code to see exactly what the bug was and how it was fixed. There was a warning since the dice rolls feature was added in 2019, but users could (and did) override this.

This is not a hypothetical problem. Here is a very unfortunate example of a user who made the error of ignoring the warning screen, which resulted in lost bitcoin. IMO fixes like this should be included in firmware updates for old models unless there is a technical limitation which makes this impractical.

Before bitcoin core v0.7.0 the default transaction selection algorithm was to pack transactions sorted by transaction priority, where priority was equal to the coin age (in blocks) multiplied by the spent value, divided by the transaction size. The default policy also set a minimum transaction fee that increased as the space in blocks grew closer to the blocksize limit.
