At 500k bitcoin, the largest UTXO ever created was worth more than MicroStrategy's entire stack.

I know you always talk about the minimum utxo but what's the biggest utxo you would make? For privacy sake in the future

Really depends on your stack size. Probably no more than 20% of my stack in a single UTXO.

What is the best argument against one massive UTXO in cold storage? Does splitting actually increase privacy that much?

Presumably you're assuming non-kyc coins and the motivation is to keep them separate?

Privacy. Whenever you spend from that single UTXO, however you’re paying will see your change. Also, if anyone pays you and then sees that payment get consolidated together with the rest of your coins, then they’ll have an idea of how much bitcoin you have.

Is there a specific reasoning for the mention of 20% of your stack for a max UTXO? I definitely went too big on some recent cold storage transactions and it seems like it makes more sense to move funds in sizes closer to an optimal UTXO based on expected transaction fees

Holy shit, didn't realize you were on #nostr, Wicked. Nice.

Truth. The times I get sucked back into Twitter I always found myself in threads with nostr:nprofile1qqs27tmg9agj3xv993n9flcxt2jqtfqazh3trjmvj9e3yds9w38sdespypmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuargv4hhyctwvajhq6tvd3shqupwvdhk6qg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0qyv8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndehhyapwwdhkx6tpds6mzk67. Glad to see him on nostr. Engagement here might be more limited, but it's higher value in my opinion.

How do we get all sick your visualizations in a nice centralized place where we can view, filter and sort through them!

That was me. Just moving some dust
