Crypto Waltz

@SamaHoole Can the dairy include 2% milk?

You can be 80% carnivore and change your life. You can eat meat and dairy Monday to Friday and feel better than you have in years. You can have a piece of birthday cake at your nephew's party and it changes nothing. You can go on holiday, eat the local food, enjoy it, and come back to eating beef without the holiday counting as a failure. You can be a work in progress. You are allowed to be a work in progress. The person who eats well 80% of the time and sustains it for five years is healthier than the person who eats perfectly for three weeks, falls off, and spends the next year feeling like a failure. Consistency over time beats intensity over weeks. Buy the mince. Cook it in butter. Add more butter. Do this most days. The rest can figure itself out.

@TzviJoffre If moderates are being replaced with hardliners, is it really a good strategy?

Iranian regime media has now confirmed that Ali Larijani has been eliminated. x.com/FarsNews_Agenc…

Defense Minister Israel Katz says that Ali Larijani, the person who has effectively been running the regime in Iran for the past year, was eliminated in a strike last night. Larijani's Twitter account is still active with one post published after Katz's announcement, although whether or not he ran his own account in any case or used a social media manager isn't so clear.

Bitcoin Cash is what I started working on in 2010: a store of value AND means of exchange.

Did you know Tuesday? John Nieri Let's shine a light on the incredible John Nieri, Founder and President of General Protocols (@GeneralProtocol) a true pioneer in the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem whose passion and dedication are helping shape a brighter future for decentralised finance! 🌟 John's journey into crypto began back in 2012, when he first dismissed Bitcoin as "just another scam". But after diving into Satoshi's white paper, he had that "aha" moment, recognising its rock-solid cryptography and game-changing potential to create money free from traditional fiat shackles. Drawing from his experiences during the dot-com boom of the '90s and 2000s, John saw Bitcoin not just as an investment, but as a tool to empower people with independent, peer-to-peer financial freedom. John sees the evolution of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) as a continuation of the Bitcoin project. The project that he fell in love with its focus on real-world usability, seamless transactions, everyday payments, and building tools that actually solve problems, rather than chasing hype or a NgU. As a key contributor to the Bitcoin Cash Node (@bitcoincashnode), John has poured his expertise into strengthening the protocol, ensuring it's robust and ready for massive adoption and usage. His work here isn't just technical; it's about preserving the original Bitcoin vision of scalable, accessible electronic cash for everyone. In 2019, John founded General Protocols with an incredibly important mission: to craft open-source, peer-to-peer financial tools that make BCH the go-to for global commerce, savings, and finance. Under his leadership the team has delivered gems like AnyHedge (@AnyHedge), a protocol for hedging prices without relying on stablecoins, and BCH Bull (@BCH_BULL), a decentralised trading platform that lets users speculate or protect their holdings against a variety of assets with leverage, all built right on the BCH blockchain, and XO (@XO_bitcoincash) on the near horizon, looking to be a game changer for BCH DeFi. John played a pivotal role in the CashTokens upgrade in May 2023, which unlocked scalable tokens, decentralised exchanges, lending, NFTs, and more on BCH's efficient UTXO model. These innovations are making BCH more versatile and user-friendly, opening doors for projects then ever before such as Cauldron (@CauldronSwap) the fastest DEX in crypto, BCH Guru (@BCHGURU1) for placing bets and upcoming prediction markets, and many other great products. What truly inspires is John's unwavering commitment to long-term permissionless utility over short-term buzz. His vision? BCH dominating through real adoption, capturing the lion's share of global transactions via power-law growth. Mass scale decentralised permissionless money for the world and all the benefits, choice, and liberty that bring. It's BCHers like John, people who are leaving the world better than they found it, who remind us why crypto is so exciting, empowering, and worth the time and energy to realise it's potential. Keep inspiring us @EmergentReasons! 💚 #BitcoinCash #DidYouKnowTuesday

@bchautist @EmmanuelMacron Jihan diplomacy

France condemns the visa restriction measures taken by the United States against Thierry Breton and four other European figures. These measures amount to intimidation and coercion aimed at undermining European digital sovereignty. The European Union’s digital regulations were adopted following a democratic and sovereign process by the European Parliament and the Council. They apply within Europe to ensure fair competition among platforms, without targeting any third country, and to ensure that what is illegal offline is also illegal online. The rules governing the European Union’s digital space are not meant to be determined outside Europe. Together with the European Commission and our European partners, we will continue to defend our digital sovereignty and our regulatory autonomy.

