I did my own investigation because I obviously don't trust them.
What I found is that the external dependency of the firmware with the critical vulnerability hidden in it was written by CoinKite's CTO @DocHex pretending to be someone else.

(1/8) Why the world needs sound capital, a thread:
Every day we rely on corner coffee shops, family farms, freight companies, and the tradespeople who keep society running. These businesses were built by founders who took risks and devoted decades to them. 🍊

I am writing from FPC Morgantown prison in West Virginia. It has been about 5 months since I first surrendered myself in December, and I will be honest, the prospect of a Presidential pardon is very low. There was some hope during the Bitcoin 2026 conference, but that has now come and gone, and one must come to terms with the fact that I am simply a federal prisoner without money, power, or influence, and I will serve my full sentence. It will be years before I can even attempt to rebuild my life. Which is why I am now writing this appeal to you all now. Things are dire and we need your help.
Lauren and I need your help desperately. More than ever before. We have over $2 Million of debt due to legal fees. We have a $250k fine the judge levied against us. Every day I get letters and calls from anxious lawyers looking to be paid. Or the DOJ demanding I start making payments on my fine. Perhaps it was denial or delusion, but I had hoped to do what I have always done and dig myself out of this hole myself - but with the reality of serving a full sentence that is not possible. I hate to ask for your help in this way but we are entirely out of options. We need to pay off these legal bills and other debts accrued attempting to defend myself. We desperately need your help. Now.
For 10 years Bill and I built and published open source code and tools for Bitcoin users. Those same tools and code are what the government says were criminal. The tools and code still exist, they are out there right now and always will be. The creators however are locked away in Federal prison. The creators are the ones whose lives have been decimated. The creators are the ones who have been financially wiped out. The creators are the ones who desperately need you now. Please donate whatever you can to bc1qtjjcvn98wh7dfd55m8kxhjcfexanttwt8gtan8 . We have to get this albatross from around our neck.
Samourai had well over 100,000 users. These users pushed over 2 billion dollars through our open source tools. We need those users and any bitcoiner who appreciates the work that we put into this industry for over a decade to help us now. Please donate whatever you can to bc1qtjjcvn98wh7dfd55m8kxhjcfexanttwt8gtan8 right now.
If you require a private address please DM my wife @leamuirleyn and she will provide one. Please do not delay. Time is of the essence. Please help us.

Canada Has Everything. So Why Is It Struggling?
AI, inflation, and debt are putting pressure on small businesses everywhere. But in Canada, the contradiction runs deeper.
Imagine a country with vast oil, natural gas, uranium, and critical minerals 🛢️⚛️⛏️
Abundant farmland and fresh water 🌾 💧
Sitting next to the world’s most powerful economy 🇺🇸
With a currency that should make exports more competitive 💱
And yet,
Housing is becoming unaffordable 🏠⬆️
Food costs keep rising 🛒
Deficits are growing 📉
And imports still outpace exports 🌍⚖️
In this clip, Canadian business owner @mcgrattts captures the paradox perfectly:
We have the inputs for growth… but not the outcomes.
Having resources isn’t enough, what matters is how capital is allocated, how incentives are structured, and whether the system actually allows those advantages to translate into real prosperity.
🎥 Watch the full interview, this might change how you think about economic “wealth” and what actually drives it.

AI, inflation, and debt are putting real pressure on small businesses today.
Margins are tighter. Costs are rising. The rules keep changing.
So what does success actually look like in this environment?
In this clip, Sean McGrattan, (business owner and Bitcoiner) shares his perspective.
🔶 Competing in the free market means constantly creating value
🔶 Building a business is important, but keeping it healthy matters more
🔶 #Bitcoin introduces a longer-term mindset and clearer priorities
🔶 Family, health, and time are important part of the equation, not afterthoughts
When the external environment gets harder, your internal framework matters even more. And how you think about money can shape how you run your business...and your life.
🎥 Watch the full interview to see how entrepreneurs are navigating AI, inflation, and debt, without losing what matters most.

🧵 Technology is forcing us to fundamentally rethink our economic assumptions. The very nature of technological progress is deflationary, yet our economic systems are built to resist this force. Let's explore why this matters.👇

17 years after the white paper, the Bitcoin network is still operational and more resilient than ever. Bitcoin never shuts down.
@SenateDems could learn something from that.
