Max & Q discuss the ongoing legal battle involving the Samourai Wallet developers, who are facing charges from the US government. They explore the recent developments, including the revelation that the prosecutors withheld critical evidence that could potentially dismiss one of the charges. This evidence, from FinCEN, indicated that Samourai Wallet's noncustodial design did not qualify as a money service business, contradicting one of the charges. They also touch on the implications of the Blanche memo, which suggests a shift in how the DOJ approaches crypto-related cases.Our second major topic is the controversy surrounding the op_return limit in Bitcoin transactions. Max & Q explore the arguments for and against removing the 80-byte limit, with proponents arguing for network efficiency and harm reduction, while opponents fear blockchain bloat and a shift away from Bitcoin's financial focus. They discuss the implications of these changes on the network, including potential impacts on fee estimation and miner centralization.

Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.In this episode, Max speaks with Will Jager from The Rage to discuss the ongoing battle for privacy in the digital age. They hit on the complexities surrounding the Samourai Wallet case and the broader implications of government overreach on software developers. Will shares insights into the challenges faced by independent journalists in covering these critical issues and the importance of supporting platforms that strive to maintain journalistic integrity. They also touch on the evolving landscape of privacy legislation in the EU and the potential consequences for encryption and personal freedoms.Visit The Rage: https://www.therage.co Support The Rage: https://geyser.fund/project/therageFollow Will: https://x.com/WillisJagerIMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comVALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Paynym @ https://paynym.rs/+misfit- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME STICKERS @ https://www.ungovernablemisfits.com/shop/FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

We discuss the launch of the Passport Core in stealth mode, a sleek new version of the beloved Passport hardware wallet, now available for order.

Welcome back to another episode of The Confab. This episode, I catch up with my good friend, Badders, who is not only the creator of our podcast's intro music but also a return guest and colleague from our time at 21ism. Badders and I explore the concept of sovereignty and the idea of separating oneself from government control. We discuss the notion of the government as a legal fiction, a corporate entity that operates through trickery and deception, and how individuals can potentially extricate themselves from this system. Badders shares his journey of living a self-sustainable life in rural South of France, where he and his family have embraced a lifestyle of independence and connection with nature. We also touch upon the darker aspects of history and the influence of powerful families and organizations that have shaped the current global system. Badders shares his insights from diving deep into various historical and conspiracy theories, exploring the roots of satanic freemasonry, mind control, and the manipulation of global events by elite families. It's a conversation that challenges the status quo and encourages listeners to explore these topics further, offering a glimpse into the potential for a life of true freedom and independence.https://www.thesovereignproject.live/IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comVALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Paynym @ https://paynym.rs/+misfit- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME CLOTHING @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/- BUY SOME ART!! @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

