What a pack of lies you are telling.


The other servers on the network still generate metadata, XMPP was not designed with privacy in mind.

The metadata shows who you talked to and at what time.

On the other hand, setting up a SimpleX server is even easier and no metadata is generated.

Hello Nostr!

This npub will now be a primary outlet for Bisq news and announcements.

New posts will be published here and then cross-posted to the bisq_network X handle.

Decommissioning X will be considered when this npub has more followers.

XMMP is not private, metadata is exploitable.


Bitcoin is the best performing asset in 2024 with 43.2%, gold the second with 24.9%.

As a former GoldBoy my bet is that gold reaches $4000 before 2030, I have been recommending buying gold to my relatives for inflation protection (bitcoin averse) since $1700, of course no one has bought.

I no longer recommend buying Bitcoin to anyone, you have to get to Bitcoin on your own, you have to deserve Bitcoin, Bitcoin owes nothing to anyone.

https://www.securemessagingapps.com has updated its review of SimpleX, as you can see, SimpleX is now the highest rated application overall, the most private and the most cryptographically robust.

Not that it was necessary for it to appear on this website, I have been warning about it for a long time, but in his first review in March 2024 the author of the website made an incorrect analysis of SimpleX.

To highlight that it is the only one along with Signal i iMessage that have encryption resistant to quantum computation (this take it with tweezers, the explanation would be very long).

The application does not collect contact information, unlike Signal and Threema, and no contact information is sent that can be associated with metadata, unlike Signal or Threema.

Completely opensource server, unlike Threema which is closed.

It is not dependent on any phone number, unlike Signal.

On this day in 2008, Lehman Brothers went bankrupt.

When I am asked why I am in Bitcoin I always answer, out of dignity.

It is a good time to explain how fractional reserve banking works and its ability to create money, not only the central bank can create money, there are different ways.

Fractional reserve banking is a system in which banks are only required to hold a fraction of their customers' deposits as reserves. This means that they can lend or invest the rest of the money deposited.

How does it work?

Initial deposit: A customer deposits $1000 with the bank.

Mandatory reserve: If the bank is required to keep only 1% of deposits, it will keep $10 as a reserve.

Loans: The bank can lend the remaining $990 to other customers.

Deposit and loan cycle: The borrowed $990 can be deposited in the same bank or in other banks, which in turn will keep 1% ($9.90) and lend the remainder ($980.10).

With an initial deposit of $1000 and a reserve ratio of 1%, the total money that can be created is $100000.

In January 2012 the ECB established that the reserves of European Banks should be 1% of their total deposits.

In March 2020 the FED established that the reserves of US banks should be 0% of their total deposits.

Yes, you read that right, 0%.

Do you understand why I am in Bitcoin? DIGNITY.

After 23 years after 9/11 I wanted to soak in again what happened, the me of 23 years ago is not the same as it is now.

My conclusions today are:

- There are humans who are heroes, it is in the blood, nothing more can be said, specifically I am referring to firefighters.
- No matter how much woke ideology they put in your head, in extreme situations men take care of women.
- We can criticize the U.S. government, but we must differentiate between the government and the people, the people of the U.S. are a different kettle of fish, my respects.
- It seems stupid to me the controlled demolition, another thing is that the U.S. government let it happen.

But first and foremost I will keep the good, I will keep the heroes, my respects to the firemen, policemen, health pardoners and unknown men who gave their lives for others regardless of the fact that they work for a murderous state.

The cultural struggle against socialism is extremely difficult.

In capitalism you have to tell people to make a living for themselves without state aid.

The promise is that they will have a more prosperous nation.

In socialism you offer people help so that they can live.

The promise is that they will have a more just nation.

In capitalism you receive no initial gift, in socialism you receive an initial gift.

The scientific method knows which of the two options is valid, but human egoism does not.

The same thing happened to me, I will always remember the idea when I was listening to music with wireless headphones and I said, why do people still use cable (although I know this is debatable)? at that very moment I thought, I'm an idiot, what am I doing saving in Fiat?


You wake up, you have no goal, you are a robot, just another day, you just want the 8 hours you will spend in that prison called work to pass quickly.

You arrive at work, nobody is happy, all are bad faces, there is no fellowship because nobody has a goal, everyone wants the same thing, that the 8 hours pass as quickly as possible.

You leave work, you are consumed, you don't feel like anything, simply because you don't have a goal, you don't do anything to take care of your mind or your body.

And so your days go by, until the day of your retirement arrives and you still don't have a goal, you simply stop working like a slave and wait for your death by feeding yourself with drugs.

It's the Fiat world, it's the clown world.

But there is hope, there are people who wake up with a goal, to be free, maybe they get it, maybe they don't, but having a goal in life, a real and tangible goal, changes everything.

Get it through your head, those of you waiting for a debt crisis will die waiting.

The system was created to run on debt, money itself is debt, the more debt the more the system is entrenched, why would a debt crisis happen?

The system will fail because people will opt for hard money, money that is not debt, like Bitcoin, but it will not fail because of the amount of debt, the system is designed to grow debt.


