Bitcoin hedge wizard. Do not consult me unless as a last resort.

Sir, I steal memes. An honorable profession.

Engagement copypasta is a fucking block. Can we not do this horseshit on nostr?

The standard came out of Trezor, I believe, and they were not able to build a consortium of HWW companies to support it.

Incidentally, it's highly confusing to be an Uncle Jim, trying to help a family member make sense of their wallet, and they present what look like 3 20-word mnemonic keyphrases, but the software wallet is P2WPKH. Fam was lucky I even knew what Shamir was.

My issue with it is that you have to be aware of what devices and desktop wallets currently implement Shamir/SLIP39. The unfortunate thing about standards is that for them to be worth a damn, they not only have to be good, but they also have to be widely adopted, which SLIP39 is not.

Roll back the chain, Vitalik.

Have you ever set up a shamir's 2-of-3 single signature seed...or know someone who has? Is this method actually popular with-shitcoin wallets?

Roll back the chain, Vitalik. It is your destiny.

Toyota finds that the Tacoma is a better market fit for the US, so they manufacture it here and removed the Hilux from the American market. We get the Tacoma. Everyone else gets the Hilux.

This is so typical, it's hilarious. One employee learns to do the Bitcoin thing and then the bear market hits and the "Bitcoin phone" gets lost in a drawer somewhere. Ahhj, Eternal September.

Nobody realizes the importance of this question. Bitcoin Uncensored was and is the only bitcoin podcast you will ever need to listen to. nostr:nprofile1qqsttvnpjka059akcl97qyqt9yvwc0z7z6xwfaqrxl08dag89l8sffcpzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0ypsmlh and DeRose were the ONLY podcasters that I don't consider warmup acts for people waiting to get rich. Evert. Body. Else. Is. Just. Monetizing.

There are a limited set of conditions under which you should treat bitcoin as real. Like when you want to self-costody and secure it.

But, under no circumstances, should you look at your bitcoin as real when you are working a bullshit job; when you have 3 managers trying to convert their responsibility into your time; when you know that clearly identifying the problems is a one-way ticket to getting pilloried in an endless Hell of meetings designed to keep you quiet in the future.

When you are in Fiat World, it's best to see your bitcoin as fake. Not even worth selling. Not an escape from. The. Ceaseless. Soul-depleting. Stupidity of it all.

DONT FUCKING TOUCH IT RICH. DONT DO IT.

Every German politician is inhuman and literally constructed from garbage and used mopwater. They all think about children when they touch themselves.

Also, I love nostr.
