NVK likes to buy domain names π€
Nostriches could fund a wallet to finance the purchase of domains for seedsigner to use. Would this help to tackle the issue?
what's your honest oppinion on the attacks listed?
Hmm.
We all know who did it.
Though many influencers canβt say who did it because they have been forced to sign non-disparagement agreements in exchange for π°

NVK owner of Coldcard throwing tantrums.
No, the issue is people still promote coinkite even though their founders are shady AF.
Ball n chain man
Why does seedsigner.org point to bitkey?
NVK trying to instigate drama and conflict?
NVK back on his bullshit. If you believe in FOSS know that any money you give coldcard is likely to be used to harass FOSS devs.
Also CC isn't FOSS, he closed the open source code he stole. That's right stole. If you close code that was open to try to line your own pockets that is stealing from the open source community.

Apparently, seedsigner is directly over the target?
Appears to redirect to bitkey privacy notice site now
i don't think it's gonna be anything specifically malicious. it's just plain old domain squatting. "oh it's a different name, but maybe they will pay us to transfer it to them"
malicious in the sense that they are making a calculated guess that a unique name that isn't registered that has some registered might be rich and then they will not care to spend $500 to nail down this one which isn't as ideal but ok.
the monopoly on TLD is the suck. you sholud be seedsigner. as in like www.seedsigner.
Bitch ass behavior like what is being done here to seed signer, is a good reason to put certain hardware on your personal blacklist.

i strongly suspect that more than a few of the assholes i hate in the rockstar brigade are in a conspiracy. this just shows how far back it goes

Haha you get it πͺ
If you criticize ColdCard for being source viewable and not FOSS, NVK will call you a communist. I think thatβs the first time in my life anyone has accused me of being communist π
_IF_ nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 owns any of those domains, Iβm sure heβd redirect to wherever the βrealβ destination should be if the SS dev team asked (or transfer control of domain name). But Iβm not convinced redirection destination is proof of ownership (itβs just suspicious, not proof).
instant follow, my spidey sense never fails me and i see the pattern here
Get yourself an .i2p address and say fuck you to the DNS.
I think it's worth recording and timestamping the`whois` reports for these domains today. Many were updated -- within minutes or hours of each other. It feels like they're all controlled by the same decision maker. If you don't timestamp these as they are right now, will lose that this activity occurred in response to this post since someone can decide to update later in a less suspicious manner.
It redirects to bitkey.world for me
?
For those asking, the redirects are changing now, possibly as a result of this information being made public.
Nostr is about freedom. You are free to purchase domains too, even redirect them.

What are you referring to?
just because something is a 'good business' decision, doesnt mean you cant look like a petty tool while doing it.
He wouldn't because he's a cunt.
Honestly all seems above board to me. Someone disagrees with seedsigner and is purchasing domains to make this known. Free market purchase of domains, and freedom of speech. Although the way the decided to go about communicating their disagreement was pretty inventive I would say and obviously antagonistic. Nothing wrong with antagonism though. Let the best ideas win.

it's one thing to criticize a concept but it just sucks from an ethical standpoint to keep fighting a project that has good intentions, innovation and just a good and honest product. it feels like skepticism has turned into real dislike and dissatisfaction over the years
Feels like he hates competition, and hates that something might be more accessible and less expensive and more secure than his overpriced calculator.

So strange. Whoever is doing this must be obsessed with slowing the progress of the seed signer project. But I''m not sure how effective it is, if at all.

the state of .i2p addresses isn't that great. you own your b32.i2p address, but if you want a vanity i2p address you basically go to a registrar and ask for them to pretty please add it to a text file. it's first come first served, and they selectively mirror each other. you don't own it and there's nothing stopping a registrar from pointing it at something else. they may also drop it at their own discretion for made up reasons like if the contents of your eepsite are "overtly offensive." the obvious solution would be to just do the associations on a blockchain thing but this hasn't been built out yet.

funny not funny.
I meant more in regards to what they were doing to seedsigner. But yeah curious to see what the competition does. Would be better if the sats werenβt tied in to the credit

β¦I have a group of frenz Ive helped initiate their BTC journey who own fairly large sums of BTC and Iβve found myself recommending the foundation products with a few cold card tapsigners for multisig storage (makes geographic dispersion easy) thru sparrow and or nunchuck
The seed signer tech is fascinating but I will be following people with stronger tech backgrounds (like my fav quant) before I dip my toe into it. π«‘π«
Also is there some credible info out there that coinkite is involved in this?
Or just speculation?
This is a valid point. Another way of looking at it is who else benefits from this and who else was very vocal against seedsigner? All valid questions to ask imo
I donβt know the seed signer dev or nvk personally so I wouldnβt be able to answer this.
I have strong evidence that links Coinkite and/or NVK as the definitive owners of the domain names.
There are also domains they own relating to other projects, and name-squatting attempts at Nostr and Bitcoin related domains.
Oh I wasnβt advocating for either one. Though I am very interested in what foundation is doing. Itβs just not the first time Iβve heard things like these.

Man, you really like sniffing NVK's farts, don't you? He is well documented being antagonistic towards foss projects and seed Signer in particular. If you're head is so far up your own ass, you can't see that. I guess that's your own problem and not mine. Β―\_(γ)_/Β―

I appreciate that the good Dr. would want to give a friend the benefit of the doubt, but at some point the evidence adds up.
Thereβs enough that I believe would link to him.
But we will get concrete evidence soon enough.
Iβll think twice before giving him sats. Keep in mind this wasnβt a payment in fiat. Sats in advance. Itβs appreciating but you still get the purchasing power of the fiat amount 2 years ago. Thatβs gonna leave a sour taste for a while.

Man heβs got you fooled. Just follow the breadcrumbs. Foundation. The truly FOSS blockclock. And for years heβs been openly bashing Seedsigner (the person and the project). Those are just a few.
Those sats are probably word 1.7-2x the amount when we gave him the deposit.
I definitely understand wanting to give someone the benefit of the doubt....but at this point It just feels like willful ignorance.

what is he doing on the board of opensats then, which is specifically to help open source devs and projects?
This is a completely fair question. Some people really, really do not like it being asked, but based upon his personal behavior and the stated goal of the organization, this is an entirely fair question to be asking.
Ask him Iβm just saying what happened when I criticized ColdCard for not being FOSS. Maybe he likes others to use open source so he can fork the code and close source it ?
