Now that I think about it there is a non zero chances that the ethereum foundation is and has been sponsoring bitcoin core developers. Like why the fuck would a bitcoin core developer add support for ethereum in their bitcoin products. Pretty sus. nostr:note1me0saqzuts6jelptxkr355u6tvx6pvqj8clqysu3clvnvxnq7xzqa80paa

Wait what did I miss. I skip a couple optech letters and we got eth in bitcoin now?
He's referring to casa offering secure storage for ETH.
oh ok. hasent casa been a shitcoin product for a while now?
Just ETH. Lopp has a blog post on the reasoning. nostr:nprofile1qqs0w2xeumnsfq6cuuynpaw2vjcfwacdnzwvmp59flnp3mdfez3czpspzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtc55qsvp got that link?
Oh lol its prolly in my rss then if its on his blog.
To be clear, ETH and highly demanded tokens on Ethereum.
Stablecoins are a huge demand driver.
I don't recall writing a blog post about the reasoning because it fits in a single sentence.
There was sufficient demand to secure value on the Ethereum network, and providing security services is our core competency.
Is this your own opinion or did Vatalik pay you to think like this? Let’s cut to the chase. Has the Eth foundation ever approached you?
I've never talked to the Ethereum Foundation. Last time I talked to Vitalik was around 2020 at MIT Bitcoin Expo.
It may be difficult for you to believe, but people pay Casa for our services. 😊
I love and respect you JLopp but you must remember that prostitutes mostly have their services paid for.
Getting paid is not justification for violating values.
And what you get paid for often shows others where your values are.
value secured🫡
Yeah, I was reminded by this poor decision with Lopps recent shenanigans.
i already see enough previews of retarded videos with raoul pal constantly being posted by my boss and meanwhile the cost of running apps on shitcoin chains inevitably goes up dramatically after all the hype dies down and the dumbass invest00rs are onto the next new hotness
i'm not reading that shit on my fucking nostr feed, and that goes for the endless bullshit about "nEcCeSsArY cHaNgEs" to bitcoin protocol
newsflash: the changes aren't necessary, all shitcoins are just milking retail with hype, there is no real product because no sane service provider is going to use the least efficient database system for their product, only silly people who are chasing after grants from these endless stream of scams
these people live in a dream world... the front end of the app i'm building a server for takes 4-8 seconds to action anything, and they don't even bother to build a queue for pushing these events "because they aren't in the db yet)
5 second average confirmation delay
meanwhile, nostr relays accept events and instantly propagates them to clients
Don't forget this too:
I will be switching to knots in the coming days 🤜🤛
Awesome. I feel it gives you more choice. Disclaimer: I may or may not be wrong about the PR, I haven't looked any further into it yet than just this video. But optionality is very important for Bitcoin consensus and knots seems to be determined to offer better optionality.
I disagree sir.
I think it's something more diabolical than that
Most OGs also hold large eth bags.
But who did something like that? 🤔 there is something that doesn't add up
