Announcing The Bitcoin Seed Tool! 🎉

A project I've been working on with pseudonymous lead developer 'SuperPhatArrow'. Its goal is to provide a space for bitcoiners to experiment + learn how wallets are generated using different sources of entropy.

bitcoiner.guide/seed Sounds cool, but what else can it do?

Want to quickly generate a seed for testing? ✅
Want to generate a seed via dice rolls/coin flips or playing cards? ✅
Want to verify the address generation of a wallet? ✅

It's absolutely mind boggling how good the tools we have available to us today are. Sometimes it's good to take a step back + appreciate the what's being built around us to make using bitcoin in a sovereign manner easy.

Here's a few worth mentioning... Effective + easy to use coinjoin, available to anyone with an Android phone thanks to @SamouraiWallet. You can even use the same CJ implementation on your laptop and mix straight to cold storage thanks to @SparrowWallet.

In light of the increasing frequency of censorship events coupled with awesome guides from bitcoiners like @Diverter_NoKYC + @_k3tan, I've taken steps to become a little more sovereign + less reliant on 'the man'. Here's a few tweets to hopefully inspire you to do the same... In the space of just a few days, I've created my first VPS at @Namecheap (paid in sats) + installed @yunohost to run my own...

April 5th - Today in #Bitcoin I learned...

Today is #CoinJoinDay so after smelting a healthy amount of sats in Whirlpool I decided to spend some doxxic change and support the team over @lightnitegame by signing up for the alpha.

Looking forward to winning some sats

1/n

With the massive rise in @SamouraiWallet Whirlpool usage since the introduction of mobile mixing I've finally got round to mixing some sats and thought I'd document the process for other people taking their first steps poolside that may have felt apprehensive about starting 2/n

First step is to send some sats into your wallet.

Hit the blue + in the bottom right hand corner of the home screen and hit receive.

You will then be given a screen like this.

Scan the QR code or copy the address and paste into whatever wallet you are sending from.

I've decided to do a daily tweet throughout 2020 with something I've learned about Bitcoin. Hopefully come Dec 31st I'll have a juicy thread that I can look back on realise how much I've learned. They likely wont follow any specific theme but will all be Bitcoin related. Where possible I will reference who/where I learned the info from

Today is Jan 14th so I'm starting a little late but here goes.
