'Yell louder' is the new 'I want may payment to be included in the next block'

I miss a lot of people. I miss genuine people the most. But even fake ones can be missed. At least better than spineless useless f's.

Seedless is middleman.

They should rename these corporate Bitcoin conferences to 'Saylorfest'. Would make it more clear that it's for the show-offs and the audience that's only 'in bitcoin' when the price is up.

A few months ago, I predicted the bitcoin conferences would further "fork" away from each other between the upperl-layer industry fake-corporate ones (with big names and shitcoiners / middlemen) and on the other side the grassroots PoW people with no budget. Seems like we're seeing more and more of this ...

(Dutch) Jammer dat er geen onafhankelijke drukkingsgroep bestaat die financiële vrijheid, privacy en bitcoin vertegenwoordigt. De tijd begint stilaan op te raken; na oktober 2025 word je gewoon gecriminaliseerd, zonder weerwoord of organisatie.

My sunday Entropy-day ... upped the version of the blockpicker game to v1.7 I think this version is close to what I envisioned.

I've introduced some new people to Nostr. Just to see where the pain and hurdles are. 'There's only garbage on there, no news and no curation, I only saw uninteresting things, pure chaos' Other one: 'couldn't open iris' 'the keys are difficult, where do I find them?' No one even get to the point of zapping...

Updated the block picker game. It's so fun ;) Adjust the orderly block-pick algo for the computer's side. Small bug fixes for mobile. (Hobby project, not business grade)

(in Dutch) Wel grappig, op de raam van een "cash punt" in de stad stond in grote letters: "cash droppen kan hier" ... Waarna je op alle automaten in dat cashpunt de functie "cash storten" verwijdert zag op de interface 😉 banken zijn zo'n tricksters

Newer Bitcoiners only seem to listen when the "big 10" names say something.

Updated the "block picker game" to v 1.2: release: - mobile support for smaller screens - more user-feedback on-screen - added 256 extra salting for the randomness on the computer-picks (it's already secure, but now even more so) - buttons overhaul - 2 bugs fixed on the blocked area grid (that's in place for extra randomness, so even when the picks would be predictable (they're not) then the blocking grid is adding extra variations. This is a small hobby project, I'll work on it now and then to improve its randomness and security along the way. (fully compatible with the entropy entry for iancoleman's bip39 tools)

Presenting "Blockpicker game" new entropy game. It's just a beta (only tested 1 hour). It's not a business, so it's my free gift. (value4value is appreciated as always)

presenting my hobbyproject: the "MCOR" : "Message Compressor for OP_Return" This allows you to use OP_return (with the current 80 bytes limit 😉 ) as a message relayer, with compressed text.

All part of the tools-set I'm building. If you like my work, ideas and proof-of-work, please contribute. I'm "Mr21" I can be hired as a senior bitcoin-centric QA engineer. I think out of the box, and like to invent stuff.

Zap me like you hate me.

"enter your nostr relay and press enter"... so I paste the relays one by one each time I press enter... and all the parts are converted to "tags" like wss is a tag, nos is a tag 😉 what a joke 😉 some services are tested ZERO minutes 😉

A much needed re-post ... I see more and more bitcoin companies or initiatives releasing services that are not tested and not even have their basics properly in place. stop wasting everyone's time because you're too stupid, too lazy or too cheap to have something properly tested.
