☀️Good Morning, Bitcoin - Wednesday, September 4th, 2024
GM! It is Wednesday, September 4th, 2024, and if you're looking to get irrationally angry about something trivial and waste a couple of productive hours, you're in the wrong place. Here's your daily No Bullshit GM report.
https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/gm-2024-09-04/
Older YubiKeys Vulnerable to Sophisticated Cloning Attacks - Report
- The attack requires $11,000 in equipment and advanced electrical and cryptographic knowledge, likely limiting it to nation-states or similar entities in targeted scenarios. The risk of widespread attacks is extremely low.
- YubiKeys with firmware before version 5.7 (released in May with a custom cryptolibrary) are vulnerable. Firmware updates aren't possible, so affected YubiKeys remain permanently at risk.

Strike Now Supports Sending Payments to BOLT 12 Offers
"Whilst we have successfully achieved our goal of enabling BOLT 12 payments from Strike, our initial integration only supports a basic Offer payment flow. However, it paves the way for exciting and more advanced BOLT 12 features over time."

https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/core-lightning-v24-08/
Soft-Fork/Covenant Dependent Layer 2 Review - Report
- "Our goal here is to do an overview of all these proposals, figure out what technical patterns they share, figure out what kinds of new opcodes and other soft fork upgrades they need to function, and create a comparison table of how all the parts fit together."
- "Along the way we’ll also define what an L2 protocol actually is, what kind of scaling Lightning is already capable of, and get an understanding of what improvements we need to do to mempools to achieve all this."

☕ Good Morning, Bitcoin - Monday, September 2nd, 2024
GM. It's Monday, September 2nd, 2024, and here's your first autumn No Bullshit GM report with the latest in Bitcoin and freedom tech.
https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/gm-2024-09-02/
GM Martin, appreciate your support and kind words.
We need to apply with OpenSats first to be eligible, and that is something we're considering. The long-term goal will remain to make No Bullshit Bitcoin self-sustainable and hopefully well get there as the ecosystem grows.
⌛Block 859417: Important News of the Week
Here goes another week. No Bullshit Bitcoin raised a total of 479,438 sats (~$278) in August, which is below what we've seen in recent months. The project raised 878,991 sats (~$512) in June and 690,106 sats (~$402) in July. These were the best months this year so far.
We've seen a notable uptick in our newsletter subscribers since the launch of GM Report, and Nostr has grown to be our biggest social media channel.
Our fundraising campaign that we launched in June with a goal of raising 1 BTC to become a fully-fledged news desk seems to have run out of steam, but we're not ready to hang up our sneakers just yet.
Remaining a publication operating solely on the Bitcoin standard is of critical importance to our reporting. No-strings-attached donations allow us to remain impartial and focus on serving the reader. Until the end of the year, we'll be looking into additional support for the project, as well as how to involve more people, including contributors.
Huge shoutout to our top supporters. Onward 🫡

Pavel Durov Released on €5M Bail, Won't Be Allowed to Leave France
- "The 39-year-old billionaire’s case is an unprecedented test of the power of governments over multinational tech companies operating under widely varying laws around the world. Durov’s Telegram is unusual for being run from a nonaligned Middle Eastern country, the United Arab Emirates, and for declaring that it shares no information with authorities anywhere about messages or activities on the site."
- It is absurd to suggest Durov could be implicated in any crime committed on the app, Durov’s lawyer, David-Olivier Kaminski, told the AFP news agency, adding: "Telegram complies in all respects with European rules concerning digital technology."
