OPSEC FAILURE OF THE YEAR
How North Korea pulled off a $1.5 billion crypto heist—the biggest in history
Attack on Bybit didn't hack infrastructure or exploit smart contract code. So how did it work?

Stay Safe !
I've deleted my Twitter account. Some days after my username was made available for anyone to grab (contrary to what used to happen traditionally). Some unfunny imbecile grabbed it and is now running free there making retarded posts while still trying to put out a facade of legitimacy. This is all fine, I don't mind, it's ok.
What really bothers me is that all the old tweets from people who had mentioned "@fiatjaf" in all past discussions now link to this new fake profile. How can they not index the mentions by any form of unique account id, but only by username? And then they allow people to freely change usernames and cause all links to break -- and someone else takes the old username and now all the links point to the wrong place.
Is this nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m's broken code that no one had the time to fix in 20 years or what?
I get the technical side of it, but it’s frustrating when old posts get linked incorrectly.
One thing’s for sure—I’m not deleting my Twitter/X account over this. I’ll just remove the posts that need to go.
As of February 26, 2025, U.S. stock markets are experiencing mixed performance:
Dow Jones Industrial Average: Up by 0.37%, closing at 43,621.16.
S&P 500: Down by 0.47%, ending at 5,955.25.
Nasdaq Composite: Decreased by 1.35%, finishing at 19,026.39.
The technology sector, particularly high-growth stocks like Nvidia and Tesla, has faced notable declines. Nvidia's shares fell ahead of its anticipated earnings report, which is expected to provide insights into AI demand and the company's future outlook. #NVDA #TSLA
Investor sentiment has been dampened by a significant drop in consumer confidence, marking the steepest monthly decline since August 2021. This has raised concerns about potential economic impacts from current administrative policies.
In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin has experienced a sharp decline, falling below $90,000 for the first time since November. This downturn has affected crypto-related stocks and added to market volatility. #BTC
Investors are advised to exercise caution, especially with high-growth stocks, and to consider diversifying into defensive sectors.
Upcoming economic indicators and earnings reports, particularly from major tech companies, are expected to influence market trends in the near term.
Is it worth 6hrs of my life ? :) I trust @odell@primal.net so let's queue it :)
Is it normal I get many of those running my relay.
Hardcoded in the relay?
GOOD MORNING NOSTR.

Good morning ! Gray and cold here in #Sweden.
Dorsey: "Technology champions freedom."

Modern life requires constant permission for basic actions involving money, speech, and access to information. This permission is granted by governments and corporations, creating friction and limiting freedom.
Entities Controlling Permission: Three main entities control permission:
Governments: Hold a monopoly on violence and can seize property or restrict actions.
Corporations:Function as powerful citizens with reduced liability, controlling much of online interaction and prioritizing advertiser needs over user needs.
Self: Internalized societal pressures and fear of judgment (cancel culture) can limit actions and self-expression.
Permissionless technologies are crucial for activists, human rights advocates, scientists, and artists who often face censorship or surveillance. These technologies protect against government and corporate control.
Bitcoin solves the double-spending problem using a proof-of-work model, creating a decentralized, deflationary currency independent of governments and corporations. It offers increased financial freedom, especially for cross-border transactions.
Nostr is a decentralized social network where users own their data and identity using public and private keys, ensuring authenticity and preventing censorship.
The dominance of closed AI models by a few corporations raises concerns about manipulation and control. Open-source AI models are needed to ensure transparency and democratic access to artificial intelligence.
Three paths to adopting permissionless technologies are experimentation, reaction (to censorship or account closures), and proactive exploration. Mindfulness, minimizing digital footprint, and verifying information are key practices.
In an era of deepfakes and AI-generated content, verifying information through personal experience and intuition is crucial.
Primal.net is a Nostr client enabling micropayments and a shift away from advertising-based internet commerce.

Hi,
What is the source?
In a landscape of market volatility and geopolitical tensions, staying informed is your best strategy. Which is your best source ? #markets #nostr
Add content value or point out to content with value is the way to go I think. People don't care about "nice" system och idea but more "What's in it for me".

BYD has already produced its first solid-state cells
Chinese car and battery manufacturer BYD apparently already produced its first solid-state cells last year. The source for this is not an anonymous informant, but the company's Chief Technology Officer. However, BYD does not expect series production in the near future.

As of February 25, 2025, U.S. stock futures indicate a mixed opening,
This follows a recent period of market volatility, with technology stocks experiencing notable declines. Investors are closely monitoring upcoming earnings reports, particularly from Nvidia, which are expected to provide insights into the tech sector's trajectory.
Additionally, geopolitical developments, such as U.S. investment restrictions on China, have contributed to market fluctuations.
Hi, What generate attraction to #Nostr ? Funny spikes in the past.
Is it news related ?

Kör du med flera relays ? ( Vilket bra att göra)
Yes that good plan. I also think one Relay on the laptop can be good to have.
One question. What is the use case running Relay on the phone? #asknostr
Nej du behöver inte göra något men du kan kolla ifall du får connection problem mot relay eller ej
