is anyone else taking note of how much traffic on Liquid confidential? Block for block, Liquid has more confidential transactions than Zcash.

There is no concrete post-quantum signature scheme for Bitcoin today. But over the last year @blksresearch has been working on exactly this. Director Jonas Nick (@n1ckler) lays out the proposal: OP_CHECKSHRINCS, a hash-based signature opcode for post-quantum Bitcoin.

@DNodeCapital @tari I hope it works out for you. 100,000 XTM for 7 members is very small considering that nearly 3 billion XTM in pre-mine is reserved for Protocol, Infrastructure and Grants and Contributors

@babysolo_ Good article. I like the idea of FCMP++ but I feel like they are rushing it into existence. I hope they run longer tests. There also is no mention of how and when wallets are expected to upgrade

If you've heard of Simplicity (the Bitcoin/Liquid smart-contract language) and bounced off the paper, awesome-simplicity is the map: compilers, SDKs, wallets, mainnet transactions, and the research that got us here. github.com/stringhandler/…

Read the Review Draft here: github.com/BitcoinWorldTr… We are moving from verifying transaction correctness to deriving transaction necessity. No consensus changes required. The Bitmachine is alive

Getting tired of AI always being right

Just released asdf-simc — an asdf plugin for managing SimplicityHL compiler versions. If you're building Bitcoin/Elements smart contracts with Simplicity, this makes switching compiler versions dead simple. github.com/stringhandler/…

Hot take: AI generated PRs take long to review because the author is smarter than you. (and me)

Youtube's algo has taken me into the wild world of these #doc_bru_mentaries. Basically, ultra-high-quality, ultra serious topics like taxi mafia and the AWB, hosted by Capetonian bru's. It's wild but amazing youtube.com/watch?v=64ITVe…

Built a small tool for visualizing garbled circuits - paste a circuit, step through it gate by gate, see wire values update in real time. Runs entirely in the browser via Rust + WASM. Would love feedback from anyone working in MPC / crypto engineering: stringhandler.github.io/garbled-circui… #MPC #GarbledCircuits #Rust #WASM

"Great question" is the new em dash. Don't forget to delete it. 🤣

I was over explaining (hu-man-splaining, if you will) to Claude in a prompt, and then I thought, it's actually smart enough to know what I mean. If that's not a sign of real intelligence, I don't know what is.

Just added 3 new projects to Awesome Simplicity: fadroma — cross-chain dApp framework with SimplicityHL integration simf — WASM SDK for compiling & running SimplicityHL contracts from JS/TS simf-app — escrow, vault & oracle demo on Elements The Simplicity ecosystem is growing 👀 github.com/stringhandler/…

"I want to average less than 5 deaths per game" "I want a 55% win rate on carry heroes" "I want 60 CS at 10 minutes on AM" DotaKeeper lets you track exactly these goals — automatically, after every game. No spreadsheets. No manual logging. #Dota2 #DotaKeeper #DotaImprovement

Little Dota coaching app I've been vibe coding in my spare time

Apparently there really are no dumb questions
