I think I just found my new favorite VPN. ๐Ÿ‘€ I set up @obscuravpn, paid with Bitcoin over Lightning, and explored how its two-party design uses @mullvadnet exit nodes to separate who you are from what you do online. Watch: youtu.be/qjemXQgBJLw

SeedSigner being such a simple, inexpensive tool encourages people to focus on what really provides the security assurances for the cold storage โ€” the private keys!

Qwen3.8-27B, up to 144 tok/sec on M5 Max. Let that sink in. โšก๏ธโœจ๐Ÿš€ Excited to partner with @inco_ai to bring you their Splash inference engine in LM Studio on day 0! Get it running now: lmstudio.ai/blog/splash-engiโ€ฆ
Qwen3.8-27B at 144 tok/s on an M5 Max MacBook Pro โšก Meet Inco Splash: our open-source inference engine, built around the model and around Apple silicon. Up to 3ร— the decode speed of Ollama, 2ร— oMLX, and almost 4ร— when an agent fans out into sub-agents.

Dear users, We got this wrong, and you were right to call it out. The intent was to protect traders from ending up stuck with tainted coins - but we shipped it without warning and explained it poorly after the fact. That's on us. It's disabled now. If it comes back in any form, it'll be clearly disclosed beforehand, and it won't cost you the flexibility you came to Hodl Hodl for. More soon.
A quick update on platform security ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ We've rolled out enhanced bitcoin security scoring across the platform. This is NOT a KYC/AML process. What changed is technical: Incoming bitcoin is now checked for serious red flags before a contract settles. If a bitcoin comes back with a genuinely bad score, we won't let that contract go through. No one wants to end up holding coins they can't move or cash out later - that's the scenario we're closing off. Most trades are unaffected. This only stops the rare, clearly problematic cases - and it protects both sides of every trade. We'll keep refining this to keep the platform safe without changing what makes it work.

No joke, as I was making this, @brandon_gentile sent me a link to a @BusinessInsider story on Instagram that I couldn't access... because news outlets are BANNED in Canada on certain social media platforms. I show the before/after in this video. What a joke Canada has become.

What happens to your Bitcoin if you lose your phone AND your hardware wallet? I stress-tested @Bitkey through a series of escalating disaster scenarios โ€” including the company vanishing entirely. Find out what happened on @SOVsessions ๐Ÿ‘‡๏ธ youtu.be/toT8kQbFvLY

Qwen 3.8 27b is what I run locally and what I used in this tutorial video. Now with this compressed model opens up the ability to run effectively the same thing on a Mac with 16GB of RAM. Wild! youtu.be/PNxBXr53ACg
Run Bonsai 27B locally on a 16 GB Mac ๐Ÿฅท Bonsai 2 27B is @PrismML's ternary build of Qwen3.8 27B that keeps 98.2% of FP16 quality in 7 GB, it made a voxel Japanese pagoda in one prompt with Three.js! Run AI models locally - atomic.chat

๐Ÿ’ฏ So depressing You encounter the same thing with regard to adopting Bitcoin for global nonprofits that could really use it
When I talk to nonprofit leaders about AI they often report widespread resistance from staff, usually because of environmental objections (that mix real issues & fake ones). It causes them frustration because theyโ€™re all under-resourced for their mission & see AI as a way to help
