@Moaikol @BTCBreadMan @adriannamendez_ @dotkrueger They can freeze your funds as they want. It's similar to losing 90% of your savings because the asset has a vulnerability.

@f_monts @BTCBreadMan @adriannamendez_ @dotkrueger you can’t lose your bitcoin* overnight like with banks, and that remains the case

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

@ewstevenson @RichardGny @SalsaTekila That would make nocoiners and people who missed out or panic sold happy, and punish those who always believed in bitcoin and held.

@f_monts @RichardGny @SalsaTekila Incorrect. It is better to let the risk play out and the coins be redistributed than to debank people.

Unpopular opinion: This is going to happen and most holders silently want this to happen. Assuming it’s done with a fair grace period, it seems right. People talking about the ‘original ethos’ are talking out of their sidelined arses or virtue signaling.

@radic3_eth @ggcripto @CriptovalutaI Se Satoshi è vivo è libero di fare upgrade. Se è morto, meglio bloccarli e rimuovere l'incertezza che qualcuno in futuro trovi la chiave (banalmente anche facendo pulizia in un suo vecchio cassetto). Nessuno vuole investire in un asset vulnerabile

Esatto! Per questo spero in un'opzione C... Per come la vedo e per quello che ho capito io, stiamo ancora discutendo sul trade-off tra "prepararci" e non. Purtroppo non ho una soluzione, né le capacità di pensare a cosa "si potrebbe fare", però sicuramente qui il tema è trovare l'esplosione più controllata possibile... perché qualcosa esploderà sicuro. Detto ciò ritengo che comunque qualcosa vada fatto, che sia sacrificare i wallet legacy, o fare un processo alle intenzioni e bloccarli in anticipo... qualcosa va fatto perché non basta la fede a superare il problema post-quantistico

Se non ti muovi ti congelo. Arriva una proposta per un Bitcoin resistente ai quantum computer. Non piace a tanti, che dicono: mai congelare i Bitcoin di Satoshi. Link nei commenti

@RichardGny @SalsaTekila If Satoshi he's alive he's free to upgrade to a new address. Nobody filters anything. If he's dead... better to remove uncertainty than having some random guy find the seed in an old attic in 2040.

@SalsaTekila It’s immoral and of course is the beginning of the end and it’s abundantly obvious to anyone who has a basic understanding of what happens after you start filtering the founders addresses…..

@BTCBreadMan @adriannamendez_ @dotkrueger You are wrong. Uncertainty kills the market, nobody wants to invest in an asset with a security vulnerability in it. Bitcoin was made to be the most secure asset, you can't lose your money overnight like with banks. That would happen if somebody gets access to Satoshi's wallets

@adriannamendez_ @dotkrueger Bitcoin’s security model is not fundamentally broken by a bunch of coins being compromised by quantum computing. That’s a misunderstanding of what Bitcoin’s security model is.

@AlgonikHQ @Cointelegraph If you accumulate BTC and someone brute-forces Satoshi's wallet, you have accumulated for nothing.

Freezing Satoshi’s coins to protect them from quantum is essentially asking Bitcoin to break its own rules to save itself. The immutability is the point. If the protocol can be changed once for a good reason it can be changed again for a bad one. I’ll keep accumulating $BTC either way, the long game doesn’t change. 🪙

🚨 LATEST: Cypherpunk Jameson Lopp and co-authors propose BIP-361 to freeze quantum-vulnerable Bitcoin, including Satoshi's $74B stash, before quantum computers can steal them.

@AshCrypto This is amazing news that removes any fears that 1) Satoshi's wallets get hacked 2) Somebody finds the private key of the late Satoshi and spends them, effectively dropping btc price to a near-zero value

BREAKING: Bitcoin developers have proposed BIP-361 to freeze early Bitcoin addresses that have quantum vulnerabilities. This includes Satoshi wallets and other OG dormant wallets from the 2010-11 era. It's a big step, as these wallets hold over 4M BTC and are at high risk from future quantum computing attacks.

@rubyythecherryy @AshCrypto If it doesn't pass and one day satoshi's wallets get hacked? Btc goes instantly to $0.

@AshCrypto This is the final test for BTC. If we pass ist GG.

@cavicchioli Peggio di Orban è comunque difficile. Vedremo a breve se sbloccherà i 90 miliardi

E se il nuovo premier ungherese fosse in realtà solamente un ciuccia-Putin mascherato? Ovvero non me la sentirei di escludere a priori che, una volta andato al potere, facesse l'esatto contrario di ciò che ha promesso in campagna elettorale...

