The difference between the fascio-communist regime in China and the fascio-corporatist regimes in the West is that due to their different historical development paths, in China the CCP ruling elite can dispense with formalities like a multi-party electoral system of representation, while the Western ruling elite has to run a show and be sneakier about the reality of its policies. But they're the same as far as material results.

No problem, they're tricky concepts to get your head around. Are you more of a visual learner?

You extract the public key and put that into wallet software.

Naming conventions are a bit conflated, unfortunately.

A hardware wallet is for storing a private key.
Wallet software is for managing addresses from your public key.

The wallet software can construct a transaction, as that knows all your addresses and as it has access to the blockchain, knows your balances so you don't create transactions for amounts you don't have. However, as it doesn't have the private keys, it cannot sign.

The hardware wallet can sign your transaction, but doesn't know your wallet balances, so it cannot verify if you have the balances to spend, only that you have the private key that can sign.

As the hardware wallet doesn't have internet, it cannot broadcast a signed transaction, that has to go back to the wallet software, so it can broadcast the signed transaction to the broader network.

For sending, you need both. For receiving, you only need the wallet software, as you're not signing anything.

A hot wallet is basically these things combined.


This is a playground where you can play around. If you click generate, you'll see a list of addresses, public keys and private keys at the bottom of the page. These are all generated from the same entropy, and you don't need anything else.

WRNING: do NOT use private keys based off of this website. This is a public website and you should never put private keys in there or use private keys generated from a public website.

https://iancoleman.io/bip39/


Very simplified, it takes your private key and a derivation path and hashes that. The derivation path is just a sequence of numbers, and if you increment one of those numbers, you get a new private key.

The fun bit is you can apply the same derivation path to the public key, and get a new address which belongs to the derived private key.

Therefore if you have the master private key on a separate device, and the master public key somewhere else, they don't need to communicate to get a new address to receive, which you have the private key to spend for offline.

This is very simplified, there's probably a few more steps involved, but this (I think) is the gist of why you don't need internet.


Because you don't want your private key to touch anything that's connected to the internet. Otherwise it's not cold storage.

Long post from John W. Ratcliff (jratcliff) on X, shamefully copied here:

We. Need. Better. Critics.

This post is going to be lengthy. I'm going to accurately and publicly criticize some of the problems with bitcoin.

I'm going to give our enemies the ammunition they need to intelligently critique bitcoin.

Because, so far, I'm seeing the exact opposite of intelligence. The stupidity of these criticisms literally takes the air out of your lungs.

* "Bitcoin is backed by the USD because people measure its value in USD." I really can't here. This is just too stupid to even respond to really. Do these people know that Europeans measure the value of bitcoin in Euros? That gold bugs measure the value of bitcoin in ounces of gold? All value is measured relative to the value of something else. Like, seriously. Stop. You are embarrassing yourself.

* "Bitcoin isn't scarce because you can subdivide it." It's hard to say if this one is more stupid than the first, they are kind of both equally moronic. I can't really respond to people who never learned fractions in grade school.

* “If the Internet went down bitcoin would be worthless”. I've got news for people. If the Internet goes down, your ATM isn’t going to work either. The entire world would melt down. In fact, with bitcoin, we at least have the possibility that we could switch to some kind of a mesh network and keep the thing going. While that is unlikely, at least the option exists. It isn’t a legitimate criticism because virtually all of the wealth in world today is *already* digital and electronic.

* "As the price of bitcoin rises, it will use so much energy it will destroy the planet." Now, with this one, you have to cut people some slack because it is a complex topic that actually requires a lot of research to more deeply understand. Bitcoin mining is only profitable with cheap energy; typically energy which is stranded or otherwise wasted. If you dam a river where no one lives, you are utilizing stranded energy. If you mine bitcoin with solar power that there is no other demand for, then you are doing nothing but helping finance clean energy.  Most energy is wasted. A hydroelectric dam produces electricity 24 hours a day seven days a week. It produces as much energy as the water flow will provide, whether there is a buyer for it or not. Where do people think that energy goes? Into a battery to be used at a later date? It goes nowhere. Unless you have a bitcoin miner willing to buy it; in which case that waste energy provides a 'buyer of last resort' for the power company which stabilizes the grid and funds more clean energy development.

