The U.S. Federal Reserve is threatening to sue Bitcoin Magazine, alleging apparel that parodies its FedNow system is not protected speech, but copyright infringement.

This is like an onion article, right? There's no way 🤡🌎 has gotten this bad.🤮
Where's the best place to buy these precious metals?
₿itcoin = Math
#bitcoin

If I had to do it over, I would use a bitcoin seed phrase for a key using Get Alby or Current to get my nsec from a Bip85 child seed.
I talk less and less about #bitcoin on nostr because it feels like I'm preaching to the choir or telling a lion about the carnivore diet.
I find applied cryptography completely facinating. Nostr is awesome cryptography. PGP is really cool. I also love steganography, but bitcoin is the only one that takes away the power of the money printers.
This AI stuff is facinating.
Lmao facts. Id say Self-hosted vaultwarden or bust but not a lot of people are going to self-host. 😅
It's not that hard. Most people just DGAF.
Unscheduled as of yet (there’s only 3 of us including you haha) but keep the conversation hoi g with me and nostr:npub1gjd56m6gw0kr4hdpx5z74fvv4tsmzpgcdwj8s47qx6g2u6wt0vjsu6a0tp if you wanna plan something 🤝
Okay. Where did you want to hold it? I have a meetup account.
I asked Chat GPT to teach me how the Jefferson Wheel worked. Here is the answer it gave me.
"Certainly, I'd be happy to explain how the Jefferson Wheel, also known as the Jefferson Disk Cipher, works.
The Jefferson Wheel is a simple yet effective method of encrypting messages. It consists of multiple concentric disks, each with letters of the alphabet arranged in a random order. To use it, one must align the disks so that the letters on the outer and inner disks match up.
To encrypt a message, you set the disks to a particular starting position, and then for each letter in your message, you locate the plaintext letter on the outer disk and read off the corresponding ciphertext letter from the inner disk. This process is repeated for each letter in the message, creating the encrypted text.
To decrypt the message, the recipient needs a Jefferson Wheel set to the same starting position. They align their Wheel accordingly and reverse the process, finding the ciphertext letter on the inner disk to reveal the original plaintext letter on the outer disk.
The key to the Jefferson Wheel's security lies in the randomness of the letter arrangement on the disks, making it challenging for anyone without the correct starting position to decipher the message. It's a clever and historical example of a polyalphabetic substitution cipher, which makes it a significant contribution to the history of cryptography."
Blockstream.😂
Grubles had a great idea about using a liquid static address + boltz over TOR as a form of payment on a tangible object that's more private than on chain bitcoin.
I think I'll try it soon. I'll need to make a tutorial though.
Legacy luquid addresses like bitcoin addresses that start with 1.

I screw this up all the time. I want to be as economical with the bags because I'm a cheapskate Bitcoiner. So I make the bags too short. Then I can't close it or I can, but it leaks and breaks the seal. 😡
No, but that's a good one too.
Anyone have the link to that awesome nostr video I saw yesterday?
I think it was made by JeffG, but I'm not 100% sure.

Your math is wrong. According to the government, this is only 3.6%. It's an easy mistake to make.
Sometimes I forget how much the government lies too.
