50 sats \ 0 replies \ @kruw 16 Nov \ on: Bitcoin doesn’t need to conquer the world to succeed bitcoin
Frankly, this is wrong. Bitcoin's security comes from transaction fees paid to miners. If Bitcoin is only used by a small niche of people, then they can easily be censored by a 51% attack.

25%+ of all the nodes on the network on running on StartOS.
Interesting claim, how do they measure this statistic?
21 sats \ 1 reply \ @kruw 31 Oct \ on: How of core 30 to have the new op_return implemented bitcoin_beginners
I was wondering how much in % of nodes must be running core 30 in order to have the op_return limit increased.
Roughly 0%. Miners can put an OP_RETURN up to 1MB in a block regardless of what P2P nodes set their config to.
This block that was mined 6 months ago is entirely filled by a 1MB OP_RETURN, long before Core V30's release: https://mempool.space/block/000000000000000000005bcbf03e6488be1ceb3b501ecfc2b11cce900a870636

I am just curious about Bitcoin Cash, why the big block and more speed you have on Bitcoin transactions people not interested on it?
There's empty block space on Bitcoin, why would anyone be interested in bigger blocks?

Bitcoin is censorship resistant. If you don't like that, then fork off.

This could even be a disaster for 1 conf. But in this case, most transactions ended up in both versions of the block.
100 sats \ 4 replies \ @kruw 19 Oct \ on: My Second Thoughts on Silent Payments bitdevs
Here's my take for now, if you feel I missed something, leave it in the comments below!
The best way to send silent payments from desktop is with Wasabi Wallet. It has BIP157/BIP158 block filters, Tor by default, and coinjoins to protect your privacy from third parties & from the receiver.

This idea sounds like Liana wallet. The "trigger" is reset by spending your coins on chain.

It's okay if you use that change output to refill that same lightning wallet in the future.
0 sats \ 2 replies \ @kruw 7 Oct \ parent \ on: (Q.) Wasabi Coinjoin Steps bitcoin_beginners
There's only 2 more details I would mention:
  • Make sure that you do not share the xpub address of your cold storage wallet with third party servers; run your own node
  • When transferring between your own wallets, try to send entire UTXOs without creating a leftover change output

I think this film is really overrated, but Nicholson's talented acting makes it entertaining.
There's a sequel called "Doctor Sleep" that's basically the same style as a superhero movie.

Good plan. Make sure you write down your passphrase for Wasabi Wallet, it acts the "13th word" of your recovery seed.

"1 BTC = 1 BTC" is the worst, you hear this cope repeated whenever the price goes down.
