Never thought this would happen. My Metamask wallet is drained. Over $40k USD lost while I’m travelling. I’m fucked.

@Davincij15 4 subwoofer!!

When I was younger I had an insane stereo system in my van. 4 twelve inch subs, 10 tweeters, 4 amplifiers, dual battery. I showed it off to everyone. One day my best friend told me someone approached him trying to find out where I live. They wanted to rob me for the equipment. My own circle. Someone tried to use my best friend as the setup. I pulled everything out that day. The things you show off are the things people come for. This is why I never show my Bitcoin stack. Self-custody means silence.

Nobody’s locking nobody’s coins This is bitcoin If you want to freeze, go fork

@btcefe c'è del vero

Even daring to introduce BIP-361 that violates property rights is an indication of the cultural decay in bitcoin.

For fuck’s sake. I am Satoshi. I wanted to stay anonymous, but you fuckers had to come up with the genius idea of freezing my coins. Please don’t freeze my fucking coins, okay?

Good morning, people talking about changing Bitcoin should never be trusted, regardless of the softness of the fork.

Jameson Lopp is a shitcoiner

LATEST: ⚡ Adam Back is pushing for Bitcoin's quantum-resistance upgrades to be optional, letting users voluntarily migrate to quantum-safe addresses rather than forcing it network-wide.

I don’t think you guys understand. We MUST freeze the old coins and censor the uncensorable money. If we do not do so, then the uncensorable money may be at risk.

drink water and mind your business

Freezing coin sets such a terrible precedent. The fact some people even consider it, boggles the mind.

Imagine authoring a BIP so despicable that even its author has to declare his dislike of it and distance himself from its activation.

This is really trying to trigger drama for the sake of it... Such a move is purely about protecting the bag of existing bitcoiners, it's morally wrong. If it those addresses get hacked, let the price collapse and reward the new capital.

if we have to lock peoples coins to save them from getting stolen $BTC is garbage lol

I just want to come in and check to see if your Bitcoin are Quantum proof.

We went from "adjusting the block size ever so slightly is unthinkable" to "let's just freeze coins because we don't like what could happen to them" in a decade. That would have been unthinkable in 2017.

Dejen las monedas de Satoshi tranquilas.

BIP-361 wants to freeze Satoshi's coins to protect against quantum computers. This might be the most dangerous idea in Bitcoin's history. And the threat it's solving isn't even real. Shor's algorithm theoretically breaks elliptic curve cryptography. Theoretically. The machines that could actually do this don't exist. We need millions of stable, error-corrected qubits. Today's best hardware has thousands and isn't close. We're decades away. Maybe more. But even if quantum computers eventually cracked old P2PK addresses, so what? Coins re-entering circulation isn't a crisis. It's a Gold Rush. People race to recover forgotten wallets. Supply hits the market. Prices adjust. Holders who care migrate to quantum-resistant addresses. The market absorbs it. That's not a bug. That's Bitcoin working exactly as designed. "But Satoshi's coins..." What about them? Satoshi never gave anyone authority over those coins. Not Jameson Lopp. Not the developers. Not the community. The whole point of Bitcoin is that nobody freezes your coins. Nobody. Not even with good intentions. Here's the precedent that should terrify you: once you establish that coins can be frozen for their own protection, you've introduced permissioned holding into a permissionless system. The Bitcoin that can freeze lost coins to protect us from hypothetical quantum threats is the same Bitcoin that can freeze your coins to protect us from hypothetical criminals. The logic is identical. The door, once opened, doesn't close. Solve quantum resistance the Bitcoin way. Better address standards, user education, voluntary migration. That's how every legitimate upgrade happens. Bitcoin's immutability isn't a bug to patch when it gets inconvenient. It's the whole product.

Satoshi's coins should not be frozen. Let them be quantum mined. The network will adjust. Proof of work.
