Plenty of experts profess “Bitcoin has no value!” but their lack of value perception doesn’t diminish our own. https://t.co/NHLRU1uPrX
@svnlyte Looks like the calculation link in that article is broken; see here: https://t.co/faZiii6skA
@svnlyte Because you have to get UTXOs first in order to open channels. Here’s some math: https://t.co/iOPMVgkLJX
Are there technically superior solutions to SegWit / Lightning? Sure, on paper. They tend to conveniently overlook the issue of deployment.
@AlpacaSW @AaronvanW @jgarzik That is one possible scenario, sure. But when you consider it a foregone conclusion b… https://t.co/jUqL4N8bZp
Fellow Bitcoiners: the assumption of bad faith does not embody the spirit of coopetition. It only leads to division.
@bascule Silly safety limits are limiting ICO success! https://t.co/3wEwMBOCNR
@benyoung @CodyBrown @coinbase @projectfi Read the article I linked above; you’ll see that new devices can be added to Authy accounts.
@AlpacaSW @AaronvanW @jgarzik “Out of scope” is technically accurate & honest - doesn’t mean it can’t still be addr… https://t.co/2p0CnzAlon
@CodyBrown @coinbase FYI Cody: avoid Authy - it’s still based on your phone number. Switch to @projectfi for a secure phone provider.
.@CodyBrown’s @coinbase account hack is frustrating b/c @coinbase blogged about phone porting attacks 8 months ago. https://t.co/tSFHMtr4Ll
@AlpacaSW @AaronvanW There was never any such fine print. Folks should stop putting words in @jgarzik’s mouth. https://t.co/B79owe9RRU

@meeDamian @ChristofferDG No clue. Supposedly we’ll know in a few years, right? 🤣
@ryne_miller @BitcoinsSG If you’re using bitcoin for timestamping purposes rather than exchange rate value, sure.
@PierreDePe @BitGo Yeah, I contacted them 6 months ago about that. Their recommendation was to “disable multi-device support.”

@Aamirmlatif It’s possible that other coins do well or even better than BTC, but no one knows the future. Don’t inv… https://t.co/Pll4bH3dwp
@Aamirmlatif It’s a tried and true strategy. Day trading is just a great way to lose money.
@Aamirmlatif On a long time frame, newcomers are still early adopters.

Unit bias is in effect. Suspect a non-trivial # of crypto newbies invest in alts simply b/c BTC is “too expensive.” https://t.co/QJ55gjDSVg
@ryne_miller In theory but not in practice due to fees. Divisibility doesn’t affect scarcity. Dividing gold bars in… https://t.co/NOTwCPgGmY
hudsonjameson Ethereum core devs are aware of the attempt to disrupt the Ethereum mainnet and are working on solutions.
@SonnyDunnington @BitGo No; Authy is based upon your phone number and thus is vulnerable to phone porting attacks.
@Yakherders @BitGo GA is great
Might be time to start shaming services that allow users to “protect” accounts w/phone number based 2FA. @BitGo removed option 7 months ago.
@richcollins @coindesk Thanks; fixed.
@L1AD @bendavenport @ARKblockchain So, by your logic, since you can’t economically subdivide a bitcoin into more th… https://t.co/5nUEwSMNe7
@L1AD @bendavenport @ARKblockchain Does subdividing gold bars into smaller and smaller portions make it “less scarce?”
@L1AD @ARKblockchain Indeed, though on the flip side due to rising fees it’s not viable to send less than ~0.0005 BTC
Folks who feel they missed the bitcoin boat are going to get a lesson in how small of a number 21,000,000 is relative to global population.
