"Who Hijacked Bitcoin? Steve Patterson and Aaron Day on DarkHorse"

As a fan of BTC I found this episode very interesting. I wish I had know this stuff earlier as it would have changed my perspective on BTC, such as the ideological differences between BTC and BTC Cash.

pogolo is now at 1.x.x!

not much has changed from 0.1.0, the most notable things are a docker image (0xf0xx0/pogolo on docker hub), more resilience, and prettier logs :3
umbrel app in the works, api and error codes are considered stable, and i might sit down and finish figuring out aur packages
give it a spin and tell me how it is!

Bitcoin Core developers warned users on Monday of a wallet migration bug in versions 30.0 and 30.1 that can delete files and result in fund loss.

The issue occurs under specific conditions and affects migrations from old Bitcoin Core wallets that were never renamed or upgraded.

Lacie Zhang, market analyst at Bitget Wallet, told Cointelegraph that the bug is triggered when the software attempts to migrate an unnamed legacy “wallet.dat” file stored in a custom wallet directory, often defined using “-walletdir” setting, while pruning is enabled.

Honestly, this kind of bug is embarrassing. Core should've switched to deterministic wallet at least a decade ago.

⚠️ PSA for Bassin users:
A security issue was discovered and fixed in the latest Bassin app, but you're not safe until you update it.
Open the Umbrel App Store and update Bassin ASAP.

https://github.com/duckaxe/bassin/issues/23#issuecomment-3640779220

What happened? Bassin uses the ckPool container from hub.docker.com/r/pinkyswear/ckpool-solo - this is linked in the readme: duckaxe/bassin#repositories
Bassin itself does not set a payout address, which can be seen in the code: getumbrel/umbrel-apps@master/bassin/data/config/ckpool.conf.template
Does this mean that the ckPool image i used in Bassin hub.docker.com/r/pinkyswear/ckpool-solo is compromised?

Following a discussion on Discord, I can confirm that the ckPool Docker image I use for Bassin has been compromised.

umbrel decides to make their own, legit docker image at https://github.com/getumbrel/docker-ckpool-solo

https://github.com/getumbrel/umbrel-apps/pull/4230#issuecomment-3641463579

@duckaxe I have created a new ckpool Docker image under the @getumbrel org. It's a drop in replacement for the existing image you're using. You can use it at ghcr.io/getumbrel/docker-ckpool-solo:590fb2a. It builds ckpool-solo from source at the commit 590fb2a which is the current tip of the solobtc branch. (The last version tag is quite a few years old so I presume this is what is considered the latest version)

Public Pool Announcement:

1. Stratum TLS support has been added for end to end privacy. Esp-miner is currently in the process of merging in support as well and this will be the recommended way to connect. (Port 4333). The recommended clear text port has been moved from 21496 to 3333 as well but both will be available.

2. I am ending the affiliate payout program. It hasn't been very popular, requiring monthly attention and I will instead divert the funds to hosting costs and continued 0% block fees.

3. Devices without an ASIC should find another server or service to use. It is likely I will increase the minimum difficulty in the future. Support was initially added for the OG nerdminer for the purposes of fun and learning but since retailers have abused consumer ignorance and these devices are creating unreasonable load on the server, sometimes maliciously with nothing to show for it. If you are one of these people you can always run your own stratum server, many solutions now exist.
