"Mass utility is going to lead to mass adoption." - @KimDotcom https://t.co/dpqYmYZFMi

A custodial “wallet” isn’t a wallet.

Disappointed at people replying to this with "crypto is what it is, it's your job to be super-careful and write down backup seeds in three places". We can and should create better wallet tech to make security easier. Eg. here's a social recovery ERC WIP: https://t.co/tuSbHhXKgd https://t.co/hCBAJKbK41

The internet going dark (in the end-to-end-encrypt-everything way) while the physical world goes transparent to an unprecedented extent and there's nothing we can do about it *already is* the compromise. https://t.co/KjyojYWdbP

"Rule thinkers in, not out" by @slatestarcodex https://t.co/7oUFGhslUo Basically: if an intellectual has some brilliant ideas and some terrible ideas, it's generally a good idea to keep following them; the brilliant ideas are really valuable and you can just ignore the others.

On Unconfirmed: all the fun, none of the pain of lotteries + decentralization! @lay2000lbs of @PoolTogether_ explains why this no-loss lottery is better using blockchains, how it uses DeFi and why it's drawing in non-crypto people. https://t.co/yOYXXKYNN8

On Unchained, @cryptocoley discusses how Binance US differs from Binance, what's on Catherine's wish list to regulators, whether Binance US will be cut off from the global, open financial system Binance is building and whether BNB could be a security. https://t.co/W2LHkjUW7E

On Unconfirmed, @natemaddrey of Coin Metrics discusses how the major crypto networks ended 2019, how Bitcoin outperformed most, why Tether on Ethereum has overtaken Tether on Omni and which four networks have seen their number of active addresses drop. https://t.co/dYMSa2OMCG

On Unchained, @alpackaP and @hosseeb talk about why Dragonfly Capital has a global focus, why Lightning hasn't yet taken off, why Ethereum is so far in the lead in smart contracts and why China's "blockchain, not crypto" emphasis is a dead end. https://t.co/dIOkn9yuqz

Heh, it's no wonder Emin's been on a bit of a "Twitter needs to solve their bots problem" thing, as these AVA¹ bots are so badly done their indistinguishable from false flags. Also, was Karma ever actually implemented? 1) Emin's new blockchain. https://t.co/FAt6cwDR1x

Reality: 25% of Google users are on IPv6 (37% in the US), that figure has been steadily growing for years, and among other things, police forces pushing for IPv6 because the plentiful IP addresses make it easier to identify people compared to NAT. IPv6 jokes are dying. https://t.co/WFx5VVcyOz

The incentives in journalism can be rather perverse. https://t.co/IrqB6RDJTX

Lol. So Emin Published his "how to spot Satoshi" article on Dec 10th 2015. Greg Maxwell published Dec 8th 2015. Heck, even Vice news reported it on Dec 9th. What a silly thing to get all "for the record" about, esp as everyone noticed CSW was lying. https://t.co/aTfdrkp2St https://t.co/Qbp9qso2co

#Bitcoin Knots 0.19.0.1.knots20200104 is released. https://t.co/1uftlgIBHo

Power outage today. Turns out generator won't start (again). Seems from talking to others that generators fail annoyingly often, and of course you don't find out until you need it... #Generator #SolarPower #SolarPanels

https://t.co/JhMTlE2zA1: Was asked if I applied any "religious" factors into my analysis. My answer was: In the Winter I'm a Buddhist & in the Summer I'm a nudist!

https://t.co/JhMTlE2zA1: Was this rally from the $6.4k low a "last chance to exit" before the capitulation phase?

https://t.co/JhMTlE2zA1: Do you own a "shitcoin"? How different is it this time compared to the graveyard of the https://t.co/mGOYthonrs casualties? https://t.co/FvGbJaNFbl

https://t.co/JhMTlE2zA1: I am "formally" on the XRP cult Shitlist! Incoming....haterade DMs! How different is this FOMO rally? https://t.co/HrUtQkjFNX

