We are considering selling our small off-grid cottage in central #France. The property is located in the #LaCreuse department, #Limousin region, in a quiet hamlet on the edge of a forest.

The house sits on a large 2,265 sqm parcel (approx. 0.56 acres) which includes:

–A small courtyard in front of the house

–Garden area

–A field

–A large forested area

The stone house has an area of approx. 68 m² with a fully rebuilt roof. All structural woodwork was replaced, except for the original 100-year-old oak beams (still in excellent condition). The beams were treated against termites and borers, and the roof was finished with premium Terreal terra cotta tiles (installed 2011–2012). Additional upgrades include Kingspan structural foam insulation in roof, mains water connection, a new entry door, and three new wooden cave doors.

The property is currently off-grid, powered by a 1,040 W solar installation (4× BenQ 260 W panels, 3 kVA 48 V hybrid inverter, 400 Ah 48 V GEL battery bank, aluminum rail mounting system). Everything you need to live comfortably off-grid.

Please note: there is no septic system. There is currently composting toilet system installed. If desired, a conventional septic system would need to be installed by the new owner. Heat system currently installed is a 9.5kW Franco Belge wood burning stove in green enamel.

💰 Asking price: 0.25 BTC (25M sats) — negotiable for the right buyer!

Nous envisageons de vendre notre petite maison indépendante dans le centre de la #France. La propriété est située dans le département de #LaCreuse, région #Limousin, dans un hameau calme en bordure de forêt.

La maison est située sur un grand terrain de 2 265 m² (22 a 65 ca) comprenant :

– Une petite cour devant la maison

– Un jardin

– Un champ

– Un grand espace boisé

La maison en pierre a une superficie d'environ 68 m² avec une toiture entièrement refaite. Toutes les charpentes ont été remplacées, à l'exception des poutres en chêne centenaires d'origine (en excellent état). Les poutres ont été traitées contre les termites et les foreurs, et le toit a été recouvert de tuiles en terre cuite Terreal de première qualité (installées en 2011-2012). Les améliorations supplémentaires comprennent l'isolation en mousse structurelle Kingspan dans le toit, le raccordement à l'eau du réseau, une nouvelle porte d'entrée et trois nouvelles portes de cave en bois.

La propriété est actuellement hors réseau et alimentée par une installation solaire de 1 040 W (4 panneaux BenQ 260 W, un onduleur hybride 3 kVA 48 V, un parc de batteries GEL 400 Ah 48 V et un système de montage sur rail en aluminium). Tout le nécessaire pour vivre confortablement hors réseau.

Attention : il n’y a pas de fosse septique. Un système de toilettes sèches est actuellement installé. Si désiré, un système septique conventionnel devra être installé par le nouveau propriétaire. Le chauffage est assuré par un poêle à bois Franco-Belge 9,5 kW émaillé vert.

💰 Prix demandé : 0,25 BTC (25 millions de sats) — négociable pour le bon acquéreur !

🔟 ETHereal years

🍰 Ethereum turns 10 today. Let’s celebrate #Vitalik the blockchain — and ourselves. Here are 10 tasty facts about the ‘silver’ of decentralization:

2015 — Ethereum launches and rewrites the rulebook for good.

Smart contracts — code that kicked lawyers out of the room. Or at least the notaries.

$0.75 per ETH — that’s what it cost on its first birthday. Pain or nostalgia?

$4 650+ per ETH — that was the all-time high. And right now? ETH is rising again.

The Merge (2022) — goodbye mining, hello Proof-of-Stake. Less carbon, more Web3 power.

Burn, baby, burn — part of every gas fee now disappears forever. $ETH is deflationary.

The NFT era — from pixel art to billion-dollar monkey business — it all started here.

DeFi — exchanges, loans, and savings, no banks or suits required.

DAOs — leaderless organizations where votes = tokens.

Layer 2 — faster transactions, cheaper fees, better vibes.

And this is just the beginning. The party’s only getting started 🔟

🧁 Tonight we’re bringing out the celebration cake with ETH inside — everyone has a chance to win their own slice of Ethereum.

Stay tuned to be the first to know!

Leave a like to keep #Ethereum growing!

Nostr was mentioned on my favorite cryptography podcast today, Security, Cryptography, Whatever — they didn't spend a lot of time on it, but here are some highlights:

> It’s federated and it’s European. I bet it sucks.

> It’s some Ayahuasca inspired initiative from. From Messrs. Dorsey et al.

> Yeah, sure, it’s decentralized and federated, but like their proposal for encrypted end to end encrypted DMs was just bad by itself.

> When I reviewed this, my description of this was it looks almost exactly like Nebuchadnezzar [https://nebuchadnezzar-megolm.github.io/], which is like a fractal of things that could have gone wrong with like a complete ecosystem of like a secure messaging system. They found flaws in almost every component of that system and then tried to leverage them as far as they could.

You can read/listen here: https://securitycryptographywhatever.com/2025/07/29/vegas-baby/

They also mentioned a talk that's going to be delivered at blackhat on August 9th which sounds super interesting:

> In this session, we unveil the first comprehensive security study of Nostr and its popular client applications, demonstrating how subtle flaws in cryptographic design, event verification, and link previews allow an attacker to forge "encrypted" direct messages (DMs), impersonate user profiles, and even leak the confidential message from "encrypted" DMs.

Here's the link to the agenda entry for the talk: https://www.blackhat.com/us-25/briefings/schedule/#not-sealed-practical-attacks-on-nostr-a-decentralized-censorship-resistant-protocol-45726

I'm looking forward to learning how we've screwed up — there aren't a lot of cryptographers here, and I know that open protocols make security even harder to maintain. Maybe we've screwed up irretrievably, but I'd rather know now than later.

Looks great! Thanks
