This paragraph is very odd to me. There is not a better solution to my problems than using bitcoin. If there was I would use it. Why would one become a bitcoiner if they didn't think it was the best solution to the problems they face. I doubt many bitcoiners think there are better solutions to the problems they face. .

If people don't understand the complexities(at least the general ideas) of bitcoin they will eventually do something silly that prohibits them from experiencing all the freedom that comes with bitcoin. People will enter their seed phrases where they shouldn't or hold their keys with custodians etc... There is a risk of making things too easy for " most of the world".

For on chain bitcoin all you need is the seed phrase(derivation path and/or adress type would be helpful too). For lightning channels you need a bit more. Do you remember saving a file called a secure channel backup or having a .scb file extension.

I'm not familiar with umbrel so much but it looks like they have an automatic backup feature that you could restore funds with a new umbrel setup and your 24 word backup. This video may help you. https://x.com/umbrel/status/1562099972547690501

What are some examples that you talk about?

Pretty obvious who did it in my opinion.

The brain wallets talked about in this post are described in this wiki. Nothing to do with 12 word mnemonic seed phrases.

When the second bot realizes it knows the private key it has to create and broadcast a transaction with a slightly higher fee than the first not. When the first bot sees this transaction it creates a new transaction with a higher fee. And so on and so forth until the transaction is all fees.

The reason it has to do with brain wallets is because people are using insecure methods to generate a private key like taking a common phrase and hashing it with sha256 and using that as a private key.(this is what brain wallets are. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Brainwallet#Obsolete_Brainwallet_Style). And these bots keep databases of billions of addresses generated this way and as soon as money is sent to one of them the race is on as to who can spend it first.

Legacy wallets are different than brain wallets. Legacy wallets are not compromised.

"DOGE aims to deliver $2 trillion in federal spending cuts during its 18-month lifespan.

Fishback’s proposal calls for 20 percent of the $2 trillion in savings—approximately $400 billion—to be returned to 79 million tax-paying households via direct payments."

How did I get a bonus 2 points for Brugge game?

There appears to be a bug in the calculation and anything over 808 confirmations at 48 percent of the hash rate says 100 percent reorg risk. 800 confirmations fives 5 percent reorg risk and if that calculation is correct than every confirmation after that will be lower than 5 percent.

Op, Go back to fiat. Bitcoin is not for you! If you cannot take responsibility for writing 24 words down and remembering and/Or backing them up then bitcoin is not for you?

No

Where it ends is no more fiat. Save in bitcoin and spend it when you need/want something.

I think op is overthinking it. He has enough bitcoin and is retired. What is the problem? The end goal is not to end up with the most possible bitcoin and hodl forever. It’s to live a balanced, fulfilled live. Bitcoin is a great tool towards that end but not the end itself. There is a happy medium where you save up enough bitcoin to retire and/or work on only what you choose to and spend your savings on things you need to live your life as you choose.
