Last Notes npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Asking for a friend, is the @nprofile…lhem RNG AI exploit the bottom of the bear? Or maybe after watching clueless last night, (weird and even though it was from the 90’s, really not that good), but the girl is the dollar suit was 👌, always it the saylor earnings call where he talked about his dollar stack!!! https://blossom.primal.net/2e9b0b8050320e643c8754a567375622caee8e626d0138ec0776823e94a5bc15.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/7a8a057ffeada8cae40af182a4af94571f035b48c2bf9f3d1152fa3954bf6c3b.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Worth a quick listen. Stay frosty, poor @nprofile…a20h , as if he didn’t already have enough on his plate. #nevent1q…hfna npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Blockstream in the consortium…….. who’d have thunk wallet fud would be quite so loud. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Gm nostriches, in no way what I was expecting this morning……. Random number generator exploit in coldcard. They always said, don’t be rushed in moving your funds, don’t take advice from people with a sense of urgency, this is when mistakes will be made, this could be the bigger risk to losing coins, making a mistake…… Time to up my game, do the dice rolling, add a passphase, sort the multisig for the home set up, but even so, 4 hours after @nprofile…6sez shares this issue on X, mempools are still empty……. Damn the coldcard I hid in a random spot in the house!!!! Is this a strange analogy……… suppose it’s time the roll the dice and leave it where it is! Or find a reason that I need to head into a random place in the house…….. before heading out to Brighton…….. but first, #coffeechain to clear the mind. Happy Friday freaks, stay calm. https://blossom.primal.net/0dec94fe393cb90da3f28608ed520f6a53ed498ab16c1a03c86a9c7c11680d84.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe 🫡🙌 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Always happy to help, is this what you’re looking for? https://primal.net/e/naddr1qqehw6rpwskhg6r994nx7unt946xsefdveskcmrpvduj6mmx943xjarrda5kuttxdaexkttpwf3xjarjv9nk2q3qdja4taqf6kxwajv3a6cmf2s80yc705rc6eya5enp9ppfhdnmdyxqxpqqqp65wwfgvwg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe It has appeared.

Keep it simple, keep working, ask yourself where the yield comes from and finally, ask if bip110 is seriously different from the “normal” of September 2025? https://fountain.fm/episode/h1rHK7RxlBjbAPPI61RA npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Nostr isn’t dead, Nostr was never dead, the difference appears to be that Nostr isn’t fueled by fiat, Nostr isn’t fuels by dopamine hits, Nostr is fuelled by lightning, people sharing the interesting things they do, the interesting things they write (good work @nprofile…7umd ) “Nostr adoption” may not be arriving as a tidal wave, the nostriches showing up everyday, doing cool shit (h/t @nprofile…0xfr ), sharing that with the other 1% of 1% are building a base of based coiners, calm waters, critical thinking, no rage bating “X” anger. #bip110 is kinda important, but I want to know people’s insight, not someone telling someone else calling bitcoinpierre a retard. But c is useful just to see the other side of that argument, I think @nprofile…jtjc comedy act is on point at the moment 😘👌 Be the better person, spend time doing cool shit, and if you have time, share pictures of it with other cool people on Nostr. If you have an opinion or view, write a Nostr read. Spend more time listening than telling everyone why you’re right. #coffeechain then off to take the #catstr to the vet maybe with the kids!!!! Holiday fun!! https://blossom.primal.net/a4784ac3d8c42cb911b016dd4b1aec5e5502a86dffba652efe2355fa708eed5d.jpg #nevent1q…4qez npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe I remember some of those pictures from when they were first published in the 90’s npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe The damage not drinking has done.

Was pretty good all in, then ending the day with a beautiful sky, finishing things off with some fish and chips from town before heading to the seaside on Friday…….. Brighton, 🧐 looking forward to seeing more “gays for Gaza” signs. Today, poor kid continuing the route towards straight teeth with some more tooth removal, time to stoke her up with some food this morning as her mouth will be all sorts of messed up by this afternoon. #coffeechain calm before the day begins, Great @nprofile…srzj episode to start the day, good hostility to the “consortium”. https://fountain.fm/episode/k4yWrQqZptdF8qwaBfQm https://blossom.primal.net/2b4017910e974152e2061ac747b46421ef87c970ec00350658e4c14b8533a1b9.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/e7dddd5bab6d8cc4ed9de5483dac4befd7ab2e2daa716b68b22ea8e39bb45604.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/4f39a65d40f3cf7f385701b03a9ba397bf1d25d0f9ce16722a2ff872c349aa9d.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/990f737f1478a0658a21d9454719f21bc6023c852e92a1243e1f7e0d06dc0de5.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Jimmy’s article was pretty interesting with how a chain split could work out with his fees on a lower hash rate chain motivating miners to move their hash over, but also service agreements stopping many miners moving. Finding an exchange that list a fork will be interesting, so unless it can be done minimal kyc, dumping coins could be the carrot that gets a lot of less careful people (than yourself) that doxx their whole stack. Hoping liquid will do something, lots of money to be made by exchanges will get a lot of people interested. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Strong recommend from a very happy customer. https://blossom.primal.net/bb055ff35497099be1a7f70957c389e26a19b090c46a5f19afeb920f2d31255e.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Finding this whole development is absolutely while. Need some refining of the particular once highlighter let’s me edit the file, but overall, there are some aspects of this “consortium” that are deeply troubling, and as a baseline, no change should be the default and that absolutely doesn’t mean mindlessly upgrading Bitcoin core!!! https://primal.net/Dug/BIP-110-Node-Runners-Miners-and-Corporate-Meddling-6d6781 #nevent1q…nnj2 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Looking back, I think this was quite the important point to make about bitcoin core, Gloria Zhao will live for eternity as one of the core developers to pushed through the op_return increase, personal Glory(a), or infamy, without any development or improvement actually being shipped. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Looking back, I think this was quite the important point to make about bitcoin core, Gloria Zhao will live for eternity as one of the core developers to pushed through the op_return increase, personal Glory(a), or infamy, without any development or improvement actually being shipped. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe At least he’s not obviously been whipped into line by the podconf approved crowd. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Finally uploaded, will to get the diagrams and pictures uploaded and also take out the “double paste” issue. The way people are falling in line, combined with the “we control any hard forks” has to be taken with a lot of caution. As has been the way for years, if there is any doubt, keep running an old node, but do it deliberately not passively. #nevent1q…64xd #naddr1qq…d748 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Still trying to upload!!!!!