Calling home all #Bitcoiners

@dgt10011 Why no #BCH ?

Many have dreamed about this moment for years. For crypto to be accepted as a diverse asset class. For crypto to be accessible as a diversified opportunity. Bitwise has led this mission since its founding moment. Proud to be a part of this history, and excited for what's ahead!

#Bitcoin is sold as decentralised. In 2025 it is a stack of concentrated power layers that sit on top of each other. Lets break it down in one big, brutal tweet. (2h of work..give a like and rt if you like it. Thanks) 🔺 1. Mining power and geography Recent global hash rate heatmap data for Q4 2025 shows a very tight concentration of physical security. Top countries by share of global Bitcoin hash rate are approximately: ➡️United States about 37.8% ➡️Russia about 15.5% ➡️China about 14.1% ➡️Paraguay about 3.9% ➡️United Arab Emirates about 3.2% ➡️Oman about 2.9% ➡️Canada about 2.9% ➡️Kazakhstan about 2.1% The key point: United States, Russia and China together sit at roughly 67% of global hash rate. Kazakhstan, once a major hub, is down to about 2.1% after regulation and energy stress. It is measured in exahash: ➡️United States around 389 EH/s ➡️Russia around 160 EH/s ➡️China around 145 EH/s So the majority of new blocks depend on a small group of states, their grids and their politics. China is officially hostile to open mining, but underground and grey zone operations continue. Aggregated analyses of mining pool data, energy patterns and hardware flows converge on that ≈14% estimate, which means China is still a major structural player in Bitcoin security. 🔺 2. Energy use and sustainability Cambridge and independent research estimate Bitcoin electricity use in 2025 in a band between about 138 TWh and 175 TWh per year. That corresponds to roughly 0.5% to 0.6% of total global electricity consumption. That is comparable to the power consumption of a mid sized industrial country such as Poland or Argentina. A newer Cambridge study reports: ➡️Annual consumption about 138 TWh ➡️Around 0.5% of global power ➡️Network wide emissions around 39.8 MtCO₂e ➡️Sustainable sources (renewables plus nuclear) around 52.4% of the energy mix Coal has declined sharply compared with earlier years, gas and hydro play a larger role, and a growing share comes from hydro rich regions like Paraguay, which alone holds about 3.9% of the global hash rate with more than 99% hydro power. Important connection: Bitcoin is now a visible slice of the global power system. Yet more than half of that power is coordinated inside a handful of grids in a handful of countries. 🔺 3. Industrial hardware and grid dependence Modern application specific mining hardware changed the structure of mining. Latest generation ASICs from major manufacturers deliver more than 100 TH/s per machine. A single device replaces entire racks of older hardware. Only operators with large capital, access to credit and direct relationships with manufacturers can stay at the technological frontier. That feeds into grid concentration. North America, especially the United States, dominates reported industrial activity. A Cambridge industry report shows that the United States accounts for about 75.4% of reported mining capacity among surveyed firms. Texas is a central example: multiple gigawatts of mining draw on the same regional grid, with some counties consuming as much power for mining as mid sized cities. Local grid operators have confirmed repeated spikes in load linked directly to large mining campuses during price surges or policy events. So mining is not just concentrated by country. It is concentrated on specific regional grids and specific industrial scale contracts. That means local regulation, grid failures or political pressure in a few regions can affect global network security. 🔺4. Mining pools and validation power Even if many firms own hardware, they usually coordinate through mining pools for reward smoothing. Public pool statistics and independent analyses show that two pools sit on top of block production: ➡️Foundry USA with roughly 30% of global hash rate ➡️Antpool with roughly 20 to 25% Together that is often 50 to 60% of all blocks, with some periods even higher. Foundry USA is closely tied to the United States mining boom. Antpool is operated by the largest ASIC maker. This does not mean they are attacking the network. It means that under any form of coordinated pressure, voluntary alignment or targeted incentive change, transaction selection and censorship risk are concentrated in two decision hubs. 🔺 5. ETFs, BlackRock and institutional capture On the asset side, spot exchange traded funds transformed the way Bitcoin is held. By late 2025, United States approved spot Bitcoin ETFs together hold more than 1.35 million $BTC . That is over 6% of the fixed 21 million BTC supply. Within that: ➡️BlackRock iShares Bitcoin Trust IBIT holds around 779 425 BTC ➡️Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund FBTC holds around 199 133 BTC So BlackRock IBIT alone sits on about 3.7% of total Bitcoin supply. Fidelity adds about 0.95%. Together these two funds control more than 4.6% of all Bitcoin that will ever exist. Coindesk reports that United States spot ETFs together recently held around 1.38 million BTC, dipping slightly to 1.33 million BTC during the latest drawdown. Capital flows are huge. One week in early October 2025 saw global crypto ETFs pull in about 5.95 billion USD, with around 5.0 billion USD of that in the United States and about 3.55 billion USD into Bitcoin products alone. The same flows reverse at times. BlackRock IBIT has already seen single day outflows above 300 million USD and monthly net redemptions above 2.4 billion USD. Connection: ETF channels sit at the intersection of traditional finance, politics and Bitcoin. They connect retirement plans, large institutional portfolios and centralised custodians directly to the base asset. That concentrates both ownership and price impact in a small number of regulated vehicles. 🔺6. @saylor and the corporate leveraged reserve strategy. In parallel with ETFs, one corporate player has positioned itself as a leveraged Bitcoin holding company. MicroStrategy, now rebranded as @Strategy , has turned its balance sheet into a Bitcoin reserve engine since 2020. Multiple filings and reports during 2025 show: Around 600k + BTC held, about 3% of total supply, with a market value above 53 billion USD at that time Later updates pushing holdings to around 597 325 BTC and then above 640 000 BTC by Q4 2025, with a total cost basis around 47.4 billion USD and market value north of 74 to 80 billion USD depending on the price window Strategy finances these purchases with a mix of: ➡️1. Large at the market equity issuance programs of up to 21 billion USD each, repeatedly renewed ➡️2. Zero coupon convertible bonds such as a 1.9 billion USD issue in early 2025 ➡️3. Preferred stock offerings planned up to around 4.2 billion USD Effectively this is a long term leveraged Bitcoin reserve that behaves like an actively managed synthetic ETF: equity, bonds and preferred stock are transformed into BTC exposure on a rolling basis. Strategically Saylor has argued that: Bitcoin only needs a relatively small annual appreciation rate to justify the strategy Volatility has decreased from about 80% to about 50% since 2020 The company is “indestructible” and can survive drawdowns of 80 to 90% in the Bitcoin price.... Combined with ETFs, this means that more than 10% of all Bitcoin is now concentrated in United States regulated funds plus one highly leveraged corporate balance sheet that is tightly coupled to United States equity markets and regulation. 