@rektsorekt @1440000bytes @Conza to be clear, that’s not a dig at knots. there just aren’t many bitcoin developers with consistent proof of work and experience applying for grants to work on open source — there are very few
English
@rektsorekt @1440000bytes @Conza there haven’t been any knots applicants, at least not since late 2024 when I began reviewing them — the pledditor post is true

@JamieRobinson (If memory serves the price went up 27% in April 2024 for residential consumption over 300 kWH/month. Basically any A/C or typical N American appliances will push you well over that. I don’t know how the price has evolved since then.)

@JamieRobinson Generating your own power is the way to go imo. Freedom and self-sovereignty.

My residential power bills have increased 50% easily this year without usage changes. I think there is some type of penalty pricing over a threshold of kw/month. Anyone know?
On the flip side, my North Wine power bill is insanely small, a nod to commercial users maybe?

Excuse me @AESElSalvador, how has my energy bill jumped from usually being $100 to over $200? My neighbours bill has also jumped up massively? I was in Europe for 3 weeks during this period as well? This doenst make sense @nayibbukele this should be looked into

@1440000bytes @Conza Some of the board members have posted here on X that they are willing to support devs who propose to work on other clients like knots. OS currently funds a dev working on libbitcoin.

@1440000bytes There are specialized volunteers that review applications and grantee reports in each area.

Lower bandwidth.
Fewer stale shares.
Reduced latency.
More BTC.
Sovereign blocks.
1% fee.
Mining in the middle of nowhere never felt so good.
Big respect to @SanghaRenew for pushing the edges of what's possible. 🌊

A new chapter has just begun, and I am very happy to join the Btrust Board and work with so many brilliant people. I will continue doing what I have always done and what I have always believed in. Thank you all for the kind messages that I have received, can’t reply to everyone but thanks!

Last year, we put out a global call for new Btrust Board members as part of a planned governance transition. Today, we’re excited to welcome @laurenceaderemi, @nduku_jay, and @brrrunog as the new Btrust Board of Directors. After a thoughtful and rigorous selection process, they now assume full governance responsibilities as the inaugural board completes its mandate. Each brings deep experience across Bitcoin infrastructure, open‑source development, and energy systems, and will help guide Btrust’s mission to decentralize Bitcoin development and expand opportunities for builders across the Global South.

@thewilliamlehr @nayibbukele Nice, when did that change? Noticed that immigration stopped charging me on entry at the start of this year, continuing with several more entries since then.

The OG gringo card. Yet another genius move by the main man @nayibbukele. Free entry for gringos! Gracias Jefe 🙏

This is a living document that will evolve with the industry, the markets and the global economy.
AI is driving exponential change and El Salvador will be THE tech hub keeping pace with it.

@cryptoquick Very sorry to hear that, Hunter. Too much stuff like that happens. I hope you continue your work.

I used to defend this person until she convinced the CEO to put her in a position of power, and then I got fired and then my supervisor got fired, and my team got let go too
No hard feelings, but they will all be made irrelevant
The work will continue despite them

@jonatack @lukedewolf That would be amazing, @evoskuil says there's a spec already, haven't checked it out personally myself

Ordinals was and is an availability attack on Bitcoin. Their proliferation degraded the system for monetary users.
I'm glad to see their failure. I still worry about another frenzy in the future, though.

We're shutting down @ord_io and @ZapApp at the end of the month This really sucks because great people put a lot of hard work into these products, friends invested in me, our users believed in us, and I feel like I let everyone down In the end we ran out of money and don't see a path forward Despite that I'm still incredibly proud of everything that we did I'm proud that we organically built two respected crypto brands that never farmed anyone or launched a token I'm proud that we empowered over a million people to explore Ordinals inscriptions on Bitcoin I'm proud that we shipped an app that let anyone sign up and buy a Bitcoin memecoin in under 30 seconds (an experience that many considered impossible) For the past 3 years I've woken up every day excited to build in the Bitcoin ecosystem and feel blessed to have had that opportunity I never took a salary, have no regrets, and wouldn't trade the epic moments we had along the way for anything Thank you to my cofounder Zach, our team, our investors, and all of our users for being part of this journey with me 🧡
