I can't stop thinking about this: Can I just send large op_Returns and withdraw bitcoin with no op_returns from the same exchange? Kinda like sticking fake money in a vending machine and getting real money back out when I cancel. View quoted note → ---- Deposits and withdrawals aren't the same slot on the same machine. A deposit is the exchange deciding a transaction is final. A withdrawal is the exchange building a brand new transaction from its own coins. The rules that decide "this doesn't count" and the rules that decide "so you get nothing" are the same rules, checked by the same system. You can't be invalid and credited at once — not unless the business is broken in a much dumber way: crediting deposits with one ruleset, and building withdrawals with another, without ever checking that the books still add up. Which is really the interesting part. It's not a fork exploit. It's just: does anyone reconcile the ledger before the deadline? ----

how affiliated is Square with BitKey and should we be worried about Bitkey not supporting the right chain? i feel like there's a new reason to take a hammer to a hardware device every year. first it was Ledger for their recovery feature. then it was Jade for the island visit now it's bitkey for the CashApp/Block connection to this hideous Consortium... of course their backup keys live on Google server + a Bitkey Server anyway, so it was never that separated from Tech Industrial Complex... is the best way forward nowadays, just to take an old computer that will never connect to internet again to make keys...? or is this 15 million dollar consortium just silly? 15 million for those characters probably isn't even enough to fund their hotel rooms, meetings, and cheese platters... maybe it was just a 4D chess move to make it look like *something is happening*, torture some bad actors in useless Zoom meetings while the real work gets done on the little man's dime and out in the open.
