Working on an article with @SimplestBTCBook regarding dice roll method trade-offs!
What’s better, 16 and 8 sided combo rolls or casino grade 6 sided single rolls?
Manually generating a 256-bit Bitcoin seed by rolling two plastic 16-sided dice and one 8-sided die 23 times, followed by one final 8-sided die roll vs. rolling a single casino-grade 6-sided die 100 times.
The combo method drops your total required actions from 100 events down to just 24 total shakes, cutting human fatigue by 76% to protect you from catastrophic miscounts, typos, and focus errors. Additionally, because 16 sided and 8 sided dice natively map directly to binary and hexadecimal, this combo method allows you to easily look up and choose your final seed words directly from a printed paper list rather than manually typing a tedious string of 100 ones and zeros into a hardware wallet to generate them.
While the molded plastic shapes suffer an estimated minimum physical bias loss of 0.091 bits compared to a perfect casino die, the setup still yields a net safety margin of 255.909 bits of real-world entropy, which remains 100% cryptographically unbreakable.
Regarding entropy loss with either method, even if your dice were so deeply flawed that you somehow lost a massive 50% of your total entropy to manufacturing bias, you would still be left with 128 bits of true entropy, which matches the cryptographic security of a standard 12-word seed phrase used as an industry standard by millions of hardware wallets today.

Replying to @xpugHODL
₿itcoin clubs, around the world, and I know some have already been doing this, (I’m looking at you, @DenverBitDevs …) should absolutely be allocating at least one session per month/quarter to hosting a “dice” night (or some entropy-generating equivalent) to teach people how to create their own unique seed phrase… 🤔😊😎🧡✅💯🎯

If you're new to dice rolls etc, we did a workshop and video breakdown of the many seed generation methods we tested at @DenverBitDevs 3 years ago

I am planning to travel to only two more events this year. There is important work to do, and not much time to do it.
First, I will be giving a talk in Kansas City on 9/5:

Use discount code LOWTIMEPREF for a hefty discount!
🚨Kansas City, get ready.
What happens when quantum computing collides with the world's largest monetary network?
On September 5th, @cryptoquick (Hunter Beast) joins us at The Sovereign Assembly to explore one of the most important long term questions.

Check out the work that @ProofOfKeags is doing and come hear more from Keegan this Thursday at our monthly BitDevs meetup at @SpaceDenver ! RSVP to the event below.

Amidst all of these security research conversations, a helpful tool are rigorous cryptographic proofs.
I would like to draw attention to some work that legendary researcher @ProofOfKeags is doing.
First, read his post here: groups.google.com/g/bitcoind…

Thank you everyone who joined!
I had Grok make a summary of everything discussed, if that helps folks:

Feel free to fork the conversation and ask @Grok questions, and if you do, please share your insights!
.@cryptoquick demonstrating that dialogue is possible.
Very much appreciate meaningful conversation with people against RDTS.

There is no incentive for miners to signal early. Was chatting with my friend last week who runs @medusa_maxfy. A lightning wallet and completely kyc free ₿ and runs miners. He didn’t even know about BIP110. Today he sent me this. LFG!

Excited for @DenverBitDevs tonight at @SpaceDenver!
@robertwarren will be talking about the death of bitcoin mining.
You won't want to miss it! And as usual, please come an hour early if you want to socialize.

I'm sick of eating all of my tokens while my agent scans a giant vault looking for contact information.
So, I built my agent a Stupid Simple Agentic CRM that lives in a private GitHub repo. It's open source, steal it, give it to your agent, make it better.
If you're using a vault style system as a second brain, you realize that vaults are amazing for storing big projects, ideas, and complex processes.
But, the day to day stuff of life also needs to be managed. I don't need an agent scanning an entire vault to tell me who to call.
I can ask my agent, "Hey, where are we on Rep 006 of the 100RepsProject," and they can grab all of the relevant information.
If I ask them who I need to follow up with today, my agent has to scan my entire vault (costly in tokens), when they should have a single source of truth.
So I built a stupid simple version that lives in github.
The structure is a simple, derived index for rapid scanning and individual formatted .yaml files for each contact.
That way your agent never scans the entire CRM, only the index with high level data before digging deeper into their relevant information.
The whole thing is kept in sync with a few python scripts and can accept any .csv file from any source with your contacts.
Open source and free to use.

Austin Bitdevs is going to be going on hiatus after this April meetup.
@puckberley and I are both pretty burnt out running the meetup and frankly most of the community is more focused on learning about ai than bitcoin at the moment (me included).
Hopefully in a few months we'll all be rivatilized and ready to learn about whatever new way @robin_linus found to emulate covenants. In the meantime we'll all be vibe coding the future!

Don't forget! Denver BitDevs at @SpaceDenver tomorrow!
Our guest will be me, to provide some updates on progress being made towards quantum resistance
