I aggregated a list of "reverse CAPTCHAs" here for anyone interested: https://x.com/0x_Osprey/status/2043020254289248469

Yup I needed this bad for my NanoClaw

Nice work

Taylor is on to something here: https://x.com/tayvano_/status/1978273602719158448

tl;dr: Someone cracked these weak entropy wallets 3+ years before anyone else and kept it secret

Whether that was the USG or another entity has yet to be revealed

After having read the thread it's not clear to me where the "3 years" comes from ?

EDIT and were the keys cracked, or were the passphrases obtained ? It's mentioned elsewhere that he had them written down. Which would be a much easier "hack"

Risky move, since it is easy to move the funds to a new address at any time.

>>I think it would be interesting if someone could invent a stable coin cryptocurrency with low overhead that enabled some of these use cases

We are thinking about this and building in this direction with Paygo.wtf

Here is one we are working on: https://paygo.wtf/

Nice. I wish you success in this.

Appreciate it

Yes - we've even seen entire virtual machines that allow you to prove arbitrary rust code.

Our team is leveraging zkVMs for paygo.wtf

We're building a purpose built self-custodial payment rail using zero knowledge cryptography that could be leveraged for this use case: https://x.com/0x_Osprey/status/1925299005191577921 https://paygo.wtf/

Current benchmarks for proving costs are 33k txns per dollar and we expect this to go down x10-x100 over the coming months/years.

Blockchain => trash

A system that can be trusted needs to work in the real world, with credit card payments, bank accounts, VAT.

I use a blockchain wallet that lets me instantly switch between "USD in a Bank Account" to "self-custodial USDC on a blockchain" and so can you: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fuse-solana-smart-wallet/id647...

I can also move the funds into a connected debit card so I can spend it in the real world.

This wallet is powered by Bridge.xyz which was acquired for $1B+ by Stripe in Fall 2024 - would encourage you to try the new stuff!
