I wanted to rotate my BTC keys and made a post (https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1phbgrk/generating\_and\_storing\_a\_btc\_private\_key/) but that seemed a bit too complex. People also suggested that 2/3-multisig is better approach than to split a single seed. My current plan is: There are a few goals to achieve: Redundancy Plausible Deniability against Wrench Attacks Simplicity Robustness against idiosyncratic failures […]
Back in 2012/13 I was sysadmin for some Resorts with employee housing. Engineer in one of the units was into BTC and had a miner in his room. I allocated a specific amount of bandwidth on the guest vlan for his rig and he flipped this MJB to me. Otherwise I gape at BTC from […]
Setting ETF costs aside (I currently pay 0.25% for FBTC), what is the benefit of buying the actual coin and self storing. It is not like you are going to conduct a transaction. I am pretty sure 99+% of folks are just in it as an investment. There are all kinds of issues we hear […]
Ethical principles that bitcoin was initiated on, exemplifies the goodwill and the true benevolent intention of the founder. The immaculate conception of the bitcoin protocol can be interpreted as a one time incident, most probably, if you observe the timeline of this coordinated effort led by a pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, in retaliation of the existing […]
Whenever I try to introduce friends to the original Satoshi idea of using peer-to-peer digital cash for simple everyday settlements (splitting dinner, paying someone back), the friction always becomes the sticking point. Explaining fee markets, channel liquidity, routing failures, or waiting multiple confirmations usually ends with them just asking for my PayPal or cash. What […]

Spent the last three weeks trying to set up a basic trust for my family because I don't want my stack lost forever if something stupid happens to me The amount of "professional" estate attorneys who charge $600/hr and still think bitcoin is a physical coin stored on a usb stick is mind blowing. one […]
Has anyone looked into natinfosec’s articles about Blockstream? They allege that its cloud mining business operates as a Ponzi scheme and that investors have been misled. https://natinfosec.substack.com/p/adam-backs-blockstream-borrows-billions https://natinfosec.substack.com/p/adam-back-lies-greg-maxwell-chris https://natinfosec.substack.com/p/fraud-adam-back-samson-mow-chris Has Blockstream responded, or are there independent analyses that substantiate or rebut these claims? If Blockstream were to become insolvent, what would the practical consequences be […]
