Peter Schiff posted a bitcoin address on X yesterday.
A cursory inspection of this address could give the impression that Peter has a large amount of bitcoin, because this address has been an input in some large consolidations. Actually he posted his coinbase deposit address, and the subsequent spends from this address are just coinbase managing their utxo set - the large outputs are not his!
So be warned, posting an exchange deposit address publicly in this way exposes you to the risk that a mistaken thief thinks you have much more bitcoin than you actually do.
Remember that transaction where someone burned 83.5 BTC in fees.
The person claiming to have been hacked (who signed a proof) says they have been refunded
Well that’s a start I guess
What is the best long form criticism or caution regarding the strategic bitcoin reserve?
Is there a nostr client for mobile (android and iOS) with an integrated self custodial lightning wallet?
THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ONLY FANS GIRL AND A BITCOIN BLUE CHECK IS THE OF GIRL HAS MORE COIN.
can confirm
* correction
taproot 2of3 keypath is 59 vB cheaper (54%) than 2of3 segwit
taproot 2of3 scriptpath is 34 vB cheaper (31%) than 2of3 segwit
Got chance earlier today to test out the nostr:npub1cvqlzvmjercdn0ypsmv8f7j9lge6ahsnueh5rparh53wuswftv4q49yjt3 Taproot Group Wallet feature with my pal nostr:npub18h0w55nsp839ezxnggf00jd2xc6yl0ht62mf5p8wwllu8s80wdcs83ws8m.
Have to say I am very impressed with the ease of use. Question for nostr:npub1cvqlzvmjercdn0ypsmv8f7j9lge6ahsnueh5rparh53wuswftv4q49yjt3, is the comms still using Matrix?
Very nice user experience and way cheaper than a 2of3 Segwit!
For 1in1out tx, the the 2of3 Taproot keypath spend is only 99vB (59% cheaper than 2of3 Segwit) and the scriptpath spend is 124.25 (34% cheaper than 2of3 segwit)
Amazingly the 2of3 taproot keypath spend is even cheaper than singlesig Segwit spend (10% lower)
TestFlight for iOS available.

Yep, there are a few new projects which take the same approach as inscriptions for adding large amounts of data via the witness - if they take off it could be back to a higher growth rate, but my guess is that green and blue are reasonable lower and upper bounds of what I expect
Yeah consolidating has privacy tradeoffs. Many other ways to use blockspace, maybe you are making lightning channels, moving to multisig, or just making regular on chain payments with lower fees than lightning (for large spends)!
Green, Blue or Red? 
When life gives you uncontested blockspace, make transactions
Thanks for your support
New research report just dropped.
Q/ Wait how is the Mempool now 22 blocks deep!!?
A/ Well this one address (
Possibly “CoinCola” from a quick search) is associated with 926+ chunky consolidation transactions which are now in the mempool. Nature is healing.
