PUBKEY

You may know us as the D.C. venue for the Data After Dark "data center party." But here's @tpacchia on why we're not just stopping at data centers for our future pro-growth, frontier-tech parties. "I think a lot of the turmoil around data centers is going to calm down just after the midterms. The Democrats or Republicans are certainly going to want the tax revenue." "But Bitcoin's always on. And as we branch out for more digital communities, we're going to try and stay as topical as we can." @MTSlive

We'd like to see "model-name-HOLD-MY-BEER" solve the research problem of crushing seven cold ones at 3 PM

What does it mean to be "the Internet's dive bar?" Here's @tpacchia on why we're building physical third spaces for digital communities: "Humans aren't really built to be terminally online... we crave social interaction in person. And I think it's just a natural evolution of the Internet to branch out to the real world and see these [physical third spaces] pop up." "We've hosted Scott Bessent 2 or 3 times— many senators, representatives, and industry leaders all over Bitcoin, AI, data centers." "Here [at PubKey], you can actually meet people where they are... it's almost like getting the corn dog at the state fair or going to a diner in New Hampshire." @MTSlive

We went on @MTSlive and explained the origin of the "PUBKEY IN EVERY CITY EXCEPT FOR BOSTON" meme. No offense, Boston.

HAPPY NATIONAL AMERICAN BEER DAY COME CELEBRATE AT THE PUB 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The real danger isn't in trusting individual hardware companies like Ledger or Trezor. As @arbedout and @MartyBent point out, the threat of supply-chain attacks is only growing larger. Watch this clip for a mini-history on these attacks. "The CryptoBilis guys got bought out by someone for a substantial amount of money. They got retired, and then their supply chain was attacked... "...let's say the price of Bitcoin goes up another 10x. When does it make sense for an employee at Foxconn to compromise the supply chain directly? Not a reseller, but actually literally the hardware assembly line." @arbedout "And this isn't unprecedented in Bitcoin's history... Bitmain, in one of their Antminers in 2015, had a remote backdoor. The bug was called Antbleed. And hypothetically, Bitmain could have been remote bricked or jacked hash rate from any miner that was running their machines." @MartyBent 📍 PUBKEY NYC
