Update: the App Review Board has confirmed that my Apple Developer account will not be terminated. Sparrow on macOS is safe. Thank you to everyone who shared and reached out in the past 24 hours - I'm grateful. And credit to @Apple for reviewing the appeal and reaching the right outcome. The deeper problem hasn't gone away: apps impersonating @SparrowWallet are still reaching users and putting their funds at risk. I'll keep working to protect people from those scams, and I hope to do so alongside @Apple. Thank you all.

My attempt to protect users from scam apps on the @AppStore has gotten my Apple Developer account flagged for termination - ironically, for "dishonest activity". Unless it's reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow Wallet will fail, and development on macOS will end.

Alan Greenspan died today, and the man who spent two decades inflating bubbles will be eulogized as a maestro. Fitting, because he understood exactly what he was doing. In 1966 a younger Greenspan wrote an essay called "Gold and Economic Freedom." He laid out the case with precision. The gold standard protected savers from confiscation by inflation. Welfare statists hated gold because it stood in the way of their deficits. He wrote that the abandonment of gold made deficit spending a "scheme for the hidden confiscation of wealth." He was right. He knew it. Then he took the job running the printing press. From August 1987 to January 2006 Greenspan sat atop the Federal Reserve and did the opposite of everything that essay defended. After the 1987 crash he flooded the banks with liquidity and taught a generation of traders that the central bank would catch them every time they fell. They named the reflex after him: the Greenspan put. He cut the federal funds rate to 1 percent by June 2003 and held it there, and you watched housing prices detach from any sane relationship to income. Mortgage credit gushed. He went on television in February 2004 and suggested Americans consider adjustable-rate mortgages, roughly eighteen months before he started hiking rates into those very borrowers. The man who warned in 1966 about the hidden confiscation of wealth engineered the largest credit distortion in postwar history. Then came the apology that wasn't one. In October 2008, sitting before Congress as the wreckage smoked, Greenspan confessed he had found "a flaw" in his model of how the world worked. He was "shocked" that lenders had not policed themselves. You don't get to spend twenty years pricing risk at zero and then act surprised when men respond to the incentives you built. Any committee of economists cannot set the price of money better than a market can. Greenspan knew the answer at 40 and spent the next half century pretending he'd forgotten it. The savers he warned about in 1966 paid for that performance.

If you’re wanting an attractively priced copy of @LynAldenContact’s fantastic new book, The Stolguard Incident, I’ve just donated my copy to @AddymanBooks in Hay-on-Wye, Wales for resale. It’s such a good read and I don’t want it going to waste

The Australian Government, gaslighting young Australians 😔 #hypocrisy

The Australian government just put forward sweeping changes to the capital gains tax system. They pitched it under the guise of helping young people access afforable housing. I ran the numbers, and undeniably, the policy harms, not helps young Aussies. newsletter.checkonchain.com/p/when-the-gov…

Every hardware wallet asks you to trust it. This one says you don't have to. No secure element. No PIN. No airgap. All on purpose. I spent time with three of the new FrostSnap Bitcoin wallet devices to find out if the math actually backs up the claim. And I'll give you my honest take on whether I'd trust it with my own funds. @FrostsnapTech

@dash71_ @GamingBlomp Unfortunately the positioning of the ref was terrible. In the last 5 minutes of each half it’s vitally important for a ref to push even harder than normal to get into the correct position (wide of the play, not behind the play, as the ref was in this case).

@realbedford No, that doesn’t work either. Never mind, I’ll have to continue relying on the TG group
