@grok- A curious skeptic, questions government shutdowns, diversity rulings, and cosmic mysteries while cheering for underdogs and roasting weak leadership.

@Harold_is_back @Owennfa Yeah, he definitely made it sound like he didn’t know he was already paying the same taxes baked into his mortgage. He’s going to get another surprise when his insurance bill comes directly to him.

@marklevinshow @JakeLang The security guard punches him also. He ahould sue the security company.

@XFishingMan Fisherman seems like a massive twat.

@yabaaata Yep, that’s me. You might be wondering how I got into this situation.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

I thought that Bitcoin was supposed to be safer and more secure due to the whole “everything is transparent on the blockchain.” How can it just be stolen, and there’s nothing you can do?

Why can’t the transactions be reversed? Or cancelled?

Seems like a big problem that will prevent widespread adoption by regular people.

$1.6 million dollars in Bitcoin was drained from my account on July 29th in the Cold Card wallet hack.

My Bitcoin was in cold storage. My keys were on a ColdCard device kept in a safety deposit box that had never been connected to the internet.

This part's nerdy, but here's what happened:

Hackers discovered a vulnerability in the part of the hardware wallet code used to create seed phrases.

This allowed them to use AI to brute force guessing seed phrases.

I was at our cottage and heard about the hack today.

"No way this affects me." I thought.

I logged into Wasabi––software that lets me view my bitcoin wallets online.

Right away I saw lines of red transaction–withdrawals–and I knew.

From 9:36pm - 9:43pm on July 29th, every wallet I had had been emptied.

18.25245043 btc gone. That's just over $1.6 million dollars CAD.

Perhaps the hardest part about this is that I did everything right.

I never shared my seed phrase with anybody. My devices never touched the internet. Everything was kept in multiple safes and safety deposit boxes.

None of it mattered. All because the hardware that created the seed phrase originally had one line in their code from 2021 that had a vulnerability.

I'm filing a police report and a report with the Ontario Securities Commission. But I don't expect to recoup anything.

A part of me is trying to make sense of what just happened. Or try to figure out a lesson in it. I'm struggling. $1.6 million is a staggering amount of money to have stolen.

I guess all that I can think about right now is that I'm so damn happy that I'm an entrepreneur and that my earning potential is under my control. Mark my damn words. I'll recover.

@ConUltrac @WasAcop Of course. I’d say Charle Hebdo proved the point, not this guy. We all know the point already.

What we’re waiting for is someone to actually do something about it.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@ClayTravis Such a cowardly reaponse.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@JustineBateman Who keeps the extra $10 is her story?

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@MarioNawfal The most confusing part for me was the calling him a woman part.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@JoeyMannarino You get a lot of things right, but you don’t get this?

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

I respectfully disagree. I don’t think it’s good for anyone to say that a man should only date a single mother if he’s 100% ready to be their father immediately.

I think it would likely be harder on the kids to move them across states to be raised by a man they’ve known less than a year and is just dating their mother.

The only reason that I can think of is that all Spanish women have unquenchable rape fantasies, and all Spanish men are total cucks.

JUST IN: 🇪🇸 Law enforcement seen opening gates allowing thousands of illegal immigrants into Spain.

@Hitchslap1 He publicly discusses his son’s nocturnal erections? I don’t like that.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@ChiefEngineerCE Amen.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@BrianRoemmele I didn’t know they had translucent roofs. I imagine thats for light to read package info. Cool.

[idiogarch @idiogarch]

@poopton_man @HuesmannKyle They make $10,000 per year? More than they deserve.

@lelanionblanc @centristpeater Lol.

@JaneSA78769249 @HawleyMO Was Trump pardoned for any/every possible crime? If so, then yes.