Welcome back to Monero Monthly, where Max and Seth dive into the past month in the world of Monero. They cover key topics, exciting updates, and questions from the community, delivering top-notch information with a touch of misfit flair.P2P ExchangesMediated swaps:LocalMonero (may it RIP, will see if something takes it's place)Haveno via RetoSwap (fiat XMR and crypto XMR)Bisq (BTC XMR)Robosats (BTC XMR)AMMsSerai (coming soonTM)Atomic SwapsBasicSwapUnstoppableSwapGeneralRucknium, a researcher, has released his work on statistical analysis of ring signatures in Monerohttps://github.com/Rucknium/OSPEAD/blob/main/README.mdAt current Monero ring size of 16, the theoretical minimum attack success through completely random guessing would be 1/16 = 6.25%. According to preliminary estimates, an adversary could take advantage of the divergence between the real spend age distribution and the status quo decoy distribution to achieve an attack success probability of 23.5%, on average, since the August 2022 hard fork. This corresponds to an effective ring size of 4.2. The attack success probability prior to August 2022 may be higher, but this was not measured due to time constraints.Monero can easily scale to Bitcoin's transaction throughput on-chainhttps://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1iimio0/this_is_how_many_transactions_monero_can_handle/Doesn't account for self-custodial Lightning transactions, of courseFantastic post on Monero's upcoming addressing scheme update, CARROThttps://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1iph8fz/more_vitamins_for_monero_with_carrot_part_1/Monero Core Team posts funding transparency reporthttps://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1iixgk9/monero_general_fund_transparency_report_february/Explain Monero Core team!Software updatesCake Wallet releases v4.23.0 and v4.23.2Monero passphrase support for new and existing walletshttps://blog.cakewallet.com/cake-wallet-releases-improvements-to-zano-ledger-ethereum-and-more-v4-23-2-2/https://blog.cakewallet.com/cake-wallet-zano-integration-and-monero-passphrases-v4-23/Monero v0.18.4.0 is right around the cornerhttps://monero.observer/selsta-posts-monero-v0.18.4.0-release-to-do-list/https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/9758Links From the Episodehttps://mynymbox.io/Monerujo updatehttps://docs.cakewallet.com/IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comVALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Paynym @ https://paynym.rs/+misfit- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME CLOTHING @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/- BUY SOME ART!! @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/CAKE WALLEThttps://cakewallet.comCake Wallet is an open-source, non-custodial wallet available on Android, iOS, macOS, and Linux.Features:- Built-in Exchange: Swap easily between Bitcoin and Monero.- User-Friendly: Simple interface for all users.Monero Users:- Batch Transactions: Send multiple payments at once.- Faster Syncing: Optimized syncing via specified restore heights- Proxy Support: Enhance privacy with proxy node options.Bitcoin Users:- Coin Control: Manage your transactions effectively.- Silent Payments: Static bitcoin addresses- Batch Transactions: Streamline your payment process.Thank you Cake Wallet for sponsoring the show!FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

Welcome back to the Bitcoin Brief! In this unique episode, I caught up with Bitcoin Q&A, Dice Rolls, Black Coffee, and Ben Gunn at his site. We explored the area, checked out the new CNC machine, and enjoyed a chaotic yet fun gathering with quad bikes, motocross bikes, and dogs running around. Despite the audio challenges due to background noise, it was a fantastic reunion.We had a barbecue, thanks to Dice Rolls, who cooked up a storm with chicken, sausages, and more, despite some equipment challenges. The atmosphere was lively, with discussions ranging from Bitcoin updates to the new dojo on Start Nine, which I recorded separately with Jordan.We also touched on the latest developments in Bitcoin and privacy tools, including the integration of Cake Wallet with Passport Prime. The conversation veered into the realm of Nostr and its potential to revolutionise digital identity and privacy, despite some concerns about security and key management.In the midst of all this, we took a moment to appreciate the support from our listeners and community, who continue to boost the show and share it widely.

Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.Sir Spencer (Wolf of Kansas City) from Bowl After Bowl grabs a seat to discuss podcasting, family and culture.

