I havent been following the relay ecosystem lately. Whats the best caching relay?
with apollo shutting down, I think reddit is officially dead to me now. It was mostly dead, but this is the final nail
You know… scammers who rugpull are probably pretty hardcore about self custody.
Hold your own coins or someone else will!
ChatGPT is a total scam. I asked it for the discrete log of a curve point and it couldnt even figure that out
If Ark works, you wont have to know how it works.
Dont toy with my emotions like that
Its kind of bananas what Nintendo can do with what is essentially 7 year old phone hardware
Oh wow #[0] is on nostr
anyone here actually using I2P? If so, what are you using it for? How are you finding it?
Apple Vision Pro has iris scanning. Wonder if worldcoin will do an app

I read this as “still love testnet” and i was like “ugh. Why” nostr:note1mkmanrsw7ayu9auyj8klpnhqp0r58yt5gkmuvrpm0589yqk20n6s9vfzw2
Voltage, i love you guys and im rooting for you everyday.
Rest of Bitcoin twitter/nostr: a customer success blogpost is not the same thing as a partnership announcement. Don’t hype up non-events. It only leads to disappointment.
The first term of the polynomial is the x^0 coefficient, which is also the y-intercept :-)
For example, say your secret is the number 5 and you want to have a 2/3 split. You randomly generate a polynomial. Lets say its y = 5 + 3x. Then you make three shares where each share is a point (x,y) so if you want to use 1,2,3 for the x coordinates youd have (1,8), (2,11), (3,14). If you take two of those points, maybe the 1 and 3 points and interpolate a line through them, it’ll intercept the y axis at 5, which is what you get if you set x to 0 in y=5+3x.
As jesse said, this generalizes upwards: for a t-of-n split, you pick a polynomial of degree t-1, and then you pick n points on the curve.
The DKG used in frost is kind of that in reverse: everyone makes their own polynomial and then passes around coefficients to pick a secret that none of them know.
