I'm not saying a quantum computer will enable a better currency, or be like a blockchain in any way. The centralization of the quantum computer is irrelevant. Are you familiar with Shor's algorithm? The point is it can potentially calculate a bitcoin private key from a signature quickly, rather than the billions of years it would take a traditional computer. The operator of such a quantum computer could derive private keys from signed bitcoin transactions, and thus steal bitcoin. I'm not saying you should fear it, I'm saying there is a proof of concept, and it may happen eventually.
Bitcoin does not fit my definition of a quantum computer because it does not use specialized hardware to exploit quantum mechanics to perform calculations in parallel, like factoring large numbers, very quickly.

I really like to see @npub1cas…pt92 doing the Lord’s work to audit mints. Is there any way for a #cashu mint to prove its reserves?

TOR is good. The Tailscale and Wireguard apps allow UmbrelOS to act as a VPN server, not a client.

Are there known issues syncing state between different #cashu clients? My desktop browser at cashu.me shows a different balance than #macadamia on iOS. Same account, same mint.

Hi @npub1rs2…c4u6 I paid 1500 sats for video generation. I let it hang for about 30 minutes and got nothing. May I have my sats back?

What are the best #bitcoin wallets to demonstrate BTC and #lightning to beginners? Looking for the “it just works” feel, with fast onboarding and automated lightning. #yopaki is really promising, but I’m wondering what others are out there.

The site is a black screen on my phone and desktop browser. It works in desktop incognito, but I logged in and it shows a 0 sat balance, which is incorrect.

All good points. Maybe I’ll talk myself into one of those Canaan heater/miner devices. Much better hash rate than lottery miners.

Seems good, but my point is mining will never be profitable for me. I would spend more on electricity than the value of the sats I’d earn. So I’m better off just buying sats. Sounds selfish but this is the calculation most are doing. I’m wondering if there’s any economic incentive to support mining decentralization in another way.

2025-01-29 20:42:15

How can #bitcoin plebs profitably contribute to mining decentralization? Solo mining is a nice altruistic contribution, but most won’t bother because there’s no incentive, especially in places with high energy prices.
Can I invest in pools implementing Stratum V2? Maybe the economics of this approach don’t make sense. Looking for ideas.

It's all off-chain. People buying and hodling on exchanges, ETFs, transacting with lightning. Good for scaling but...don't forget to self-custody.

My #AlbyHub wallet is not working with #Damus. Any troubleshooting tips? Alby Hub is running on my local network and I have an open channel. https://image.nostr.build/c42b748fe8d55f9a0d3a4abef43fa09a54bb81dbf501179c77aad98210eb53a6.jpg

That’s the same for big-block bitcoin forks—modest hardware can still run a pruned node. I guess Kaspa’s main advantage is in bandwidth usage, right? Due to mining blocks in parallel.

Very frustrating. #coinos seems great, but not if my sats vanish into thin air.