* "Bitcoin is used only by criminals". I mean, seriously, the USD is used for most crimes, as everyone already knows. Also, if someone invented a money that couldn't also be used for 'illegal' things, could you even call it money? It wouldn't be money since it would lack the basic properties necessary for it to be money. Bitcoin is on a public ledger, it can easily be tracked by legal authorities, and is not particularly favored by criminals for that reason alone.

Ok, now that I have dispensed with the main idiotic criticisms of bitcoin, here are the real ones. Now even though I'm a big bitcoin fan boi, it's not so much that I can't look in the mirror and see that things are not perfect. Some of these issues can be solved or improved over time, but they are still that. Issues. Some are less a critique of the bitcoin network itself and more about events that could horrifically crash the market.

Ok, here are some, but not all, real criticisms of bitcoin.

* Bitcoin mining is too centralized. Sadly, this is a real and very legitimate concern and only getting worse by the day. We are seeing more and more hash power concentrated in a handful of mega-mining companies; most of whom are subject to regulatory capture. Many of them are already censoring transactions and the state can easily go after them. That doesn't mean that hash power wouldn't just move elsewhere (as it has in the past) but it would present challenges.

* The government can just declare bitcoin illegal. This is also a real and legitimate concern. While, yes, the government cannot actually stop the bitcoin network itself, what they can do is shut down all on-ramps and off-ramps and close all bitcoin investment vehicles like the ETFs. None of this would affect the bitcoin network directly itself, as it would continue to function, however, this would devastate the overall market. However, with the launch of the ETFs, bitcoin is so integrated into the mainstream that it appears increasingly unlikely that they could do this. Too many people have skin in the game. Also, every country would have to agree to do this for it to succeed, and that is unlikely Moreover, as value flows into the ETFs (which all have custodial control, full AML/KYC, and tax reporting) this actually greatly benefits the state. As the price of bitcoin increases due to the state’s rampant money printing, they get to keep raking value back out of it over, and over, and over again in the form of taxes. So, at this point, it would actually hurt the state to make it illegal. Better to keep it legal and try to capture it since the bulk of value will be stored in custodial accounts soon enough anyway.

* Bitcoin could have a bug. Yep. It's always possible. It has happened in the past. We could probably fix any bug that came along but, it wouldn't be pretty either. It would definitely greatly disrupt the market.

* Bitcoin keys are too easy to hack. This is also true. Bitcoin is a bearer asset protected only by a password. Surprisingly, securing a password is a lot harder than you might think. People have had their bitcoin stolen many times, often through some very nasty and ingenious scams. If Coinbase were to lose keys for all of the ETF money that they manage, it would be devastating. I know, some would say, ‘nah, bitcoin would work fine, it would just make it even more scarce’. Let’s be real. If something like that happened that would be the end of bitcoin as an investment vehicle.

* Bitcoin is too volatile to be used as a currency. This is 100% true. That doesn't mean that it will *always* be true, but it is certainly true today.

* Bitcoin can't be used for payments. This too is a valid criticism. It can't. Bitcoin, as it exists today, can only be used as a settlement layer. Now, that doesn't mean you can't use bitcoin for payments using other networks. Visa and Mastercard both process payments in nearly every currency on the planet. Should they choose to, they could add support for bitcoin easily. There are many other payment networks to choose from, so the fact that you can't execute payments directly on chain, while a legitimate concern, doesn't mean there aren’t other options; albeit with a different security model.

