1/13 Last night I couldn't sleep thinking about #Bitcoin as an interplanetary monetary system. If we mine blocks on Earth and Mars, the Relativity of Simultaneity creates a massive problem: "Which block came first?" becomes a matter of perspective.

12/13 Even the way nodes talk must change. Standard P2P gossip fails when the "Round Trip Time" is measured in coffee breaks. We'd have to move to Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) and a security model based on Hashrate PoTT.

13/13 Building for Mars isn't just about rockets, it's about rewriting the fundamental assumptions of synchronized systems. The "Time" in "Proof of Work" is about to get a lot more literal.
Can't wait to implement all of those! JK ;)

Built a macOS (Apple Silicon) driver for the Xbox 360 Harmonix guitar: maps frets/strum to keyboard for YARG. Drop the app in Applications and run. Works today; happy to add Clone Hero support next. Repo: github.com/nGoline/harmonix-… #YARG #CloneHero #macOS #AppleSilicon #GuitarHero

Couldn't be more happy! An acquaintance asked Google 'how to decode a #BOLT11 invoice in C#' and Gemini told them to use #NLightning! Slowly but surely we're getting somewhere...

É sempre um prazer fazer parte de um evento tão incrível. Ver mais de 1100 pessoas usando #Bitcoin como se deve, muitas pela primeira vez, é mágico. Realmente tinha que sair perfeito depois de 3 anos polindo o processo. ♥️ @jaoNoctus, @vallades e @lucasdcf

Durante os dois dias de Satsconf, foram mais de 3 mil pagamentos processados e quase 19 milhões de sats movimentados. Um retrato do poder do Bitcoin em tempo real. 🤘
A operação contou com a infraestrutura da @Bitcoinize e @BtcpayServer , e o apoio técnico de @ngoline , @jaoNoctus e Felipe Vallades, que garantiram o funcionamento impecável de todos os pagamentos.
