Nobody is celebrating Bitcoin Independence Day today, huh? Understandable, but sad. If I was a state attacker, thatās probably what Iād do to destroy moral. š¤

Do not sell your CC to this a-hole or anyone else. Or throw it away. It might be the only way to prove you held your coins in a law-suit.
Happy Bitcoin Independence Day! Do you even know what we celebrate today as a community? Do you care? Anyway, you may find this article enlightening and worthy of preserving in case the history revisionists try to bury it: https://braiins.com/blog/3-year-anniversary-bip148-uasf
Ocean mined block 110 themselves. Thatās poetic! š
Some even speculated that the bug was introduced when they close sourced the firmware after Foundation guys forked it off.

The attacker used RBF to steal the coins from CC users who were trying to move them off to a different address. I think a total of 34 bitcoin were stolen this way. So far. CC users are in a very bad place right now. They canāt export the bad seeds on another device. And they are at risk to move their UTXOs to another seed/device bc the attacker can intercept them with RBF while awaiting confirmation on chain.
Donāt know, will try to find
Sending you some funds, brb, stay safe
TL;DR: Peter RekTodd created both the problem and the solution. 1) technical advisor for CC since 2014 2) pushed for full RBF since 2013, now enabled by default on all nodes (usersā and minersā) 3) enabled (probably unwillingly) the full RBF attack exploited by the CC hacker and philosophically justified the solution for it (outbound services like Slipstream) 4) even if you disable RBF manually youāre still vulnerable to the attack because the whole network enforces it by default We should have ousted this FED at least 10 years ago! This human trash should be handcuffed along with NVK if you ask me.
