Been secretly enjoying RBF and the new address and amount formats for what feels like an eternity 😅

Now it’s live for all you lovely Envoy users out there on all platforms 🫡

Done, added a bunch more!

Thanks, CK 🤝

That was a great idea! I went through his follows manually and was able to get a bunch that I know I want to follow from there.

Ah maybe I followed on X? I remember following you somewhere 😅

Yup, never had any issues.

Mostly IVPN.

Remind me, is splicing live or a WIP?

So strange, my main account has only ever been used behind a VPN and I’ve never had issues.

Wonder what the trigger is for yours?

There is no second best when it comes to a full LN node in your pocket 🔥

There is really no reason to believe that Signal itself was broken/breached.

Far more likely his device was pwnd and messages read via screen recording or some other method.

Very, best wild game I’ve had TBH!

Who do I need to follow here? My “Latest” feed is a bit dead a lot of the time.

Help me fix it 🫂

Yuck… odd it let me buy with only providing an email alias.

Means surely there will be shotgun KYC later

Uhh how the hell does nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg do no-KYC purchases of Bitcoin?

Is it KYC-lite or something? Can’t find any info on it.

CANNOT WAIT to do my first in-person workshop teaching Bitcoin self-custody from scratch alongside nostr:npub15c88nc8d44gsp4658dnfu5fahswzzu8gaxm5lkuwjud068swdqfspxssvx.

If you're in NYC, get your tickets ASAP before it's full!

Just used the latest Phoenix Wallet and Passport releases to top up my Lightning wallet from Taproot to Taproot 🔥

So glad to see the promise of Taproot FINALLY starting to pay off in the wild with better privacy and lower fees.

HUGE release just dropped 🤯

may god be with your sats 🫡

this was a CC, they allow you to use only dice rolls for entropy, and still don't enforce minimum rolls on Mk3 or older Mk4 firmware.

you can even still so a single dice roll for a temp seed.

Stop trying to use dice-rolled seeds unless you're an expert ❌

Just had yet another person (hard to count the total now) reach out about a low-entropy seed they generated and were allowed to import into a certain hardware wallet. A lot of the blame for these lost funds falls on influencers who shill users on overly-complex security setups without properly explaining the massive risks and tradeoffs associated for the average user.

What happened:

Less than 10min after funds were sent to what they thought was secure storage, they were swept to an attackers address.

They used <10 dice rolls, meaning the private key had <25bits of entropy when the minimum for strong security is 50 dice rolls (128 bits of entropy). Wallets should not allow a user to import a seed that they know is completely insecure.

Staying safe:

As I have said many times, if you don't know the ins and outs of dice rolls, entropy, verification of the resulting seed offline, etc. please do not use dice rolls alone for seed generation. 99.99999% of users are better off allowing good, multi-source, open-source random number generation like we do on Passport.

To date I have heard of zero compromised seeds that were generated using on-board RNG due to entropy issues, while there are countless examples of users losing funds due to improper dice rolls.

Stay safe out there, folks.

Sent, sorry it took so long!
