Bitcoin, Not Central Planners

This is the sort of article that can lose a media publication's credibility. Fast. In a truly embarassing effort from Switzerland's public broadcaster @swissinfo_en just claimed a long-debunked claim that "Bitcoin emits a lot of energy per transaction" For the record, no it doesn't. Bitcoin resource use comes through mining, not transactions (getting this wrong is a rookie error). It was debunked 4 times in peer reviewed papers (Masanet et al,  2019, Dittmar et al. 2019, Sedlmeir et al, 2020, and Sai and Vraken, 2023.) That's why no reputable mainstream media companies make this claim any more. Oops. Imagine having done so little research on your article that you a. didn't know that b. didn't know that all your peers in the media except you already know that But the Swiss article gets worse. The author mentioned none of the actual contemporary research on Bitcoin, appearing to have no awareness that since 2021 there have been 30 peer reviewed articles (source: x.com/DSBatten/status/206179…) showing that Bitcoin is not only not a big emitter, but it is a genuine solution to ending the era of big emissions by: - Accelerating renewable energy transition (16 papers) - Monetizing wasted renewable energy (14 paper) - Obviating flaring, landfill gas emissions, or gas peaker plants (3 papers) Finally, the article references its own previous copy, an article from 31 May 2025 quoting the non-peer reviewed hobby blog Digiconomist (which Wikipedia expressly states is not a reputable source), authored by Dutch Central Banker Alex de Vries, whose work on Bitcoin Mining was debunked in 2023 (Sai and Vranken) Source: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… So in summary, what can we objectively say is true about this article on Bitcoin's environmental impact from @swissinfo_es. They have 1. Not acknowledged 30 peer reviewed papers which contradict their thesis 2. Referenced the hobby blog from an author whose work's academic merits are disputed (to say the least) 3. stated the flawed "per transaction" metric which has been debunked 4 times in academic work Irrespective of your opinion on Bitcoin or Bitcoin mining, this is not a great look for Swissinfo. Rather, it is misinformation against a technology that has been established in multiple academic journals, by energy experts, grid operators and renewable energy generators as being an important part of the UNSDGs and environmental action. in short: the sort of article that establishes a news outlet as not a reliable source Do better @swissinfo_jp @swissinfo_fr @swissinfo_de

Nimdolf: Non-interactive Mint Delegation on Liveness Failure Currently if a mint is honest, but goes offline, users can lose all funds. This proposal offers a solution to move users to a delegate mint in the event their original mint goes offline. gist.github.com/lukechilds/3…

Nothing is impossible. There are layers of impossibility that we can break through, to discover new ones. All it takes is enough people and resources to coordinate on breaking through each layer.

I became an expert when I stopped listening to anything other than @bitcoinoptech, @BitcoinCreds, and @SpokenBitcoin x @Puerto_Crypto
