oh might def not be latest at this point lol 😂
i really like his discussion of the branchial space (what he calls the quantum mechanics part of reality); branches world vs matter world is such a nice analogy imo
pretty sure this is what led wolfram to his hypergraph theory of everything 😂 have you seen his latest blogpost on it?
not that i know of 🤷
*mutiny did build a LN->off-chain stacking wallet, but with e-cash primitives instead (fedimints)
Aqua wallet's "pay me in lightning, and i'll hold it in liquid" plus the ability to have a usd-t balance is exactly the thing i was trying to talk the mutiny wallet team into building last fall lol
(they did it, but on top of e-cash, not bulletproofs)
i am *so* thrilled they launched the "receive in lightning/stack in liquid" feature!! really interested to see how it works
SO EXCITED ABOUT THE ONLINE BASE58 CLASS DROP COMING SOON, APOLOGIES IF I HAVENT SENT YOU A THING I OWE YOU YET
legit feel that one of the craziest and most bullish things about bitcoin is that it's a community that advocates/advertises for itself
there's no central organization of bitcoin messaging that sells you on bitcoin
it's bitcoiners getting the word out

awesome. thank you for the sanity check!
loved this detail wrt compressed keys 
im hoping to launch the nostr:npub1vmpf90hq56wzyxht6teg3llpa74rzcepw9suj5unxl3tph24zd4qgtxhm7 onlineclass with an *awesome* intro to elliptic curves plus sigs on bitcoin next week!!
fun fact: the “1” in secp256k1 denotes the number of subgroups for the curve (eg there aren’t any)
subgroups massively undermine the security of a crypto system!! (you avoid them by picking a prime as your field) nostr:note1yr9tzxprw44k740phrnl6ye52k765zddgyq8gtduddq8g9j0zx4qeytz9h
ok wow this article is shockingly close to what i came up with for the elliptic curve portion of the soon to be released base58 part 2 basics class ❤️ (also confirms my understanding of the subgroups + secp256k1 🙌)
ooh. can i fact check myself really fast? im working on my very short intro to elliptic curves for base58, and tell people in the video that the h=1 in the secp paper means exactly this: that there are no “subgroups” for the G group (i think i call them cycles). is that a correct explanation?
i tell people things because it’s fun to see what comes next 🍿
i think technically it’s “chief explaining officer” but i do really prefer “head of instruction”
education as a goal is really off-putting to me; all i care about is “do you now understand what’s going on well enough to do or say something interesting”