🔺7. Who else holds the coins A research overview of top holders in 2025 notes: ➡️Satoshi Nakamoto linked wallets around 1.1 million BTC ➡️Coinbase as custodial exchange around 874 000 BTC ➡️BlackRock, Binance and Strategy together more than 1.89 million BTC That is a major fraction of circulating supply concentrated in a small number of institutions. Together with ETFs and corporate treasuries, this creates a network where key decisions by a small set of boards, regulators and large custodians can shift the behaviour of entire supply blocks. 🔺8. Binance and concentrated liquidity Security and supply are only part of the story. The next layer is liquidity and price discovery. Public statistics and research show that Binance remains the dominant centralised venue in 2025: Around 41.1% of global spot trading volume in June 2025 Around 37.34% of global Bitcoin spot volume in the first half of 2025 TokenInsight research cited in a separate analysis estimates that: Binance cleared about 8.39 trillion USD in trades in Q1 2025 This represented around 36.5% of all global crypto trading activity Average daily volume around 36.6 billion USD, far ahead of Bybit around 7.9 billion USD, OKX around 6.5 billion USD and Coinbase around 5.6 billion USD So one venue handles more than one third of all exchange trading and more than two fifths of spot trading. On top of that, a proprietary analysis you referenced earlier looked specifically at Binance United States dollar tether pairs: ➡️430 USDT spot pairs on Binance ➡️410 of these also had prices on OKX, Bybit, Bitget or Gate On one critical day 10.10/10.11 (depents on region) 103 Binance pairs printed lows more than 10% below the second lowest exchange ➡️Dozens of pairs had deviations between 50% and 75% ➡️Many pairs fell 75% to 100% below the second venue More than 30 pairs diverged by more than 100% from the next best price On that day, liquidation algorithms, oracles and trader psychology used those Binance prints as reference. Without those extreme prints, the liquidation wave would have been far smaller. Academic work on cross exchange arbitrage under normal conditions finds that such large price gaps rarely persist because arbitrage closes them quickly. When gaps of 10% to 100% remain for meaningful periods, it means arbitrage capital is overwhelmed, order book depth has collapsed or risk models have frozen. That is concentrated liquidity risk: the main venue for price discovery becomes a single point of failure. 🔺9. Leverage, liquidations and cascades In 2025, structural leverage in crypto has been high across centralised futures, perpetual contracts and decentralised finance. A detailed research paper on the October 10 to 11 2025 event shows: ➡️Around 19 billion USD in open interest erased in about 36 hours Triggered by a macro shock, in this case an announcement of additional 100% tariffs on Chinese imports Feedback loops between leverage, thinning liquidity and volatility amplified the move Galaxy research describes October 10 as: ➡️The largest daily futures liquidation event ever ➡️More than 19 billion USD in liquidations across exchanges ➡️Around 10.27 billion USD of liquidations on Hyperliquid ➡️Around 4.6 billion USD on Bybit ➡️Around 2.3 billion USD on Binance This sits exactly on top of the liquidity structure described earlier. If one dominant exchange prints extreme lows during an environment with very high leverage and cross exchange derivatives, the result is reflexive deleveraging. Analyses of liquidation mechanics and circuit breaker proposals show that fragmented liquidity, thin books and strong cross margin engines can turn an external shock into a full internal cascade. 🔺 10. Putting the layers together Layer by layer the picture is consistent. ➡️ 1. Physical security Around 67% of hash rate in three states. Heavy concentration in a few national grids in North America, Russia, China and emerging hubs such as Paraguay and United Arab Emirates. ➡️2. Energy and climate Around 0.5% to 0.6% of global electricity flows into Bitcoin mining, with more than 50% of that from sustainable sources, but still tightly coupled to fossil based grids and energy policy. ➡️3. Pools and validation Around 50 to 60% of blocks produced by two pools, Foundry USA and Antpool. ➡️4. Hardware and capital A short list of ASIC makers, industrial buyers with capital programs in the tens of billions of United States dollars and long term contracts with power providers. ➡️5. Custody and ownership Around 1.33 to 1.38 million BTC held by United States spot ETFs. About 779 000 BTC in BlackRock IBIT, about 199 000 BTC in Fidelity FBTC. More than 600 000 BTC in Strategy. Hundreds of thousands of BTC in large exchange custodians such as Coinbase. ➡️6. Liquidity and price discovery Around 36.5% of all crypto trading volume on Binance. Around 41.1% of global spot volume there. Deepest books for many altcoins on a single venue. ➡️7. Leverage and reflexivity Open interest measured in tens of billions of United States dollars. Documented liquidation cascades that erase 17 to 19 billion USD in a single episode, with Binance as one of the core venues. Each layer on its own would already matter. Combined they describe a system where: ➡️Security depends on decisions in a small set of governments and grids ➡️Validation is influenced by a handful of pools ➡️Long term ownership is concentrated in a few regulated vehicles and one leveraged corporate treasury ➡️Liquidity and price formation are concentrated on a single centralised exchange cluster ➡️Leverage levels are high enough that stress at one layer propagates quickly into the others This does not mean Bitcoin is broken. Blocks continue to arrive roughly every ten minutes. The protocol rules still apply. It does mean that the real world power structure around Bitcoin and the broader crypto market in 2025 is far from the ideal of widely distributed control. The chain is decentralised in code. The ecosystem that surrounds it is centralised in practice. .......... I am here to point things out. This is not FUD. I am fighting for a better crypto future. Thanks for reading this far. Very few people do. Leave a comment, like and RT if you want to support it. Thank you. - by $MASTR crypto project

