Lovely! I'm interested in using it to enable comments on a website I run. Have you thought about how to handle that? It would be really cool if I could get like a script tag or similar and give it a unique parameter, then embed the script tag at the bottom of a webpage and it would automatically create a comments section (with support for threading) based on this software.

I think using your Bitcoin to open Lightning channels, and then swapping your Lightning balance to onchain (e.g. via Boltz) is easier to do - and at least as private - as what you suggest

Doing that is a type of coinswap. And it is awesome, and it is great to see the number of providers grow. I think miners are a particularly apt group to be providers of such a service because they have always-on server, are used to bitcoin as income, and have a steady supply of new sats to treat as merchandise.

Buying hashrate as a form of coinjoin/coinswap xD

Yeah! But there are some sad aspects to this: (1) most of the rental sites do KYC on their users (2) I think 100% of them are custodial. It would be really cool to have a model where a rental website gets a "prepayment" that is locked in such a way that it only gets "unlocked" if they deliver the expected amount of hashrate -- e.g. if the coinbase you're searching for actually gets found.

So, the bip110 drama is over now, and a bunch of hashrate lost its buyers, making it available at lower prices. And Ocean still works. It's possible to trade in your old coins for some fresh coinbase outputs. Is anyone building tools to automate this and make it more accessible?

Most pro110 miners are renting rigs from sites that don't accept bip110 coins. Those pro110 miners can only keep mining if they maintain a reserve of non110 coins, to pay with those. That means the most economically significant pro110ers will still be supporting the non110 chain!

That’s awesome. Re mining, mining as a business will seem more and more ridiculous. Hopefully node will star also solo mine.

Here's something that interests me about the coldcard bug: it had 2 random number generators. The "bad" one was seeded with data including keypresses, the timestamp, and the device id. I can understand that, it's probably how I would seed it. What was the "good" one seeded with?

Why would there be a "fallback" number generator for something as crucial as that? Do all other HWW have this?
y² = x³ + 7 · 3w
As far as I understand: The ColdCard has hardware random number generator. The bug caused the firmware to NOT use the HRNG (which provides quality entropy) and rather used the MicroPython's software RNG as a fallback. The software RNG was seeded with time and IDs because in an airgapped system, ther...

The concept of a fallback is what gets me. Shouldn't that be a hard stop failure?

device id is bad, this info is findable by a motivated attacker, especially if the device id has a pattern (i think in cc case it was 16bit id, but could possibly be reduced to lower entropy contribution based on pattern, or even zero of the attacker knew the ids) timestamp is bad, because the poss...

Earlier this week they turned off their swap server, apparently for the same reason Boltz did: a malicious actor started automated probing their infrastructure for weaknesses, and found some, and it was becoming clear that the code wasn't production ready. If I had to guess, the same thing has happened again, but with other things they were running on the same server.

Wow I'm so glad there are so many chains with so much cheap and private block space available.
