Wild how like 99% of people who self identify as Bitcoiner disagree with the one premise Bitcoin is actually built on

Tomorrow we present two solutions for secure data sharing without central databases, in Eindhoven. can a bank, a webshop, a parcel company and the police share fraud signals without pooling their data?

@NATO invited us to present our solution Friday. Their DIANA accelerator got thousands of proposals this year, @mintBlue_com made it through. The pitch: sensor data shared between allies without anyone handing it over.

This retard just asked chatgpt to roast BSV and it's like: yeah it's bad because it does everything successfully instead of limiting throughput and features?
BSV is the most used and adopted blockchain. That may be true! However... BSV isn't a payment network. It's a filing cabinet. A blockchain-shaped hard drive where people stuff receipts, timestamps, and data nobody asked for — then call it "transactions" like that means something. Walk through BSV's on-chain activity and here's what you find: data dumps. On-chain social posts, game data, diaries. Immutable record-keeping. Digital art, music, full memories as ordinals. That's a database with delusions of grandeur. BSV's high volume is mostly non-financial data dumps. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is moving value. Real capital. Human economic energy encoded into a 21-million-unit monetary protocol that central banks lose sleep over. BSV boosted its OP_RETURN capacity to the stratosphere so developers could write cheap bulk data to the chain. Congratulations! You built the world's most ideologically confused Google Drive. High transaction volume means nothing when the transactions are spam in a suit. Oldest trick in the altcoin playbook: manufacture a number, point at the number, scream adoption. Volume without value is just noise. BSV is noise. Bitcoin (BTC) is signal.

In mintBlue, each action is placed in a signed, encrypted envelope, then anchored into a chained sequence of UTXOs so its order and integrity can be independently verified.

Every application action can be linked back through its delegation and transaction chain, providing a tamper-evident audit trail of who was authorised, what happened, and in which order.

AI cannot be conscious. The world is not a simulation. Socialism doesn’t work. All unprovable within the system. Therefore true.
Sir Roger Penrose, Nobel Prize winning physicist, explains Gödel's theorem in under 60 seconds, and why it puts a hard ceiling on AI:

Think about the inversion for a moment. I am the one who has been villainised for defending the individual—for insisting that Bitcoin must have a fixed protocol so that no developer, corporation, exchange or foundation can seize control of it. I put tens of millions of my own family’s money into that fight. I threw everything at building the technology, restoring the protocol and releasing the tools. I dealt with compromised systems, intrusions, litigation and years of organised public hostility. Then look at what stood against me. COPA was backed by interests connected to Meta, Jack Dorsey, Coinbase and some of the largest corporate players in the world—organisations collectively representing trillions of dollars in capital and influence. Yet many of you convinced yourselves that they represented the small individual, while I represented centralised control. Think about that. I argued for rules that even I could not change. They defended a system directed by a small group of developers and supported by exchanges, custodians and corporate infrastructure. I argued that anyone should be able to build, compete and accept payment. They supported restrictions that pushed ordinary users back towards middlemen. You were told that concentrated corporate power was decentralisation, while the person demanding a protocol beyond anyone’s control was the villain. If you genuinely care about the small individual, stop repeating the branding and examine the structure of power.

How retarded do you have to be to keep 1.6M cash in your wallet Think about it
$1.6 million dollars in Bitcoin was drained from my account on July 29th in the Cold Card wallet hack. My Bitcoin was in cold storage. My keys were on a ColdCard device kept in a safety deposit box that had never been connected to the internet. This part's nerdy, but here's what happened: Hackers discovered a vulnerability in the part of the hardware wallet code used to create seed phrases. This allowed them to use AI to brute force guessing seed phrases. I was at our cottage and heard about the hack today. "No way this affects me." I thought. I logged into Wasabi––software that lets me view my bitcoin wallets online. Right away I saw lines of red transaction–withdrawals–and I knew. From 9:36pm - 9:43pm on July 29th, every wallet I had had been emptied. 18.25245043 btc gone. That's just over $1.6 million dollars CAD. Perhaps the hardest part about this is that I did everything right. I never shared my seed phrase with anybody. My devices never touched the internet. Everything was kept in multiple safes and safety deposit boxes. None of it mattered. All because the hardware that created the seed phrase originally had one line in their code from 2021 that had a vulnerability. I'm filing a police report and a report with the Ontario Securities Commission. But I don't expect to recoup anything. A part of me is trying to make sense of what just happened. Or try to figure out a lesson in it. I'm struggling. $1.6 million is a staggering amount of money to have stolen. I guess all that I can think about right now is that I'm so damn happy that I'm an entrepreneur and that my earning potential is under my control. Mark my damn words. I'll recover.

@ClaudeDevs Only 116% of the 5 hour window to get things running. Might have a good 15 mins where I can get some work done before we're back to rate limits

Running 8 auto mode dev agents concurrently, honestly at the point where I can scale this up to maybe 50 or so

Definitely disagree. 4.8 is (slightly) superior, but you have to evolve with it. It's more honest. Less avoidant. And workflows are really cool Too bad they nerf the previous model to hype the next. The last week of a certain model before the nex is released, it's hardly usable
opus 4.5 > opus 4.6 > opus 4.8 > opus 4.7 what anthropic did after opus 4.5 should honestly be a case study in how to ruin momentum
