Back in September I publicly offered to enter into a wager with anyone who was claiming that Bitcoin Core v30 was going to result in a massive node crash / network outage. Nary a Knotzi took me up on it, to my great chagrin. Today I'm making a similar, but better, offer to BIP-110 supporters. I propose we enter into a trustless fork futures contract. I'll take the side that will make the deposited BTC only spendable if BIP-110 fails, you take the side that's only spendable upon success. Minimum 1 BTC wager to make it worth my time. Come take my coins and show us your conviction! Who will have the guts to put their money where their mouth is? @Bitcoin Mechanic @Luke Dashjr @Matthew Kratter @knutsvanholm @hodlonaut BIP110 @Renaud Cuny

Comedy gold. After missing out on bitcoin gains for 15 years, the guy behind the Buttcoin account on X has launched a memecoin. And in typical Buttcoiner fashion, he's so far behind the curve that he launched in a bear market. What an idiot, he won't even get much out of this grift. image

As a security engineer, I thrive upon being attacked. Novel attacks, while scary in the moment, pose interesting challenges to devise defenses against. Not being attacked is boring. Bring it on!

Should we worry about Bitcoin's security budget? I won't worry unless miner revenue drops epoch over epoch. 1st epoch: $0B 2nd epoch: $2B 3rd epoch: $16B 4th epoch: $46B 5th epoch: $27B so far We're on track for miners to earn slightly more revenue than in epoch 4. image
