El símil del cubo de Rubik me está ayudando mucho a explicar el PoW y su validación por los nodos. Aunque resolverlo al azar implicaría probar quintillones de posibilidades, nuestro cerebro sólo necesita mirarlo una milésima de segundo para comprobar que el resultado es correcto

Soy nuevo y quiero crear una wallet con mi Bitbox que me acabo de comprar. Conecto el dispositivo y sigo los pasos en Bitbox App. Pulso en crear billetera directamente. Me da miedo pulsar en opciones avanzadas ya que soy nuevo en esto.

21 de septiembre: día de los Cypherpunks y bajada a la tierra de @cristocurrensi_ Muchas cosas que celebrar hoy 👹🔥

El 21 de septiembre de 1992 se abrió la lista Cypherpunks y se envió el primer correo a través de su remailer. Me parecía el día más adecuado para resucitar a Cristo Currensi. Quien quiera hacer peer que lo siga en su nuevo perfil 👇

i’m afraid of KYC and you should be too. KYC is a risk to your personal safety. collecting personal information in the age of cyber security breaches everywhere is extremely irresponsible. and it’s not going to get any better any time soon. our laws shouldn’t require institutions to KYC, they should prevent them from doing so. institutions that leak KYC information or fail to defend it from hackers should be punished by the law for risking their user’s safety.

There is currently a phishing email going around that's pretending to come from us. Please do not follow the instructions in the email! We are currently investigating.

The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.

my understanding is that blockstream only thought it was a lower severity consensus split bug, so they didn’t give it the attention it deserved (or do things like immediately halt the liquid network), and apparently the patch was also incorrect or insufficient, so when they pushed their ‘fix’ to github someone must have saw the commit and realized it was possible to mint L-BTC by abusing the cache collision using faulty cache keys and they somehow seeded the cache with legit transactions (which is why our liquid.network node rejected the bogus TX, our cache wasn’t seeded to accept them), and then they simply swapped that LBTC on sideswap for BTC because sideswap violated the official PAK “only allow peg-outs to cold storage” policy essentially letting anyone withdraw directly from the federation holdings

Esto es muy perspicaz. La historia de la informática es una historia de ir añadiendo capas de abstracción para faciltarnos el uso. Pero tiene tradeoffs: cuando están en juego los ahorros de tu vida, más te vale saber lo que estás haciendo. Aunque te cueste más esfuerzo.

Maybe Bitcoin self custody and coins lost go the same way

⚡️ LIGHTNING DEPOSITS ARE BACK AT FREEDOMIA.⚡️ A few weeks ago, we had to temporarily pause Lightning deposits after @Boltzhq suspended its swap services. Today, they’re fully operational again. 🧡 We rebuilt the infrastructure using @Breez_Tech, with Lightning payments routed through Spark / Orchestra and converted to USDC on Polygon.

We just released the Dixence security update. During our internal audits, we were able to discover and fix multiple security issues in the BitBox firmware. We recommend our users to update their BitBoxApp and device firmware through the BitBoxApp settings. blog.bitbox.swiss/en/bitbox-…
