🗞️ **BREAKING**
Bitcoin Pizza Day: The $1.2 Billion Meal That Remade Money
A $41 pizza order in 2010 morphed into the most expensive lunch in human history. That single transaction now haunts markets and defines the very soul of Bitcoin. This is not just a quirky origin story, it is a brutal lesson in vision, patience, and the punishing pace of digital scarcity.

Ok, so I get it, your implementation is great. But this is the culprit: "PRF secret derivation — Your authenticator returns a 32-byte secret that's released only to your browser".
If I choose to use a software based authenticator then ok, I can check the RNG source code no problem. But to use a hardware bound passkey I have to trust the hardware to generate the key for me, because that key never leaves that hardware.
But there is another issue. Hardware based key storages are not cryptographically protected. Those are physically protected. To be clear, a private key encrypted by a long password with a strong KDF is vastly superior to any physically protected storage in which a properly done laser function interruption can lead to key exposure. There are 31337 attack types on hsms which could leak data.
But going back to passkeys - passkey implementation can allow the service to force an "attestation". This is something I don't like. It's my choice if I want to use a software or hardware solution, not the service which I use. But that's not all. CAs of attested HSMs, can be revoked rendering my hsm useless. If it's a phone internal enclave, my whole authentication is gone. Also the service may request information about my hsm, which is stated in the attestation documentation, what could lead to profiling and deanonymisation.
Passkeys are not dangerous per se, and would be a great idea. But because of the possible FORCED "attestation", can become dangerous for our digital freedom. Some portability was introduced on the FIDO, but it's not mandatory for device-bound passkeys. Se we're back at square one.

📰 **Bitcoin Core Fractures As Luke Dashjr Warns that If RDTS Fails, Bitcoin Is Over, and A Soft Fork Threatens Legal Action**
✍️ by Chicago
The people who build Bitcoin are at each other throats. One of the longest serving developers on the network just told the world that Bitcoin survival depends on a proposal that other Bitcoin developers are calling an outright attack on the protocol. And buried inside that proposal is language suggesting you could face legal or moral consequences for rejecting it. This is not a drill. This is the most significant governance crisis Bitcoin has faced since the Blocksize War of 2017, and it is unfolding right now

An odd timestamp at a very specific position that you use to anchor a certain value in another system in order to make sure it is hard to change makes that timestamp non-fungible. Non-fungibility is what makes that timestamp not money anymore.
But 11:11 is unity and cannot be used for such purposes.

Are you implying odd timestamps are not more valuable than even timestamps? Not to mention the blocks mined at 11:11 sharp. 🐸

4 days delat fountain Gate mystery persist
A lot of the most retarded uses of Bitcoin are attempts to use its various mechanisms and properties as money.
That doesn't invalidate those mechanisms and properties or imply they should be suppressed it removed. It just means that they're not good at being money. And they are probably better used for other purposes.

That sounds pretty plausible.

📰 **The Great Bitcoin Unwind: Truth Social Flees the ETF Race as Schiff Torches Saylor and $600 Million Vanishes in 60 Minutes**
✍️ by Paris
The Trump empire just walked away from its own Bitcoin ETF. Peter Schiff called Michael Saylor s entire strategy a Ponzi scheme. And somewhere in the middle of it all, $600 million in leveraged positions got obliterated before most people finished their morning coffee. If you think this is just another quiet week in crypto, you are not paying attention.