Post-quantum vaults are now live on Bitcoin Cash's Chipnet, the 6-month-early preview network. 🔥 CashVM makes quantum readiness ultra-efficient: sweeps from quantum-ready addresses cut transaction sizes vs. P2PKH/P2WPKH by up to 10.9%, despite the increase from 20-byte hashes to 32-byte hashes (for highest-level, NIST Category 5 quantum security strength). Users who regularly buy or earn Bitcoin Cash to a Quantumroot vault will save on fees after just 6 payments. 🚀 Maximum Quantum Security With NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Category 5 security, Quantumroot is expected to remain secure for decades into the post-quantum era. Quantumroot implements the standard LM-OTS signature scheme (RFC 8554), which itself relies only on SHA256 for security – no lattice-based or other relatively-experimental cryptography. From a cryptographic-security perspective, Quantumroot is maximally conservative. Low Transaction Fees Bitcoin Cash's highly parallel architecture – the "UTXO model" – offers better performance and lower-level control than account-based systems, enabling Quantumroot to offer 100-1000× lower fees than equivalent vaults on Ethereum. Privacy Nonces Pre-quantum transactions do not expose associations between vault addresses: a 32-byte privacy nonce included in the hidden token-based spending path prevents even quantum attackers from connecting the address with recovery policies unless revealed by a post-quantum recovery. Sweep-Free Upgrades The hidden recovery path can be upgraded without sweeping the vault: only unassociated token UTXOs are moved on-chain. This simplifies user experiences and makes it easier for vaults to upgrade recovery, inheritance, or business continuity policies. Other details: - Post-quantum contract code adds zero bytes to pre-quantum spends. - On average, post-quantum spends are just ~1.5KB per payment. (With sufficient aggregation, ZK-STARK BCH covenants/apps could improve this further.) - P2PKH addresses can support 708 input sweeps per 100KB transaction; Quantumroot increases that to 891 inputs. - Post-quantum sweeps can fit 868 inputs or 448 unique addresses per 100KB transaction. For more details and links to on-chain transactions, see the blog post: blog.bitjson.com/quantumroot-on… For a deep dive and walkthrough of the CashVM contracts, see the August 20 tech talk: youtube.com/watch?v=OjS539…

