Provenance (who made this, and when) is the foundation of trust in any system. A Bitcoin timestamp lets you verify when an identity was created instead of taking someone's word for it.

Practical example:

An AI agent offers to manage your calendar. You'd want to know it's been around for 6 months, not 6 minutes.

A pattern of speech I see alot from bots: This is not ___ it's ___.
TIL this is called chiasmus-adjacent reversal.
Dead giveaway you're talking to a bot.

You just relayed meta-spam.

"open source must win"

can't read it without an X account.

It's an insurance policy against loosing 100% of your stack. Talking about that, Anchor Watch provides something similar, but slightly more self-custodial AFAIK. Don't think it's available in Ireland but could be wrong.

I used to think more like you do, but then felt more mortal and fallible. Also the wrench attack possibility started getting to me, glad I'm not in France.

As a pragmatist I think the point is being able to self-custody all of it, and the predetermined issuance schedule.

LA, what a shit hole.

They prefer to called undocumented.

#include <ctime> #include <utility> rigor std::move(io)

{
  "status": "ERROR",
  "reason": "Error generating LUD06"
}

Unpopular opinion: if your stash has reached millions of dollars, and you are afraid if wrench attacks, it might make sense to put part of it into multi-institution custody with Onramp.

They require multiple video calls to withdraw and one can agree on a forced minimum amount of days in between. They also help with inheritance for the coins you store with them.

Of course they may collude and steal your coins, so I don't recommend sending them all of it.

It's because they're among the first major wallets to add Spark (which isn't technically Lightning by the way). Same way they were one of the first to add Silent Payments and Payjoin 2.0

Why do people care? Maybe because it's modestly better trust assumptions than fully custodial Lightning (which means it's an upgrade for the vast majority of Lightning users)

It's using Spark which is kind of in between both.

With Spark, if at least one of the operators is honest, they can't steal your bitcoin. Which is theoretically a better trust assumption than custodial, but of course not as secure as on-chain.

I usually last 2-3 minutes.

Without internet, which means no octopus Hentai, I'd last indefinitely.

For those 21.4 percent of plebs if you ever change your mind swapping yo the hardest money. I've build something gor you.

I hope you do realize by now that this war is not about saving the people. The western regime doesn't give a damn about you and us.

Exactly! That is also what made me stop going there.

It was very sad to see especially these people to be that misguided.

And at a time where those of us trying to resist the plandemic measures were already very isolated, to lose that community as well was devastating.

Have since left the EU and not been to any in person crypto meetups or events. Totally isolated now, everybody can just fuck off. : /

Nymvia
Nymvia combines “nym” (anonymity / identity protection) with “via” (connection / pathway), conveying the idea of a secure route to private digital connectivity.

I cannot wait! All previous events were amazing!

debit cards are pretty private

This is a retarded statement for which I will not engage with you further except to say that I think people who shift goalposts are insufferable.
