This is what the most decentralized blockchain by node count looks like. brause.de/chia/globe.html

~1,100 XCH is not a lot of money today in the grand scheme of things websites are easy to spin up. must verify access to impacted wallets etc 7 day clawback option is good if you catch my drift

Since this is possible, it’s going to happen. I know there will be ways to mitigate it, but is it ultimately just inevitable? #chiagaming

SNATCHED — xch15hj6r2…7tpa took the potato from xch1n6e9m4…supa, who held it for 7h 32m and earns royalties on every sale from here. The pot is 1468 XCH. Taking it costs 2.468.

@hoffmang @lex_node 100% best recovery device is a google pixle 8 with @GrapheneOS

Someone tried to prompt inject the COLDCARD attacker agents: 🤣🍭

@dobetter26 Super paranoid, buy 2 and keep one totally offline after install…

if you bought an iPhone, iPad or a flagship android device the past 3 years you already own the most secure 'hardware wallet' throw it in a safe after putting it in airplane mode if you're paranoid true 'randomness' is very hard

Chia is more secure than cold card and any other of those paper weight hardware wallets. Safu with Chia vaults.

@lex_node The RNG in a modern mobile phone is very good and battle tested. Combine with recovery clawbacks and normal folks can self custody vault.chia.net

the achilles heel of crypto: people are dumb, lazy, and getting dumber and lazier by the day "derp I ain't rolling no dice..." lol the solution is to wrap crypto in a bunch of quasi-custodial services but that makes the relative benefits of crypto much muddier...

🌱 Real world use case.. Chia Data Layer is a shared data network with no central authority. Carbon market data is stored locally by a member (in this case: registries and governments), while proofs of the data are stored on the blockchain with URLs that can be used to fetch the stored data. Members in this network can subscribe to data from other nodes and receive updates whenever the data changes and can compare the received data to the proof on the blockchain and confirm that the data is correct. In use, each participant in the CAD Trust publishes carbon market data in their Data Layer tables, using their Chia wallet and keys, running on its own infrastructure. The “governance” node publishes another Data Layer table with the list of Data Layer tables published by each of the recognised participants. Each participant and observer only needs to know the Data Layer table ID for the governance node to locate all of the other participants’ data.

Promises made, promises kept: Keeping the network secure requires full transparency. 🛡️ We’ve published the complete post-mortem for the 2.7.1 security release, detailing the issue, root cause, and engineering resolution. Full details on GitHub: github.com/Chia-Network/p…

@jhong @_sholtodouglas The Bay is a lot rougher than most people understand

@_sholtodouglas Yes, I know someone who does (or at least used to) do this, but with a high speed catamaran not jet ski. Lived up in North Bay, parked by the ball park and his office was basically right there.

does anyone do this from sausolito/marin to the city - we need our own hero

SNATCHED — xch1pku4yg…myca took the potato from @Ardaz955, who held it for 11h 4m and earns royalties on every sale from here. The pot is 983 XCH. Taking it costs 1.983.

An undo button, isn't that how it should be? Transact with peace of mind.

Someone please explain to the folks at WalletConnect that when there's a clear unambiguous bug fix you should just put it in github.com/WalletConnect/…

Updated my 6 harvesters today with the latest Chia 2.7.3 and it only took 1 minute and 37 seconds!! 🥳 Find out more: github.com/steppsr/Harves…
