My impression would be that those people tend to prefer USDT or similar rather than bitcoin. How did you pull it off?

Then it should be OK.

I'm tired of that and of people using their mobile phone on hands free. I don't have an answer to your question though.

I hope someone has an answer on how to ask them to turn it off and succeed.

Sending them together is the highest privacy risk. Don't do that.

Don't mix the dust UTXOs that you have received in different addresses. Sending together all the dust received would signal that those addresses belong to the same person.

Is it open source? Where is the source code?

Is it possible to sign in with a nostr extension or other method (without having to paste the nsec or seed)?

Yesterday it was discovered that their "self-custodial" wallet was sending the seed phrase to their servers.

https://kek.lol/research/appstore-wallets/

Wallet login POSTs the twelve words to /auth. Public GitHub does the same. The UI says the seed never leaves. Update: developers fixed it

Swiss Bitcoin Pay v2.6.4 (build 468) is a React Native / Hermes merchant checkout app with an embedded local Bitcoin wallet creation flow. Static analysis of the decompiled main.jsbundle shows that when a user completes wallet signup/login, the app POSTs the full BIP39 mnemonic (words) to https://api.swiss-bitcoin-pay.ch/auth via onAuthLogin. This directly contradicts in-app copy stating the seed phrase is generated locally and never sent to servers. Key generation itself uses crypto.randomBytes / getRandomValues (not weak PRNG). Secondary notes: mnemonic also persisted in AsyncStorage, Sentry enabled, TLS pinning on the API domain.

Findings

• Mnemonic words POSTed to /auth on wallet login
• UI claims seed never sent — contradicts /auth behavior

Now they say they have likely been hacked without further explanation. 🤔

Bitcoin: un tablón de anuncios electrónico peer-to-peer.

Misión lograda. 👏

That was fast.

They might just as well rename them to CIP (Core Improvement Proposals).

The article is behind a wall. How are we supposed to read it?

I don't like that, while you say many truths, you are misleading readers into thinking that bitcoin is an "asset" or "pristine collateral". That's still fiat mindset.

Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system for saving, spending and earning. It's not an asset (it doesn't produce anything and doesn't give "yield") and it's not intended to be used as collateral to borrow fiat and thus perpetuate the debt/slavery system.

I would expect that wherever you live there would be on BTC Map a hotspot with hundreds/thousands of merchants already accepting bitcoin. But I don't see it.

I see you've edited the post. I don't "cash out", but I need to eat and it's very difficult to find restaurants or supermarkets that accept bitcoin. I'm sorry (not sorry) that bothers you. And I don't want to spend the rest of my life stuck in a shithole to avoid touching fiat. That's what they want, that we stay put like in an open air prison. You do you. Nobody is going to see things exactly as you do.

It's also a fact that there is a thriving p2p market for ATM withdrawals in Spain on lnp2pBot and Mostro. Bit2me is a regulated exchange, so of course they won't allow KYC-less p2p trade.

I think this is different. I bet the bit2me system required to do KYC (to have a bit2me account). This is peer to peer market without KYC.

It helps both the person who has fiat and wants to obtain bitcoin, and the person who is already bitcoinized but needs fiat cash to pay for stuff (to vendors that don't accept bitcoin).

If asking a friend to pay your fiat purchases/bills in exchange for bitcoin is OK, I don't see how this is bad. It's the same but at scale.

I've tried personally in Poland (BitBlik, same app) and I find it great.

Nice work! I love the design. I would love if you can add a way to filter the offers (and save the selected filters in a cookie) and to make it clear which offers are buying or selling bitcoin (or add a filter "I want to buy/sell"), as well as a clickable link to each offer on its own platform.

"Don't Be Evil" 😅

How long would it take to break that same 15-bit EC key using a typical desktop computer?

I find that since these changes, SN has become toxic. User against user, witch hunts... Personally I don't want to engage nor up vote, because what's the point of being at war?

The owners are probably collecting more money from the down votes, but I don't think it's healthy in the long term.

Every single one of your objections are addressed in the book, one by one. Maybe you should read it. Even the "human condition" objection is addressed.

It seems you are getting the idea that I am suggesting parents should not set limits or let children be reckless.

I don't want to have a culture where child abuse or neglect (be it psychological or physical) is normalized, especially among bitcoiners.