It is very weird that we are getting back to 1970s price of airplane tickets - but not for any kind of premium service. The dropping of price of air travel was one of the nice things of technological progress, interconnecting the world.

There is no more real proof of work than Bitcoin.

Securing the Bitcoin network is far cheaper and more efficient than propping up fiat currency.

To destroy Bitcoin you have to use a lot of energy, the energy used in Bitcoin is not wasteful energy, the usefulness of Bitcoin as an uncensorable international payment system is tremendous, and it is much cheaper than central banks supported by their armies.


POW

Proof of work is the basis of every capitalist system.

The proof of work consists of less theory and more facts, face the results of reality.

With the proof of work, the good worker prospers, the good entrepreneur succeeds, and the bad actors fail.

In today's world, that is, in the clown world, there is no proof of work, most trades are useless, people are unproductive, governments confiscate the little real work that people do, and the system rewards bad actors. In clown world everything is facade, everything is farce, look at the social networks, pretend and pretend, look at linkedin, all lies.

Bitcoin follows liquidity cycles, Bitcoin follows power law, or perhaps liquidity follows a power law?

The three indicators I follow are:

The dollar liquidity of the system given by the formula:

$= WALCL - (WDTGAL + RRPONTSYD)

Where:

WALCL = The total assets of the Federal Reserve System.

WDTGAL = The General Account of the U.S. Treasury deposited at the Fed.

RRPONTSYD = Reverse repurchase agreements on Treasury securities sold by the Federal Reserve in reverse open market transactions.

WALCL if it grows gives liquidity to the dollar system because the Fed buys debt (among other things) and pours dollars into the system.

WDTGAL if it grows it detracts from the liquidity of the system because it is the money in the U.S. Treasury's general account that is immobilized at the Fed.

RRPONTSYD if it grows it takes liquidity out of the system as these are operations in which the Fed temporarily sells Treasury securities with an agreement to buy them back later by temporarily taking money out of circulation in exchange for Treasury securities.

The second indicator is the global money supply m2 given by the world's main central banks.

And the third indicator is MOVE, this index measures implied volatility in the US bond options market, similar to how the VIX index measures volatility in the stock market. When the MOVE index is high, it indicates that investors expect higher volatility in interest rates. This can lead to decreased liquidity in the bond market, as investors may become more cautious and less willing to buy or sell bonds in an uncertain environment. On the other hand, a low MOVE index suggests expectations of interest rate stability, which can increase liquidity by encouraging more buying and selling activity.

The perfect storm is for liquidity in the dollar system to soar, money supply m2 to increase and MOVE volatility to decrease.

As we can see m2 is rising, move volatility is falling and when rates fall it will fall even further, we just need the catalyst of dollar liquidity.

https://m.primal.net/KiOC.png

On the other hand, the power law indicator indicates that we are close to the beginning of the next bullish cycle.

Since I do not have enough mathematical knowledge, I would like to know if it is really the liquidity of the international monetary system that follows a power law and not bitcoin.

https://m.primal.net/KiOE.png

Although in both cases the result is the same, bitcoin is a proxy for global liquidity, bitcoin was created to penalize the issuance of money.

Remember what happens to those who deny covid? remember what happens to those who deny the global warming hoax? remember what happens to those who deny the woke ideology?

Do you see the points of union?

The holocaust narrative has been a way to keep Europe morally and economically subdued through guilt and to control a strong Germany.

They certainly succeeded.

You will understand if you are a bit intelligent that I am not defending the Nazis, just unpacking the logic behind the Holocaust narrative and its promotion through film, literature and politics.

The reality if you dig a little, is that even more people died in the Soviet gulags than in the concentration camps, yet no movies are made about it.

If you hate me for what I say then you are not ready for the truth, I guess that's why you are still saving in fiat and got your dose of mRNA.

Wake up, the Holocaust numbers are not true, the victors write the history.

Much is said about concentration camps, when all nations have had concentration camps, including the United States.

Little is said about who has been the only country that has used nuclear bombs against civilians.

And now the same people who have been victimizing themselves for centuries are creating their own holocaust.

There are no good and bad states, they are all murderers and thieves.

Debt, with the help of compound interest, is the only asset class that grows without any regard to entropy. All assets depreciate, and require external energy as inputs to reverse entropy. Not debt. Debt grows infinitely with mathematical precision over time. With the help of state violence, it is the perfect scam to enslave populations.

Fredrick Soddy talked about this in his books on thermoeconomics back 100 years ago. He predicted everything would be swallowed up by debt as it has been today.


Today's money is based on debt and as debt grows money must also grow to make the debt redeemable.

Few understand this, this translates into all finite assets going up, your money in the bank does not go up, but more significantly Bitcoin is the finite asset that goes up the most.

I have given you the trick to pass you the game.


Good morning!

Your bitcoin node is your vote, no matter what the miners decide, you decide what to write in the chain, bitcoin is like a living organism that replicates its cells, a node is a cell, the new cells will take their dna from the old cells, from your node, you decide which cells survive, you decide which cells will transmit their genetic material.

