Re: 12-word seed vs 24-word seed? This seems pretty interesting
So you're saying if I post my 12 seed words online, someone can steal my Bitcoins? What's next, if I post the details for my bank but scramble my PIN, someone can steal my euros too? 
To be fair, even the android phone in your pocket can go through all possible combinations of your PIN and unscramble it, if the hackers can't just social engineer the bank into logging you in in the first place.
What's your source of crypto news? I know it won't be one as it shouldn't be but usually, what website(s) do you visit? Your opinion on this task matters because you are a highly valued, knowledgeable member
I tend not to care whatsoever about what these sites class as "news". If you look at the landing page of CoinTelegraph, CoinIdol, etc. on any given day, the top stories are about price speculation, a whole bunch of shitcoins I don't care about, a whole bunch of centralized exchanges or platforms I don't care about, various celebrities or influences I don't care about, clickbait trash like the article being discussed here, and so on. The amount of actual news on these sites is somewhere between zero and none.What I do care about is bitcoin's development and new advances, and for that I read the bitcoin-dev mailing list, the lightning-dev mailing list, and any relevant discussions on GitHub. I would also recommend the newsletter from https://bitcoinops.org/.
Exactly. I guess trash talk is more marketable and gets more clicks than informative discourse, so that's probably why most sites do what they do.
On the other hand, times are not exactly rosy for digital media empires these days (Buzzfeed trouble, and VICE about to go bust).
