Satoshi didn’t just launch Bitcoin. He got insanely lucky with the timing. By embedding the 2009 Times headline in the Genesis Block, he proved the launch date and gave us hard money’s core manifesto. He had room to wait and choose.
You can’t recreate an immaculate inception. 🧵
Why will an "immaculate inception" never happen again?
To prove a chain launched today, you have to lock in the newspaper and date in advance. Satoshi had the luxury of waiting in total obscurity until the perfect headline dropped.
Nobody else gets that chance again. Ever.
Mitigating measures are better than not, but this type of risk asks for *avoidance*!
Physical shops are by far preferable here. @house_satoshi and @DezentralshopCH (choose in-person pickup) are good options without leaving data behind that could be leaked.
We are currently working on an Anonymous Delivery option, which we aim to have ready by September for the EU and by the end of the year for the US.
This gives you a safer way to order hardware wallets without linking the purchase to your home address or real-world identity.
- Dedicated checkout
- Use a nickname or label ID
- Select an automated parcel locker for pickup
- Unbranded packaging with a generic sender label, while the carrier only uses email or SMS to send a pickup PIN
This project is a top priority at the moment.
The "paper Bitcoin" debate is getting louder.
ETFs, derivatives, custody, reserves, synthetic exposure. A lot of heat, not always enough clarity.
Join us on Monday 16 March, for a BAS webinar with @heussepa and Gurjit Kundi.

PSA: Du bist Technik-interessiert, willst #Bitcoin im #DeepDive verstehen und direkt von absoluten Profis lernen?
Dann ist die "Bitcoin Masterclass" von @21lectures eventuell genau das Richtige für dich!
In dem fünftägigen Kurs lernst du #BTC, die Kryptographie, die Struktur von Tx und das #Lightning Protokoll im Detail kennen.
Du wirst direkt von weltbekannten Spezialisten wie dem Mitentwickler des Lightning-Protokolls Dr. Christian Decker @Snyke lernen.
Das Schöne dabei: Der Kurs ist praxisorientiert und somit ein "Vor Ort" und kein Video-Kurs, was auch abseits der Inhalte viel Spaß und regen Austausch verspricht! Einige Ex-Teilnehmer wie u.a. der @BitBoxSwiss Entwickler @Stadicus3000 haben nur Gutes darüber berichtet.
Die nächste #BitcoinMasterclass findet vom 2. bis 6. Oktober in Zürich statt.
RABATT: Mit unserem Code "blocktrainer" sparst du 10% auf die Kursgebühren.
Mehr Infos findest du hier:
21lectures.com/bitcoin-maste…
P.S. Wem die Masterclass zu fortgeschritten ist, der kann sich auch im Kurs "Bitcoin Essentials" zunächst die technischen Basics aneignen.
Unser Rabattcode gilt auch hierfür.
Viel Spaß in Zürich!