If the nodes do not decide to include a certain mined transaction, it does not survive, it does not replicate in eternity. Miners are obliged to follow the consensus, your node has more power than you think.

Bitcoin needs more nodes, it is the best way to protect your bitcoins.

Liquid is not completely anonymous, but through swaps you can achieve anonymity, Lightning is anonymous with nuances, depending on whether you are the sender or the receiver, and privacy can be improved using different techniques.

In short, your statement is true, but knowing what is being done.


DarkFi is a very interesting project, with DarkFi we can transfer Bitcoin anonymously, it is a tornado cash by default.

Strong points:

- Decentralized
- Anonymous (ZK proofs)

Weak points:

- It's a blockchain, it's not scalable.
- The other receiver has to be on DarkFi as well.

At the end of the day, you have to have a set of tools that allow you to use your bitcoin anonymously, the darkness is looming faster than privacy develops in Bitcoin.

#25 Base Money Update: 7th Year & Counting

For six full years I've been updating and commenting on the status of global central bank money on Twitter. As the seventh year of my research commences, for 2024 Q2, it's about time to bring it home to the better bird protocol. This is a much more philosophically aligned place to focus in on the signal when it comes to our money, and I'm happy to finally convert these posts to long-form here.

**This is quarterly update #25, for 2024 Q2.**

If you have followed [my work](https://www.porkopolis.io/) before, then you know that the constant hymn I've sung while speaking publicly about Bitcoin is that the only, economically comparable money supply in the fiat world to 21 million bitcoins is what economists call the "monetary base," or "base money." This is a corporeal money supply that has existed across all of modern economic and central banking epochs. For an apples-to-apples, ontological comparison with Bitcoin, look no further then Base money.

## So what is it?

It is *central bank money*, comprised of two supplies:

1. **Physical currency**: Notes and coins, or “cash;”
2. **Bank reserves**: The “Master account” that each commercial bank holds with its central bank.

Now, why do I refer to this as, "Central bank money?" This is because, unlike all other money supplies in the fiduciary banking world (like M1/M2/M3), the Monetary base is the sole and ultimate money supply controlled by the central bank. It is, literally, the *printing press*.

What follows won't be a lesson in reserve ratios or monetary economics. The point is that you simply understand that ***there is*** a money supply that central banks solely control, and of course (of course!) this is what Bitcoin's 21 million are up against.

The monetary base is to the core of the entire fiat financial system, as 21 million bitcoins are to the core of the Bitcoin protocol.

One is open and permissionless, and one is not.

By the way, the monetary base is essentially (though not entirely) analogous to the *total liabilities* of a central bank, so we can (basically) say that the monetary base is the "balance sheet" of each central bank.

**On cash**. Quick notes on the above. Certainly you understand what "cash" is, and it is indeed an instrument that has been fully monopolized by each central bank in each nation around the world--only they can print it. Even though it is true that banks in more free banking societies in the past could freely print and strike notes and coins, the central bank (or state) monopoly has been around for a long time. Kublai Khan was the first to do it 750 years ago.

**On bank reserves**. Don't stress your brain on this too much, but this is the main "settlement money" that banks use between each other, when they want to settle their debts. It is digital now (Fedwire in US, CHAPS in UK), but it doesn't technically have to be, and of course before modern technology took over even a few decades ago, it was not.

These two stacks of retail and wholesale cash, stacks of *central bank money*, are what makes up the **Monetary base**. This is the *printing press*. Only this compares to 21 million bitcoins.

And gold, and silver by the way.

Final note, central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, which are simply LARPing on Bitcoin's success, are indeed created by central banks, and they are indeed classified as Base money. They are going to be a "third rail." They are thankfully incredibly small, pilot projects today. We will see how far democracies will be tested, as autocracies no doubt will mainstream them; but for now, consider them, at least economically, to be inconsequential to the update below.

With that review out of the way, onward to Q2 update for 2024.

## Bitcoin is the **6th largest money in the world**.

In February 2024, it surpassed the monetary base of the United Kingdom, that is its value was larger than the Bank of England's balance sheet, and it remains so to this day.

As of 30 June 2024, there are four central bank balance sheets larger than Bitcoin:

1. **Federal Reserve (dollar)**: $5.73 trillion
2. **European Central Bank (euro)**: $5.19 trillion equivalent
3. **People's Bank of China (yuan)**: $5.11 trillion equivalent
4. **Bank of Japan (yen)**: $4.20 trillion equivalent

So if we only look at this from a "fiat" perspective, then Bitcoin is indeed the 5th largest money in the world.

However, the all-important monetary metal throughout history that even a child knows about--gold--is still king at around **$15 trillion in value**, or 6.1 billion ounces worldwide. Note, this does not include gold lost/recycled through industry; in that case, it is estimated that about 6.8 billion ounces of gold have been mined throughout humanity.

