Big congrats to the $QUBIC team for resolving this issue so quickly! You guys did an amazing job! I was honestly losing faith, but well done! Especially to the core dev, Joetom.
Everyone is going to get their funds back, and for those questioning decentralization, this was a decision made by a group of computers that donāt know each other.
Centralization is when one person or entity controls a network. This is not what happened here.
And do not confuse decentralization with chaos.

Jesus is not a fake god. He is a historical figure with strong contemporary attestation, claimed divinity through resurrection accounts that launched the world's largest religion, and stands apart from the purely mythological figures in that image.

IS THE DRUCKENMILLER-BESSENT FEUD A CAREFULLY CHOREOGRAPHED GAME OF GOOD COP, BAD COP?
Druckenmiller has been making this same argument about government deficits for years. His criticism of Treasury intervention fits everything he has said about fiscal discipline and letting markets set the price of government debt.
However, it's the timing of the piece that should be more closely examined.
Druckenmiller and Bessent are extremely close. Bessent knows exactly how his former boss views attempts to suppress long-term yields. Now their disagreement is playing out publicly as Treasury expands its intervention in the long end.
Druck wants the bond market to force Washington to confront the fiscal problem.
Bessent appears focused on buying time, as allowing yields to run could trigger a crisis before Washington gets its fiscal house in order.
Then we have the third member of this party, Kevin Warsh.
If markets deteriorate and the case for a much larger liquidity response grows, Warsh could eventually emerge as the monetary āgood cop.ā
This all makes you wonder why this fight is happening out in the public.
Bessent just announced he was going to launch "Economic D-Day" on Iran and target all those who do business with the country. If he follows through, that could cause severe economic pain across the globe.
Do they need to set the stage for the money-printing bazooka in case it all goes wrong?
There may be a much bigger game being played.
STAN DRUCKENMILLER BLASTS BESSENTāS TREASURY BOND BUYBACK STRATEGY
Legendary investor Stanley Druckenmiller, Scott Bessentās former boss, is sharply criticizing the Treasury Secretaryās attempt to push down long-term yields.
In a new WSJ op-ed, Druckenmiller argues Treasuryās decision to double long-dated bond buybacks from $2B to at least $4B per operation risks crossing the line from liquidity management into outright yield suppression.
āOnce markets believe Treasury is defending a price, every rise in yields becomes a test of official resolve, and the operations must grow to survive the tests.ā
Druckenmiller argues there is no obvious market dysfunction requiring intervention. Treasury auctions are functioning, volatility is contained and markets remain orderly.
With inflation above target, deficits around 6% of GDP and national debt above $40T, rising yields may simply be the bond market appropriately pricing Americaās deteriorating fiscal position.
Suppressing those yields also removes one of the few remaining forces imposing fiscal discipline on Washington.
Druckenmiller goes even further, arguing that buying long-duration Treasuries while issuing short-term bills effectively removes duration from the market and begins to resemble a small-scale form of QE conducted by Treasury rather than the Fed.
And once traders believe Treasury is defending a particular level of yields, they have an incentive to test just how committed officials are to that defense.
His solution is simple. Let the bond market determine the price of government borrowing and fix the underlying fiscal problem through lower deficits, entitlement reform and better debt management.
The criticism is particularly notable given the history here.
Bessent worked for Druckenmiller at Duquesne Capital Management after both had worked under George Soros.
There was a compelling story that some of the greatest macro minds of their generation were finally in positions to confront Americaās fiscal problem.
Druckenmillerās op-ed throws some serious cold water on that idea.
If Washington refuses to address the underlying fiscal problem, increasingly aggressive attempts to suppress yields may only invite the bond market to test its resolve.

The COLDCARD RNG vulnerability may be worse than an exchange hack. It hit at the core of sovereign Bitcoin holders - it struck those who did all the research, understood why self-custody is important, and didnāt keep coins on exchanges.
My heart goes out to everyone affected. Itās a horrible situation and the damage is irreparable. While I have many thoughts and criticisms about how we got here, Iāll hold back because I know nvk is devastated too.
Self-custody is hard. If you advocate for self-custody, you should also be telling people to use a multi-vendor multisig setup. Iāve been saying this for years. Self-custody only works if you do it in a way that minimizes a single point of failure. Donāt trust any single vendor for hardware. Assume everyone is your adversary.
As self-custody is hard, we should be less critical of people who chose to use custodians or hold BTC in ETFs or Bitcoin Treasury Companies. There isnāt a single right or wrong way to use Bitcoin and there are tradeoffs everywhere.
Some people have contacted me about what to do. Hereās what I recommend:
1ļøā£ Document everything. Write down all the facts and details you know (dates, addresses, firmware, etc.).
2ļøā£ File a police report, as it creates an official record which is useful for a number of reasons. Even better if you can contact a cybercrime unit, national reporting portals (e.g., FBI IC3 in the US), or specialized crypto-crime task forces if they exist.
3ļøā£ Watch for coordinated efforts to track movements of funds.
4ļøā£ Do not destroy your COLDCARD and seed phrase. Hold onto them as there could be a chance that stolen funds reach an exchange, are frozen, and you need to prove ownership. Write down your PIN too, or note it in your documentation. When you stop using it for a long time, you may forget it.
5ļøā£ This next point is very important: DO NOT share your personal details, seed phrase, or send any money to anyone claiming they can āhelp recoverā the funds. Scammers will be targeting people who are desperate.
Just know that almost everyone has lost coins for some reason at some point. Donāt do anything rash. Talk to someone if you need to. You can always rebuild, but only if youāre still here.
For all of us developing wallets, software or hardware, security is the most important thing we provide. People are counting on us and we have to do better.

