My mistake for thinking your text was generated text, and my humor was not meant to be directed at you, so apologies if you took it personally.  PS: The AI overlord is no joke Cheers, -Yancy On Saturday, March 13, 2021 18:11 CET, Lonero Foundation wrote:  Hi, no worries. I made the changes

Hi, no worries. I made the changes now in the GitHub repository and pull request. I'm hoping for a BIP # soon. Thanks for the feedback, and I guess the sense of humor. Best regards, Andrew On Sat, Mar 13, 2021, 10:45 AM yancy wrote: > Ok thanks. Using the correct terminology helps people

My email was not intended as an insult.  Your proposal seemed a bit like gibberish and made some obvious mistakes as pointed out before (such as conflating secp256k1 with sha256), and so I was genuinely curious if you were a bot spamming the list.  Maybe a more interesting topic is, can GPT3

I think Andrew himself is an algo.  The crypto training set must not be very good. Cheers, -Yancy On Friday, March 12, 2021 17:54 CET, Lonero Foundation via bitcoin-dev wrote:  Hi, I awkwardly phrased that part, I was referring to key validation in relation to that section as well as the

Hi, I know the differences between the cryptographic hashing algorithm and key validation. I know hashing is for SHA, but was referring to asymmetric cryptography in regards to the key validation. I should have used a different term though instead of, "In regards to cryptographic hashing,", I

Also, I already stated I was referring to signature validation cryptography in that aspect: https://wizardforcel.gitbooks.io/practical-cryptography-for-developers-book/content/digital-signatures/ecdsa-sign-verify-examples.html My BIP has a primary purpose in regards to what I want to develop

Hi, I also want to emphasize that my main point isn't just to create a BTC hardfork or become another Bitcoin Cash, Gold, or SV. The main point in regards to this BIP actually expands POW rather than replaces or creates an alternative. Many of the problems faced in regards to security in the
