This years noble prize for physics went to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for proving Quantum effects can happen at the macro scale.
This means physical laws, like the speed of light for example, are probably true most of the time, but are not absolutely true all the time.

I was last night years old when I learned about signing Bitcoin transactions using MPC keys
Like Multisig, but a single sharded key that never comes together reducing the attack vector on signed transactions.
The best way to describe it is, imagine I wish to perform a multiply operation, for example 132 x 72.
Now imagine 72 is the UTXO (public) transaction.
And 132 is the secret key.
Not only do I not want any signer to know this number (132), I don't want it to ever been constructed, so I get three people to do 3 sums:
1st person: 100 x 72 = 7,200
2nd person 30 x 72 = 2,160
3rd person 2 x 72 = 144
I can then add the three outputs together = 9,504
I have signed (added together for this example) the message, without ever revealing or even constructing my key (132).
This is an analogy, key sharding and signing are more involved, but this gives a general concept.

I'm tired, but not hung over today ๐
Just come from being wined and dined by @Xapo Bank
I thought Iโd be the only one, but it turns out they have other customers ๐ฅน
I didnโt want to dox anybody at the event, so here is a photo of me on the train home ๐


Remember 2008 ๐ณ

Iโm on a train with lousy Internet, I blame @Derek Ross ๐

I think it's a slow news day today.
But in other news, I'm being wined and dined by a bank tonight ๐
Is trolling one of our own allowed? ๐
