Me too. Profit maximization fucks up most social interactions. Unfortunately enough, trust isn't always an option.

i helped mike in space double spend his tx

8 years relying on 0 conf - guess how many double spends.. 0 - none - never - 0conf merchants begging for double spends to test their systems - doesnt happen

so people dont rely on unreliable mechanisms and get rekt

Irrational behavior is unreliable. Mining nodes that maximize profit, even if they started as a small minority, can be expected to eventually outcompete those that don't. If Core don't do it, people would run a patch instead.

I'll try to go to the next one. Have a lot to say about how the next few generations of development could be done based on actual experience

Looking for a couple of people with Binance or Bybit, no need to provide funds or accounts, the profit is decent. Write in direct

I was thinking on something like extend private key. Like legacy wallets still use on core.

But I was thinking on a paper backup.

Any alternative to dumpwallet and importwallet on taproot wallets on bitcoin core for backup purposes? https://developer.bitcoin.org/reference/rpc/importwallet.html

Hi guys, maybe someone can help me here: is there a way to extract from Bitcoin Core some stats about the totale number of wallets? like an historical series of how the number of wallets with greater than zero balance evolved over time? or just a snapshots of all the wallet balance at a given period of time... than I could derive my stats.

merchants have inherent protection, they dont send you the package if you double spend

Bitcoin Dev

27 September 2023 23:25

just because you had nothing worth stealing, doesnt mean it wont happen

Bitcoin Dev

Yes. Post confirmation (or intricate surrogate of confirmation, as in LN).
If the unconfirmed sufficed in a reliable way, then why use a wasteful blockchain?

life can be inconvenient

yes, thats why it needs to be full rbf by default

Bitcoin Dev

27 September 2023 23:19

double spend prevention for p2p e cash was the idea - i once read that

Bitcoin Dev

27 September 2023 22:47

regarding full-rbf.. gossiping double spend attacks by default in bitcoin core, instead of trying to scale, breaks bitcoin as money.. imho

Bitcoin Dev

27 September 2023 20:06

Claiming that RBF prevention was something which could be relied on was always the scam

can put a taproot wallet on a ledger or trezor hardware and then paper backup the hardware wallet seed. the wallet itself needs to be tapscript BIP431/432 compliant to write script; there's no way paper can do that

I think that's going to be quite computationally expensive. you'd have to replay the chain and do a triple nested for loop... for block, for tx, for vout do you really need the information to be accurate? if not I'd suggest riding on someone else's coat tails. Suggest find an existing chart online from a provider like blocksights or such and use some online chart to table software if the data is not available raw via api.