![](https://blossom.primal.net/21e9bcba7166efbd1f50b48e4bae3650054b864c2358b61dd05ccf9333939193.png)*Update #25 Executive Summary*

Silver, for what it's worth, is still a big "monetary" metal; though it is true, much more silver is gobbled up in industry compared to gold. There are about 30.9 billion ounces of non-industrial silver floating around the world (most of it in jewelry and silverware form) that is valued in today's prices at $930 billion. Bitcoin bigger.

## **State of the Print: $26.1 trillion**.

If we add up the Big Five central banks already mentioned above (again, Bitcoin being larger than the Bank of England's monetary base), as well as the next 45 central banks, we get to a total, USD equivalent value of **$26.1 trillion in base money across the world**.

If we consider $26.1 trillion as the Big Boss of central bank money, the figure in totality, then Bitcoin at $1.2 trillion network value indeed has some way to go. We can also imagine how the Pareto distribution occurs even in money, if Bitcoin after only 15 years is already larger than every central bank money in the world except for four of them. Wild to ponder.

## Inflation: 12.7% per year.

It is also true that for two years they have been trying to "normalize" their balance sheets after the 2020-22 Covid madness, stimulus, and money printing. Of course, they have been trying all along to normalize since the 2008 global finance crisis (GFC), but I digress.

When I first started my website, I vowed never to use such a non-corporeal thing as CPI to discuss how much things cost.  A "general increase in the level of consumer prices," or CPI, as measured by planning boards around the world, is not a real thing.  It may be calculated by people with the best of intentions, but it has been manipulated and volumes have been written about it.  I don't use it.

I have always defined inflation as the classical economists did: Inflation is an increase in the "stock" of money. If we know the all-time stock of euros printed by the European Central Bank now, and we know the all-time stock of euros printed by the ECB 12 months ago, then it is very easy to calculate the annual inflation of the euro.  Not only is it easy, but *it is real*.  It is corporeal.  Watch what they do, not what they say.

But we should be rigorous. If inflation is an increase in the stock of money, what is a decrease in the stock of money? Does this happen? Well, this is *deflation*, and yes it does happen.  You may be surprised to learn that for two years central banks around the world have collectively been shrinking their balance sheets, and thus we have been in a state of deflation.

With my research we can visually see all of this, and it is here:

![](https://blossom.primal.net/7b45c11c9345fbf26fdd44ce7007c737f14a4351d8b4028773d374612b3c1fd2.png)*Inflation, or Deflation?*

Turns out that the normalization is more difficult than they thought, as they are still at $26.1 trillion, and before Covid the global monetary base was $20 trillion.  Nonetheless, they have stopped the money printing of 2020 and 2021.

I have written much about my [methodology for these reports](https://www.porkopolis.io/methodology/), but the bottom line is that the area curve on the left axis (the base money itself, denominated in dollars), will not necessarily reflect what is happening with the actual money print, trailing 12-month % figures on the right axis (the growth rate or inflation rate).  It is a *Wittgenstein's ruler* thing.

The blended, global, annual rate of central bank money printing at the moment is nearly flat, just slightly negative at -0.3%.

The flat levels and the slight rate of deflation have been relatively consistent for the last two years, but if you look at that the 2022 peak of $30 trillion, this may seem like they have cut the supply much more than this.  *They haven't*.  This is because, on balance, ***most of the world's currencies have fallen faster in value against the dollar, even though they continue to print***.

This is why we have seen $4 trillion in base money shed in value over the last couple years of rising interest rates, but the *actual decrease the rate of base money printed* has only been around **-1% to -2% per year**, when measured across each currency's native unit growth, each month.

And for the high signal, no-noise figure in my attempt to get you to one number to understand how much central banks have compounded their fiat base money stack across 50+ years, **that figure is 12.7% per year**.

And Powell says he wants to cut rates (print money) again.  Wild.

## Let's compare.

For the rest of this report, I want to do something different and simply spend some time looking at the compound annual growth rates of various corporeal things around the world, in order that we can compare those to the growth of the fiat monetary base, and Bitcoin.

Remember, most things in the financial and economic world grow exponentially.  This simply means that they grow *constantly*.  The financial term here is compound growth, or compound interest.  This rate of growth can indeed change year to year (interest rates can go up, or down), but over the years we can observe a strong trend, and that is what I want to summarize here for you.

## Population.

The world has grown exponentially at **1.7% per year** over the last 75 years.  However, despite all the overpopulation myths you've probably heard, this rate of growth is actually falling, well below trend, and we only grow at **0.9% per year** at the moment.

## GDP.

The United States has grown its economy at 5.2% compounded per year since the founding of the republic.  We are at the higher end of this trend right now, $28 trillion per year and growing at **5.8% per year**.

## Stocks.

Stocks grow exponentially as well, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.  The growth rate is **7.3% per year** for the S&P 500, the main US index that tracks more than 80% of total market caps.

## Stocks. With Dividends.

If you reinvest those dividends into the same stock market, you'll earn more.  Still compound growth, but 2% higher at **9.3% per year** for the S&P.

## Bonds.

Bonds are supposedly safer than stocks (bondholders get paid back first), and more cash flowing.  If you look at the longest running bond index in the US, it grows at **7.1% per year**, compounded.

