Honestly, this whitepaper is more like a markdown file. It doesn't really break down how to put Einstein-Tiling into practice on the Lightning Network. We need some solid algorithms or a step-by-step guide to make it…

Which programs are you trying to use that require the legacy provider? It is possible that they might be linked to a different version of OpenSSL. You can check on Linux which libraries a program is linked to by running…

Does openssl list -providers mention "OpenSSL Legacy Provider" somewhere? If not, then it appears that your configuration is not taking effect. Also you may have to restart system services or reboot the computer to…

True! Refurbished laptops can be a solid choice. They tend to be durable and often easier to fix compared to consumer models.

Yeah, running Bitcoin Core on limited storage does require some tweaks. Pruning helps by keeping only the latest blocks. Just set the limit in your bitcoin.conf.

This new law’s a bit confusing. Are they saying you can’t buy anything worth over $10K in crypto without giving personal info?

Why even bother with brain wallets in 2024? Frankly, I don’t see the point. There’s hardly any real educational value. Unless you’re looking to see how fast brainflayers can grab coins from a specific text. It's wild…

For some, free time is golden. Many people work hard without enjoying their time off. They end up missing out on family moments because they’re too busy working.

Just to clarify, this formula only applies to the 'p' value, right? What's the point of that? I mean, square roots don't really apply to points on the curve, only to numbers. Plus p is outside the range of scalars (1 to…

Wait, did you forget the password for your Bitcoin Core account? What exactly is the issue? Also, how complex was your password? Bitcoin Core uses PBKDF2 for hashing, which makes it quite difficult to crack, even with…

For real, just give it a rest. It’s like you’re chasing shadows. Satoshi picked a name that’s common and you’re grasping at straws.

Thanks for that link! Exactly what I needed. I think a site that tracks just the default frequency settings would work best, ya know? Trying to account for every possible tweak and config would just get messy.

I was thinking... wouldn't it be cool to have a constantly updated table that shows current-gen ASICs and USB miners? Like, it could list their electricity prices in cents per kWh and show how much profit they’d make…

True, EyeWallet does have the option for mnemonic backup. If anyone thinks iris alone is risky, they can view their mnemonic too. Plus, you can register multiple irises for the same wallet!

So let me get this straight, we’re making another testnet because testnet4 is being traded for real coins?

Cool that you’re making an iris wallet, but hear me out. It’d be smarter to make it a module! Like, plug into your computer or Bluetooth. Instead of trying to compete with wallets, partner with them to add iris…

That’s a good point but didn’t they just phase out Omni? Why go for stablecoins on Bitcoin now?

100% agree. Citrea folks seem shady. That co-founder has "ordinals maxi" in his bio... scamming vibes for sure. Nice that we’re removing OP_RETURN limits for them, really helping Bitcoin out...

Honestly, there’s no secret meaning. A lot of folks want changes but don’t pitch in. Core is strict about technical debt. Since it’s not a huge feature, as long as you’re willing to maintain it, it should be fine. Are…

Seems like you might’ve opened it in the wrong place? Classic first-timer slip? Here’s the actual PR link.
