Three years ago we attended @BTCPrague, jumping booth-to-booth to share our early prototype with friendly faces we'd only ever interacted with online.
This year we're back with the real thing: Frostsnap. Multisig made simple, with no single point of failure.
Is Strategy 'SBF on steroids'?
The fraud comparison doesn’t hold water, but concerns around concentration, custody, and STRC growth are still valid - PBJ breaks it down ↓

Today we're launching https://t.co/25RLaELMX4, a collaborative catalog of common pitfalls in MPC implementations and the cryptographic primitives they rely on.
Built with contributors from zkSecurity, Trail of Bits, Partisia, and Zama.
@bonomat you are onto something. The home is simply a giant QR code cube with an opendime at the center. The opendime is load bearing so if the hole is poked the whole building collapses within seconds. You must roll out like Indiana Jones.
lmao we have to justify owning BTC as a "way to buy a home" because buying a property is the only sacred financial interest an Australian can have without it being considered morally suspect. Australia is beyond help. It's over let's just HFSP.
The proposed changes to the CGT Discount kicks out the rungs of the asset-ladder most often used to buy a home.
With Members of ABIB opposed to the proposed changes, we've made a template and tool that you can use to let policymakers know what you think.
Make the message your own, and send it to your representative - the tool can help you find who that is.

Has anyone considered a mechanism of putting your BTC into your home. Like into the walls or whatever so that it contributes to the property appreciation of your main residence and is therefore CGT exempt.
Been using a lot of claude opus 4.7 and codex GPT-5.5 recently:
- Opus 4.7 is the best planner/executer model ever. GPT-5.5 creates never ending slop cycle on large ambitious plans.
- claude goes down nearly every day
- GPT 5.5 is faster and better at thinking about resolving difficult bugs.
- Both are good at reviewing -- claude takes about three times as long but finds about 30% more stuff.
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.
Nah. You are not hashing a computer is. It’s a theory about human labour and it’s a theory about price on average. It would say the amount of human labour that goes into producing the hash rate (including labour that went into capital equipment) will on average determine the price of that hash rate.
"The victim was reportedly followed before his vehicle was intercepted. He was allegedly held at a homestay in Melaka for four days.
The kidnappers allegedly demanded a ransom of 10 million Tether (USDT) from the victim's family"
Another one for @lopp

@sakak_musdom@lopp This is the first Korean on Korean diaspora attack I've got recorded.
> Authorities also managed to freeze and recover 2.46 million USDT of the ransom, worth approximately RM11.5 million.
It's amazing that this is a lesson that actually has to be learned.
Every hardware wallet asks you to trust it. This one says you don't have to. No secure element. No PIN. No airgap. All on purpose. I spent time with three of the new FrostSnap Bitcoin wallet devices to find out if the math actually backs up the claim. And I'll give you my honest take on whether I'd trust it with my own funds. @FrostsnapTech
