Imagine if Bitcoin had been around 30 years ago and companies were bringing out multisig inheritance planning solutions on 3.25 inch floppy disks. You had 3 floppies, in 3 separate locations.

You died, a couple of weeks ago and now your solicitor and executor are trying to work out what to do with these ancient relics.

I think paper and pen or metal plate inheritance planning is more future proof. But as a short term solution (say 5 years), easy multisigs hardware products are going to help the adoption of Bitcoin.

If I’m a chef and I’ve invented a secret sauce everybody raves about, but I’m not prepared to sell it.

I invite you into my home, show you how to make it.

You go away, copy the sauce and sell it to become rich.

Have you stolen anything from me?

Hey, don't shoot the messenger πŸ˜‚

It's all BS over there.

Hashing your key is not the same as sending it to somebody else πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚

When you don't know something, it's easy to not know a lot more as well.

Welcome

If you'd like some help about this weird protocol we call NOSTR I wrote some guides here:

https://habla.news/u/mhardcastle@nostrplebs.com

I would start with this one here for some basic concepts:

If you have questions, the tagΒ #asknostrΒ is a good place to start.

If you want to write a brief hello, use theΒ #introductionsΒ hashtag to allow people to find and welcome you.

Enjoy freedom speech and money.

Fun fact, Spandau Prison, from which Spandau Ballet were named, held Rudolf Hess until his death in 1987.

Our neighbour, General Robert Mezies, was one of the surgeons who performed the autopsy on his body after his death.

Dried Porcini would be better, but there are no rules.

Dried porcini tend to intensify the flavour, but if you prefer a more delicate flavour, then fresh would be great.

What, did we have a conversation before?

Your words are familiar, but I can't remember the conversation.

Did we discuss Risotto?

If so, then Porcini are a good base, the dried ones which you then soak in boiling water for a half hour or so, then use the liquor to add flavour later.

Apart from that, any you fancy or that are in season.

I think you'll find the whitepaper uses British English spelling for words like "favour" and "grey".

Now that's brunoise at another level 🀩

I hate you.

You have virtue signalled your stupidity, while simultaneously boasting about the API you rewrote πŸ˜‚

We went from 1MB physical blocks to 1.5MB physical blocks.

Taproot compressed the data such that we have 4MB virtual (compressed) block sizes

You’re a genius.

Right, you’re in charge of the Core vs Knots debate now πŸ˜‚

You're fine πŸ«‚

I just don't have the answers to life the Universe and everything.

Yes a friend told me that once.

We don’t speak much anymore πŸ˜‚

No, I didn't ask that question, nor am I seeking to answer it.

In a complex argument it is always possible to derail a valid answer by changing the argument.

You just did that.

Your points are valid and you are raising them, but I am not, nor am I offering to answer them.

None of the above invalidates my point, which is still 100% true and correct.

Also, I sound like Jameson Lopp right now, which is disturbing me immensely πŸ˜‚

Yes it did answer the question.

It did answer it exactly and 100% and yes Ocean and DATUM are an answer.

Of course, by definition we don't want Ocean becoming a dominant mining pool, that would be very bad.

Slowly and with enormous difficulty.

The Core argument is that it's impossible and so we should mitigate spam and make it less destructive, which is a valid argument.

The Knots argument is it is possible to reduce by filtering, it is extremely unlikely that it can be eliminated, but we'll never know unless we try.

In terms of how we technically achieve this, this is a glimmer of hope:
