An idea: SP Forwarder. A separate app, holds the scanning/spending keys, scans TXs (from own node). For new payments it forwards to a ‘regular’ address (xpub-based). Forwarded payments can be processed with any usual wallet. Any obvious Privacy/security drawbacks? @SomsenRuben

[LDK Splicing] 🎉🎉🎉 Managed to create first real spliced channel with LDK!! This is with my simplified prototype.

The fiat world decline is accelerating. It is very deceptive. Because of the technological advancement, we're not going back in time, we're definitely going forward, yet in many aspects, the fiat world can't operate and is in the state of coma, approaching clinical death. Many people are running away, but because there is no single place where this decline does not happen, it feels like running around. The only place that feels like healthily growing and ascending is the dark forest - a lunarpunk refuge for creativity. It's not fiat based, it is anonymity based, which replaces status games with value creation games. And because there's no fiat rulers or central bankers, it feels like a place where productive people can find refuge. If they can find the moon illuminated path to the dark forest. Led by courage and curiosity. I'm not saying all is perfect in the dark forest, it's still small and small things easily grow fast. But it's the most fascinating place to be right now...

The right to privacy is as important as the right to private property. Great collection on the topic:

Hey @dusty_daemon, father of Splicing, could you help me? Is there a LN message sequence diagram of Splicing available somewhere (happy path use case)? Is there some kind of discussion channel dedicated to Splicing dev? Are you aware of any ongoing splicing dev activities in LDK?

In my keynote address at @BtcPrague I discussed the impact of monetary inflation on wealth preservation, the investment challenges we all face, the defects of various monetary instruments, and why #Bitcoin is the best global solution for those in search of a Store of Value.

Back in 2020, I created a symbol for the Lightning Network. At that time, the most commonly used symbols were those from Lightning Labs, Blockstream, or simply the ⚡️ emoji, so I decided to create a neutral alternative. #Bitcoin

@PizzaDayPrague p2p badge ready!

What is #Bitcoin in 3 minutes.

Ok this is fun, send Sats ⚡️to electrocute someone. Each ⚡️ transaction is an electro shock. I request this as a feature for every #bitcoin live podcast moving forward 😅 (created by @arcbtc )

Wake Up, Neo...

Time to sell #bitcoin  for CBDCs.

FINALLY #Bitcoin Twitter has been Balenciaga’d 😅 x.com/lifeisgoodBTC/status/1…

Bitcoin mining has zero carbon emissions.

Don’t fall for the “but muh Binance P2P” argument. Binance P2P chokes out competition that will serve humans MUCH better, without sucking them into the 💩coin morass. @Azteco_ @hodlhodl @bisq_network #noones

AS WE’VE KNOWN FOR DECADES, the @CreditSuisse problem was too big for the Swiss central bank to handle if it ever went bust (which it did today). It’s just too big for the SNB alone. So, it’s the Fed’s problem now:
