I want to be clear about myself. I’m a Pleb. I love what bitcoin is for humanity but i am not versed in the intricacies of the deep.
I followed the best practice i was able to understand. I flew into the UK as the CC attack was happening and expected to have lost it all
I didn’t. But i did move it all around FAST when i got home. Yes some to exchanges. That sucked but I’ll move it away. I am too f’ing busy to be a self flagellating hero.
I make no apologies, I’m doing the best i can
I feel truly gutted for those that lost their stack
However i am still up for the fight and always will be. I’m Nostr only and any of you bright fuckers out there please post the best advice for us plebs to look into.

As of August 2026, you cannot currently get the Moderna mRNA flu jab (specifically the mFLUSIVA vaccine) on the NHS in the UK. The FDA in the United States approved this specific mRNA flu vaccine in August 2026, but there is no confirmation in the search context that it has been approved for NHS use or rolled out in the UK

This is the start of the Big Take . Rob the plebs of their coins, get as many coins into Wall St. and Hard Fork to a BlackRock Bitcoin with miner collusion 🤷‍♂️

So the increase in entropy from 40 to 128 is so big it’s multi decades before a possible computer hack

That’s kinda what i meant, if we can break 30-40 , I was just musing over timeframe to break 128

Am I misguided then ? The reverse engineering of these lower bit seeds was figured out with Ai ?

I think Bitcoin is tick tock
But the business around it is currently cock tock
We are in a weak men create ….
Strong men will win through but there is a State level creep to infest and neuter Bitcoin and Bitcoiners.
The battle rages on as the power of sound money threatens the status quo and that’s a powerful chronic virus to overcome

I’m a pleb. Ain’t no dumb Pleb but feel really f’ing dumb right now. So guess 8.5 years has just rendered me a dumb Pleb. Bitcoin is deep and then when you get there it goes f’ing Mariana

I think it’s important to remind people who just trash those that lost everything on CC BS
I come from an average background, had success in music, saw bitcoin early, did nothing. Fell down hole end of ‘17. Stacked sats in bear of ‘18, started to see comments about how you could hold your own keys, learnt that ledger was an option. Saved there, then data leak and lots of people saying oh closed source project, it’s shit. So ok what the fuck is that then. Ok look to ‘OG’ characters who all seem to say the real deal is a Coldcard. Ok but really ? Then Ben saying well yeah but airgap, dice roll. Ok next level …
You get my f’ing drift ?!
After 8.5 years I’m still a pleb but i feel i can say this shit as I’ve served a long stretch and i feel self sovereignty for the masses is dead in the water now.
For those that wish to self build, self verify code, self flagillate. Go ahead but the masses ARE NOT COMING
I shall reevaluate and spread my wings to cover my responsibilities in this life and to those who rely on me when I’m gone

Self sovereignty for the masses is dead in the water, and for the initiated is taking a deeper path. The two will likely never meet. Big shame

People who run large podcasts, have a company with NVK on the board, constantly pump the product, I’d say they need to know devs and programmers who have reviewed the code on all products they push, yes

2026-08-05 18:54:33 CEST

Yes, there’s a clip from ‘21 with odell saying so. NVK tells him but doesn’t go into detail

I understand you like seeing these people at conferences Derek but I don’t. I want security for sats only.

….. and what have turned out to be useful idiots with large podcast followings constantly pumped it

2026-08-05 18:46:38 CEST

- reply

Not their fault ?! It’s completely their fault. They knew it existed and told noone and closed sourced their product so it couldn’t be analysed

2026-08-05 18:27:50 CEST

Gigi you’re a great guy but it’s easy to say when you’ve not lost it all. Yes , sats ain’t everything but this was a serious hit. I suggest dismantling the ten31 type egos and focusing on what the core bitcoin ethos really is. And it ain’t money, because many have lost that. It’s actually building code that doesn’t fail people at such an easy hurdle otherwise all the BS on top will never happen anyway

2026-08-05 00:21:06 CEST

There’s a new vibe, people who actually give a shit. Step up for sure

I feel f’ing lucky. My thoughts are with those who lost it all. It’s a f’ing tragedy. NVK can go fuck himself, and to be honest most of the ten31 eejots
This is a reset , yes
But it makes me f’ing furious.
Lazy idiots spurting shite to make money.
Fuck all these podcasting morons , it’s why i left all platforms except Nostr.
I realise from this, again, how vapid even the OG bitcoiners are
Bitcoin doesn’t give a fuck, tick tock
But all the froth on top can get fucked

2026-08-04 23:51:18 CEST

Here’s my take as an 8.5 year pleb. I fell for this BS Coldcard shit … I survived by a whisker
I feel massively for those who lost everything. We are all just normal People doing the best we can for our families.
Fuck those who say it’s just a great opportunity to reassess . If you followed what you thought were best practices, sold to you by those you believed were deeper than yourselves then this hits hard
Yeah yeah yeah you can all say well you should have done more research
Fuck you then
This a deep f’ing hole.
We’re all trying to find our place.
Step up all you clever cunts and check the f’ing code
This was a BS event.