Verifiability of Supplyhttps://sethforprivacy.com/posts/dispelling-monero-fud/#you-cant-audit-the-monero-supplyhttps://www.moneroinflation.comThis is probably the most common point of FUD brought against Monero, and is caused by the complexity and nuance involved in understanding how supply audits work in cryptocurrencies.Monero's supply can be easily audited by anyone running a Monero node, but this process does rely on the soundness of the monerod software implementation and the validity of cryptography used in range-proofs. These range-proofs allow it to be mathematically proven that the inputs and outputs of each transaction add up to zero without revealing amounts, ensuring that the supply is sound and not inflated in any way. Every node on the network is validating these range-proofs in each transaction every time a transaction is first seen, and validating all historical range-proofs when initially syncing.A manual audit is possible because coinbase transactions (those transactions that are mining rewards in each block including issuance + transaction fees) are intentionally transparent and amounts of these outputs are not obfuscated in any way. Monero users running a node can simply validate these totals on-demand, and all node owners are constantly verifying the amounts in transactions via range-proofs.Unlike Bitcoin, however, Monero users cannot simply do “napkin math” and validate the supply by manually adding up UTXO amounts, as transactions are never known-spent by the network, only by the parties involved in each specific transaction. This does force some added reliance on code/cryptography over Bitcoin, but as-of-yet I know of no onevalidating the Bitcoin supply this way. It does remain a valuable advantage of a transparent cryptocurrency, though it comes at the cost of the transactional privacy of every user in the system.GeneralNew primer on full-chain membership proofs available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jc8Kc0WogAIFantastic Forbes article on Monero:https://www.forbes.com/sites/boazsobrado/2025/01/18/is-monero-keeping-bitcoins-cypherpunk-dream-alive/BTCPay team being amazing and migrating Monero support to a plugin for v2.xhttps://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/538#note_28197https://github.com/btcpayserver/btcpayserver/pull/6535https://github.com/btcpayserver/btcpayserver-monero-pluginNapoly and Deverick Apollo will help to transition the plugin to the Monero community and build out multi-wallet supporthttps://monero.observer/napoly-deverickapollo-ccs-proposal-develop-btcpayserver-monero-plugin/Software UpdatesHaveno keeps getting better and betterv1.0.18 released: https://monero.observer/woodser-releases-haveno-v1.0.18-fixes-improvements/Can now buy your first Monero without a security deposit by finding a seller and communicating a passwordhttps://monero.observer/haveno-v1.0.15-released-support-buying-monero-without-security-deposit/https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno/issues/1464#issuecomment-2545298727RetoSwap is the current live implementation of Haveno, have used to test and has been fantastic, quick, and easyhttps://retoswap.comMonero passphrase support in Cake Wallet v4.23.0Easy way to run a Monero daemon on your laptop or desktop gets even betterhttps://monero.observer/everoddandeven-releases-monero-daemon-gui-v1.1.0-toughness/Mining MoneroCPU mining vs ASICsp2pool vs solo miningMining via gupax on desktopshttps://gupax.ioMining via p2pool + xmrig on servershttps://sethforprivacy.com/guides/run-a-p2pool-node/Mining Monero via decentralized p2pool keeps getting betterGupaxx update v1.7.0 released:https://monero.observer/cyrix126-releases-gupaxx-v1.7.0-ui-improvements-new-features-fixes/p2pool v4.3 released:https://monero.observer/schernykh-releases-p2pool-v4.3-initial-sync-improvements/XMRChat BoostsYou just leveled up
In this episode of PMM, hosts Jon and Max discuss Jon and Bassload's upcoming energy Q+A at Pubkey in New York.They DELVE into the Meshtadel Super Nodes: Ben Gunn's forestry and manufacturing ventures in the UK, and Untapped Growth's cattle ranching in Oklahoma, both seen as fostering community and self-sufficiency. The discussion touches on the challenges of finding reliable human capital for these initiatives, drawing parallels to the flaky nature of modern society.The episode also includes a philosophical musing from Bubba on simplicity versus complexity in intelligence. Jon shares his written piece on preserving punk culture through modern means, advocating for self-reliance, community building, and maintaining punk's rebellious spirit in today's context. They talk about maintaining emotional capital amidst the struggles of community building, the importance of not selling out, and encourage listeners to engage in activities like homesteading, learning new skills, and contributing to local communities as a new form of punk resistance. The episode concludes with an invitation to Lake Satoshi and a call to stay true to the punk ethos within the Ungovernable Misfits' community.IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comVALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Paynym @ https://paynym.rs/+misfit- DONATE via Paynym to JON @ https://paynym.rs/+idealpresident82- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME CLOTHING @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/- BUY SOME ART!! @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/BIFROST MANUFACTURINGBifrost Manufacturing offers custom and mass-produced manufacturing services like CNC Plasma Cutting, Water Jet Cutting, Industrial and Consumer FDM services, DMLS printing, Welding and Fabrication, and product design and engineering.

In this episode of The Confab, I reconnect with my eccentric yet brilliant friend, Ben Gunn. We dive into a catch-up session, reflecting on our last podcast and the whirlwind of events that have unfolded since.