Retweet from my new account @marcvanderchijs. I decided to start blogging regularly again. I always liked to do it and feel that having control over my own data is becoming more important (especially with Twitter censoring me). More about this on my blog: https://t.co/RT5sgGwvqi

Hmm, but the question on everyone's mind is whether or not this is Pro-BTC? 🤔😂 https://t.co/EufJdmP1ig

I found @SatoshisPlace the most interesting cryptocurrency-related project of 2018. @CasaHODL Node the most interesting of 2019. I dunno what I will find interesting in 2020, but it will probably be built on Lightning. https://t.co/aD8w7mxvcA

Here's the December update on MimbleWimble on Litecoin by @DavidBurkett38: https://t.co/wbmcQJEcDQ Fundraising for the Litecoin Confidential Transaction Fund is going strong.

We're on the precipice of some radical developments in our relationship with technology. Looking forward to attending this @WISeKey roundtable with @CreusMoreira at #Davos to discuss how we can prepare! https://t.co/OUeBr7ryek

Here's what happened: after debate in 2018, we went to dinner. Peter had never used bitcoin before (!) I helped him set up wallet on his phone (Edge or BRD?), told him to secure it if he ever held significant value on it, gave him $50. He forgot pw, and never recorded phrase. 😑 https://t.co/kcQkAyU9Rv

Along with their impassioned use of Bitcoin, Nazi’s use toothbrushes, cell phones, pillows, and water. All such instruments of hate should be banned and vilified. https://t.co/eS9ZgZTyfl

I’m surprised that in 2020, with all the big data and analytics they must have, that @FedEx cannot give a tighter time window on the delivery of a package that requires signature, “by 8pm today”.

Great thread! Half of the success in technology business comes from timing and grinding! https://t.co/DfOypYSeIJ

That’s what the @civickey strategy is and why we setup the @identity foundation. It just takes time. https://t.co/dbxPZmEmjG

When BSV + BCH goes up, long term BTC hodlers with pre-split coins will make an effort to split up their coins to acquire more BTC, pushing BTC up further, and capping the BSV/BCH run. Can anyone prove this theory using data?

Great to see you and great talk @brucefenton. Enjoy Financial Services Revolution! #TNABC https://t.co/7Y8SQ8Z04r

"It’s been a great adventure for me to be so hated by people I hold in contempt." -- Roger Scruton, champion of freedom, RIP

“The biggest kick is reading something new and exciting and then getting other people to share your enthusiasm. Beyond all the cant and hypocrisy in publishing, that's what it's all about.” — Sonny Mehta, publisher, RIP

"It’s not a compliment when someone tells you you’re a survivor. It’s bullshit. We’re all survivors till we die. Get out there, go for it, don’t be afraid. Be a winner—that’s what it’s all about." -- Robert Evans, legend of Hollywood, RIP

"The world of technology thrives best when individuals are left alone to be different, creative, and disobedient." --Don Valentine, founder of Sequoia, RIP

More thoughts on private wallets: https://t.co/FEhZbx0pfM

I've been playing with @TornadoCash and have started thinking about what an easy-to-use wallet built on top of it might be like. https://t.co/ENL2dlDQxv

Women couldn’t vote in the US from 1788 until 1920. We should make it up to them by prohibiting men from voting until 2152. And maybe prohibit men from joining the military to make up for all those years when women weren’t welcome.

I found @CryptoKitties the most interesting cryptocurrency-related project of 2018. @PoolTogether_ the most interesting of 2019. I dunno what I will find interesting in 2020, but it will probably be built on Ethereum.

Imo people who believe the Halving is already priced in don't take into account that the vast majority of investors are now completely apathetic about $BTC. The Halving buzz will be "news" in that it'll remind the public that bitcoin is very much not dead.

Reminder: 1. Back up your seed 2. Be responsible with your pin/password Bitcoin requires you to take personal responsibility for your own wealth. If you're not ready to do that, then don't buy.

How should we call the 2020's (and no, not "roaring twenties"; we can be less ambiguous).

TIL that "awry" is pronounced a-wry instead of aw-ry.