* Not everyone in the world can self-custody bitcoin. This too is a concern as well. Sadly, only the really wealthy will be able to do on-chain transactions some day in the future. Perhaps we will come up with some kind of side-chain or other secondary layer that, though it has a slightly different security model, is still sufficient for everyone in the world to at least have the option to self-custody

* Bitcoin could fracture. This is a legitimate concern. It has happened before (back during the blocksize wars) and it could definitely happen again. There continue to be debates about what features should or shouldn’t be added to bitcoin. We could easily get into a state where bitcoin splits into multiple versions creating complete market chaos.

Ok, I’ve gone on long enough here. There are more stupid takes on bitcoin than this, as there are more legitimate criticisms. But, we seriously need better, more educated critics, because the sheer stupidity we have seen lately is getting ridiculous.

This is a long form article, you can read it in https://habla.news/gek/1709278645804

There are moments when your body, your mind and your soul are all aching at the same time. When life switches you to a semi-automatic mode, it is far too easy to lose touch. Thankfully, I got reminded of the importance of being thankful.

Be. Thankful. In moments of pain, those words can appear sharp. You commute back ‘home’, alone through a sea of people, feeling disconnected from it all; Koyaanisqatsi keeps coming to mind. It sometime feels as if you were waiting for a train at the wrong platform, jumped aboard anyway and finally got off at the wrong station. Should you ‘thank’ anyone for it? If you sit there in sorrow, you are not going anywhere.

I went back to my little box in a box. You know, those boxes made of empty corridors and rows of closed doors; sounds of life but no real signs of it.  I jumped in the shower to try to wash some of the aches away, sooth the body, the mind and the soul. It is amazing what a warm shower can do.

As I felt the water dripping down my face, washing some of the tension away, those words came back to mind: be thankful. I closed my eyes and started tracing the path of the water in my mind.

As I saw the clean water coming up the pipes up to my floor, I was reminded of the plumbers  assembling the maze of water ducts and all the other builders that had worked months erecting the condominium from the dust.  I saw them work and joke, getting sad and happy, tired and then back to work; water flowing at the centre of it all

My mind continued into the pipes of the city’s network. For every place I would cross, water sanitation plants, large aqueducts and water dams, more and more people were coming to mind. All the builders, the engineers, the drivers moving everything around and all the roads they were using, all the trucks, the mechanics, the petrol stations, the refineries, more and more people all with their lives and their dreams, their aches and their sorrows.

My mind continued to the factories where all these items were constructed out of ingenuity, knowledge, sweat and raw materials. I ventured down more transport routes, trucks, cargos and planes,  and into the caves and mines where all these materials were extracted from the earth. More and more people were deserving my thanks. All the lives that helped my water along the way. In feeling thankful I was feeling connected. It is amazing what a warm shower can do.

Suddenly, my mind switched to an ancient Roman aqueduct under construction. I was being transported through time, countless people had slowly shaped the technological wonders that would one day combine into this warm water washing away a feeling of isolation. How many of them had failed? All of them had persevered.

Marvels of engineering and architecture, science and art.  Knowledge passed on and refined generation after generation. Networks of power and water, logistics and transports, companies, organisations, governments and tax payers.

I could attempt to use the little knowledge and skills I possess to carve myself some kind of a container, attempt to boil some water over a fire started with a couple of sticks and finally splash it over my head, but even then I would have to thank all the people that have passed that knowledge on to me, my parents, my teachers, my many mentors in real life and in the media. For every single piece of technology I use there is an unfathomable amount of people deserving my thanks. For every single skill that I possess there are generations and generations to whom I owe my gratefulness.

It is amazing what a warm shower can do. That simple daily moment is in itself a luxury, one of the most basic luxury I enjoy. We often take things for granted. Our expectations, our suffering, our definitions of fair, all impact on the way we look at life. I sometime forget about this lesson and let these feelings take over me again; disappointed, disconnected, isolated, at war. Judging people when I define them careless and lazy in my regard will only lead me to anger. However, even when they did not seem to care for me directly, so many were deserving my thanks. So after a bit of time and a few showers we can find it in ourselves to realise how interconnected we all are and find it in our hearts to be thankful.

When you walk back out of your little box, the sea of people is the same, your ego is not. It is amazing what a warm shower can do.

