<br> Mark Erhardt: Yeah, I think I came across this question again when I was reviewing Mastering Bitcoin 3rd Edition. Greg or t-bast, is there anything that you think the audience would benefit from knowing about those discussions? Mike Schmidt: Greg, for folks that may not be completely sure of the timelines for LN-Symmetry, they may say, “Hey, you had Greg on talking about Lightning, but LN-Symmetry wasn’t even in the LN Summit notes”. Maybe you can kind of put it to rest why that wasn’t a main discussion item during the meeting and why? The rest of this post will be about my experience building the dashboard. According to a Rest of World expert, the Singaporean government invested $275 million in the FTX exchange between the autumn of 2021 and the winter of this year through the state-owned investment vehicle Temasek. We have Stack Exchange questions we’re going to go through. And that’s consensus change, and people working on spec details aren’t going to spend a lot of time lobbying for consensus changes, because they’re understandable. Bastien Teinturier: Hmm, on the first one, it was just about using threshold signatures, and I think there are cryptographic details to iron out before it becomes a real possibility. ” And Andrew Poelstra answered this, providing some background, some other hand-calculation verification techniques that he’s used previously, including Codex32, and he estimates that it would take, even using some tricks and some helper lookup tables, that it would take about 1,500 hours to do that, 36 weeks of a full-time job, even using some of those tricks that he outlined in his answer. Murch, I’m sure you dug through that and you have thoughts on his answer and the question generally? And, Murch, you asked and answered this question, and in your question you noted that usually decisions, like determining the ranges of values for something, involves binary powers of 2, which would point to something like 16 segwit versions or 32 segwit versions, but we have 17 segwit versions. It was pretty wild to me how much it seemed like Poelstra had thought about this, and it almost seemed like he was waiting for someone to ask this question on the Stack Exchange to be able to give such a comprehensive answe<br>/p>
Mark Erhardt: Yeah, I was also surprised on how much Andrew had to write about that, but yeah, it turns out that humans are not computers, and while computers are good at some things, they are not great at other things, and while humans are good at some things, they’re not very good at calculating hashes and doing elliptic curve math on paper. So, it turns out that we have constants for some numbers in Bitcoin script, and there are single-byte opcodes that can express these constants. So, I don’t know if there’s much to talk about there. Traders can even create their strategies without even having much knowledge about coding. Bitcoin system is entirely peer-to-peer, traders will not get interrupt by any third-party. It must also be mentioned here for traders that there is a lot of argument about which is the best trading strategy to use i.e. whether technical analysis or news trading which can b<br>u<br>d.
The global cryptocurrency market cap was trading around $1.07 trillion, falling 0.35% in the last 24 hours. And frankly, I don’t think that it is whatsoever reasonable for anyone to do multiple hours of calculation just to do transactions, let alone multiple months and, yeah, so I don’t know. Mark Erhardt: I would say that working with the people at BitGo for a few years has made me way more paranoid, and I don’t think that anytime soon I’m going to be nearly as paranoid to want to do this. So, this could sound like, I guess from a priority perspective, I don’t think it’s quite there. So, from that perspective, it’s kind of done. The first one, at first I thought this was kind of a funny question, but I actually got a lot of interest on the Stack Exchange, which is, “How can I manually, on paper, calculate a Bitcoin public key from a private key? It’s time for the monthly segment about the Stack Exchange, Murch’s favorite Q&A section on the Highly recommended Internet sit<br>> about Bitcoin.
