Hello, I was reading through the page at http://7a5eaokoytoqpp6jgklwg5kevzltv2cclwzbyvakyzaeghe4rqipe7ad.onion/bitcoin. This is a great resource, thank you for putting it together.

I have some corrections and additions to offer. I could not find the exact files to edit in this repo as the content here does not match exactly the content on the live website.

I will quote the sections I propose changing and offer my changes below.

However, the system is truly trust less, if and only if the individual user runs a full node. This is a piece of software that can be freely installed on any hardware, computer, dedicated device like the nodl [running Bitcoin, LND, BTC Pay Server, Tor, and Samourai Dojo], RaspberryPi running RaspiBolt or [RaspiBlitz], Bitseed [or other NUC based hardware], or a smartphone with ABCore.

  1. RaspiBlitz is in brackets, as if it should be a markdown-formatted link but the URL has not been added.

  2. The Bitseed website is now offline, and the company's Twitter says that their shop has closed: https://twitter.com/BitseedOrg/status/1139268749578702850 RIP

Wallets

I think it's worth adding Bitcoin Core and Armory to this section.

https://www.bitcoincore.org/ and http://6hasakffvppilxgehrswmffqurlcjjjhd76jgvaqmsg6ul25s7t3rzyd.onion/

Could also see a "Full node" section being useful:

Full node

Bitcoin Core
nodl
myNode
Samourai Dojo
Ronan Dojo
Electrum Personal Server

In the Privacy section there are a few typos:

How TubleBit works, by Adam Gibson

TubleBit -> TumbleBit

The privacy of Bitcoin, Dash, Monero, Verge, ZCash, Mimble Wimble, the battle of the Privacy Coins, by Aaron van Wirdum

ZCash -> Zcash

Mimble Wimble -> Mimblewimble

Mimble Wimble whitepaper, by Jedusor, T. (2016)

Decentralized Exchange & Cross Chain Atomic Swap

OpenDEX is a decentralized, p2p cross-chain atomic swap exchange protocol with a reference implementation called xud that may be worth mentioning in this section: https://opendex.network/

Lightning Network

Could add these wallets to this section, I have tested and found them to be reliable:

Blockchain
...
The Ethereum-blockchain size has exceeded 1TB, and yes, it’s an issue, by
Stop And Decrypt

This article has a factually un-true headline and even contradicts itself in the article.

  1. The Ethereum blockchain has not exceeded 1TB in size. I have a fully synced Ethereum full node running on a server now and the size of the chaindata directory is 320.4 GB.

  2. Stop And Decrypt says at the beginning "This is not about archival nodes" but later in the article their "evidence" for the claim "The Ethereum-blockchain size has exceeded 1TB" is a screenshot of... an archival node directory.

On the whole I find this article out of place in this "Bitcoin Archive" written for "anyone willing to accumulate valuable information and... truth".