The psychologists are animals!!!!! Ducking out part way through to get a haircut (with the Bitcoin cake) and maybe some lunch, possibly after a bit of mid morning scrabble to get their grey matter working. Now, after an early #coffeechain, heading downstairs again to get cracking with some granola bar to take with us, maybe some hot chocolate mix to make use of “free work milk”!!!!! Wrote a #bip110 piece yesterday, highlighters busting my nuts not letting me upload!!!! Nowhere near @nprofile…0pqx ‘s piece, but a reckon worth a skim. Basic finding, tldr, don’t trust the corps, or those who have their bills paid by the corps and remember that clause in the etf filing.……. In other news, sold the last of my mstr, some even, some at a loss. At best, waiting out the summer and maybe grab a bid come September as a trade. https://blossom.primal.net/52a02ece69c71d2a769e92ef4b5349c81f45258085b56a7a140b15458b93e537.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe “I have so much important stuff to say, I’m an academic don’t you know”. 🤨 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe A tough show to listen to by 2 left wing academics (not crazy left, but very “the unions were a good thing”), focusing on all that is wrong with the system without actually explored the processes that lead to value creating business that will create wealth and prosperity. Feel like they are too busy looking back and not giving enough attention on where we need to go. Always, the knocking of “middle class” as if they arrive with a silver spoon got a little repetitive. The middle class is getting crushed while the working have been turned into the welfare class, and loving it! “We need better story telling” 🤦♂️ But credit where credit’s due, Lisa did acknowledge that while she didn’t like Farage, he has helped begin to mix things up. Cheers @nprofile…cy3y and awesome work Connor for picking them up on some contradictions. https://fountain.fm/episode/tbvHTR2dV47er5hNM1jw npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe It starts with telling you, you won’t get on the good side of the banks unless you follow his lead. Now, after settling up a consortium to fund and fix Bitcoin, he suggests @npub1lh2…a9nk has “just heard about Bitcoin and he’s here to fix it”. Wondering if someone needs to go and see Saylor and ask him if he’s ok? These are ramblings of someone who appears to have lost the point. Buying fiat, credit product buy backs, and poking fun at actual OGs. Slay your heroes, unsure he ever was, but I’m out of the fiat games completely. https://blossom.primal.net/7b58979502cd60b80f2380d793937c1614104c6dbf798ee70ab42267ea3ff8de.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe The only conclusion I can work out from this @nprofile…w4tr is my brain is too small and there are too many variables to know which way this will go…….. fun times ahead. #naddr1qp…h2zh npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Common a hareholders in disbelief. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Responsibility, integrity, everything else can take care of itself. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Is Michael Saylor beginning to make our arguments for us? Absolutely don’t care if the 99% fiat minded monsters aren’t part of our party. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Absolutely, stem students getting made more efficient by AI, so less need for new grads then the white collar humanities students just getting replaced by AI agents. Only fans and other “content creation” the revenue generation of choice?!?!? npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Ha ha ha, you’re living in the same celebrations as me. I look around and while thinking “the ladies didn’t wears dresses like that in my day”, also wish them luck in juggling their loans moving forward! npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Bitcoin is store of value (savings) and medium of exchange for stake n shake, no need for foolish fiat leverage. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Sometimes, we have to look back to see how we need to help things move forward.

Feeling the aches and pains of the weekend with continued painting, and the line no one wanted to hear “the front now looks like it needs repainting”………… “here’s a brush”. 😐 Solid Monday in the mine, the next #bip110 thought experiment in the chamber, feels like enough to keep me engaged in the fiat mine before bringing the kids in with me tomorrow while the “backseat painter” is off doing “her thing”. https://blossom.primal.net/d13c267597e5f79e50738fb0ac4ca1bd845cd990a454d8bbefbe8c7862747fa3.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe They believe they can just roll us over, but if we hold the line, plug in our miners and run our own nodes, we can fight the encroachment of the suits!!!! npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Story behind the artist if that cover is pretty interesting.

