Judge: I will prepare a fairly long judgement I have reached the conclusions the evidence is overwhelming CSW is not the author of the whitepaper CSW is not satsohi CSW is not the creator of Bitcoin CSW did not author the Bitcoin software

This headline and article are completely false, and an embarrassment to @CoinDesk. Did you even read the judgment @JamieCrawleyCD? The judge ordered no such thing.

.@PeterMcCormack must pay @Dr_CSWright, the Australian scientist who claims to be bitcoin inventor Satoshi Nakamoto, around 900,000 British pounds ($1.1 million) in costs following their legal battle. By @JamieCrawleyCD trib.al/jnTLzZe

Craig Wright v. Peter McCormack: Judge Rules McCormack Should Pay Around $1.1M in Costs

Wright had argued that McCormack should pay the majority of costs for the legal proceedings, but then accepted to pay all McCormack's costs save for those ruled in Wright's favor.

... and that Wright has boasted that he wants to "crush" his opponents by bankrupting them, and the judge's statement that "Litigants should be in no doubt that the courts of this jurisdiction will not allow their costs rules to be used for tactical purposes of this kind" ...

... it may be that the costs judge significantly reduces the costs associated with those orders.

Nope. UK resi price cap is 28p/kWh. Breakeven for an S19 pro is ~10¢/kWh. "Bill for average household" is how much an average household's bill would be under the new cap.

As some of you may already know: today was my last day at @ChaincodeLabs working full time on Bitcoin Core open source. I'm ever grateful to @morcosa and @suhasdaftuar for taking a chance on me 3.5 years ago to work with world-class engineers and researchers. 🧵1/n

Energy expert Alex Epstein thinks that 50% of hospitals’ budgets goes on their energy bill. I’m not an energy expert and it took me less than 2 seconds to conclude that that’s nonsense.

If your Bitcoin New Year's resolution was to trust less and verify more, then this is a great place to start. Thank you @glozow for coordinating review club!
glozow@glozow4 Jan 2022
If you're new to the Bitcoin Core codebase and unsure how to review PRs, this week's review club will be super beginner-friendly. We'll discuss the concept, take a tour through the code path, dig into the C++ implementation a little bit (<20 lines), and review the python test.