@cavicchioli Affermazioni senza fondamento x.com/WhatsApp/statu…

Secondo Durov (il fondatore di Telegram), "la crittografia di WhatsApp potrebbe essere la più grande truffa ai consumatori della storia". Durov sostiene che, nonostante le sue affermazioni, WhatsApp in realtà legge i messaggi degli utenti e li condivide con terze parti:

@manipulate @durov When you report a conversation it says the last n messages will be sent to WhatsApp. That is good and it's also why there's no spam on WhatsApp. End-to-end encryption doesn't mean forbidding the recipient to do what they want with those messages, it's like making a screenshot

@durov It would be nice if there was a technical explanation on how this would be possible. If it's primarily policy violation then the user breaks the encryption by reporting the message. That would be on device though, no? No vulnerability.

WhatsApp’s “encryption” may be the biggest consumer fraud in history — deceiving billions of users. Despite its claims, it reads users’ messages and shares them with third parties. Telegram has never done this — and never will 🤝

@eastdakota @levelsio Also please let us set rules account-wide! When you manage many sites that get attacked with the same patters, it's a lot of manual work having to maintain all those rules for each site 🥹

@levelsio Dumbfounding that went away. One of the first things we built back in 2010. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Getting fixed.

The main thing I miss on Cloudflare is a single [ Block IP ] button It boggles my mind it's not there, you can see a traffic spike and a person doing 50,000 requests per minute, but you have to write a security rule and go through 10 steps to block it Too difficult Just let me [ Block IP ] from the Security Analytics or general Analytics dashboard @daneknecht @eastdakota

@JoeyMannarino Spain (and most Europe): 30 days of paid vacation per year. US: 0 guaranteed, you are lucky if you get 10. You have to work every day of your life! How can you be happy

People really aren’t aware of how poor Europeans are. The most common salary in Spain is €1,298 per month. An average apartment exceeds €250,000. If you manage to save €250 per month, you’d need 1,000 months to pay for it. That’s more than 83 years to buy yourself an apartment. Is it really worth having public healthcare instead of private insurance when you have to live poor your entire life?

@RingoNaughton @Citrusbeetle @The_Banned_Vids They probably did it before filming

@Citrusbeetle @The_Banned_Vids Clip the fibre optic from a distant - if it was obvious.

🇺🇦Bravery: Ukrainian soldiers finds a Russian fibreoptic drone sitting and waiting to ambush, they approach it from behind and removed the warhead.

@JacobKinge If you bought gold in 2012 you were in loss for 8 years, even -50%. The same could happen if you buy now

In 2021, Bitcoin was $68,000. Today, in 2026, Bitcoin is $65,000. If you also factor in inflation rates, you can see how this is one of the worst performing assets. It has seen zero growth, with a -20–30% LOSS over the last half a decade. Remember when maxis promised Bitcoin would act like a financial black hole, pulling in hundreds of trillions from across the globe? In reality, the opposite played out, capital moved away from this worthless fad, not toward it. Meanwhile investors flocked to actual safe havens like Gold, which is up over 164%+

@VGPMuseum @Apple @AppleSupport - Iphone 13 was released 4.5 years ago - no major hardware producer supports firmware downgrade as far as I know

Good news everyone! If you updated to iOS 26.4 and decide to downgrade, to 26.3.1 because it won't accept your ID, you're stuffed.. unless you have an older backup from earlier! Thank you so much @Apple @AppleSupport for wrecking my phone with your stupid obeying of draconian and invasive UK laws, and costing us 200+GB of data. I've personally used Apple products since 2011, and today is my last day. Good news is @GrapheneOS is ready to go.

@Heroiam_Slava The only security guarantee is seeing two dates on Putin’s Wikipedia page

The US has given Ukraine an ultimatum: there will be security guarantees only if Kyiv gives all of Donbas to Putin, — Zelensky.

@shimanshu_c @ashoKumar89 @SumitM_X There is no need of bloom filters. When you send an email to gmail, the mail server checks in a few milliseconds if the target mailbox exists, if your sending IP or email address is blacklisted, ecc... They are all simple queries on indexed columns

@ashoKumar89 @SumitM_X But in the huge distributed system like that of google, still it takes time to check all the usernames, and indexing alone isn't the solution, the lookup in O(1) is fine but they use something called bloom filters, it's not a single but rather layered approach

As a developer, Have you ever wondered : You type a Gmail username and UI instantly shows "Username already taken"... There are millions of users globally How is this check so fast?

@ZIONINTELAGENCY @TheOisinMoran @AerLingus Transliteration is not that simple, there are cases where the same symbol has a different sound depending on the language... Like Russian/Ukrainian. And you risk it wouldn't match your passport.

@TheOisinMoran @AerLingus I agree here - if they can strip hypens and apostrophes, they can convert í and è and so on My last name's got an è in it and I run into shit all the damn time lol

My Irish name apparently invalid on Ireland's flag carrier airline @AerLingus 👎

@catebligh @soychotic From my websites I can serve images the way I want. You are not supposed to steal them anyway

@soychotic people who fight for webp in the comments don't work with images on the regular and it shows

Who the fuck made .webp I just wanna talk