In part 2 of the 2024 Year In Review, we check into the ever-changing landscape of Bitcoin mining statistics. Over the past year, the hash value has seen a significant drop, impacting miners' earnings. We discuss the challenges and opportunities in the mining industry, including the timing of buying mining gear and the innovative projects undertaken by the community, such as solar mining builds, Solo Sundays and yes.. shitaxes.It was the first year of a show dedicated to Meshtadel meanderings titled PMM, which stands for whatever you want it to stand for. Pastuerized Milk is Malnutrition, Pleb Made Mechandise, Personal Meshtadel Meetings...the list goes on. Anyways, it was a great year for PMM, exploring many broad topics and creating a show that adds to the pulse of a cicrular economy. In 2025, we hope to add to that pulse.Lastly, we go over our specials that ended 2024 breaking down the Ashigaru episode and it's significance. Also, Foundation has a new device. Not sure if you knew! So check that out. It's been a wild ride of a year and we hope to keep the pace up for you guys in 2025. A lot of big things on the way and we hope you'll continue to support this grassroots initiative as much as you can.IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comLINCOIN MINING Struggling to keep up with the mining scene? @lincoinmining provides cutting-edge software and strategies to maximize your ROI.

The Bitcoin Brief is a show hosted by Max and Bitcoin QnA. We cover important updates in the world of bitcoin and open source software. It is our imperative to provide some education along the way too, so that the misfits can expand their knowledge base and become more sovereign as a result. We do this every second week to keep our listeners informed without having to dedicate hours every day to keep on top of developments. We break things down in a simple and fun way and we welcome questions or topic suggestions via Podcasting 2.0 boosts.SHOW DETAILS We discuss the recent events in New York, including a multisig workshop and a Bitcoin trivia night, highlighting the successful launch of Foundation's Passport Prime hardware.We explore the legal troubles of Craig Wright, who has been sentenced to a suspended prison term for contempt of court, and the ongoing legal battle involving Samurai Wallet, which has been postponed to March 2025. The episode also covers the positive news from the Tornado Cash case where a motion to dismiss was initiated by Roman Storm's legal team. Additionally, we discuss vulnerabilities in the Wabi Sabi protocol and the Lightning Network, urging users to update their software to protect their privacy and funds. The episode concludes with a festive AI-generated song written by Max, celebrating the ungovernable spirit of the podcast's community and wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comSPONSORSFOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

In this episode, we dive into an exciting announcement with Zach and Q from Foundation. After two years of hard work, they unveil the team's latest creation, the Passport Prime, a revolutionary personal security platform. Unlike traditional hardware wallets, Passport Prime combines the features of a hardware wallet with those of a YubiKey, offering multi-factor authentication, encrypted storage, and an extendable app platform for third-party developers. This open app platform aims to empower developers to build security applications, contrasting with Ledger's closed ecosystem.Zach and Q discuss the meticulous design process behind Passport Prime, highlighting its unique industrial design, including a curved screen and CNC'd aluminum chassis. They emphasize the device's durability, featuring Gorilla Glass and a high-quality IPS touchscreen display.The conversation shifts to the device's capabilities, which extend beyond a typical hardware wallet. Passport Prime supports various applications, including a 2FA codes app, a security key application, a file browser with a unique AirLock feature, and a seed vault app. These features make it a Swiss army knife for personal security, allowing users to securely store and manage their digital assets.KeyOS, the operating system powering Passport Prime, is introduced as a microkernel-based OS written in Rust, offering modularity, resilience, and enhanced security. The open-source nature of KeyOS allows third-party developers to create apps for the platform, with Cake Wallet being the first to integrate.The episode also covers the innovative Quantum Link Bluetooth, which ensures secure communication between Passport Prime and smartphones.

