"The visualization of the mempool as these projected blocks... we partnered, open sourced it... and when the mempool got full for the first time, everyone was on mempool.space" @wiz is cofounder of @mempool, the industry standard in Bitcoin block explorers and analytics platforms. In this interview at the second annual @MaxAndStacyGolf Invitational, Wiz and I discussed: - his first visit to El Salvador (in 2021!) - the backstory of cofounding mempool.space - Mempool's recent relocation to El Salvador - his experience at events in Bitcoin Country like this one at El Encanto Country Club and Bitcoin Histórico at the National Palace, where he announced the relocation - his collaboration with the @bitcoinofficesv to create a custom dashboard website for El Salvador's treasury reserve at Bitcoin.gob.sv Thank you Wiz for taking the time to do this interview, and for cofounding the best Bitcoin blockchain explorer! I've used Mempool.Space many times for monitoring the network's status (trends in fees, mining pools, difficulty adjustments, etc), confirming on-chain transactions, and more. When I first used it back in 2020 (while working in data analytics, with special appreciation for data visualization tools), I never expected to meet the cofounder. You can watch the full episode with this and three other mini-interviews from the @MaxAndStacyGolf Invitational here: rumble.com/v769q76-max-an… @maxkeiser and @stacyherbert and Bitcoin Sports Network @BSN_Events do a spectacular job creating special experiences that bring together so many great people. Stay tuned for more interviews from this event coming soon!

"What better way to spend a Friday and Saturday than being out with your friends, talking about Bitcoin, and playing golf?" The @MaxAndStacyGolf Invitational is the most fun Bitcoin/golf event in the universe. For two years in a row, over 300 Bitcoiners have flown from around the world to El Encanto, the premier country club in El Salvador, for two days of activities: - golf - poker - pickleball - pool party - conference hosted by @maxkeiser With so many interesting guest speakers and attendees, I recorded another series of 12 mini-interviews for the Bitcoin Country Podcast. Episode 1 (of 3 from this event) is now available: rumble.com/v769q76-max-an… The full episode combines four mini-interviews: @LinaSeiche - "What is Money" curriculum, Bean of Fire, The Little HODLer @wiz - cofounder @mempool Trey Sellers @ts_hodl and Rocky Wold @rkywld - @unchained Sergio Bermudez @Martez305 - Salvadorian founder BitcoinCaps.net Thank you to all five guests for taking the time. My only complaint is that they gave too many great answers... the highlight trailer ended up being twice as long as I intended! Topics in the trailer clips included: - the event's backstory - first El Salvador experiences - recent innovations in Bitcoin Country - meeting President @nayibbukele - a Salvadorian's reaction to the Bitcoin Law - why @MaxAndStacyGolf is uniquely amazing ...and much more. Thanks to @elbrandonmartin for recording these! Enjoy the full episode here: rumble.com/v769q76-max-an… And stay tuned... I'll release each of these four mini-interviews separately here on X over the next few days. Then there are two more episodes from this event after that, featuring many more incredible guests here in Bitcoin Country 🇸🇻🚀

Having a quick lunch steak sandwich with your young-adult son at the steakhouse bar next to the bank where he works, then going on with your busy work days has got to be a peak parenting satisfaction moment. No matter what happens to me, he's gonna be alright. I'm so proud. 💕

@notgrubles me neither, but it seems like the main two use cases are either if you don’t have access to USD banking and need a basic USD account, or if you “trade crypto” and hold your capital in USD instead of bitcoin

David Bailey🇵🇷 $2.0mm/btc is the floor
Our journey started 14 years ago when Bitcoin was only $10. Our mission was to make Bitcoin real, something we called hyperbitcoinization. Roughly a year ago we decided to take that vision to the next level with the launch of @Nakamoto. Today, I am proud to announce that all of our companies @BitcoinMagazine @TheBitcoinConf @UTXOmgmt are now one under Nakamoto Inc. Chapter One is now complete, and the next Chapter in our mission to Orange pill the world begins. Today is Day Zero. Thank you. bitcoinmagazine.com/news/nakamoto-…

Yes, don’t use low entropy wallets. But also…@mempool should label known inputs that belong to exchanges. I’ve had the same problem where I’ll pay someone some bitcoin using an exchange and they’re surprised to see how large of UTXO the payment came from, thinking I owned it. 😅
Terence Michael@ProofOfMoney

A bot just took my Bitcoin👇 ***** I love the word "PROOF." So I created the first 12-word wallet with just PROOF twelve times and christened it with its first transaction. But obviously, that’s terrible entropy. No one should ever choose their own 12 words. (Unless you feel like making a small donation to North Korea 😂)

@MrHodl @brian_trollz @w_s_bitcoin @mempool we don’t really maintain a list of what entities control what UTXOs, that’s outside the scope of the project. someone who does maintain such a list could publish a browser extension that overlays that data on top of the site as you browse…

@wiz @w_s_bitcoin @mempool You should reconsider based on peoples personal safety. An exchange label doesn't give much if anything away vs. the possible risk of people they're transacting with having a wildly overblown impression of someone's stack.

I somewhat feel that this entire switch in focus to the Moon is like some kind of April Fool’s bad joke, especially when I see these images of lunar cities. They look like crude, low-effort knockoffs of Mars renders. Mars is a world, and the Moon is just a rock. It seems some politicians saw that China is going to land on the Moon by 2030 and instinctively wanted to race them. Little do they realize that America is already the top dog, far ahead of anyone else in the room. Why not just stick with a well defined roadmap? There is no reason for the leader to actively compete against the runner-up, is there? Are these people in power idiotic? No wonder the very same people designed the SLS, that infamous white elephant.

SpaceX goes lunar with intent. A Moon city. Short hops. Tight loops. Mars is patient. Sustainability beats flags and footprints. Civilization learns to live off-world. @SpaceX

@1440000bytes Good question. It used to, but I changed the router hardware and now for some reason the IPv6 peering doesn’t work. I will look into this with @TheBlueMatt

@wiz is there a reason why your DNS seed doesn't provide IPv6 node addresses?

@cuboplus @uupei1 @mempool Of course @mempool is a software company looking for software engineers but we’re also hiring for non-technical roles. The important thing is to find passionate Bitcoiners who match our culture and vision and hire them to do what they’re passionate about!