The May 2026 upgrade is now active on Chipnet at block 279,792! 🎉 This upgrade completes the restoration of Bitcoin Script on Bitcoin Cash (CashVM), making CashVM a simple, ultra-efficient, high-level programming environment for sound money. Left: 2016 opcodes, right: 2026 opcodes 🔥 (source: vm.cash) Over the last decade, Bitcoin Cash has delivered: • 2018: Opcode restoration (OP_CAT, OP_XOR, OP_DIV, OP_MOD, etc.), • 2019: Schnorr signatures with multisig batch verification, • 2020: Density-based signature limits, • 2022: OP_MUL and introspection, • 2023: Cross-covenant commitments (CashTokens), • 2025: Density-based general limits and BigInts, • 2026: Loops, functions, bitwise, and Pay-2-Script. Each upgrade carefully preserved Bitcoin Cash's transaction-level parallelization, enabling global-scale, layer-1 throughput – without compromising Bitcoin Cash's scalability, decentralization, and censorship-resistance. Fully-validating, archival BCH nodes run on consumer hardware and still outperform clusters of high-powered, centralized sequencers required by account-based networks. With this upgrade, CashVM becomes even more powerful, allowing contract developers to efficiently implement post-quantum cryptography, homomorphic encryption, zero-knowledge proof systems, and more – without waiting for network upgrades. Case Study: Quantumroot Quantumroot is a quantum-secure vault contract design offering full 256-bit classical, 128-bit quantum security strength. Possible since May 2025, but made 10-100× more efficient by the 2026 upgrade: Quantumroot sweep transactions are 15% smaller per-UTXO than P2PKH wallets. Upgrade Details The 2026 upgrade includes four Bitcoin Cash Improvement Proposals (CHIPs): Loops CHIP Introduces the well-established, OP_BEGIN/OP_UNTIL loop construction to CashVM, bounded by the density-based limits activated in the 2025 upgrade. Loops eliminate duplication in repeated procedures, significantly reducing transaction sizes and enabling previously impractical constructions. Functions CHIP Enables factoring of contract bytecode into reusable functions with OP_DEFINE/OP_INVOKE, eliminating duplicated logic and reducing transaction sizes. Functions improve the efficiency of complex financial and cryptographic computations, including zero-knowledge proof verification, homomorphic encryption, post-quantum cryptography, and more. Bitwise CHIP Re-enables bitwise operations, including OP_INVERT for bit inversion, arithmetic shifts (OP_LSHIFTNUM and OP_RSHIFTNUM) for numeric values, and binary/logical shifts (OP_LSHIFTBIN and OP_RSHIFTBIN) for binary data. These operations allow CashVM contracts to more efficiently implement a variety of financial and cryptographic algorithms. Pay-2-Script CHIP Makes Pay-2-Script (P2S) outputs standard, enables longer token commitments (up to 128 bytes), and unifies the standard unlocking bytecode length limit with the consensus limit (10,000 bytes). These changes improve wallet ecosystem safety, simplify contract design, and reduce transaction sizes for many vault, multi-party covenant, and decentralized financial applications.Technical Specs For more details, see the CHIPs: - Loops: github.com/bitjson/bch-lo… - Functions: github.com/bitjson/bch-fu… - Bitwise: github.com/bitjson/bch-bi… - Pay-2-Script: github.com/bitjson/bch-p2s

