@ord_io @rodarmor @adam3us Maxi Madness was not a fluke.

BREAKING: The creator of Ordinals and Runes @rodarmor just brutally ratioed Blockstream CEO @adam3us

Today we’re publishing Brink's 2025 Engineering Impact Report covering the work of the eight Bitcoin Core engineers we funded last year and why we think this work is important.

Nice to see the CTV+CSFS thread included in this week’s Bitcoin Dev Project TLDR. What matters most to me is that experiment-driven discussion is making it into the conversation. @Bitcoin_Devs

Stash files, stack sats. Client-side encryption, Lightning/Cashu payments, no accounts. stashu.tech

The VTXO is how we return to early golden era Bitcoin where you go around making a bazillion low-fee transactions tipping people or buying meals and whatnot. Onboarding friends and family with little $20 chunks of sats while not worrying about all of the technical details. We overextended on adoption excitement in the past but with VTXOs the technology has caught up. I am bursting from the seams in bullishness at the opportunity we have.

Got annoyed by Tailscale requiring 3rd party accounts, so created Nostr VPN. It signals over nostr relays and creates a wireguard / boringtun network. Builds for Macos and Linux. Using it between my Macs, but haven't tested extensively yet.

After three breaches, I stopped trusting “we promise” apps and built @darkfolioapp--- a portfolio tracker that is verifiably private. Full story, screenshots, verification guide, and my $10k pledge to @torproject and @rstormsf's defense, in the article below. 👇

Bitcoin isn't just an asset; it's the TCP/IP of money. A neutral, global protocol that redefines value exchange. While others chase speed, Bitcoin builds a foundation. It's not about being faster; it's about being foundational. #Bitcoin #ProtocolRevolution

Little know fact: 7 Nations (that we know of) are now using Bitcoin mining on their national, or State, grid to counterbalance the variability of solar and wind generation This allows them to add more renewable energy to their grid than they otherwise would have been able

Bitcoin continues to prove to be an excellent example of the phrase "I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you."

With the recent @Parasite_wtf block achieved, im getting a ton of DM's on how to contribute hash. Within the @OrdinalMaxiBiz community, there is a dire need to find a reputable retailer that we can support in directing to point of sale purchases of additional miners. A community of 5K + individuals is looking for a retailer to trust, one that we can call home. Who will rise to the challenge? Simple guide below if you want to frontrun your competition and lock in the hearts of the movement 🔽

#Bitcoin is down to 12 gold coins. From ~40 coins just a year ago. Want it to start rising again? Join @bitcr_org to get it to be MoE. No MoE, no money. SoV is just an illusion.

Holy shit we did it LFG ⛏️⛏️⛏️

The bitcoin network is made of people. The nodes are just hardware we use to connect to one another.
