BIP110 reminds me of when people try to force change in a church without building consensus and instead resorting to manipulation. It just divides.

Security is pretty neat; I run security for a place in a bad area of town. First, I acknowledge that God is the one who keeps us safe, not my skill or strength. What Ive found is that if you make an area uncomfortable to trespassers, the area becomes 10x safer. Sirens, trespass orders, escorting them off the premises etc. But if you let just one hang out because they “arent bothering anyone” it’s like a secret signal gets sent out to all the tweaking addicts and prostitutes to come running down to your place. It is really something to see. The broken window theory is 100% true.

Bitcoin suffering a powerful attack. Bitcoin:

Remind me never to piss @Laser off

Might be good for humanity since it is a privacy nightmare.

The battle is on. Infinite Slop vs Absolute Scarcity

Ugh. AI bots. Block.

Do you remember why you got into Bitcoin? My reasons are ideological. It helps me understand that being a Bitcoiner means I am under attack.

Waaa waaa waaa everyone is paying attention to Coinkite and not Knots and Bip110

Your passphrase is child’s play to a computer that gets infinite tries.

When I first learned about Bitcoin, I was like… if I cant code it then I dont believe it. 1) I wrote just a random 256-bit generator that I turned into a base58 number. Learned how to do the legacy address. Sent my life savings to it after playing with it a while, which wasnt much. Months later I needed to move it and the base58 number didnt work as my private key. My heart sank. Then I learned I needed to convert it to WIF. Problem solved. But man was that scary! 2) I wrote a HWW software for a specific use case. I created some wallets and moved some money into them. But I got this nagging feeling I didnt do something right. Found I was doing PRNG not TRNG because I kept getting similar outcomes from a different random function I was running on the HWW of like displaying a random background picture on startup. I spent a bunch of time in the MCU documentation (ah the days before AI) finding out how to use its TRNG and what cryptographic strengths it actually. You can really quite easily screw up.

I feel like this dev is underrated

Good thing no one hacks gold.

To my Christian brethren today: May the Lord bless and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.

Dice dont save you from software you dont understand and wasnt properly reviewed and scrunitized by 100s of anon autists.

😂

Every Bitcoin specific item you bought and had mailed to you potentially puts you on a $5 wrench attack murder list. From hats to HWWs.

Classic

Disgusting

The superiority of Core isnt just TRNG. It is knowing your transaction is going to the right address. That your reference for double spend protection is correct. That no other middleman is tracking you. That your Bitcoin is real Bitcoin.