To all of you I say ‘thank you’, for the shower, and everything else.

Oh yeah, I know it's only a rough estimate and would have no predictive value. But I think it would be a nice metric, something like: at this pace exchanges will run out in ### days.


This feels more like price discovery of the dollar than price discovery of bitcoin.

GM TOUCH GRASS TODAY

https://m.primal.net/HfGc.png


If you’ve studied network effects you’ll know the first cohort to adopt a new network is massively influential on development, there’s a form of path dependence from the userbase which isn’t immediately obvious but becomes apparent over time. Think of things like zaps and how that directionally leads devs and subsequent use cases.

There are downsides to having Bitcoiners as your bootstrap but I reckon your about 1000x more likely to succeed with them as a cohort over some degens who are only there because their views and what they want to be social about is repugnant to the vast majority of other people.

Bitcoiners don’t HAVE to be here on nostr, they want to be here. At least devs know they have a low time preference user base who will put up with some rough edges if it means users can get outside “the system” and remain self-sovereign.

This is unlike the pedos and Nazis and furries who were forced to migrate elsewhere because other places didn’t want their message on their platforms. Those are fickle bootstrap cohorts who will move on to the next place that allows more extremism than now and won’t feed back to Devs what they need to grow the place.

In 10 years, with hindsight, this will appear obvious. It’s not obvious to most people today though. We are the lucky ones who get to see this thing from the beginning. nostr:note1q7ttle22uy70jh52pchp0pyk9du08y49n5zkrk2t6wel49py2lmsh6hjua

And make a valuation based on some attributes.

So you can put the inscription of the block for sale.

Bitcoin is money for enemies. The enemy used was thought to be terrorists. And because it can be used by enemies, it is non discriminatory. That's a strong point. Now, it can also be used for peddling feline imagery. Different enemy, slightly less violent, but same usage. Still a strong point.

It did make enough for channel management, until now. This was > 1 month of routing fees.


It's a rented bare-metal server, so no. But the server is paid for by the other stuff that runs on there. I wouldn't recommend running a routing node from home, unless you have proper hardware and very solid power and internet.

The node started on an Odroid HC1, then an Odroid HC4 and when that started to hit the CPU limit, to a proper bare-metal server.

Routing node indeed. It can be uncle Jim for incoming, but outgoing channels should have at least some traffic. I'll do spring cleaning once or twice a year to close channels I opened that don't move. I don't close incoming channels, unless offline for a long time.


Yes. I used to do it once a month or so, to reopen force closed channels and add some new nodes. Was a while ago though.


Just paid 66k sats to open 17 channels.

Story: My first experience with using Lightning was during a meetup. I left the meeting with some equipment and a RoninDojo themed seed phrase paper.

That day after, my bank account was locked for 24 hours because of a supposed fraud check. I have a really bad habit of this and it was the 5th time that year. Because of the living situation I had kept no cash.

I ended up using the sats I had left to buy my food that day and the next thanks to buying a voucher from Bitrefill. If you don't feel like you need it, then you just haven't had the moment when you will yet.

Greg Maxwell makes a compelling argument that the 26.9 BTC sent to the Genesis reward address is Calvin Ayre forcing Craig Wright to either prove he is Satoshi or short circuit the COPA case before Craig loses in a more expensive manner.

Facts:

* Calvin Ayre has publicly and privately stated he believes Craig Wright is Satoshi, but that Craig is too autisticly obsessed with proving it "his way" to use the Genesis block private key, which is what Calvin wants Craig to do.

* Craig Wright owes the court £900,000 or, roughly, 26.9 BTC at the time the Satoshi address was recently funded

* Craig Wright does not fund his own legal adventurism -- he relies on Calvin

Perfect Days


Over the last few months it feels the bitcoin community has gotten more and more jaded on lightning. To be honest, this is for good reason, back in 2017 we were promised a decentralized payment network that would always have cheap payments and everyone would be able to run their own node. Nowadays, the average lightning user actually isn't using lightning, they are just using a custodial wallet and the few of that do run lightning nodes often find it a burdensome task. For us at Mutiny Wallet, we are trying to make this better by creating a lightweight self-custodial wallet and in my opinion we have been executing on that dream fairly well. In this post, I'll analyze these issues and present a new way to view lightning and what that means for bitcoin going forward.

