2.1k @npub14mcddvsjs… has taken a bold risk by bringing Raja Miah back on his podcast to expose the horrific crimes — and the political cover-ups — surrounding the gang rapes of young girls.
This is a must-listen!

2.1k @Sjors_Provoost is one of the best educators in the Bitcoin space. While I strongly disagree with some of his points in this OP_RETURN episode (see my last 2–3 rant notes for that), it’s still a highly insightful listen—like every episode of Bitcoin Explained.

It was one of those episodes that kept me on my track and I had to take notes!
Highly recommended!
Listen and realize (even more) what an evil organization the IMF is!

1k Stopping consuming news has been one of the greatest changes I’ve made in my life.
I still unofficially consume X shit feed and get some news exposure, but in the process of giving that up too.

1k Somethin you’ve been nagging about is why Jade doesn’t support PSBT 😁
There are some things that are not very clear for me. The most important of which is that I used to think all hardware devices relied on PSBT and I used to think the air-gapped transactions that Jade supports with QR are in fact based on PSBT.
Could you please explain how a hardware wallet can keep the seeds secret with using PSBT?

420 I’m really interested in experimenting with this technology, but the cost is a hurdle.
It requires a minimum of three signer devices, each costing 150K sats.
This interview with Odell features Frostsnap co-founders Lloyd and Nick, the same people who demonstrated the DarkSkippy exploit.

It was a great chat and we covered all the likely and unlikely topics.
This interview is full of surprises.
For example, before getting into #Bitcoin, we start off by talking about exercise and diet!
Challenge: If a fellow vegan/vegetarian Bitcoiner is willing to have a debate about carnivore vs. plant-based, Robin has promised to host us!
Who is my challenger? 😎