## Base Money.

As we've discussed, base money grows, if re-weighting the native unit growth each month, at **12.7% compounded per year**.  However, this trendline analysis looks at it differently.  It simply looks at the USD value of the global monetary base (again, **$26.1 trillion**), and draws an exponential trendline on that USD equivalent growth for 50+ years.  In other words, this is going to be *after all currency fluctuations* have played themselves out.

Do you think the growth rate here will be higher or lower?  Actually lower, at **10.3% per year**.  But there is a big asterisk here, as more base money supplies are added in later periods than in the 1970s and 1980s, so it is not as rigorous as the 12.7% figure.  In any event, one might expect this trendline analysis to *actually be higher* in that case, so it goes to show how quickly currency values can fall against the global reserve currency!

## Silver.

This is total ounces ever mined.  They trend upward at **1.4% per year**.

## Gold.

This is total ounces ever mined.  Gold trends upward at **1.7% per year**.  Faster than silver.  Surprised?  Notice the R-squared (goodness of fit) for both silver and gold.

## Bitcoin.

Bitcoins grow according to a basic logarithmic curve.  Trying to draw percentiles is pointless here, and even measuring a trendline is somewhat pointless, as everyone knows the bitcoins prescribed into the future, by the protocol.  Better to just quote the trailing 12-month growth figure, and it is **1.7% per year** and falling.  For now, identical to gold.

## Silver price.

Since 1971 it's trended at 3.4% per year.  Silver bug?

## Gold price.

Since 1971 it's trended at 5.0% per year.  Gold bug?

## Bitcoin price.

Note, we have finally arrived at something that grows differently than exponential.  As I've observed since 2018, Bitcoin grows according to a power trend.  Did you notice that all the prior exponential trends displayed themselves as straight lines on log scale?  Well, with Bitcoin, the power trendline gradually falls across time, but the growth is still well larger than anything we've covered thus far.

Why?  It's being adopted, of course.

Bitcoin's power trendline has grown **169.9% per year** since Bitcoin Pizza Day in 2010.  Note that this is something akin to a "Lifetime Achievement" figure, and it will continue to fall every day.  Over the prior 12 months ending 30 June 2024, Bitcoin grew **105.6% over the year**.  The compound growth of the power trend today is **45% per year**.  By 2030 it will fall to "only" **36% per year**.

Oh yes, and it is free, open, and permissionless.

## To summarize.

That's a lot of data that came at you quick.  I've compiled it all in a helpful table here for you to review at any time.  This is the world at 2024, Q2:

## Base money concluded

The following table gives you a complete summary of the fiat currencies, gold, silver, and Bitcoin figures used in this analysis, for this quarter.  Please print it out if you like, it is meant to be a helpful, in-depth companion when fiat friends come asking.

Thank you for reading!  If you enjoyed, please consider zapping, and you can also donate to my [BTCPay](https://donations.cryptovoices.com/) on [my website](https://www.porkopolis.io/) if you'd like to help keep this research going.

Confidential Liquid Peg-in

Elements Core v23.2.2 introduced a vsize discount for confidential transactions, making Liquid payments with blinded amounts as cheap or cheaper than explicit ones. However, blinding a single peg-in claim isn’t very private since the linked Bitcoin UTXO shows the explicit amount. To achieve true confidentiality, multiple claims should be mixed into one transaction, similar to CoinJoin.

PSWeb v1.7.0 implemented “ClaimJoin,” allowing nodes to join peg-in claims anonymously. Nodes send invitations to join, and communication is encrypted and relayed through other nodes. When all peg-ins mature, the initiator prepares a large PSET with inputs and outputs shuffled randomly, which participants blind and sign. Up to 10 claims can be joined, but the process can take up to 34 hours.

If any participant becomes unresponsive, they are kicked out, and if the initiator fails, participants revert to standard claims. As a last resort, peg-ins can be claimed manually with elements-cli. All sensitive operations happen locally on the node, ensuring privacy.

Using dictionary words is safe as long as you use more than 7 words (7 is more than enough) and they are chosen randomly as for example from the EFF list, in such a case the entropy is very high and your passprhase is safe, this is usually easier to remember than a 20 character alphanumeric password.

Many banks use a 6-digit pin number, which is very indicative of how concerned they are about the security of their customers.

The banking system is the most dishonest industry on the planet.


These tables circulating on the internet of brute force password hacks are totally incorrect.

These tables only work for passwords generated randomly by computers or applications such as KeePassXC, if the password is generated by a human they are useless, since humans are predictable and when a password is hacked by brute force different types of dictionaries are used which substantially shortens the hacking time.

If you want to measure well the entropy of your password with an algorithm that takes into account dictionary attacks and predictive attacks use the KeepassXC calculator.

Recommendation: Never use human generated passwords.

In P2P networks if they do not use some kind of routing type tor as session, we can find out if A talks to B as would be the case of Keet, although you can not know the content of the messages because they are encrypted if you can know that they have spoken to each other, you're dead.