First and foremost one of the hardest UX challenges of lightning is channel liquidity. No other payment system has these problems today besides lightning so this often confuses lots of users. To make matters worse, there aren't any practical hacks that we can do to get around this. Muun Wallet used an on-chain wallet + submarine swaps to get around the channel liquidity problem, this worked very well until fees went up and everyone realized it wasn't actually a lightning wallet. The better solution is JIT liquidity like we do in Mutiny or splicing like that is done in Phoenix. These solutions abstract some of it away but not enough, we often get support questions confused on why some payments have fees and others do not. The fact is channel liquidity is not a usable UX for most end users.

The other major pain point of lightning is the offline receive problem. Inherently, you must be online with your private keys to sign and claim a payment. There is technically an ongoing spec proposal to be able to work around this (essentially creating a notification system of when people are online to receive payments), but it doesn't solve the fundamental problem and still has limitations. There has been a few attempts to get around this, most notably was Zeus Pay lightning addresses. These essentially worked by just creating stuck payments and waited for the user to come online to claim, this caused a ton of problems for people and even forced us at Mutiny to block users from paying them because it caused so many force closures. This is a hard problem because the entire rest of the bitcoin/crypto ecosystem works by just copy-paste an address and you can send to it whenever, there isn't caveats around asking your friend to open their wallet. This is further exacerbated by things like lightning address that requires a webserver to even get an invoice in the first place.

Channel liquidity and offline receives in my opinion are the two most obvious reasons why self-custodial lightning is not popular. When most users hear about any of these, they just think screw that and move to a custodial wallet because it is so much easier. If these were our only two problems, I think self-custodial lightning would be fine, it may never be the predominant way people use lightning, but we could get the UX good enough that we have a significant portion of people using lightning in a sovereign way. However, there are more problems under the surface.

Channel liquidity is a problem, but it is also deceptive. When you have 100k sats of inbound liquidity you would think you could receive up to 100k sats, but this isn't the case, often you can't actually receive any. This is because of on-chain fees, when a payment is being made in lightning you are creating pre-signed transactions that have outputs for every in-flight payment, these outputs cost potential on-chain fees and the high on-chain fees go the more it eats into your liquidity. After we've solved most of our force close issues Mutiny this has been number one support request. Even if you do everything right, understand liquidity and have enough for your payment, sometimes it still won't work because on-chain fees are too high. This is always really discouraging because isn't the whole point of lightning to not have to
pay on-chain fees? Fundamentally, all current lightning channels could become entirely useless if on-chain fees went high enough because a single payment would require too many reserves. Obviously this is hyperbolic, but I hope I am getting the point across that on-chain fees don't just effect the opening and closing costs of channels, even if you are a diligent node runner that only opens channels when fees are low, that is not enough, your channels need to be large enough to pay for the on-chain fees of each HTLC at any future on-chain fee rate. As on-chain fees go up and up this problem will only get worse.

The proposed solution to these reserve issues are things like anchor channels, package relay, ephemeral anchors, etc. These are all well and good but kind of just mask the problem. They do solve it so the fee reserve can be much lower and possibly zero, however with the tradeoff that you need on-chain funds available to fee-bump your force closes so they can actually get into a block. This again breaks the UX for self-custodial users because they _have_ hold on-chain funds alongside their lightning funds so they can do those on-chain fee bumps. The size requirements for their on-chain funds is still dynamically based on how high on-chain fees can spike. Solutions for this can include having someone else bump your transaction fees but this brings basically a trusted 3rd party into the mix and isn't ideal.

