The discussion @dieguito had with his Bitcoin maxi friends:

Bitcoin can’t just be digital gold. It has to work for everyone.

That has been Rootstock’s mission from Day 1.

[Fairgate @FairGateLabs]

🚨 Supply-chain incident on npm targeting #crypto: packages contains obfuscated crypto-clipper code that intercepts browser fetch/XMLHttpRequest and common web3 wallet APIs to rewrite addresses and hijack transactions before signing.

@FloEshalomi Thank you for asking this important question. Her response wasn't clear, she only mentions maintaining the 5-year route for people already on dependant or family visas, but nothing about those on Skilled Worker visas. I’d be very interested to hear your view on that response.

[Inflection Point @BWInflection]

they call him the godfather of BTCFi.

built the longest-running bitcoin conference on earth.
helped bitcoin take root across 9 countries—and got a hall of fame badge for it.

@dieguito joins us in brooklyn | june 24–26

@vladcostea @VitalikButerin I’d spend part of the podcast diving deeper into his April 20th proposal to replace the EVM with RISC-V.

[Adrian Eidelman @aeidelman]

No Bitcoin layer provides the tooling ecosystem for developers that Rootstock does. Period.

[Raul @raullaprida]

@rootstock_io is the leading #Bitcoin Sidechain, with 80% of Bitcoin's hashrate merge mining it, and guess what, there's no need for a new coin to be minted.

@atomiqlabs Fully trustless or trust-minimised?

[shreemoy mishra @shreemoy]

Bitcoin L2s usually claim to "inherit" Bitcoin's security —but what does that mean? 🤔
Let's break it down for a few projects 🧵👇

[Raul @raullaprida]

Check how @bitvmx plans to give the option to use Schnorr signatures to provide the program input instead of Lamport one-time signatures

[Sergio Demian Lerner (sergio.lerner.rsk) @SDLerner]

STARKs on Bitcoin ?

Verify STARKs optimistically on Bitcoin with the new ESSPI protocol for @bitvmx. No soft forks.

Uses Schnorr signatures to provide the program input, no more Lamport OTS!

What a week, huh?... and it's only Wednesday.

[Raul @raullaprida]

@BitcoinLayers Can we name the projects claiming to be "trustless" instead of "trust-minimised"?

[LayerZero @LayerZero_Core]

🟧 LayerZero is live on @rootstock_io!

Rootstock, the Bitcoin DeFi hub, is now connected to over 100 chains via LayerZero.

With the launch of LayerZero, Rootstock has integrated the OFT Standard for $RIF and $rBTC, making asset transfers across chains simple.

[Raul @raullaprida]

@GoldenGatsby @tugcesmith @rootstock_io I need one! and another one but with the colours swapped.