With Simplex you can not know that A has spoken to B, simply because there is no such persistent identity and also the sending of messages is rotating between different servers, add also that there is now routing of messages so it is impossible to know where the message comes from. Therefore you can neither know the content of messages nor can you know that A has spoken to B.


This is a "vulnerability" specific to all p2p networks.

It is intrinsic to their operation, otherwise they would not be distributed networks.

 P2p networks are not good at offering privacy.


If you already start from lies with the Simplex protocol, what do you expect me to argue with you?

You have relied on securemessaginapp's analysis which is totally incorrect.

And you show that you have no idea how the Simplex protocol works, end of conversation.


Metadata and network traceability, you can easily create a communication graph.

If you want a more private p2p application try berty, but Simplex is still superior from a privacy point of view.

WALCL = Total assets held by the Federal Reserve.

WDTGAL = general account of the U.S. Treasury

Abiogenic petroleum origin, you have a lot of literature about it.

One of the first to formulate this theory was the creator of the periodic table of the elements Dmitri Mendeleev.


Moreover, banks are not even necessary, since companies can settle directly with each other.

I don't think Lightning is the scaling solution for the end user simply because it is not feasible to create a Lightning channel for every person on earth, but it is feasible to use Lightning for international and national settlements between banks and companies.


The moral of the story is that despite the problems and complexity of lightning for the home user, Lightning Network is perfect for use by central banks or even to replace them.

Lightning Network is the best money settlement layer currently available.

nostr:note1adtgrlva0m4m3gnn42yyhpgm0nlrxzanfn4800d0vtyjlqnkk9qsywefam


Currently, international transactions between countries operate as a Lightning Network channel.

The central banks of the countries have reserves in different currencies and gold. The international transactions between two countries are recorded but not realized, there comes a time after a month or even months where the settlement is made. At this point it may happen that one of the two countries has to buy or sell foreign currency to settle the settlement.

It is a totally rudimentary process.

With Lightning Network this would be immediate, it would not even be necessary to carry out the process in deferred as it is currently done, the only possible compensation would be to add liquidity to the Lightning channel by one of the parties.

GOLD:

- Temporary high saleability (Its value is maintained and increases over time).
- Low spatial saleability (It is expensive to transport, international settlements are expensive).

FIAT:

- Low temporal saleability (Its value decreases over time)
- High spatial saleability (international settlements are cheap, a simple book entry in a DB, no transport required)

BITCOIN:

- High Temporal salability (Its value increases over time).
- High spatial marketability (international settlements are cheap, a simple book entry in a distributed and unalterable DB, no transport required)

Lightning network is perfect for large scale settlements, few understand. Lightning network removes the transaction restriction that Bitcoin has on the blockchain. If a Bitcoin standard were adopted, central banks could use Lightning Network for international settlements.

That said, we would not even need central banks to perform this type of settlements, these operations would be carried out directly between companies through the Lightning Network, contrary to what happens now.

This makes Bitcoin the best money in the world today.

Simplex has the same architecture as email, your server is only used for receiving messages.

It is always safer to use your own server, it guarantees that the executed code is legitimate and keeps the network more decentralized.

However there is no problem if you use the generic servers.

It is as if in the Nazi's enigma machine they told you to trust their secure element, a black box of a private company that assures you that it encrypts it and that they can not decipher it, simply because this company says so, and if I find a vulnerability in the secure element I can not say it, I have to continue with a vulnerable machine, I do not think that the Nazis would accept it.

Cryptography has to be totally transparent to know that it cannot be broken, it has always been like that and it is the military method, hence the NSA or NIST for example, make the algorithms public and want them to be used, to be tested.

No one would trust a closed algorithm and even less that depends on closed hardware.

Nostr is not private, with anyone's public key you can see who they have sent private messages to.

In Venezuela people are being detained for political ideas, it is not something trivial.

Absolute privacy is essential in such cases.


Let's say that a secure element is like a safe that in theory cannot be hacked, but this is false, its robustness is based on obfuscation.

For the customer it means that you have to trust it.


No, but it just doesn't meet my standards.


This would be a very long talk, but in summary:

- simplex is decentralized (not federated).

- simplex uses more robust encryption.

- simplex focuses on privacy, elements does not.

- Simplex does not depend on DNS.

- in simplex there are no identities and therefore no metadata is generated.

- simplex uses different routes for receiving and sending messages.

They are really two very different tools, one focused on privacy and resilience, the other more focused on group chats.


Use only hardware wallets with no secure element but be clear on how to make them non-vulnerable.

- Jade (not vulnerable)
- trezor T (vulnerable, must use passphrase or enable sd protection)
- Next trezor with tropic chip (open hardware)


Secure elements and hardware wallets

Why are secure elements used in Hardware Wallets?

Plain and simple for UX.

If your encryption depends on a numerical PIN of a few digits you are screwed.

The secure element adds a layer of encryption so that in case you can extract the seed from the chip you can not attack it by brute force.

