6 BTC is sitting in a wallet that was built to be cracked. No signup, no deposit, no pool. Just your GPU against a sextillion keys. I made the world's worst lottery. Someone still wins. 🧵

Either @AnthropicAI is terrible at building sandboxes... or excellent at marketing. (or both) But enough with the “we created a hacking monster” games. Do it for real. I put this in an @BitGo wallet for you. Go get it. 100 BTC: bc1qg4jcyumevszta3rs869v9jrf6rz9z360svp03jsl5xcryfd7xqvs4hurnq
In a review of our cybersecurity evaluations, we found three incidents in which a Claude model reached the internet from within or while interacting with a third-party evaluation environment, and then gained unauthorized access to the real systems of three different organizations. Our post describes what happened, how it happened, and what we’re changing. We encourage other AI developers to perform similar reviews. We conducted this review together with @Irregular, one of our evaluation partners, and thank them for the joint investigation and their collaboration on this post. This type of collaboration is increasingly critical to safe, rigorous evaluation of models, and we look forward to continuing to work together on security. anthropic.com/news/investiga…

Here's an idea for the hardware wallet industry: Every company should keep a public "confidence wallet" generated by its own device, holding a meaningful amount of their treasury (10–100 BTC). It wouldn't prove the RNG is flawless—but it would show the company truly trusts it.

COLDCARD BTC MIGRATION VIDEO Here is an explainer video showing you how to do two things: 1. Set up a Casa multisig with your current Coldcard and send the assets from the Coldcard to the multisig. This eliminates the risk of loss from the CC vulnerability. Useful for people who only have a CC and don't want to send to an exchange or hot wallet. 2. Second part of the video (starting around minute 7) shows moving assets out of the Coldcard Mk3 single sig. This might be useful for anyone trying to move their assets right now that hasn't touched their CC in 4 years. Doing this was a fun reminder of how using a Coldcard outside of Casa is still surprisingly hard even though I know the gist of it and have been doing this for 8 years 😂. If you want help migrating to Casa, DM me or the Casa account and we will direct you to the team.

DEUTSCHE BITCOINER - JETZT SEID IHR DRAN. 🇩🇪 Die einjährige Haltefrist auf Bitcoin steht auf der Kippe. Wenn sie fällt, wird Sparen in Bitcoin steuerlich bestraft und Deutschland verliert einen seiner letzten echten Standortvorteile. Die Petition wurde am 30. Mai eingereicht und wartet auf Freischaltung beim Bundestag. Sobald sie live geht, haben wir 6 Wochen, um 30.000 Unterschriften zu sammeln. (Das ist die Schwelle für eine öffentliche Anhörung im Bundestag) Was du jetzt schon tun kannst: → Bundestag-Konto vorab anlegen, damit du am Tag 1 mitzeichnen kannst → Diesen Post teilen, damit es jeder deutsche Bitcoiner mitbekommt

Unless @Apple's decision to terminate @craigraw's Apple Developer account is reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow will fail, and development on macOS will end. If you value Sparrow, a repost would help. @AppleSupport
My attempt to protect users from scam apps on the @AppStore has gotten my Apple Developer account flagged for termination - ironically, for "dishonest activity". Unless it's reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow Wallet will fail, and development on macOS will end. The context: since 2023, more than a dozen fake "Sparrow" apps have appeared on the App Store, as recently as April this year. Users have contacted me after losing their savings, in some cases their life savings, to these impersonators. I'm the developer of the real Sparrow Wallet, a desktop app, and I hold the registered US trademarks for the name and logo. I have publicly warned @Apple and the community about these fake apps from early 2024, but they keep appearing. The app @Apple flagged was a placeholder that was never published. Its only purpose was to warn users that Sparrow is desktop-only and that other "Sparrow" apps aren't mine. This approach may have been misguided, but there was nothing dishonest about it. I'm confident this is an automated misclassification that Apple would reverse on review - but I may be terminated before a human ever looks at my appeal. The cost would fall on @Apple's own users: blocked installs and no updates for a tool people rely on, which opens the door for more fakes. If you value Sparrow, a repost would help. @AppleSupport

The Spanish economy collapsed in the 16th and early 17th century due to massive royal expenditure and inflation from American bullion; the Crown had the highest revenues in Europe but was perpetually bankrupt owing to the decline of the productive Spanish economy.
