Bips Alternatives

• Bitcoin is decentralized. However, I assume there’s developers who have access to code? What if they decide to change it? Quite a responsibility given for a few unknown developers?

  Everyone has access to the code; it's open-source. Anyone can participate.

  Hmm you can check the bip39 words on github https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt

• PSA: Most of you don't know how crypto works or your ledger for that matter so don't blame the product for losing your funds.

  Wow that’s still crazy high! Everyone has access to the list, it’s called the bip-39 list

• Having trouble sending transaction from Blockstream Green back to Coinbase

  Regarding the replace-by-fee issue: this doesn't seem to be the expected behaviour of RBF, according to https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0125.mediawiki#motivation. Could just be an implementation bug with the wallet you're using. Is there an option to reduce the output fund amount when re-specifying the fee? You'd have to do that, since you're allocating more to the fee.

  From a feature perspective, I personally think we should at the very least be looking at starting the CSV softfork (BIP68, BIP112 and BIP113) but I'm also wary of this change, because looking at how fast wallets solved their non-consensus issues when we finally enforced fees, there is a risk here. Theoretically we could enable this within the 1.14 baseline if a major release would take a longer time to materialize into production ready code, however, I'd prefer it if we could do this as part of a major release, to improve overall security and code maintainability together with features.

• Why do most multisig wallets use m/48'/0'/0'/2 as a derivation path ?

• The password guess worth $240m in Bitcoin

  This can actually be solved using smart contracts in bitcoin, it is built into the underlying bitcoin opcodes -- CSV https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0112.mediawi...

  This is the underlying mechanism for Unilateral Channel Close in the lightning smart contracts (on bitcoin), a timeout spend clause.

  Note: It wasn't a thing when these coins were first acquired, so it doesn't really help in the situation.
