Pleasantly surprised at how small the venue was this time (Melkweg, Amsterdam). Small enough that he could shout at each indivual holding a phone camera to enjoy the show instead. So here's a random Youtube video:

Musk can easily arrange a court to order cease and desist, if reposting (semi?) public information in this manner is indeed illegal. He himself said that free speech limits should be decided by law rather platform bosses.
Morally speaking I think that as a general rule you shouldn't do this. There's lots of crazy folks out there where all they need is a little inspiration.
Of course with a decentralized system there's no way to stop an anon from picking up the baton.
No zaps on one side?
If you feel eager to do more homework: try building from source, download the Signet blockchain (src/qt/bitcoin-qt -signet) and get some coins from the faucet (there's script for that!).

My plan for Pizza Day Prague is to give a workshop for how to test and review a Bitcoin Core pull request (or really any other project).
Your homework if you use a Mac: download Xcode, otherwise we might break the wifi :-)
Your homework if you have a Windows machine: install Linux (dual boot if you're worried about withdrawal symptoms) or buy a Mac.

There was also a recent paper about a new clustering method that mentioned this case, with plenty of caveats.
It's worth reading the affidavit and ask yourself what additional data you'd want to see to be convinced one way or the other. If you could subpoena any exchange / hosting provider what would you ask? Tiny problem: this happened more than a decade ago, so some data and even entire companies are gone.

Just had a long conversation with the lawyers working on this case.
tl;dr: the US govt is using shoddy Chainalysis data to accuse some dude of running the bitcoinfog mixer. It's a bullshit claim supported by terrible evidence. Chainalysis has staked their reputation on this case; if these guys win against the US govt, it'll do enormous damage to Chainalysis as a business.
I gave them $100 (with lightning!). You should donate too. Lawyers deserve to get paid to fight important cases.
Breaking open the Chainalysis blackbox is very important, regardless of the outcome of this case. There are others out there facing similar computer-says-guilty charges. Sometimes the computer is right, but that's not how due process works.
Thanks!
No the payment worked fine. But receiving node has to publish a nostr event to confirm the zap.

Same here. You need some additional tooling / plugin usually for zaps to show up for others to see. E.g. BTC has a plugin for that.
