What's been going on with testnet recently? I explain my shenanigans in today's post. https://blog.lopp.net/griefing-bitcoin-testnet/
Great work! Was time for a reset! Signet and testnet don’t really achieve the same results, and for too long a testnet reset has been put off to push people down the signet route
Agreed, rough consensus is that each network is useful for different reasons.
burn it down raise it from the ashes in form of testnet4
Yeah. But can't you build it first then just let the legacy linger then languish?
I guess that's the end of my attempts to do the exact opposite 🙃 nostr:note154fktkfdycyyrntcw9qv8ry29mcjmmgxqwegvl6dkduehu49kresg60hss
If you need to laugh today, this is a good read. I had a small inkling that was going on based on previous posts from Lopp, but I didn't know it was this bad. Degens really out there trying to scam everyone they can any way they can. 😅 nostr:nevent1qqsymn4wmgcyjpp3gtg8c96wrg9ratp86qvlkr7ujj9sl5vttukl7gspvemhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0dec82c33vah8wurrw3jx2cesv9snqvrgveungmrkv9jxvar4xquxxcmn8ymrwdmdwgmnx6pev3j8vvn6wemnsen489ek6mt9wfe8z0mzwfhkzerrv9ehg0t5wf6k2q3q7u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrqxpqqqqqqzcwdnyf
You’re like “Enough tinkering. Bring your projects LIVE.” Lol
This was a great read. Thank you for the documentation and your work on this.
Nice readup but I think a lot of people (myself included) would be very happy if you stop fucking around with testnet.
It's called griefing for a reason 😏 The griefing is currently paused now that I have everyone's attention. Gird your loins, because the pause is only temporary!
Meanwhile I can't explain to people how to use some tools because testnet is broken and I'm not paying fees on mainet to explain it. So from now on if people need instructions on how to use a wallet, move funds offline, open a channel and so on pay me first.
