"runs" it's the new "steady lads..."

Keep in mind that just because you are a maxi who self custodies, and consumes all the btc content, doesn't automatically makes you an expert about securing your family and friends btc, you are just passing information that you learned from the community, if even btc OGs and coders got blindsided by this, how can you assure your family and friend that your setup for them is solid? Just be transparent about what you know, the options, the pros and cons of self custody and let people choose their path. Not everyone is revolution material.

Bitcoiners now texting their normie friend that they got into Bitcoin and self custody to help the revolution, that they need to buy casino grade dices write 0 and 1s in a completely airgapped device with immutable Linux distro to calculate the seed words, add a passphrase, do this 3 times for a multisig back all up and distribute them geographically, if the normie complains tell him that if he could manage to learn to drive he got this, if along the way somehow he lost the coins at least he died on the hill we wanted it was like a true bitcoiners and it was for the greater good.

Since anyone can do the same hack, people could try to hack before the bad guys to keep the funds safe and return them to the owners.

I stopped advising people to self custody, it's a lot of responsibility, if something happens to their funds its on you, what i do is just explain the options and tradeoffs. Self custody is hard, don't try to fool people, for most people having the coins on an exchange is still the best option.

dont know why op_vault is not implemented.

who?

Looks like we just had our bear market personality sacrifice.

we need better tools to self custody. Things like op_vault maybe could help, maybe covenants idk.

Make legacy bitcoin payments great again, pre segwit, pay full price, take more block space by tx, blocks will be 1MB again and will outbid spam.

Drop Core. Let them be at an empty table.

Bitcoiners need to dump Core. Decentralize node implementations. Get the economic majority, fuck suitcoiners and exchanges, build circular economies, and decentralize hashrate. All this before it's too late.

I agree, but I won't force people to self custody just because I think it's the best option, it has to be their decision and if they are comfortable, it's not my money, also, bitcoin can't be used as money if people loose it all, the space is still very young and just waiting for better solutions to come up can be ok.

or Nostr.

True. At this point i I would like 110 to go forward just to see Core shit themselfs.

I think protocol allows you to do whatever you want.

yeah client maintenance is a problem.

we are here. There is no "correct" feed, clients will have differences in feeds, and can probably miss to fetch some notes, some clients are better than others on that regard but Nostr is a bit harder to get all the data and knowing you really got all the data. Pubky is model actually better in this regard imo.

nah. Current knots percentage represents well the ammount of people clearly against Core actions, many didn't agree but just didn't upgrade. knots reaching about 20% of the nodes is already huge. Even without 110 I think it would still be in this plateau. But over time Core will loose more market share.
