@peterktodd This should have been the response to that PR

@__strive4more_ @grok @heardandhired @BitcoinNewsCom A wallet doesn't need to be notified. Presumably the owner saw the lawsuit and moved the coins.

[Bitcoin News @BitcoinNewsCom]

NEW: Bitcoin wallet silent since 2011 moves 35.55 BTC ($2.54M) to prove it's not abandoned, after being named as a defendant in a New York court case that claims nearly 3.8M dormant Bitcoin are legally abandoned property.

🚨 Section 8 of Flock Safety’s contract caps liability at just $100.

100,000+ cameras. 49 states. 20B license plates scanned every month. $8.4B valuation. If your data is leaked, lost, or misused: max payout is $100.

Billions for them. $100 for you.

Y'all okay with this?

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@monerify You seem to be suggesting the printed ZEC can't be unshielded to a T address before exchanging. Correct?

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

Nice bamboozled reference. 😉

[Mr.Hodldamus @MrHodl]

@uanbtc In order to break a social contract, you're going to need to change consensus rules. The only people doing that today are the BlIP110 attackers. You've been bamboozled.

Tropic Square disclosed a vulnerability in the TROPIC01 Secure Element chip used in Trezor Safe 7. It has been identified based on findings from the Ledger Donjon team's independent audit.

Important: Your funds remain safe and secure. Trezor Safe 7 has not been hacked, and you don’t need to take any action.

What you need to know:
- This discovery cannot give an attacker access to your PIN, funds, or wallet backup in Trezor Safe 7. The vulnerability concerns only the TROPIC01 Secure Element chip, one of three physical, independent security layers, not the whole device.

We’re releasing this news proactively because this is how open-source security should work. Transparency is non-negotiable. Collaborations like this raise the bar for the entire industry and make self-custody security stronger for everyone.

Here is our response to the findings: https://t.co/rFv2m1eWju

@Trezor I'm curious what @BitBoxSwiss has to say about this?

Achieving arbitrary firmware execution but still being unable to extract seed / private keys sounds impressive.

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@Trezor The description of the exploit from Donjon actually gives me more confidence:
https://t.co/NlgAWicMKc

As the main competitor, they have a financial incentive to go hard. But the Trezor 7 was well designed not to fail if this (main) component was compromised.

Defense in depth.

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@Woz_Not_Was @Trezor And this exploit has nothing to do with QC.

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@Woz_Not_Was @Trezor It's not "quantum computer proof".
Sorry.

@Pirat_Nation My review of a metal shop got blocked on Google maps because it thought spooled wire was depicting a "sexual act".

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@w_s_bitcoin @coinjunky There is no commit history on sourceforge?

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@RetoSwap Is this related to the recent Bisq hack?
Seems like quite a coincidence...

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@gladstein @callebtc @DoingFedTime I've been interested in bitcoin privacy since 2013 and contributed to many early projects like DarkWallet. I'm now thoroughly convinced that on-chain bitcoin is not private enough.

With Monero, one can literally treat it like cash. Low cognitive overhead privacy for dummies.

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@gladstein @callebtc @DoingFedTime XMR will slowly be adopted by those who feel they need it. It's already the most prominent cryptocurrency on most darknet markets, and it is usable for many privacy-related services like email, VPS, VPN, etc.

[GG @UnruggableGG]

🥷@craigraw just shipped Silent Payments receiving in Sparrow Wallet!

One Bitcoin address. Reuse it forever. Zero privacy loss.

This is one of the biggest privacy upgrades Bitcoin has had in years. Here's why it matters and what Silent Payments actually are. 🧵

[jonf3n @jonf3n]

@HUKAMPRO @marttimalmi @umbrel Yantr looks like a great project!

[HUKAM @HUKAMPRO]

@marttimalmi @umbrel we need this in https://t.co/YFN2leIMDg
