Quilts have been storytellers of history for generations. The making of a quilt has long been the marking of a special family event treasured from generation to generation.
Now Block Height Quilts usher in the recording of Bitcoin’s Block Height Timechain by quilting blocks that depict the block height of an important date and time in the lives of those that wish to record its importance. The photo in this posting is an Artistic Interpretation of Bitcoin’s Block Height…marking the founding of Block Height Quilts.
Each quilt or wall art hanging is unique, designed and quilted in fabrics of your choice, size and labeling. We can quilt a segment of your actual Block Height to match the full actual Block Height from a visualizer like mempool or bitfeed that would appear in a fabric label on the back of the ordered quilt. Labels will include the importance of the date and time such as the birth of a child, wedding, founding of a business, your first Bitcoin purchase, etc. Fabric labels can also include a photo of a newborn, wedding couples, logos, etc.
Block Height Quilts will work individually with each customer to create a very unique piece that expresses and records your Timechain memories.
@GhostOfStoneyX2 Congratulations, I love that birth story, same thing happened with my son (midwife and doula were late). If you'd like a block height quilt we'd be happy to make it for you. Blessings to the Bitson family!

@baroncoleman multi-signature (multisig) wallets were generally protected from this specific Coldcard hack, especially if properly configured.

I am getting a lot of questions about a Bitcoin multi-sig setup so I thought I'd create this quick guide.
This is now the gold standard for serious self custody.
Any single device can fail or have a flaw. Multi-sig removes the single point of failure.
1) The equipment:
Mix your hardware brands. A bug in one vendor's firmware cannot touch a setup where the other two keys come from different manufacturers.
-Trezor Safe 5 (wallet 1)
-Blockstream Jade (wallet 2)
-BitBox02 (wallet 3)
-Sparrow Wallet (desktop-only) as your coordinator
2) Generate your keys:
Set up all three devices completely independently. Secure the 12 or 24 word seed phrase for each. You now have three unrelated wallets.
3) Export the public keys:
Open Sparrow. Plug in each device and export its XPUB. XPUBs only read balances, they cannot move funds. This step is safe.
Make sure all three devices use the same script type, for example Native SegWit. Mixing address types across devices will cause errors in Sparrow.
4) Build the vault:
New Wallet, Multi-Signature 2-of-3. Import all three XPUBs. Sparrow merges them into a single vault.
Save and print the Wallet Configuration File. This is your blueprint and this is where people get caught out.
Two seeds spend your Bitcoin. Three XPUBs find it.
Bitcoin locks multi-sig funds to all three public keys simultaneously. Feed Sparrow only two XPUBs and it generates completely different addresses. Your balance shows zero. The coins are still there, you just cannot see them.
XPUBs cannot move your funds, but anyone holding them can see your entire balance and transaction history. Keep a copy of the blueprint wherever a seed lives, and store it with the same care.
5) Test it:
Send $5 to your new multi-sig address, then spend it back out. Sparrow will ask you to sign with any two devices.
If the spend works, your setup works. Do not skip this.
6) Separate your backups:
Never store them in the same place.
For example...
-Home: Seed 1 + blueprint
-Close relative's home: Seed 2 + blueprint
-Third location: Seed 3 + blueprint
You can also keep an extra copy of the blueprint on its own somewhere separate. It cannot spend anything by itself.
The absolute rule is that no single location should ever hold two seeds. Two seeds plus the blueprint is a spendable wallet and the blueprint is not secret enough to rely on as protection.
Why 2-of-3 works:
House burns down? Retrieve the other two seeds and recover everything.
One device compromised by a firmware flaw? Your Bitcoin is safe. They need two.
I have not covered passphrases to keep this simple.
I hope this helps. Happy to assist if anyone needs any support.
@neuralframes@suno@midjourney Thank you, I love the tools your making.
This project started with the @AdoptingBTC conference in El Salvador and Midjourney v1. Working with a group of collaborators, I generated a few hundred images for a project to monumentalize the origin story of Satoshi Nakamoto. I wrote a set of 12 poems defining the arc, and made music with Suno v1 using them as lyrics.
Since then I've done a few hundred watercolor paintings on the theme, and I've published an art book with the collection. https://t.co/WylR1HQPab . I've written chord sheets with lyrics and published a songbook suitable for playing on guitar. https://t.co/8shKT9g7Sf
I'm just now figuring out Neural Frames. For this video, the model is trained on ~150 of my paintings, and I used one of my watercolor paintings as a keyframe every 3-4 seconds.
I'm working on getting more control of the narrative. For now I'm happy that the visual themes are represented beautifully; I think it could work as a background visualization at a dance party.
The music is an abstract summary of the Bounty of Satoshi story arc. It uses the chorus from each song as verses. Its created by using four previous versions as "inspiration" in Suno v5

The man who introduced Trump to Melania, Paolo Zampolli, served on the board of the TerraMar Project, a “nonprofit” founded by Ghislaine Maxwell…
Zampolli now holds a U.S. diplomatic role under Trump.
Just another random coincidence, I’m sure.
