I had no idea. It can even run (proto) Doom. Wow
Wut? How? This is insane... And I love it.

Hey @nprofile…fele, we are up to 20 square vendors now accepting bitcoin. Measurable progress for spending bitcoin. How many did you onboard to BTCPayServer?
For those who will come to see this. Know not only the truth, but the undeniable fact that almost everything and everyone you know has little to no value in this “existence”.
tnx so much fo wordz @nprofile…kq6l ,
Practice / Break ur Head on it / Make Mistakes / Learn / Repeat !!!
watch lot of videos with craft , any #craft is planty for free on YT
this is how i lern , and mistakes lotzz of them , Break ur head again :)
Don't get me started on covenants
Would probably be too little too late, for years now they've astroturfed these things as self-custodial L2 / Lightning wallets to gain adoption and mindshare
If they came up with a mea culpa PR push saying they've been full of shit for years now, that'd be laudable, but would be the end of their businesses and isn't going to happen.
Since these things are far more custodial then Samourai or Tornado Cash were there's only 2 possible outcomes.
1) they get prosecuted as MSBs
or
2) the gov goes so soft on small-amount custodians they don't need to pretend anymore
That's the most charitable I can be with them, perhaps they aren't out to scam users, but the user was collateral damage as they try to scam the regulator.

Én szeretnék egy példányt!
Esse cara é um palhaço que não tem resposta.
Yes the issues go deeper the further you go... since these are billed as Lightning wallets (since its pointless to use them with chain deposits) the swaps ingress is entirely trusted place because the operator is the swap provider (prior owner colluding with itself)
There's no free lunch, no levers left to pull... Lightning that they claim to address issues with is emergent of real constraints. So these fake L2's scam and pretend they've created solutions, hoaxes to fool unsophisticated users / cryptophile idiots
Thank you for the explanation! Highly technical answer I need to digest and re read more than one time for sure.
Ark has the same "back up your proof every vtxo" requirement. And the same limitation: the moment you receive offchain vtxo(and proof), you can unilaterally exit, but it isn't exclusive either — a colluding previous owner + ASP could still double-spend your prior state.
What's better about Ark is the periodic batch round (an onchain tx). When you participate, your old VTXO gets forfeited, which kills the stale state a prior owner could've exited with — so exclusivity is restored and only you, the latest owner, hold full ownership.
And the batch settlement is O(1) onchain regardless of participant count — thousands of participants still settle into a single shared Taproot output that just looks like a normal address. (You only unroll the tree if you unilaterally exit.) That amortizes the fee across everyone, so at scale the per-user burden becomes almost negligible.
What about ARK? Same issues?
The DA dependency isn't really the issue imo — if a holder backs up their proof each tx, a withheld proof just means it's treated as unreceived. Worst case a UX problem, handled in the background.
Spark's real problem, as I understand it, isn't that — it's that even with every proof in hand, you don't quite get true self-custody. Not because UE is impossible, but because it may not be exclusive: as I understand it the federation can equivocate, so a colluding prior owner could double-spend. And if exit exclusivity rests on federation honesty, that's not self-enforcing — or am I missing something?
One thing is satisfying, using Wisp to block shit coiners!
It is very important to use apps and money that do not require KYC. Complete sovereignty is the goal.
Just the look of it on the photo makes me feel peaceful

Do you blame Alby or lightning itself (or both)?
I'm terribly sorry. We lost our boy three years ago. It's still tough. My vest to you and your family.

The Prince is the original playbook on how to consolidate power and keep the underlings in line.

But this does mean voluntary actions get taken away.
And secondly, we have tech that makes censorship hard. So why keep using those platforms?
You want me to believe that the Euroids (police officers of the EU states) are going to enforce this on everyone? How will that even work. May as well cut the Internet off, ban import of routers etc. It becomes wild.
It's like a 3D printer ban, it's just absurd.
So I'd say, wait till it gets to that and then pushback (if you even need to, as mentioned: alt-tech is the answer)
Hey there. My wife used to have a dog. He was very cute. But then she gave it to another family, because our child was born.
Can't wait to see your dogs.