If you use a sufficiently strong passphrase or if hardware wallets allow you to enter a password for encryption, there would be no need for secure elements, it's all about UX.

On the other hand, in cryptography you should never trust. Secure elements are a black box, and by contract you can't even publish their vulnerabilities. What's the point of using encryption if you're trusting a third party? that's useless.

It is true that there are solutions like coldcard where two secure elements are used so you don't have to trust them, but I still think it's stupid, I don't care about the UX, I want my bitcoins to be safe.

When you understand this, you realize how stupid the hardware wallet industry is.


My point is that Bitcoin is money.


It uses secure element (I don't like it) although they have followed the trezor safe model and use secure element with open firmware, so, in theory, you could test the specification and check all the inputs and outputs generated by the chip.

From my point of view, I rule out any HWW that uses secure element, except for what trezor is building with Tropic.

Secure Element are black boxes, by contract you can't even disclose the vulnerabilities found.

In cryptography there should be no trust.


Bitcoin is not money (say some Bitcoiners), but Russia will use it to evade international sanctions and make cross-border payments.

I remind you that this law is approved.

Sometimes I get the feeling that in the Bitcoin community there are a lot of people who suffer from constipation.

Is there any theoretical rule that tells you what volume of exchange in goods and services or what acceptance has to have a form of money to become money?

Use laxative, it will open a new perspective on life.


The problem is the metadata, it is possible to associate your phone number and other people's numbers to know when you have spoken.


Correct, in case blockstream stops giving service you would only have to restore the seed in another wallet or operate in the other mode that Jade has which is air-gapped (like seedsigner).

There is no risk of loss of funds.

On the other hand you can set up your own server:

https://help.blockstream.com/hc/en-us/articles/12800132096793-Set-up-a-personal-blind-oracle

You also have it on Umbrel:

https://apps.umbrel.com/app/blockstream-blind-oracle


The ios app has full functionality including tor.

In this case "for the moment" there are no restrictions.


No, the seed is encrypted with PIN (Local) + secret (Blockstream Server).

The seed is stored locally on the Jade.

What does this do? If you extract the seed from the chip and try to brute force attack it, it will be useless, because apart from the pin, you need the secret (256 bits) stored in the blockstream server.

So they would have to hack also the Blockstream server and have your jade and also know the pin.

On the other hand the blockstream server can not do anything, it is only a shared secret, the blockstream server at no time access to the Jade.

In the U.S., almost all platforms that have access to ETFs can buy, except for Vanguard clients 😂 .


Jade if you operate in air-gapped mode is exactly the same as seedsigner.

I personally don't like this mode because it makes me have the seed available.

If you operate by USB it is like a trezor, but without vulnerabilities, that is, you can not extract the seed due to its multi-signature system that encrypts the seed with the pin and a secret hosted on blockstream servers.


Yes, the form in quotation marks "difficult".

Depending on where in the world you live you will have platforms that will offer it or not.

But why buy a Bitcoin ETF where you pay a premium for custody and maintenance, when you can buy Bitcoin yourself?

Gold ETFs still make sense to me, because holding gold is dangerous, but holding Bitcoin is an asymmetric risk, it is very easy and safe to hold, although it depends on how you look at it, it all depends on a password or numbers in your head 😂 .


Signal is a centralized service where:

- You have to trust their servers to run the code they tell you is published on github.
- You give your phone number to create an account and they look for contacts, aliases do not allow you to create an anonymous account.
- The metadata is not private.
- Easily censored by an ISP.
- Its desktop versions are based on chrome and do not encrypt the information, which makes it trivial to extract.


Another important fact is that Simplex is seamlessly integrated with Tor and you can access servers that use Tor, so it is technically impossible for an ISP to restrict the protocol.

In case your ISP restricts Tor you can use bridges or snowflake.

You must have tools to be able to communicate privately and that governments can not restrict (Simplex).

And you must have money that is not censurable (Bitcoin) and that your government cannot confiscate, and if you need private money use Lightning Network.

Everything Blockstream does is opensource, I have never understood the hatred of the community towards blockstream, I guess ignorance is very bold.

As notes:

- Jade is fully opensource, both hardware, software and firmware.
- Because of this you can build your own Jade (DIY) avoiding supply chain issues.
- It solves the problem of secure elements through a multi-signature pin system.
- If you don't understand how such a multi-signature pin system works and you are fucking paranoid, you can build your own oracle server. This doesn't really make any sense if you understand how blockstream's oracle server works, other than blockstream may stop providing service.
- Jade is really inexpensive compared to other competitors.
- You can do air-gapped transactions.
- For those who criticize Bluetooth you can disable it through firmware so that it is totally inoperative due to the lack of low level driver.

Honestly, Jade is a HWW made for the community and by cryptographers and not for profit (in my opinion), blockstream does crazy things that don't exactly benefit their pockets (also in my opinion), that's why I don't understand many times the hate that is poured against them.

Here you have the instructions to make your own Jade:

Yes, I don't know why the community thinks coldcard is the most secure wallet, it is not.

First of all, it changes its model and architecture too often.

