    🀯πŸ”₯ OMG! I HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO BITCOIN CORE!!! πŸ”₯ Up until about a month ago I did NOT think this would ever be possible. Bitcoin Core's world-class C++ is just FAR beyond my skills. But a whole team of amazing people & chance encounters led me here. πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡

    I opened a new @SeedSigner PR to optimize PSBT parsing. It's laying the groundwork for more important hardening around PSBTs that'll come in follow-up PRs soon. Nice win-win though to already get a speed increase! 0.8s parse vs 1.9s in v0.8.7.

    I don't love the fact that this tweet has to be part of my proactive self-defense strategy. 1. Walther PDP-F. Not gonna let my small hands get in the way of being efficiently lethal. 🀣 2. Taurus TX22. Ya, I know, .22 ain't stopping no one. That one's just for fun.

    Normalize randomly posting guns that you have in your house for opsec.

    Here's a concrete example. @L0RINC responsibly disclosed that @SeedSigner still shipped a pure python version of secp256k1 as a fallback even though we're configured to run on a WAY FASTER compiled binary. The theoretical risk: What if... (cont'd)

    Replying to @billy_d_21 @sesi_the_man and @newtonick
    It's a language challenge to be precise vs extreme outliers. You can never say: "It's 100% safe" even if it's, say, 99.9999% safe. In that example, it's true to say: "There ARE risks." But that sentence WAY overemphasizes those risks and makes them sound overly scary.

    Huge thanks for @rot13maxi for publishing this on my behalf! I'm somewhat proud of being a twitter poor so I don't have access to creating articles here!