$Qubic is building something that hasnāt existed before.
A blockchain where mining trains artificial general intelligence.
Where transactions cost nothing.
Where 676 Computors reach instant consensus.
Where Oracle Machines will connect on-chain logic to the real world.
This isnāt a roadmap anymore.
The foundation is built.
2026 is when it converges.

ā” The Distributed Von Neumann Bottleneck and How Qubic Sidesteps It ā”
1/
Most modern computing still inherits a 1940s assumption.
The Von Neumann architecture separates:
ā¢ computation
ā¢ memory
ā¢ verification
On a single machine, this is manageable.
Across a network, it becomes a bottleneck.
2/
At scale, that separation turns into drift.
ā¢ computation runs ahead
ā¢ state lags behind
ā¢ correctness is checked later
Execution moves first.
Truth catches up afterward.
3/
This pattern shaped most distributed systems.
Databases commit, then roll back.
Blockchains execute, then reorganize.
Consensus negotiates history after it already moved.
Finality becomes something you wait for.
4/
This isnāt a speed problem.
Itās a topology problem.
When execution and verification are decoupled,
systems must tolerate ambiguity.
Thatās acceptable for web apps.
Risky for finance.
Unworkable for real-time coordination.
5/
Qubic starts from a stricter assumption.
If correctness matters,
verification cannot be a post-process.
So Qubic collapses the stack into a single atomic event:
ā¢ computation
ā¢ state transition
ā¢ verification
Not phases.
One operation.
6/
In Qubic, a state transition exists only if
the quorum computes the same result within the same tick.
No speculative execution.
No rollback logic.
No probabilistic waiting.
If results diverge,
the system simply does not advance.
7/
This is how Qubic sidesteps the
Distributed Von Neumann Bottleneck.
Not by widening pipelines.
Not by adding layers.
By refusing to let execution outrun truth.
Compute does not race ahead of state.
Compute *is* the state transition.
8/
This architectural discipline is also why
Qubic reaches extreme performance.
When execution, verification, and commitment
are the same operation,
reconciliation overhead disappears.
15.5M transactions per second
are a proven capacity of this topology,
not a tuning trick.
9/
Most systems pipeline work:
Compute ā Record ā Verify ā Reconcile
Qubic collapses the pipeline:
Compute ā” Verify ā” Commit
One clock.
One outcome.
10/
The old model assumed correctness
could be checked later.
Qubic assumes correctness
is the prerequisite for movement.
That single shift explains
both its determinism
and its performance.

Guess who left Bitcoin after government involvement by core devs?
Gavin (bitcoin core developer) visits CIA, satoshi lefts the project.
Guess who was never happy with Gavin. And also agains the "Bitcoin foundation"? dedecentralizationofbitcoin.ā¦

They are saying that an Oracle in Qubic will be able to fetch data from any layer of the internet (OSI model). In other words, it does not matter what the technical source is.
And the important part:
The Oracle Machine should be built in a way that allows adding new connection types in the future, such as:
HTTP
TCP
WebSocket
UDP
In shjort: The Oracle Machine needs to be flexible so it can connect to any type of data source in the future.

Hi crypto survivors! š¤
I decided to write the most comprehensive guide to @garthonqubic
airdrops I possibly can.
This is honestly one of the most innovative and sustainable reward systems in crypto, made possible only on $QUBIC. It creates real buying pressure and still delivers incredible returns. How is this possible?
Letās break it down properly. š§µš 1/14
turtleboy retweeted
Open letter to the $Qubic community:
I've been in the crypto space since 2017. I started with $3k and I've made almost 7 figures with one simple strategy: Research, buy and hold high-quality-high-conviction projects with strong teams that inspire people and have the potential to become a paradigm shift for the world. And most importantly: Double down on your conviction when there is a flash sale. Ignore noisy vaporware. Utility always wins. Last but not least: Don't compare your gains to others. This will make you roundtrip and lose everything.
āWhat we're seeing right now is the opportunity of a lifetime.
āI cannot emphasize this enough. $Qubic is not only one of the safest investments in crypto today but also has the highest upside and one of the most future-proof business models I have ever seen.
āHowever, this only works if you - the people behind Qubic who truly believe in decentralized compute and decentralized AI - play a part. This means that each of you investors holding a significant bag should consider setting up a miner, securing the network, and contributing to building out Aigarth - at the very least.
āMining is what makes all the difference. If you haven't started mining Qubic, start now. The hardware is cheap. The impact is huge. If you believe in useful-proof-of-work, then contribute to it. If you want AI in the hands of the people, be one of the people responsible for making that happen.
āHereās why I'm so confident in Qubic being one of the safest bets in crypto right now: As long as we're generating profit with our CPUs and GPUs, we don't need to worry about Qubic's roadmap. It's up to all of us to protect our investment when (not if) an economic reset occurs.
I believe Bitcoin will be a safe haven during an economic crisis, but given the volatility, it's likely to get worse before it gets better. Now is the time to reaffirm your conviction and contribute to Qubic's valuable PoW.
āIf the market dips, have dry powder ready to average down. Ignore emotions. Panic = Poverty. Buy when there's blood on the streets. Buy only projects that will push the industry forward.
āQubic's fundamentals are unchanged. The community is one of the strongest I've seen for a 150-200m cap project. Nothing comes even close. I'm seeing more builders than ever.
āBe one of them. Mine, build, contribute.
And you will be able to retire your entire bloodline.

