one year return:

bitcoin (orange) vs gold (green) vs stocks (s&p 500) (blue)

bitcoin holding $13k here while stonks get rekt is pretty fucking bullish tbh

I was mistaken. They have not implemented proper stealth addresses but rather confidential addresses. Amounts and asset type (in the case of lbtc vs tokens) are hidden on chain but you still have address reuse issue for fixed donation addresses.

Combined with confidential transactions it may be the easiest way to privately accept bitcoin donations. Just post a pgp signed liquid stealth address.

Main hurdle is private conversion between btc and lbtc. Current options seem very limited: custodial risk & timing analysis.

Looks like @blockstream added stealth address support to liquid but I haven't been able to find any public discussion on it anywhere?

Here is the paper on a previously proposed bitcoin implementation of stealth addresses from @peterktodd:

mempools did not fully clear this weekend...

The travel rule will require invasive information sharing between companies for transactions greater than $250.

The travel rule is extremely dangerous for users. Any company that chooses to comply without pushing back against regulators is part of the problem. It is that simple.

if it happens this is the guy to blame, not the bullish RHR https://t.co/YNoWrIcmuh

me: daily auto stack is the way to go

also me:

When I was a young bitcoiner, a no KYC bitcoin ATM in every airport and shop was the dream.

The reality is this will never happen and is a perfect example of why bitcoin is so important in the first place.

We will skip the step and make sats the standard one person at a time. https://t.co/I5GrLSl7kF

pour one out for the sats we lost along the way https://t.co/L7o6PSY7Ik

Paypal isn't making a bitcoin play or "crypto" play.

They are making an investments play. Don't expect them to add btc withdrawals anytime soon. Expect them to start adding stocks next.

Investments are easy rev compared to highly competitive no/low fee "p2p" money transfers.

lol I avoided twitter for the last three days because jinxes are science, you are welcome

just like forbes, stackers can ignore dec '17 and mar '20

79 sats for a penny.

7900 sats for a dollar.

This should not surprise anyone. Easy mode from both a compliance and security perspective and will become the industry norm within a few years. https://t.co/OagJup2elX

The same governments currently pushing for an encryption ban were caught conducting mass surveillance on every single person worldwide - including their own citizens - and nobody went to jail.

Ignoring the hard truths while incessantly repeating easily digestible one liners that absolve you of personal responsibility is bitcoin twitter on easy mode.

I respect you too much to pull that shit on you.

Bitcoin provides a direct incentive to practice personal responsibility.

You do not have to participate but that is on you.