"Do not excessively covet swords and daggers made by famous masters. Even if you can own a sword or dagger worth 10,000 pieces (hiki, equivalent of 10 mon), it can be overcome by 100 spears each worth 100 pieces. Therefore, use the 10,000 pieces to procure 100 spears, and arm 100 men with them. You can in this manner defend yourself in time of war."- The Seventeen-Article Injunction of Asakura ToshikageIn this special episode, I had the privilege of speaking with a developer from the Ashigaru open source project, who joined us under the pseudonym Ashigaru Dev to discuss their work on Ashigaru. To protect their identity, they used a voice changer, highlighting the risks faced by privacy advocates in today's digital landscape.We discussed the motivations behind the creation of the Ashigaru, a project born from the need to continue the legacy of the Samourai Wallet after its development ceased. The Ashigaru team, composed of long-time users and developers familiar with the programming languages, initially made improvements for personal use before realising the broader community could benefit from their work.The conversation covered the enhancements made to the software, including updates to the post-mix spend features and the expanded Paynym ecosystem. We discussed the challenges of maintaining privacy in Bitcoin transactions without tools like Whirlpool and explored alternative methods such as peer-to-peer coin joins and atomic swaps.We also touched on the importance of building trust within the community, especially for non-technical users who rely on others to verify the safety and integrity of open-source projects. The Ashigaru team is committed to transparency and encourages user feedback to improve the application.In the wake of the Samourai project being dismantled by government decree, remember this: do not be overly attached to the singular, high-profile software solutions that once defined the success. Its value can be matched by tens of hundreds of developers, each armed with simple, robust, and widely accessible tools. Let's use the spirit, the knowledge, and the resources we have to forge a new initiative, one that embodies the strength of many rather than the complexity of one. In this way, we can continue to innovate, resist, and thrive, proving that multi-pronged resilience is greater than any single point of failure.LINKS:ASHIGARU - https://ashigaru.rsDONATE TO ASHIGARU - https://ashigaru.rs/donate/DOJO OPENSOURCE PROJECT - https://github.com/Dojo-Open-Source-ProjectSENTINEL - https://github.com/wanderingking072/sentinel-androidASHIGARU GITEA (TOR) - http://ashicodepbnpvslzsl2bz7l2pwrjvajgumgac423pp3y2deprbnzz7id.onionDONATE TO SAMOURAI - https://www.p2prights.org/donate.htmlFREESAMOURAI - https://freesamourai.comBTC SESSIONS DOJO VIDEO - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aykJ4eP-VeoK3TAN DOJO VIDEO - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_It4xEIwRAVALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Paynym @ https://paynym.rs/+misfit- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME CLOTHING @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/- BUY SOME ART!! @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/CAKE WALLEThttps://cakewallet.comCake Wallet is an open-source, non-custodial wallet available on Android, iOS, macOS, and Linux.Features:- Built-in Exchange: Swap easily between Bitcoin and Monero.- User-Friendly: Simple interface for all users.Monero Users:- Batch Transactions: Send multiple payments at once.- Faster Syncing: Optimized syncing via specified restore heights- Proxy Support: Enhance privacy with proxy node options.Bitcoin Users:- Coin Control: Manage your transactions effectively.- Silent Payments: Static bitcoin addresses- Batch Transactions: Streamline your payment process.Thank you Cake Wallet for sponsoring the show!FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.On this episode, permaculture expert, pleb miner and Meshtadellian Rev Hodl rejoins the show to talk about nostr, cultural capital and the happenings on the Michigan homestead.SHOW DISCUSSIONRev Hodl discusses his efforts to build a self-sustaining, circular economy centered around his Bitcoin-focused homestead. He explains how he integrates various systems like rabbit farming, cannabis cultivation, and Bitcoin mining to maximize efficiency and minimize waste. A key focus is developing a local Bitcoin community in Michigan, where Rev Hodl shares his knowledge and excess production with other Bitcoiners. This allows him to distribute his natural capital, like food and seeds, while also learning from others and strengthening the cultural capital of the group. Rev Hodl emphasizes the importance of avoiding centralized, KYC-based interactions in favor of building a decentralized, peer-to-peer economy within the Bitcoin community. He sees this as crucial for developing true resilience and self-reliance, rather than relying on traditional financial systems.Throughout, Rev Hodl highlights the permaculture principles guiding his approach - minimizing waste, maximizing productivity, and cultivating mutually beneficial relationships. He sees this as a model for how Bitcoin communities can thrive by focusing on the holistic development of various forms of capital, not just financial.8 Forms of Captial: https://www.7thgenerationdesign.com/creating-resilient-wealth/Michigan Bitcoiners: https://michiganbitcoiner.com/Nostr: https://njump.me/npub1f5pre6wl6ad87vr4hr5wppqq30sh58m4p33mthnjreh03qadcajs7gwt3z1st Podcast Appearance: https://ungovernablemisfits.com/podcast/bud-bunnies-bitcoin-and-permaculture/IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comSHOW SPONSORSFOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

