Proof of keys? I control my own keys thank you.

Trusted third parties? Isn't that an oxymoron?

I haven't had any coins on an exchange since MtGox. Luckily that mistake only cost me 50BTC. Never again.

Closest thing I have to a trusted third party is my Trezor which I somehow got talked into using against my better judgment. Luckily I only have 5BTC on it. I stopped using it last year after having it for less than half a year.

Obviously cold ("paper" wallet) storage is much more secure. Only I have control over the keys and they're never exposed to the internet except when I sweep a wallet into Mycelium to transfer coins and that's only small amounts for short periods of time.  

This is why it's good to spread your stash between dozens or hundreds of small wallets. My biggest single wallet has a little over 30 coins in it (from pulling out what I had at Cavirtex after being Goxed) but I'm almost scared to sweep it to split it into smaller wallets because that would entail risking that many coins at once by exposing them to the internet.

I suppose I should empty my Trezor on Genesis Block Day as a way to assert ownership of my keys instead of trusting Trezor. Then again why wait until Jan. 3?

Did we find a bottom??

[Toxic2040]

Fusion generators we got, hot ones, they just aren't significantly over unity yet.

look up "Commercial breakeven"

Tritium sounds messy. What are the waste products?

correct, tritium is 'messy', dirty is a better word ... lots of irradiated componentry blasted with high energy neutrons, still 'cleaner' than most fission processes on balance though.

aneutronic fusion looks v. promising

Can you decipher this for me?

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/275032510_New_scheme_to_produce_aneutronic_fusion_reactions_by_laser-accelerated_ions

yep, i can.

It is fairly trivial to produce reactions in this day and age. Confinement is another story. What makes this process interesting is a couple of things imho. The high fidelity achieved in initiating collisions and the low emission of alpha particles in the zone of interest during collisions.

tl;dr We are still not close enough to consider viable energy production in the near to medium time frames.

Could you bottom people at least show healthy weight bottoms.

And yes it feels like a good win, only one a lot of HU tournaments against 1 of the other Guys, but lost to HU tournaments ( 1 with QQ against Q6 flop xxx turn river 66 , and one backdoor straight so on other flop 5% for the other Guy ..... ) should of won 2 more

So paper wallets (encrypted I assume) are the only thing that you consider to be absolutely safe? also how do you create them? live cd on normal net connected pc (disconnected when creating paper wallet), some kind of specialist device, or air-gapped computer that has never seen the internet?

Does anyone else here think ledgers or trezors are insecure? would choosing your own seed for them, rather then random one provided on setup of device, help you feel secure with it?

I used to use paper wallets but now using a hardware wallet, wondering if maybe I shouldn't.

[realr0ach]

next year in Jersulaem any one?

No thank you.  Perhaps check Marcus of Tel Aviv.

old school would be air-gapped computer, virgin never touched the internet, with the wireless card physically removed. Direct connection to a printer that is only used for the purpose of making paper wallets with no wireless capabilities.

I use a ledger now, ( still have the air-gapped with armory signing offline ) I really like the ledger. Most vulnerabilities appear to be when someone has physical access to your ledger device. ( nothing is perfect but I like the hardware wallets.)

I use an old computer with no wifi adapter, no ethernet cable, and a printer that has never been connected to an internet-capable computer.

Print spoolers can be hacked.

For ultimate security, keep multiple encrypted copies offsite in multiple locations.

As an aside on a personal note, I created over 1,080 images this last year for your viewing pleasure. That is even with the 6 month sabbatical I enjoyed over the summer. I plan on starting fresh charts after new years but will break out the OR when appropriate.

Ok, one more question. Have you got things setup in a way that if something were to happen to you your family could access the coins? This is a big concern of mine.

Not bad, but the Y key on the author's keyboard is intermittent.

Does anyone edit any more?

Here's a healthy one for you:

Yeah, he should've had someone proofread that at least.

Thanks for your contributions buddy, and happy new year!

I've created approximately 600 shitposts this year, and have posted 24 ass pictures.
