did not know that tbh

... it's a bit more nuanced than that. As others note cryptographic primitives like SHA-256, RIPMED-160 hash functions and also digital signing using secp256k1 ECDSA derived cryptographic keys are the essential building blocks of bitcoin.

What he's ham-fistedly trying to say is that there is no 'encryption' used in bitcoin, to the effect of being too cute for his own good. However, Bitcoin Core wallet bitcoin-qt does use a wallet encryption layer, PKI for BIP 70, SSL for for RPC calls and Tor is enabled by default for peer-to-peer connections when it is available. Find me one wallet that isn't using 'encryption' of some sort. It's an empty, bullshitting statement to say cryptocurrencies do not use cryptography. Guy is a tool.

If they can't say 'orgy' how do they talk about all the group sex they have?

I'd still say 'enthusiastically', but yes, 'surreptitiously'.

You were probably around for when it dawned on everyone that the wallet wasn't even encrypted...

I was in a taxi last night and caught the end of this song. It went like this: 'I'm in love with the shape of your body'. If you can imagine that

About the value of all the coins you don't own because it's a hobby not an investment? Naw, it's cool

I always imagine you looking like Mayor McCheese, but with blind guy sunglasses on.

nope...

"I am in love with the shape of you"
then
"I am in love with your body"

this makes slightly more sense.
most of us been there.
EDIT: I do agree with a "vapid' comment though, it's not "I want to know what love is" or 'Don't cry".

I spent a lot of my time for my meager holdings. I want BTC to do well. I don't want the bears to dump on it anymore than I would want someone to take a dump on a valuable comic book that I was collecting.

What has been going on in ETH land...are they ever going to get their shit together over there?

ETH has been over-performing BTC for a while now. The recent under-performance is just reverting that basis spread.

What does ETH have to do with this thread?

Oh?  You are saying that ETH is bitcoin 2.0?   Shocked   We should not be writing off the flippening, then, right?

Are you in this thread to warn us to move over to ETH?    You don't have enough snot-nosed 12 years olds in the ETH WO thread to share your lovely vision, if there is such a thing?

... and Theymos expects me to venture out of this thread ?!


I wonder where you are getting this idea that theymos expects merit sources to venture outside of their historical stomping grounds because I understood that theymos did not give too many guidelines for merit sources, and therefore there remains quite a decent amount of individual discretion for merit sources and other persons with smerits too....