Block Version Number in BitcoinThe block version number in Bitcoin serves as an indicator of which set of consensus rules a block follows. It's also used to signal miners' readiness or support for upcoming protocol upgrades. Over time, block version numbers have evolved from simple sequential numbers (like versions 1 through 4) to a more complex bit-field system, which allows for multiple upgrades to be signaled at once.From last time you badgered me I made some notes. Evolution of Block VersionsEarly Versions (1-4):These were straightforward indicators of protocol changes. For example:Version 1 was used from the Genesis block until March 2013.Version 2 came with BIP 34, authored by Gavin Andresen, it added the block height to the coinbase transaction and was activated at Block 227,931 on March 27, 2013.Version 3 enforced stricter signature validation with BIP 66, authored by Pieter Wuille, it ensured correct DER encoding of signatures. It activated at Block 363,725 on July 4, 2015.Version 4 enabled CheckLockTimeVerify (CLTV) with BIP 65, also authored by Pieter Wuille, it allowed for time-locked transactions and activated at Block 388,381 on December 11, 2015.Then come the Version Bits format:Bitcoin upgrades were becoming increasingly complex, the block version system transitioned to the Version Bits signaling mechanism, which allows multiple protocol changes to be signaled at once using specific bits in the block version field, allowing miners to signal support for up to 29 features simultaneously, each represented by a specific bit in the 32-bit version field.When Segregated Witness (SegWit) was introduced, Bitcoin transitioned from simple block versions to the complex numbers seen today.Special Note: before we review the important key version bits, I have to make something clear. These version numbers are more than just sequential; they signal specific changes using bitsI am going to call out version numbers like 536 870 912, which is is the decimal representation of the hexadecimal value 0x20000000The full number 536870912 in binary is 00100000000000000000000000000000.“536" doesn't have standalone significance. It's just a part of the decimal value when the binary representation of 0x20000000 is converted into base 10 (which equals 536870912).The important part lies in the bitwise representation, where the leading bits "001" in the binary form, are reserved for signaling purposes, indicating that version bits are being used.But for the purpose of conveying version numbers to a human (this human being you Max) we will use the decimal representation instead of 0x2 nd a bunch of zeros or 001 and 29 more zeros.Now to the bit version section…Version 536 870 912 indicated readiness for SegWit, introduced through BIP 141 (authored by Pieter Wuille). SegWit was activated on August 24, 2017, at Block 481,824.Version 536 870 913 was used to signal support for BIP 91 and authored by James Hilliard. BIP 91 lowered the threshold required for SegWit's activation. It was locked in at Block 477,120 on July 20, 2017.Version 536 870 914 and 536 870 916 continued signaling for SegWit deployment through various BIPs.How It Works TodayToday, miners use the Version Bits system to signal support for new upgrades, and they must keep their block version numbers in line with consensus rules. Version numbers like 536870912 (SegWit) are still recognized by the network, and each bit in the version number, a miner can signal support for different soft forks simultaneously.For instance, if the network is ready for a future upgrade, miners will flip the corresponding bit in their block version number, signaling their support for the upgrade. The rest of the version field remains intact, allowing multiple soft forks to be signaled at the same time.First 3 bits = 001: Reserved and indicate version bits are being used.Remaining 29 bits: Available for signaling specific soft forks or protocol changes. Each of these bits corresponds to a different potential feature being activated.Car Analogy for Bitcoin Block Version NumbersLet's compare Bitcoin's block version numbers to Fords and how their cars evolved from simple model numbers to VIN numbers that represent various features and changes in their design over the years.The Model T and Block Version 1:Just like Ford's Model T, the first Bitcoin blocks (version 1) were basic, so basic, buyers didn't even have a choice in what color vehicle they could buy “you can have a car in any color so long as its black. Similar to early block versions that had no special features—the first blocks had no complex rules or signals, just the essentials.Evolving Model Years and Version Numbers:As Ford expanded its lineup, more models came out, and so did the need for differentiating cars beyond going from model T to Model A. Apply that to Bitcoin, version 1 to 4 were indicators of upgrades like block height (BIP-34), stricter validation (BIP-66), and time-locked transactions (BIP-65) can be compared to model T to model AComplex Version Bits = New Ford VIN Structure:Eventually, car manufacturers standardized more details in its VIN numbers to reflect all the specifics of each model the world manufacturers identifier, vehicle description section, and the vehicle identifier section—just like Bitcoin's version bits system, which allows for more granular signaling.The VIN was introduced in 1965 to track each vehicle's specifications. The first two characters of the VIN, such as “1F,” identify Ford and where the vehicle was built. 1F is a Ford built in the USA.For example, characters 4-8 in a Ford VIN indicate engine type, body style, and model, much like Bitcoin's complex version numbers (536 870 912 or 0x20000000) that signal specific features like SegWit (BIP-141) or BIP-91 activation.Or version 536 870 916 (0x20000004) signals both SegWit and BIP-91—much like how characters in the Ford VIN specify the engine, body, and trim level of a car.VINs were more standardized in the 80's. Ford's VIN numbers now include production year, plant location, and a unique serial number to distinguish every car (that's characters 10-17). Likewise, Bitcoin's version bits (introduced with version 536870912) can signal multiple protocol changes at once. Just as the tenth digit in a VIN tells you the model year (e.g., “J” for 1988), a Bitcoin version number can tell you which upgrades are active. Bits 1-3: Reserved for version signaling format (for example, the top three bits set to 001 for soft fork signaling).Bits 4-32 can each represent a specific feature or soft fork proposal, meaning multiple upgrades can be signaled simultaneously within the same block version field.ConclusionIn both cases, as the products (Fords and Bitcoin blocks) became more complex, the identifiers also became more detailed. From simple model numbers like T and A (Max likes T & A) to VIN numbers, Bitcoin's version bits both allow for greater customization and finer control.Like how car manufacturers track and signal changes to its cars over time with VINs, Bitcoin uses block version numbers to ensure the network continues to evolve. Bitcoin is still Bitcoin, and a Ford is still a Ford regardless of the fact Henry Ford is dead, and Satoshi is not Craig Wright, or Adam Back, or Peter Todd.