When you lay out all the different tradeoffs a lightning node needs to make, especially in a high fee environment, it makes me think, what are we doing here, are we going down the wrong path? Lightning is still fundamentally a fantastic payment protocol but its limitation is that it requires _scale_. Basically every problem I've outlined goes away when you have a large lightning node with lots of liquidity and high uptime so many we should optimize for that. The market has been telling us this for years already, +90% of lightning users are using custodial wallets because it works so much better at scale. So how can we use large scale lightning nodes without custodial wallets?

Combining existing large scale lightning infrastructure with self-custodial solutions sadly, isn't totally possible. The only real way to do that as of now is Muun Wallet which as we talked about earlier, doesn't really solve the problem because everything is just an on-chain transaction. However, Muun was onto something. The architecture of having a simpler protocol interface with lightning is genius and gives us the best of both worlds. We can make fast cheap payments and let the big boys collect fees for running the lightning node. Aqua Wallet just launched which is essentially a Muun Wallet but on top of Liquid, this is a good bandaid fix but doesn't get to the root of the problem.

Before we go further we should take a step back and break down what problems we are trying to solve. Bitcoin has a fundamental scaling limitation through the block size, if we could make infinite, then we wouldn't necessarily need any layer 2s because we could just make on-chain payments. However, we live in the real world and have a 1mb block size limit, and this limits the number of transactions we can make on-chain. Lightning is a huge improvement to bitcoin because we don't need to put _every_ transaction on-chain, we just need to open a channel and can make seemingly countless payments. So why isn't lightning the silver bullet? Lightning lets us move payments off-chain but what it doesn't do is let us move ownership off-chain. Fundamentally lightning still relies on that, at the end of the day, a utxo goes to single user. So even if every on-chain transaction was a lightning channel, we still run into the limit of how many people can actually own those channels. What we need is another layer 2 that can scale utxo ownership and caninterop with lightning, that way we have a way to scale ownership combined with scaling payments.

So how do we scale ownership? Simply put, the answer today is custody, whether that is pure custodial like a Wallet of Satoshi or in the grey area like fedimints and liquid, the only way to do it today is through custody or federated bridges. In bitcoin, the only way to delegate ownership of a utxo to multiple parties is through multisig, however, that requires every user to be online when anyone wants to transact, and when you take go down this path far enough you end up just reinventing lightning.

Are we doomed then? Is there no way to scale bitcoin in a self-sovereign way? Luckily, the answer is no, but we need some soft-forks. Covenants are the way to scale bitcoin ownership. There are a bunch of covenant proposals but at their core what they propose to do is to add a way, so you can have a bitcoin address that limits where and how the coins in it can be spent. This can seem scary, but we already have these in bitcoin today, OP_CTLV (Check LockTime Verify), which was soft forked in 2016, only allows you to spend from a bitcoin address if the transaction has a given locktime, this lets you gate _when_ a utxo can be spent. What the current covenant proposals do is let you gate _where_ a utxo can be spent. With that simple primitive many different protocols can be built that allow for scaling ownership.

There are a lot of current covenant proposals, the main ones being: OP_CTV, OP_VAULT, OP_CSFS, OP_TXHASH, OP_CAT, and APO. They all have different functionality and tradeoffs but in my opinion we should be looking towards activating a form of covenants because otherwise we will likely be moving towards a future of less sovereign bitcoin users.

The future is not bleak however, even without covenants we can still scale bitcoin for the world, just not in the ideal way. At Mutiny, we are full steam ahead on implementing fedimint into the wallet, in my opinion (and the rest of the team's) it looks like the best current scaling solution for bitcoin. Fedimints give us the ability to dynamically share ownership over a group of utxos and is able to interop with lightning through gateways. It is the pinnacle of the scaling dream for bitcoin with current technology and I can't wait to help make it reality while we can.

Nothing is priced in. You can only price something in with bitcoin if you purchase as much as you can. If everyone has done this, then it's priced in.

But if you think bitcoin is the exit, pricing in is not even possible as you will not have a sell price at all. Unless it's infinity.