Undoubtedly, the most compelling evidence in the $QUBIC creator @c___f___b is Satoshi case comes down to that 1CFB address
I knew about the evidence around this address before I made the documentary
But it was only when I sat with this evidence for hours that it really sank into my soul
This is the breakdown of why it is so compelling and basically proves CfB is at least part of Satoshiš
š¹The email:
9 days after Bitcoin's launch, Satoshi sent an email to Hal Finney stating that some day in the future, it might be possible to brute force Bitcoin addresses
Brute forcing basically means a technically skilled person could use a lot of computational power to create a custom address
Satoshi ends the email by saying "Just by chance, I have my initials...."
Quite a mysterious and leading way to end an email in my opinion
š¹The 1CFB address:
Only a few hours after this email was sent, a Bitcoin address appears with the initials CFB at the start
They are of course Come-from-Beyond's initials
Might not seem like a big deal but this is only 10 days after Bitcoin's creation and this is the 264th block
So this is super early
So early that it is widely assumed only Satoshi and possibly Hal Finney were mining at this time
š¹Who owns this address:
Since this address appears so early, it very likely belongs to Satoshi
There is a thing called the "Patoshi pattern" that was used to identify the mining fingerprint of Satoshi
The Patoshi pattern was able to identify all of the addresses that Satoshi mined to in the early Bitcoin days
When we use Arkham Intelligence and the Patoshi pattern, we can see that this 1CFB address belongs to Satoshi Nakamoto
You can view it here: intel.arkm.com/explorer/addrā¦
š¹Is the 1CFB just random
Many people (like @postsimply69) claim that the letters CFB appeared randomly at the start of this address
Which is a logical and rational assumption
(the odds of this happening are around 190000 to 1, so unlikely but not impossible)
But this address is super interesting for another reason
After the 1 at the start, it contains only letters and no other digits
This doesn't happen randomly, just ask ChatGPT questions like:
šWhat are the odds this is a vanity address: 1CFBdvaiZgZPTZERqnezAtDQJuGHKoHSzg
And then follow up and say:
šSince there are no digits except the 1 at the start, it makes it more likely, no?
The odds of an address with no digits appearing after the 1 at the start are 1 in 48 million
That means there is a 48 million to 1 chance that this address was custom created
And most importantly! Someone purposely created the address with no digits to prove that it was custom created
Someone wanted YOU to know this address was custom created
š¹Did CfB see this address and then pick his name?
Short answer, no!
CfB has been using the name come-from-beyond since at least the year 2000
Both of the articles below are signed by Come-from-Beyond and are from the early 2000s
nestor.minsk.by/kg/2002/07/kā¦
kv.by/archive/index200049110ā¦
Interestingly, the second article discusses methods to put hidden "digital fingerprints" in your work to prevent plagiarism
The method discussed in this article is the same method used to hide the initials 1CFB in that Bitcoin address
š¹Conclusion:
There are only a small number of takeaways you can have from all this
The first is that the 1CFB address was actually just a 1 in 48 million random happening
The second is that Satoshi created a vanity address and randomly decided to start it with the letters CFB
The third is that Satoshi put the letters CFB at the start of the address to frame CFB for the creation of Bitcoin and throw people off his scent
The fourth, and obviously most likely, is that CFB is actually Satoshi and he created Bitcoin
While making the $QUBIC @c___f___b is Satoshi documentary, I got to spend a lot of time with the evidence
And I'm 100% convinced that CfB was at least involved in $BTC's creation and I think anyone who explores that evidence correctly will come to the same conclusion
When I release the documentary tomorrow, please watch it all
But don't just take my word for what I share
Click around the links that I will share in the description
Ask some questions via ChatGPT
Feel free to ask me questions here
Explore it all yourself and I believe that if you do this, you won't be able to deny the evidence
But, a super important note...
As a $QUBIC investor, that doesn't mean that Satoshi is coming to save you
He might never touch $QUBIC will those Bitcoin
