As I replied on Twitter, this really should be using hash chains:

My timelock scheme is particularly nice, as it provides an incentive for people to disclose the fastest performing hashing implementations.

See? I like when you have pertinent technical proposals, instead of all days warmongering bullshit posts.

I used your https://opentimestamps.org to record some personal data (as online notary) and I think is a great resource / service.

I know you are a smart guy with good technical knowledge, so keep that line and don't bother with other "agendas"...

You'll be happy to know I recently raised $40k, and just spent the first few thousand getting another truck for a unit near Kramatorsk, eastern Ukraine: https://x.com/i/status/2057396047085818015

(No, I didn't create this $LADA coin; some Solana degens did and forwarded me the earnings without asking me)

I'm looking into the possibility of using some of that money to buy specialty anti-drone ammo for them. I personally have seen FPV drones get shot down (including one I spotted). So I know that'll get put to good use defending Ukraine. PayPal won't let you fundraise for weapons or ammo...

You're just a nutjob who apparently can't understand that defending yourself from thieving, raping, murdering, invaders is a good thing. Fuck Russia.

FUCK THAT SHIT.
I really do not care about that. The whole Ukraine shit is a psyop. Please stop with this bullshit.

defending yourself from thieving, raping, murdering, invaders

they were poking the bear. That's it. So please gibe me a break with "defending from invaders". It doesn't work anymore.

Keep your posts about bitcoin technical and you will get my attention. Until then... fuck off with your CIA propaganda.

I REALLY DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT UKRAINE

Blah blah blah psyop blah blah.

I've spent multiple months of the past year in Ukraine; I saw first hand Russia trying to freeze the population to death this winter; I've made multiple trips to front line areas. One close enough that it wasn't safe to be outside due to Russian FPV drones.

Hell, while writing this I just had to leave the mall I'm in right now because of an air raid.... In fact, looks like something just got blown out of the sky a kilometer or two away. Heard an explosion and there's a small cloud of smoke left over.

I know damn well what's going on in Ukraine: a force of evil trying to take what isn't theirs.

Claiming they were "poking the bear" is just nonsense, apologizing for evil. Fortunately, Russia is losing.

Dear Peter,
I hope you will reconsider your position on the causes and consequences of the Ukraine war. John Mearsheimer (University of Chicago) argues that the US and Europe’s insistence on NATO expansion, particularly decisions that were made in 2008 as well as the 2014 colour revolution (coup d’Etat), are the root causes of this conflict. I recommend his Munk debate versus Harvard’s Michael Mcfaul (the Obama administration’s colour revolution expert).

I hope you appreciate that you are contributing towards prolonging this conflict rather than doing something to promote negotiations that will lead to peace. If that is your aim, I trust that you will do the honourable thing by putting yourself directly in harms way on the front lines rather than simply pushing other men into this never ending meatgrinder.

In my opinion, the fact that you are openly advertising your activities in Ukraine is incredibly short sighted.

again warmongering bullshit.
Please give me a break with your bullshit.

Russia is losing.

I don't give a shit either...
ALL WARS ARE BANKSTER WARS.

reply

...and again, this gets back to your insane belief that defending yourself is somehow "warmongering bullshit".

Russians are coming to Ukraine, trying to steal, rape, and murder. Friends of mine are helping stop that by killing those Russians. I'm helping them stay alive.

It's not hard. You're just fucked in the head with conspiratorial bullshit.

OMG I thought you still have some reasoning, but you are a full fucking CIA nutjob.-

Tell me, what exactly do you mean by me being a "CIA nutjob"?

In this method of yours, is there a predefined hash chain that needs to be solved in order until you reach the secret? Computational power reduces that time, doesn't it?

reply

Exactly.

The key is that the computation required is a strictly serial computation: each step has to be completed in a series, one after another.

Since clock speeds aren't increasing, we know that the minimum time the computation can be computed isn't going to be much lower than the time anyone can compute it with off the shelf hardware. Furthermore, in my scheme, if you do have a particularly fast computer you have an incentive (via Bitcoin txout bounties) to reveal that capability to the world.
