#coffeechain today in Shanghai.

When sha256 is broken by a quantum computer, has anyone given thought to what the community will do? Is a parallel chain soft fork already employing a PQR algorithm for secondary PoW verification already running? Can I help volunteer on this parallel proof of work mining? This might make an eventual hard fork more seamless?

Zunyi lamb noodle. May have to retire in Guizhou…

I did my first HSBC hypothetical e-HKD transaction today at HKUST. They lost my original receipt but my hot milk tea purchase may live on in the blockchain. Great conversation with HKMA on where digital assets is going in #hk

Celebrating a successful digital assets week in #HK. Eager to see where this goes.

Time to celebrate with team #hk

Winning #hk

First small homework reward sent out. Will send out more later. Too bad we don’t have a trusted identity provider to guard against Sybil attacks :) the price we must pay to be early… great time at HKU - had fun!

Teaching a class on Decentralized Identity at Hong Kong University this morning. We will learn about Nostr and Polygon ID. Take a unique photo of me in class, create a Nostr profile with a (Wallet of Satoshi) bitcoin lightning wallet, reply to this post or message it to me, and I (and maybe even others…) will pay you to complete your homework with a zap. #GrowNostr #Bitcoin #HKU #HongKong #PolygonID #Web3 #DID

Have a good weekend.

Well that lightning channel open at 13 sats/vB ain’t going anywhere in the #bitcoin mempool. 4 days and counting. Sadly, I spent the entire utxo and there seems to be no way to fix it. Live and learn.

I tried the Maotai Baijiu Luckin coffee today. I have to say - it’s actually pretty good. An Irish coffee with Chinese characteristics 😂 It must be insanely hard for a brand like Maotai to take a risk in doing this. Kudos for whoever pulled it off - and executed it this incredibly well.

Still searching for the best way to manage my CLN node. I tried RTL but can’t figure out how to circular rebalance - the option is missing. Anyone recommend clboss? Another suggestion?

Is there an app that has a map and let’s people find businesses that support #bitcoin #lightning payments? Would be fun to pay a few sats to post businesses.

Eli had a great time at my sisters wedding in Luzern, Switzerland. Rain or shine, always make the best of it

#Bitcoin has not required a single bullet to set its price, and will never require one to defend its value
