forks flying in on this post.
lmao
lots of people sound like big blockers back in 2016/2017 the last two days
anyone get any info on opendimes if they were affected at all?
used them over the years to gift sats for weddings/graduations
havent seen much talk about them at all
you would think the manufacture of the software/hardware would be 'financially motivated' if not 'reputationally motivated'
this is the same old adage of blaming the money when a bank gets robbed, no its the institutions and software/hardware that are 'protecting' it.
Coldcards used to be standard, no way after this fiasco
reminds me of the bus stop analogy and visual tool that was popular pre 2020.
think they added eth crap to it as well so not gonna link.
but cool project!
soft - more 'strict' ruleset
hard - less 'strict' ruleset
is how i always remember them
nice concise post
they started their own media hosting website for documentaries that dont get hosted.
they had some guy sue the shit out of them and they raised over a 1M cuck bucks from the community to fight it, so they are using excess funds they dont need for defense to build out and host the website

honest question,
is this not an albeit shitty, but almost required step for merchants to get their hands on some and realize it not some ponzi scheme. i mean your comment makes me think of that shitty rap song.
0 to 100 real quick, real fucking quick.
without education about it, very few are gonna set up a personal wallet.
let alone a node to verify themselves.
i dont see the acceptance of bitcoin as payment going from where we are now, straight to self custody node running merchants (not in the US at least) without there being some complete failure of the current system, which as much as we would maybe like to see it happen, most likely wont happen anytime soon.
watch out for replay attacks if the fork doesnt have replay protection, like the upcoming ecash crap
why has no one mentioned this is their UMA product which touches fiat.
not defending spark, cause fuck them, but facts are facts.
kyc is not about hiding anything.
honeypots of information held by companies who dont actually care about their security/ their users private information.
aside from the honeypot of information just waiting to be leaked, you may have nothing to 'hide' TODAY, but laws change frequently and what is legal today maybe illegal in a few years.
try and think about the long term.
thats my mentality when it comes to KYC.
avoid when possible
less honeypots that include my info the less chances of it leaking.
