Having second thoughts now. Curious to hear what you and others have to say.
Over my head, but thought I'd throw in my two sats anyway :) I'd go with the former since it seems more "mutual"
Deliberate obfuscation? Seems like a share price that is factor of ten representation of the bitcoin price shouldn't be that hard. 100,000 sats/share?
Checked on github. It doesn't look like Accrescent or AppVerifier can be verified with gpg. I don't have apksigner. How does one obtain that? gpg is fairly available. I use it while booted in Tails. I wish developers would continue to use it as a verification option. I was able to verify Obtainium with gpg. Sorry for so many questions.
Who is Accrescent? Is Logan Magee the main person? Are they public? What does the name mean? Are they trying to be a better F-Droid? I wonder if they've considered working with Obtainium. New to Graphene. Currently I'm verifying with gpg on my computer when possible. This is all a bit complicated/tedious. The price one needs to pay? God help the normies.
Probably an unnecessary question, but does selecting Lockdown have the same effect as Power off & Restart when it comes to putting the device in an at rest state?
Commissioner Pierce is the G.O.A.T.
"Although this is a time for reflection, it is also a time for celebration. I am not celebrating bitcoin or bitcoin-related products; what one regulator thinks about bitcoin is irrelevant. I am celebrating the right of American investors to express their thoughts on bitcoin by buying and selling spot bitcoin ETPs. And I am celebrating the perseverance of market participants in trying to bring to market a product they think investors want. I commend applicants’ decade-long persistence in the face of the Commission’s obstruction."

Good cop?
I thought Global X was on the list too. Does anyone know why they didn't get approved?
11? Who's missing?
Excellent article by Eric Lombrozo (first of his writing in a long time) about the inherent difficulty of upgrading bitcoin.

Thank you for sharing. I respect his opinion. But right now, while not as extreme as nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m , I lean more to his side of the spectrum. Expressed well on nostr:npub1r8l06leee9kjlam0slmky7h8j9zme9ca32erypgqtyu6t2gnhshs3jx5dk recently.
I agree that it is important to understand where yields comes from. But if one holds a stable USD balance, I believe it possible for it to accrue interest/yield from the counter party on the other side with a bitcoin balance. I'd prefer an eventual mechanism like discreet log contracts (#DLC) or some derivative contract that is not dependent on a company like Tether. I'm hopeful for work that organizations like #10101 (10101.finance) are doing.

Using #SideSwap (sideswap.io) as an example, they charge a 0.1% fee to peg in from & peg out to the main chain. They provide a swap market for things like liquid tether, and along with this an instant swap service where they take the other side for ~0.75% spread. These fees likely provide proper incentive. Transaction fees currently seem insignificant in comparison.
I'm looking forward to learning about & appreciate #Mutiny Wallet's hard work to integrate #fedimints. But also appreciate #Blockstream's great work with liquid and the use cases it fills now. I really hope Fedi & Mutiny teams take advantage when appropriate of the knowledge, technology, & research Blockstream has provided with liquid.
Assuming scenario B occurs to the same extent as scenario A (I don't believe it has... yet.), there is no difference. This type of attack seems plausible, but are there reasons it would not be feasible/likely? However, should it occur, is there a defense against this attack that does not rely on miners making a financial sacrifice? I'm afraid that defense will not be sufficient.
One could also say it excluded 1400 transactions that were willing to pay a higher fee than the 1400 that were included.
Good words. Thank you for all you do! Strike is a bridge between fiat scam world & bitcoin freedom world. We need bridges such as strike that do the best they can. If one gets to the point where they are willing & able to utilize bitcoin without that bridge, then move on. Strike is a great tool that I rarely need anymore, but I'm grateful to have it available.
Weening myself off closed, proprietary software. Apple is my final boss. I no longer trust what cannot be verified.