Max, notorious for his late-night, self-absorbed, inconsiderate, and mostly aloof phone calls, once rang Jon at an ungodly hour to dig into the details of Bitcoin block components. As Jon was chasing a raccoon out of his chicken coop, Max's questions came pouring in, demanding clarity on block templates, candidate blocks, and the components of a completed block. Despite pausing to bust a cap in a raccoon's ass, Jon explained that miners use a block template as a guide to construct a candidate block, ensuring each field adheres to network protocols. The components are version number, previous block's hash, Merkle root, timestamp, difficulty target, and nonce. Even while covered in chicken blood, feathers, and brains, Jon's dedication to unraveling the complexities of Bitcoin mining for Max was unwavering.Let's break down the block components that Max was so eager to understand.Block Version Number: This indicates the version of the block and can be used to implement changes to its structure and format. It can also signal a miner's choice on software and protocol upgrades or changes. The interplay between signaling, activation, and their relationship to soft forks is an intriguing topic, though it is beyond the scope of this discussion. It's more than likely Max will call again to discuss this in greater detail.Previous Block Hash: This serves as a reference to the previous block in the blockchain and is used to link blocks together, ensuring that the miner is working on the longest valid chain.Merkle Root: This is a hash of all the transactions included in the block, ensuring their integrity and validity. The Merkle root is a key component of the Bitcoin block header, summarizing the contents of all transactions into a single, 32-byte value. Transactions are grouped into pairs and hashed together, forming new sets of hashes until a single hash, the Merkle root, is generated. This root is included in the block header and broadcast to the network whenever a new block is mined. When a node receives a block, it uses the Merkle root to verify the integrity of the transactions without validating each one individually. Timestamp: This records the time at which the block was created. The timestamp is derived from the miner's local clock and can vary based on the clock's accuracy and synchronization with other network nodes. If a block is propagated slowly across the network, the timestamp might not reflect the actual creation time. The timestamp is based on the number of seconds from Midnight, January 1, 1970.Difficulty Target: This value sets the target for the mining difficulty, determining the level of effort needed to find a valid block. The difficulty target is encoded as a 256-bit number representing the required computational effort. It's adjusted every 2016 blocks to maintain stability and security, aiming for the consistent 10-minute block target.Nonce: This is a random value miners use to try different combinations until they find a valid block. The nonce is incremented in the block header as miners compute the block candidate's hash. If the hash is less than the difficulty target, the block is valid and can be added to the blockchain.Remember, the candidate block header fields are version number, previous block's hash, Merkle root, timestamp, difficulty target, and nonce.Look for future phone calls between Max and Jon as Max inconsiderately peppers Jon with questions about block creation.IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comVALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Paynym @ Max- DONATE via Paynym to JON @ Jon- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME CLOTHING @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/- BUY SOME ART!! @ https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/ALTAIR TECHNOLOGIESAltair Tech is your one-stop shop for pleb mining supplies.

Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.On this episode, host of Rock Paper Bitcoin and writer of Risk Fundamentals, Fundamentals joins Max for a coffee to discuss bitcoin, bears and bravery.SHOW DISCUSSIONFundamentals, an actuary turned Bitcoiner, discusses his journey from a disillusioned career in traditional finance to embracing Bitcoin as a means of regaining personal sovereignty. He shares his frustrations with the corruption and lack of integrity in the actuarial profession, and how discovering Bitcoin has given him the conviction to take risks and fight for his beliefs. Fundamentals emphasizes the importance of using Bitcoin as a tool to improve one's life, rather than just hoarding it, and the need for individuals to discover how to live on hard money.TWITTER: https://x.com/BBrianPaulROCK PAPER BITCOIN: https://episodes.fm/1686471174/episode/Mzc5NzA3MDgtODE0Zi00N2I0LWI5NzItYjdjZjRlMjYwZmRiBLOG: https://risk-fundamentals.ghost.io/PERSONAL PODCAST: https://episodes.fm/aHR0cHM6Ly9tZWRpYS5yc3MuY29tL2Z1bmRhbWVudGFscy9mZWVkLnhtbAIMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comSHOW SPONSORSFOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

In this episode of Ungovernable Misfits: PMM, Max & Jon discuss the world of raw milk, exploring its history, benefits, and the controversies surrounding its consumption. Max & Jon begin by discussing the Yamnaya people and their influence on European lactose tolerance, highlighting how pastoral societies have historically consumed raw milk. The conversation shifts to the industrial revolution and the introduction of pasteurization, driven by public health concerns and industrial interests.

Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.On this episode, Fountain creator and developer, Oscar Merry joins Max for a coffee to discuss all things podcasting, Nostr and Fountain.SHOW DISCUSSIONOscar shares insights into the goals of Fountain, particularly in enhancing user experience with Lightning and making podcasting more accessible and valuable for both listeners and podcasters.We also explore the challenges and opportunities presented by Nostr, a protocol that Oscar believes will be the social layer of open podcasting. We discuss the integration of Nostr into Fountain, the potential for cross-app interactions, and the importance of an open, collaborative approach to podcasting. Oscar addresses the complexities of key management in Nostr and shares his optimism about the protocol's future.Throughout the conversation, we reflect on the importance of community feedback and the role of open-source collaboration in challenging major platforms like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Oscar's commitment to improving Fountain and his vision for the future of podcasting 2.0 powered by Lightning and Nostr are both inspiring and promising.IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comSHOW SPONSORSFOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.
