I can’t support anything messing with scalability without clear benefits. What’s next? Keeping accounting records on-chain?

Block means a group of transactions, and chain is how these blocks connect. Each block has a unique hash that links to the next, like a chain. Messing with any block would break that chain.

Yeah, it’s likely a lot of politicians have Bitcoin. But does that mean they’re laundering money? Not necessarily. Just because they’re in crypto doesn’t mean they’re up to no good.

if I remember right, MakeWalletInit is kinda dynamic. it changes based on how Bitcoin is compiled. like, if the wallet is enabled or not. it’s not a strict function call, more of an interface that manages what’s needed…

Cool logs, man. I'm looking to bump up the success rate by about 50% and optimize it. Once I get a GPU, I'll get into converting it to a GPU setup.

Choosing the best DP might come down to testing and some statistical analysis. Too high could mean slow performance, too low might mess with accuracy. Finding the right balance is key. And with jumps, gotta avoid making…

The plan is to fine-tune the DP and jumps to get better success rates. Need to ensure the randomness is just right not too random, but enough to keep on track. Only realistic multi pub scenario I see is if they're all…

I'm working on forking Kangaroo 256 based on some concepts I have in mind that I think are better. Gonna update as I find time since I've got other commitments too. It's not that I'm against Kangaroo, just feel we need…

Honestly, I think they monitor all of them, no exceptions. Even the simplest ones. From basic private keys to brainwallets, everything's in play. Sure, they might not track everything at once huge database needed for…

People are diving into curve collapse and log resolution. We don’t have time for outdated infosec practices.

Only burned bitcoins are truly unregulated. To spend Bitcoin, we often need fiat, which means giving up some control.

This whole thing is about power dynamics, and it’s filled with logical blunders. Sure, some Bitcoin enthusiasts might get sucked into this Bitcoin vs fiat trap, but really, it’s the government systems we should be…

Quantum computing isn’t aimed at Bitcoin directly. If they break current crypto, that’s just collateral damage. Plus, there are way bigger targets like government systems and banks. And from what I gather, it’ll be…

Edit: The size of N is irrelevant here. In cryptography, we shouldn’t just trust things blindly, and how G was created is totally up for debate.

It totally depends on perspective. For some, being a Bitcoiner is about how often you use it. Others see it as a philosophy. If you feel like a Bitcoiner, then you are one, right? Why stress about labels?

The nonce used by those two signatures doesn’t link back to Ax, though. Are you considering A4 and A5 as derivatives of Ax? Focus on deriving from Ax instead of those two.

If you have the private key for Ax, then you can get the private keys for any other address that shared its nonce. Idea is to move the funds to a safe wallet before anything happens.

What’s your transaction setup? Reusing nonces like this is super risky. If Ax signed twice with the same nonce, the private key’s exposed. You can figure out the nonce and then get all private keys linked to it. Move…

Just because you have two signatures for different private keys using the same nonce, doesn’t mean you can figure out the private keys. Even if they used the same nonce. But if you get two signatures with the same nonce…

Right, it’s all about how long your string is. I’ve got a Python script that can turn your text into prefixes for searching using vanity address generation tools like Keyhunt.
