Matt, on the KYC front, if you move out of your country, your bitcoin becomes KYC free.

Thoughts on that ?

I'm listening to RHR right now

Well... Try to sell it and then re-enter the country. See if it stayed KYC free.

I think it's pretty safe to assume that at least the G-7 will share the KYC data. Especially as soon as they start tying some enforcement actions to it. (State) Criminals from other countries will find their ways to access the data as well.

So let's rather stick with the notion that you can never delete the KYC record, no matter what you do. You can obfuscate the future movements of the coin, but you'll keep wearing the target on your back until you change your identity.

Good Bitcoin thoughts at the end.

Who can explain me this? #asknostr

He argues that passphrases are flawed due to their 2-2 setup, posing a risk of losing funds if one part is lost. Nevertheless, the same vulnerability exists for SeedXOR (2-2, 3-3, …). I don’t see any downside as long as the passphrase has a 256 bit entropy. Multiple backups are essential for both solutions.

Lopp on Passphrase backup:

β€žThis gives you a security model that's the same as a 2 of 2 multisig setup. Do you know why 2 of 2 multisig isn't popular? Because it has 2 single points of failure - if you lose either part, you're screwed. I've seen quite a few people over the years get locked out of their funds because they forgot or lost the passphrase that accompanied their seed phrase.β€œ

Lopp on SeedXOR backup:

β€žSeed XOR is, in my opinion, a superior way to achieve the properties that folks try to get with a "25th word passphrase" or via naive seed splitting, while decreasing the complexity and improving plausible deniability. Note that this is essentially an N of N (2-of-2 / 3-of-3 / etc) split backup, so you're going to want multiple sets of XOR'd backups to ensure that losing a single plate doesn't cause catastrophic loss.β€œ

Good points. They are pretty similar in effect.

I'd argue that plausible deniability is little better since each XOR part looks like a seed. And that it might also imply more care from the holder when storing than just a (shorter) passphrase.

I agree passphrase is easier to understood and to use. And the security is the same IF treated well. But it's a big if.

I don't recall seeing any actual economics there for as far as I can remember. On the other hand, lot of anti-economics nonsense, normative judgment and politics.

Wasn't he supposed to be constrained by the lack of power in the congress?

So how is it; what powers does the president have there and how much support he gets in the congress?
