0 sats \ 1 reply \ @Hypnagog 15 Feb \ on: Stop trying to use dice-rolled seeds unless you're an expert ❌ bitcoin

Okay I will be the noob here. So they rolled 10 dice and derived a seed (256 bits) number from that.

What you're saying is that this wasnt enough randomness. Someone looked at the chain, saw the deposit to the address generated from that seed, and brute forced it?

Here's my question: the public btc address that was generated from that seed was generated from sek256 elliptic curve math, so how on earth did the attacker know it was a low entropy seed??

I can take 44 character number with very low entropy e.g. 1234321234...etc and it will generate an address like bc1etc. There's no way for me to know that address was a low entropy address....

So why was this guys 10/roll seed an issue??

Just a question

A statement like that without supporting reasons is like stating coke is better than Pepsi. Can you tell me why?

Think of it this way: do you prefer a world with 600 banks, each knowing their own users info, or ONE GLOBAL BANK knowing everything?

There are hundreds if not thousands of isps in the world. "They" can't easily control and access all their databases.

Musk is a stooge. Starlink is the greatest threat to free internet in my opinion.

He will establish market dominance with the appearance of free internet and impartiality, then will (just like x.com) start censoring slowly.

Why on earth is ANYONE supporting starlink???? ITS A CENTRALIZED ACCESS TO THE INTERNET WHERE EVERY USER IS KYCd!!!

How does this NOT scare the shit out of everyone????

His talk was a bit difficult to follow I thought ,bit the most important quote I got from his speech:

Using vpns and encrypted messaging apps to avoid being monitored isn't freedom. Its a sign that you live in an oppressive society. True freedom comes when people stand up and change their societies so vpns are no longer necessary.

For those proposing drive chains as a subsidy for miners: miners dont need to be subsidized. If they grow too big to be profitable they should be allowed to fail. We dont need to change bitcoin to subsidize mining.