@Jkylebass @JoeSquawk Would you be willing to recreate the ending of Dr. Strangelove?

To set Iran’s nuclear ☢️ weapons program back a decade or more, the United States must help finish the job. We are the only nation capable of dropping the GBU-57A —the ‘Mother of All Bombs MOAB’. Iran’s Natanz site is the target. #FinishingTheJob 🇮🇱 🇺🇸 ☢️ @JoeSquawk

@DC_Draino “Zelensky knows if the war ends, his power ends”. Now do #BenjaminNetanyahu

Zelensky knows if the war ends, his power ends Elections will resume and he’ll lose Then his adversary will investigate his money laundering and he’ll be sent to prison Zelensky is sending innocent Ukrainians to die in his meat grinder so he can stay in power Dictator

@celestialbe1ng Had good success with weight loss doing Honey Diet, but my triglycerides went up off the chart. Is this common?

@Thermobolic How long do you need to wait after your last piece of fruit before eating anything else? Do you need to wait until the insulin levels go down @anabology

Eating only fruit for an extended period is like intermittent fasting without the fasting. Instead of starving and crushing your metabolism, your metabolism upregulates. You fee much better, have more energy, and prevent a catabolic state.

@5HTskeptic What gelatin are you using?

Been doing this for a little over 2 weeks now. Added in cherry/honey jello, sweetened coffees with collagen, and coconut milk hot cocoa with marshmallows during my "no protein" period of the day. Increased my total protein intake from around 80g to 100g with the additional protein being only from gelatin. It seems gelatin protein is definitely an exception to the metabolism-lowering effects of other proteins since it is defficient in isoleusine. Can eat just as much without putting on weight. energy levels are still high and stable, sleep is great. If you feel unsatiated without protein, I can safely say gelatin is a great and effective solution.
