In case you didn’t know, I hacked Mario Kart to pay out bitcoin, streaming in real time to your Lightning wallet from my nodes. I manually reverse engineered the game’s live RAM without the help of AI. Then I wrote all the code myself the old way, by hand. Anyway, we’ll be playing all day, both days at @TheBitcoinConf. Find me and @briimhd at the main entrance in front of the Expo hall. The top 4 players will then go on to compete on the main stage at the end of day two to win bitcoin, prizes, and bragging rights. 🫡🏆

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Four-star military officer Admiral Samuel Paparo confirms the USA is running a Bitcoin node. "We have a node on the Bitcoin network right now. We're doing a number of operational tests to secure and protect networks using the Bitcoin protocol."

‼️🇪🇺 The EU's new Age Verification app was hacked with little to no effort. When you set it up, the app asks you to create a PIN. But that PIN isn't actually tied to the identity data it's supposed to protect. An attacker can delete a couple of entries from a file on the phone, restart the app, pick a new PIN, and the app happily hands over the original user's verified identity credentials as if nothing happened. It gets worse. The app's "too many attempts" lockout is just a counter in a text file. Reset it to 0 and keep guessing. The biometric check (face/fingerprint) is a simple on/off switch in the same file. Flip it to off and the app skips it entirely.

In 1967, Buckminster Fuller said: “Wealth isn’t gold, it’s energy. By 2000, there will be a scientific accounting system for wealth, aligned with the laws of physics.” He described Bitcoin before it existed.

“BTC uses too much energy.” There’s only 3 ways to secure a monetary ledger. - with atoms (gold) - with energy (BTC) - with social / political consensus (fiat) Energy is the only path to unbreakable hard money. There’s no scarcity of atoms.

A large tree trunk has been uncovered beneath a glacier in the Alps, dated to around 6,000 years ago. The species is Swiss stone pine. Today, trees of that type cannot grow at that altitude because it is far too cold. 6,000 years ago aligns with the Holocene climate optimum, a time when temperatures were far higher than now, even with far less atmospheric CO2. Earth's climate is cyclical. Mother Nature self-regulates. Narratives of doom serve political aims, not reality.

Money was literally invented to not have to know your customer. It was created to eliminate the layer of trust needed between the exchange of goods. KYC is antithetical to money.

This is central banking in a nutshell: A group of rich guys go to the king and say: "Hey, you need money for your war. We'll give you all the money you want." The king says: "Great, where's the money?" They say: "We're going to make it up. We'll write numbers in a book and that's your money now." The king says: "What do I owe you?" They say: "You pay us back with interest." The king says: "Where do I get that money?" They say: "You tax your citizens." The king says: "What if I can't pay it all back?" They say: "That's fine. We'll lend you more. Same deal." The king says: "And what do you do with the IOUs I gave you?" They say: "We use them to prove we have money, so we can lend even more money to other people and charge them interest too." The king says: "So you made up money, lent it to me, I tax my people to pay you back, and then you use my debt to make up even more money and lend it to everyone else?" They say: "Yes." The king says: "What did it cost you?" They say: "Nothing." That's literally how the Bank of England started in 1694. The Bank was formed to finance King William's war with France. The king gave the Bank a charter, granting it a monopoly on money. The king could have as much money as he wanted. The bankers could always earn interest. Taxpayers covered the bill. Now replace "king" with "United States Government" and you have the Federal Reserve in 1913. Same story, different country. It doesn't end there. 185 central banks exist in the world today. Across the globe, the governments get as much money as they want, the bankers load their pockets with interest, and the taxpayers pay for it all. Oh, and if you don't pay your taxes, they'll fine you, penalize you, or throw you in jail. The ONLY way out of this is to STOP USING THEIR MONEY. As long as you're using the money that central banks control, the central banks will have control. You have to stop giving them energy. Use a different form of money that they can't control. This is why Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin.

Chain analysis companies have sophisticated tools to cluster your Bitcoin addresses, trace your spending patterns, and infer your identity from on-chain behavior. They sell this to governments and corporations. Until now, you had no way to see what they see. On last week's #FREEDOMTECHFRIDAY we sat down with @brenorb and Jorge, two builders from Brazil who created Stealth - an open-source Bitcoin wallet privacy audit tool. You paste your public wallet descriptor, it runs 12 different heuristics locally (address reuse, consolidation patterns, dust attack detection, behavioral fingerprinting, change detection, and more), and shows you exactly where your privacy is leaking.

Holy shit... Microsoft open sourced an inference framework that runs a 100B parameter LLM on a single CPU. It's called BitNet. And it does what was supposed to be impossible. No GPU. No cloud. No $10K hardware setup. Just your laptop running a 100-billion parameter model at human reading speed. Here's how it works: Every other LLM stores weights in 32-bit or 16-bit floats. BitNet uses 1.58 bits. Weights are ternary just -1, 0, or +1. That's it. No floats. No expensive matrix math. Pure integer operations your CPU was already built for. The result: - 100B model runs on a single CPU at 5-7 tokens/second - 2.37x to 6.17x faster than llama.cpp on x86 - 82% lower energy consumption on x86 CPUs - 1.37x to 5.07x speedup on ARM (your MacBook) - Memory drops by 16-32x vs full-precision models The wildest part: Accuracy barely moves. BitNet b1.58 2B4T their flagship model was trained on 4 trillion tokens and benchmarks competitively against full-precision models of the same size. The quantization isn't destroying quality. It's just removing the bloat. What this actually means: - Run AI completely offline. Your data never leaves your machine - Deploy LLMs on phones, IoT devices, edge hardware - No more cloud API bills for inference - AI in regions with no reliable internet The model supports ARM and x86. Works on your MacBook, your Linux box, your Windows machine. 27.4K GitHub stars. 2.2K forks. Built by Microsoft Research. 100% Open Source. MIT License.
