A public key string is shorter than a private key string, suggesting that there's some hashing that happens in the process.

Client side UI idea:

If you mutually follow each other, commenting on a note is free.

If you don't follow each other, you gotta zap for the comment to be seen.

This could be turned on and off in the client or viewed in a seperate tab.

Bam! No more spam. Bots get priced out.

It just dawned on me that we should be calculating the number of possible public keys (not private keys) when illustrating the chances to steal someone's bitcoin. (The whole 'single atom in the universe' thing)

Since there are far fewer possible public keys than there are private keys, there is obviously a less-than 1:1 ratio between them, and therefore multiple private keys could clash and produce the same public key - and therefore would be able to spend the bitcoin associated with its UTXO set.

Am I wrong?

There's no financial incentive, but can someone make a clone of reply guys and make it send encouraging, wholesome messages about Bitcoin everytime someone posts.

As bitcoiners, we have come to understand that shitcoins and scams will always be here. That's a biproduct of a free and open source system.

Reply guys are no different. They just have to be ignored.

They will likely fall into irrelevance.

Late night window shopping for some 'hardware'? 😉

bitcoin on an exchange is no different than money in a bank

If you haven't taken responsibility of your own money yet, what's your excuse?
