Good afternoon! I asked Grok to create a simple tool to monitor the #Bitcoin mempool in real time and trigger an alert—via email or a Telegram message—whenever a transaction involving a registered address appears. We got this done in less than 30 minutes. The version is rudimentary, but it works. It might not be enough to reverse an unauthorized movement of funds from an account, but what steps to take in such a scenario is up to each individual to decide. The code, written in Python, runs locally alongside either a pruned or a full node. To test it, I randomly grabbed an address from a transaction in the mempool, registered it in the application, and ran a check. It worked! Mission accomplished. I know it could be significantly improved, so feel free to modify it however you see fit. It’s hard to believe that a primitive solution like this isn’t already being used by companies that expose themselves to unnecessary risks. The interface isn’t pretty, but it gets the job done.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Boa tarde! Pedi ao grok que criasse uma ferramenta simples para monitorar a mempool do #bitcoin em tempo real e disparasse alerta via email ou msg via telegram caso entrasse alguma transação com o(s) endereço(s) cadastrado(s). Fizemos isso em menos de 30 minutos. A versão é rudimentar mas funciona. Talvez seja inútil para reverter eventual movimentação não autorizada na conta, mas o que fazer, se for o caso, deixo a critério de cada um. O código escrito em python roda localmente junto com o node prunado ou full. Para testar copiei aleatoriamente um endereço de um bloco pendentes na mempool, cadastrei na página e pedi que ele fizesse a verficação. Funcionou! Missão cumprida. Sei que ele pode ser bastante aperfeiçoado, fiquem a vontade para modificar o que for necessário. Dificil acreditar que uma solução primitiva como essa não é utilizada por empresas que se expõe a riscos desnecessários. A interface não é bonita, mas funciona.

Um ótimo final de semana para todos!

GM! 🌅☕️🍳🥓Whenever a specialist tells you your problems have no solution, question things, study, learn, experiment, and step outside the protocol that condemns you. Sometimes, a small change in approach can significantly improve prospects that were previously deemed hopeless. I say this based solely on my own experience. There is still a long way to go, but at least now I feel I am heading in the right direction. #health

GM Woody! 🌅☕️🍳🥓🚀⚡️📈 Sometimes freedom makes us appear lonely, but that conclusion only matters when viewed from our own perspective. At times, the opinions of others do not aim to support our decisions. Abandoning our ideals due to the influence of others can compromise our freedom. We must always seek and preserve our freedom.

Genuinely curious. Why monero? I for maximum privacy and sovereignty I use on-chain, lightning, fediment and sometimes cashu. Can't you achieve all you want with btc?

GM! 🌅☕️🍳🥓In my 30 years of finance experience, one hard lesson i have learned is do not put all the eggs in only one basket. Yes, i prefer btc, i believe its a amazing asset, i work to spread its concept, but at this time, in the world i live, its not enough for me. In the last months, the price oscilation of Monero, give me an extra few hundred thousand satoshis. And in terms of privacy, Monero is a good option to me.