Compliant blocks from large miners are an interesting sign, really wondering whether the Bitcoin holder masses need to put more money where their mouths are and splurge on some home mining equipment, so if worst comes to worst, we can all fire up some hashrate for when the corporate, fiat maxi miners run around with their tail between their legs not knowing which chain their fiat overlords want them to mine so the network can be maintained. The independent miner movement could be the progression of the “nodes have the power” of 2017. The corporate miners are forever fighting an unwinnable fight, fiat sustaining their ever reducing revenue. The grass roots miners have no such bind, they mine for heat, they mine to secure the network, they mine to add the blocks/transactions they want added. There will be books written about this, blockwars 2.0, Spam wars, The Bitcoin holders strike back? Who knows, but looking out for a miner myself. https://blossom.primal.net/b006d41b756e1dbd7d68b58b636024ae2d5232577d123f207073ff328bd22a31.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Gm nostriches, interesting time in “the parade” yesterday, love the pro choice perspective, although find when choices are different than the blue hairs like they really don’t like your ability to choose…… Unsure if all those in the march were quite aware of what they were supporting “Israel (and the UK) is a terrorist state”, hmmm, is that still pride? “Free Palestine” simple question, anyone know how your life choices would go down on the West Bank? Yeah, it’s as if you accept what you’ve been told and not really explored the implications of what you’ve now “believe”. Anyway, critical thinking is generally in a bear market, band wagons are very full, and if I can put off a difficult decision today in favour of a little fun, where is the harm in that. If nothing else, some preparation for when we head to Brighton at the end of the week. A little more paining today but first #coffeechain https://blossom.primal.net/5e6726a0a4763bb483c24a2ceec200c6f94db0ce68521b12215b73c93f078614.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Finishing a little more painting around the other side, there was absolutely a timeline where I was pretty much on the top step, steadying myself on the window ledge and something slipped and I either died of a head injury or came out paralysed. I took it slow, considered the risks and went for it anyway to do the work that people simply may never see, but I know it’s done. Sort of like holding but also working on bitcoin. Satoshi did the work that is praised, shaolin fry @npub1lh2…a9nk and others did/do amazing work, but we are all merely stewards, we are not the stars. I do the work on the house so it will be there in the future, well, I also like doing stuff other people will tell me I’m stupid for doing and should get someone in to do it for me, as if, that’s sats I’d be handing over to some nocoiner!!!! https://blossom.primal.net/d6e9655f0c75da148be85050f5e3e296e4c1e6aed819cecf5506cb990b127bce.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/06cd3847b44729c033de42dd3c37ad3eb721bf9fa0801896cdd5d271c5340521.jpg #nevent1q…d7ae npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Save the northern libtards from all that horrible freedom. 🫡🙌 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Ga nostriches, after some interesting #bip110 commentary from @nprofile…n3h2 , thought I’d return to a Nov 2025 pod with @nprofile…x9j8, the foresight on this was wild and can’t give enough credit to them both for exploring this, sounding the alarm before so many were fully aware and it became quite so existential. “We need to smash core” or at least show them that if they make changes the nodes runners don’t like, they won’t get eternal Glory (a), they will have some find somewhere else to sell their services. https://fountain.fm/episode/9z4q6ksg3JLbM0AatQrm https://primal.net/Dug/BIP-110-V30-and-the-Miners-0pnhof npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe At what point does the ladder angle become foolish? https://blossom.primal.net/d6e9655f0c75da148be85050f5e3e296e4c1e6aed819cecf5506cb990b127bce.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Probably nothing and completely their own choice. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Head up a ladder and plant my house!!!

Those who like to trade will be primed to find that sketchy exchange, willing to snipe from fees, maybe with low kyc, so these degens can start loading up their private keys on the alternate chain and send them into an exchange, praying that they haven’t just dumped their minority fork coins that a few weeks later is identified as “small bitcoin” as the home miner crew really kick into gear and before the bigger miners begin to switch over as “Bitcoin bitcoin” informs everyone they need to adhere to ofac complaints and they’ve found a way to kyc all wallets interacting with their chain…………. It could be a very rough 6 months to work through a difficulty adjustment, but talking about hodl mentality, iron sharpens iron.

No one was aware, the only way that would work was more public money plowed into failing businesses or the reduction in quality of services, in both cases the bosses of these companies never needed to take “their” buses.

Ngl, the chain split is a concern but it has happened before and will likely happen again, it may happen but what is important is how everyone learns from the experience. The risk management perspective for the public miners can’t be overlooked (Luke’s the man for this). Is your profitability where @nprofile…4xe3 ‘s is? if not, you’re neglecting your fiduciary duty and also introducing risks of mining on an orphaned chain, also those could happen either way, but cutting out bit op_return would just reduce this risk.
