Last Notes npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum I suspect we haven’t seen any Bitcoin protocol upgrades since 2021, at least in part, because the proponents of proposed soft forks aren't convinced a UASF would be successful. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In Bitcoin, Explained 95, @npub1s6z…wk4c and I discuss the new Bitcoin Core 28.0 release. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum https://bitcoinmagazine.com/takes/aaron-trump-does-not-give-a-damn-about-bitcoin npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum YES npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum https://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/aaron-oceans-datum-is-tackling-bitcoins-most-pressing-problem npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Thank you! npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum AaronvanW npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Hi @nprofile…mqq0, can I get a custom name please? npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Thanks! npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Is there a way to create a link to your Nostr?

It's 3 months old, but sheds some light on the ARK funding story. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In Bitcoin, Explained 92, @npub1s6z…wk4c and I explain what's new in the upcoming Bitcoin Core 27.0 release. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In Bitcoin, Explained 91, @npub1s6z…wk4c and I are joined once more by @npub18hw…v8du, this time to explain splicing. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Good news. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum The Genesis Book review by former DigiCash employee Jurjen Bos. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Reason published an excerpt from The Genesis Book 🙌 npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum SOLD OUT!! npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Due to a shipping issue, no Genesis Books made it to Bitcoin Atlantis this weekend. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In Bitcoin, Explained 90, @npub1s6z…wk4c, npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum You were right around the corner, too ;) npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In 2011, Room 77 was the first bar in the world to start accepting bitcoin payments. In the years after, it became the best clubhouse the community ever had. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Can request access from the court. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum I'm not in London anymore, but I do have access to the stream and will tune in from time to time. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Ok, for all you fashionistas out there, I did snap one quick photo of Craig with my potatoe from across the street as he paced out of the court house at the end of day 1. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take photos, but I did make a courtroom sketch. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Last hour was more of the same. CSW denies he forged docs, said he'd have done a better job if he did. Called into question expertise/objectivity of digital forensics experts (including his own). Etc. etc. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In block 3 of #COPAvWright (day 2), COPA asked Wright about documents that appeared to have been backdated. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In block 2 of #COPAvWright (day 2), COPA asked CSW about BlackNet, an anonymous marketplace for information, originally proposed by Tim May. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum First break. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Visitor. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum https://bitcoinmagazine.com/legal/the-trial-that-could-end-craig-wrights-satoshi-claim-for-good-started-today npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum https://bitcoinmagazine.com/legal/the-trial-that-could-end-craig-wrights-satoshi-claim-for-good-started-today npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Day 1 recap, icymi. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In my inbox this morning. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Yes, we see evidence on screen. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Sadly, the judge did not wear a wig. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Quick overview of day 1. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Day 1 is over. The 4th and last block was all about documents that CSW admitted only very recently, and whether they should be admitted in court as evidence as it would cause delays. COPA described it as "pulling rabbits from hats", or rather "garbage from bins". npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Another break. Wright's lawyer has been presenting his case. He claimed Wright's vision and credentials match that of Satoshi, while several eye witnesses (Matonis and Andresen) also believe that. He also argued that it's plausible CSW would have destroyed evidence; was suicidal. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Well I'm in the spillover room, where the video link just failed. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum First break. The TLDR so far is that COPA showed CSW has been forging documents to support his Satoshi claim. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum There was some debate over whether Craig Wright would show up at all today. He did. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Brought a special present for the judge. npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum Do you mean Extropianism? (More like a substitute for religion.) npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 Aaron van Wirdum In Bitcoin, Explained 89, @provoost and I take a deep dive into two more pre-Bitcoin electronic cash proposals: Wei Dai's B-money and Hal Finney's RPOW.
