floppy is a deeply irresponsible, immoral and sad person. this is the final chapter of his already ruined reputation. he’s so deranged that his entire existence revolves around hating cashu. imagine being so obsessed with a protocol that you waste your life attacking the people actually building the infrastructure for bitcoin. two weeks ago, he disclosed a denial-of-service bug, which we immediately patched and even paid him a small bounty for reporting. since then, he’s been cryptically tweeting about it nonstop — and now, just two weeks later, he’s threatening to DoS any mint that hasn’t updated yet. if you support this person in any way — through conference invites, collaborations, or funding — you’re associating yourself with one of the worst individuals in bitcoin. don’t forget: this is someone who was once banned from the bitcoin mailing list for threatening to murder a core dev. people tend to forget what kind of subhuman scum hides among us. maybe one day he’ll actually create something useful. have you ever seen one of his projects in use? where’s all that privacy tech he loves to larp about? exactly. he’d rather sit drunk in his lonely cave, obsessing over cashu. update to nutshell 0.18.0. a patch will follow soon for anyone already affected. ignore. avoid. warn your peers. image

as an adversarial thinker, i sympathize with what he's doing. as a person, i don't agree with how he's doing it. but, don't underestimate the value of someone who reports first. not everyone does that
i mean... yeah? 🤷 would you rather someone report first, or blow everything up without warning? this is only going to get easier with ai
i can assure you that if there a way to steal money using it, there are many people in this world that would take it all without bothering to feel malicious. like picking up coins off the ground
tedious. they're ignoring target value (no one cares about poisoning the salt shakers) and threat modeling (cameras and campus police are a better solution). what happens when those salt shakers are filled with gold flakes, and any of 7 billion people who can empty them? it isn't the same game
The positive side of this is that the cashu mints will eventually be more resilient because of his psycho behavior.
Calle is deeply irresponsible, immoral and sad person. Calle's double standard is just disgusting. Calle is supporter of OP_RETURN spam and the change to 100 000 Bytes which allowed porn video on the Bitcoin blockchain. He supports Core v30. Core v30 is essentially a malware to Bitcoin because allows more spam. But he now whines like a little girl that a weakness in nutshell can be exploited and the cashu nuteshell servers can be filled with spam and JPEGS. image Also floppy made a responsible disclosure to affected parites. https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/public-disclosure-denial-of-service-using-htlc-in-cashu/2090
Peace&Unity over war! Core is rogue but we can't punish people running cachu mints for that reason. Eye for an eye makes us all blind. Am an African and i tell you cashu helps people transact bitcoin without internet which is a plus for the unpriviledged.
Then you should understand that you dont actually own that money, and you can lose access to it any day if the custodian doesnt want you to have it anymore Thats why what Floppy is doing is a net good. People are quickly getting way too complacent
Almost like his behavior is actually rational and good. You may not be familiar with security, but this is very normal. Vuln disclosed, time given for patching, then disclosure. Very basic stuff Whats not normal is Calle crying like a little bitch because hes not competent enough to build non-custodial solutions lol
If anything that would be Calle. You think central banks want self custody? 😂 ecash proponents never tend to be that bright
He thinks bitcoin should retain its attributes that make it money Calle is a dishonest scammer whore who is a net negative on the entire community

are they actually a minor or do you mean they are being less mature than is within their capacity as an adult?
War is never a net good! I run a mint and i can assure you that with ecash rug pulls are actually difficult since they are multiple mints and one can spread their bitcoin across many mints. But you can't deny the fact that ecash has privacy benefits and can be used without the internet nor does it need to be transfered digitally. That is a net positive!