GM all you wonderful people
Disorganized connection in primal here, slow loads
Let me rephrase, the reference ord implementation is busted. Protocol is a fun idea but wholly inefficient to really build anything on.
I'm not really "into them". I think it's a fun idea. Let the retards pay the miners.
I have made a couple yes but only a couple and they're much older when I was playing with it. Indexing sats is a fun idea. But ultimately it turns sats into serialized numbers which is fun and delusional. You can't build anything serious on a shared delusion and the protocol is busted AF imo. Hence the issue. I'm a developer. You think I'm not going to play around with things to understand them?
Lots of pools in that chart. Because some have more hash than others or a significant amount is not an indication of centralization. And a 51% attack is a dumb attack vector. It's pointless. Disruption at the cost of millions for little to no gain.
Its been a pleasure moving over void Linux I have to admit, I honesty never thought I would find a perfect distro after so much hopping around but my word this distro has struck me so much. Dare I say it is the perfect distro for me
Oh my days the football today has been incredible, well done to Switzerland
Ursula really is a peace of work.
She reminds me of an "old guard" Afrikaaner, who worked in the state, who would have loved to rattle the peasants a little bit more. I say this based on her "oudoos" (old "doofus" generous translation)) haircut.
Granny vibes. And hey grannies are cool, but not evil grannies or control freak grannies.
Yes, if it leads into coercive regulations (as that is what that would be).
Then yeah, screw it, and I can see how they would push for that with the exact same:
"It's for the kids" / "It's to stop anti-semitism" / "arab terrorism"
I have no doubt that they won't be scanned 😂
And that, following my belief that a private company can do what they want given it is on the T&Cs. I completely agree the Eureich (the MPs) will somehow make themselves exempt from it coercively, unless the T&Cs end up saying "government excluded" - no problems with that.
That being said. Just don't use this stuff. These services are UTTER trash. Alternatives exist and people REALLY must put their money or time where their words are.
So it's just the EU state wanting parity with the US 😂
Ah yes, just statist things.
I don't see what the problem is.
I completely misunderstood ChatControl.
This is a fight to stop companies from doing something that they were already doing - I presume stipulated in their T&Cs as well?
If it is in the T&C's then I see no problem.
The solution is to not use those services.
Mining isn't centralized now either. And libre relay is not malicious just because it takes off core guardrails... And op return is a mempool policy and has nothing to do with the op return limit of my own transaction. I can sign and briadcast an op return bigger than that well before core 30.
I know Bitcoin has changed a lot since then. But it's spam prevention mechanism, total supply, and many other things are the same as they were then.
(Albeit, total supply did have a bug at Genesis... That's not the point.)
Tuesday of the Fourteenth Week in Ordinary Time
Reading 1 Hosea 8:4-7, 11-13
Thus says the LORD:
They made kings in Israel, but not by my authority;
they established princes, but without my approval.
With their silver and gold they made
idols for themselves, to their own destruction.
Cast away your calf, O Samaria!
my wrath is kindled against them;
How long will they be unable to attain
innocence in Israel?
The work of an artisan,
no god at all,
Destined for the flames—
such is the calf of Samaria!
When they sow the wind,
they shall reap the whirlwind;
The stalk of grain that forms no ear
can yield no flour;
Even if it could,
strangers would swallow it.
When Ephraim made many altars to expiate sin,
his altars became occasions of sin.
Though I write for him my many ordinances,
they are considered as a stranger’s.
Though they offer sacrifice,
immolate flesh and eat it,
the LORD is not pleased with them.
He shall still remember their guilt
and punish their sins;
they shall return to Egypt.
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 115:3-4, 5-6, 7ab-8, 9-10
R. (9a) The house of Israel trusts in the Lord.
or:
R. Alleluia.
Our God is in heaven;
whatever he wills, he does.
Their idols are silver and gold,
the handiwork of men.
R. The house of Israel trusts in the Lord.
or:
R. Alleluia.
They have mouths but speak not;
they have eyes but see not;
They have ears but hear not;
they have noses but smell not.
R. The house of Israel trusts in the Lord.
or:
R. Alleluia.
They have hands but feel not;
they have feet but walk not.
Their makers shall be like them,
everyone that trusts in them.
R. The house of Israel trusts in the Lord.
or:
R. Alleluia.
Alleluia John 10:14
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
I am the good shepherd, says the Lord;
I know my sheep, and mine know me.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel Matthew 9:32-38
A demoniac who could not speak was brought to Jesus,
and when the demon was driven out the mute man spoke.
The crowds were amazed and said,
“Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”
But the Pharisees said,
“He drives out demons by the prince of demons.”
Jesus went around to all the towns and villages,
teaching in their synagogues,
proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom,
and curing every disease and illness.
At the sight of the crowds, his heart was moved with pity for them
because they were troubled and abandoned,
like sheep without a shepherd.
Then he said to his disciples,
“The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few;
so ask the master of the harvest
to send out laborers for his harvest.”
I must be a pedo since I prefer running libre relay right? Or maybe I just like money you can't fuck with.
Bitcoin was designed from Genesis with a spam prevention mechanism. Attempting to block transactions containing information you don't think constitutes a valid use case is an overstep, unnecessary and poses a far greater risk to Bitcoin than any "spam" someone is paying to put on chain.