Secondly, they have already had problems with secure element providers and have had to switch to one of them.

Third, it uses Secure Element, which is not recommended in cryptography.

Fourth, it uses RFC6979 signatures to mitigate the attack mentioned in the article, which as mentioned in the article is dangerous and impractical.

Fifth, it is not opensource and they took advantage of the trezor architecture.


And reading criticisms of Jade I see that whoever makes them does not even know how the "virtual" secure element of Jade works.

In the absence of an open source secure element is the best option by far.

A correction, it is not so much the Fed rates that are important as dollar liquidity.

Over the last few years rates have been high but they have continued to inject liquidity.

Although they have kept dollar liquidity capped.

I hope they will now release the kraken.

It's not even about investing, it's about understanding how the system works.

- Global liquidity m2 in vertical
- Waiting for the Fed rate cut.

The rest is noise, within a year the price of bitcoin will be more than double the current price.

No need to play buy and sell, just buy unfalsifiable assets and hold them.


To make my position clear, I am not defending US presidents, I am an anarcho-capitalist, all politicians are murderers and thieves, there is no good politician, none.

What I am saying is that these communist dictators are even richer than the presidents of the richest nation in the world.

To put in perspective the amount of money stolen.

That was the intention of my comment.

Neither I understand your comment nor you understand mine 😂


Fidel Castro's children are multimillionaires, Hugo Chavez's children are multimillionaires, Nicolas Maduro's children are multimillionaires.

Any of the children of these sons of bitches have more money than any former president of the United States.

Poverty for others, wealth for me.


Just 3 months after this reflection, the United Kingdom is saying enough is enough.

Children are not to be touched.

Rocky X

Who is John Galt?

When I was younger I thought the world could be changed.

I understood that privacy was key to gaining and maintaining freedom.

I spent many years trying to teach people privacy techniques.

Then I met Bitcoin and understood that to get freedom and keep it Bitcoin was also necessary.

I wasted a few years trying to teach people privacy techniques and Bitcoin.

Over time I've realized that it's useless, people don't want freedom, the world has become so fucking grotesque that I just watch it and try to laugh at everything that happens.

If I have to give you a piece of advice, accumulate as much Bitcoin as you can and laugh.

It's nice that politicians are pandering to bitcoiners, but promises are cheap. There is a major insurmountable obstacle to the US govt buying bitcoin: The US govt does NOT own or control the US Federal Reserve, which is a cartel of private banks. The US President can't just tell this cartel what to do with their reserves. The US dollar is the sacred cow of this cartel, and it's how they rob the entire planet. They're not about to give up this racket because some politician made a promise whose implications he doesn't understand. They're not going to buy a million bitcoins, because a commitment to purchase bitcoin will just encourage everyone to dump their dollars and buy bitcoin, and destroy the value of the dollar and their ability to rob the world with it. If you think they managed to build this century-old cartel while being stupid enough to fall for this or powerless enough to stop it, you're going to be disappointed to find out they're actually just evil.

But can't the US government buy bitcoin itself, without the Fed? With whose money exactly? The US government is fiscally irresponsible and its biggest expense is debt servicing. There are good reasons your irresponsible debt slave friends never get bitcoin and keep laughing at you when you bring it up. Irresponsible high time preference people and institutions don't understand the concept of long term savings. More importantly, the US government needs the Fed to buy its debt and keep its Treasury ponzi going. Buying bitcoin in spite of the Fed's opposition is a full-on declaration of war by the US government against the Fed and the fiat dollar, and that's just not something that Trump, or Kennedy, is up for. Trump has repeatedly praised the Fed. Kennedy wants to implement some ridiculous low interest rate subsidized home lending scheme only possible with the Fed creating cheap money. These men are not Andrew Jackson, nor are they even trying to be him.

The real enemy of bitcoin, and humanity, is the Fed. The US government is just its tool, and politicians are interchangeable actors that haven't mattered in decades. You're not going to destroy the Fed by promising to vote for one actor over another. Your only chance of destroying it is for bitcoin to grow larger than the dollar and Treasury bonds, and for dollar users to continue to get impoverished into oblivion while bitcoiners thrive with their superior technology. I humbly suggest you not waste time and sats on the politics circus, and work hard to stack sats instead.


Hahaha I love clown world, a man against women in the women's boxing category of the Olympics.

Something that makes me laugh and at the same time repulses me is when someone says to me:

"Capitalism is exhausted, it has to be re-founded or the system has to be changed."

Imbecile, what capitalism is exhausted? In the United States there has been no capitalism for more than 100 years, in Europe there has never been capitalism.

Which capitalism must be re-founded, idiot? in any case, it is necessary to put an end to state interventionism.

I totally agree with you.


Historically people think that communism failed and ended with the Soviet Union, nothing could be further from the truth.

While it is true that communism ended in Russia, communism has been present in the U.S. since December 23, 1913 when the Fed was founded.

Since then the degradation has been absolute until it became a social democracy and distorted the market.

The West has fully adopted social democracy which is the prelude to socialism, and some regions such as Europe are already fully into neosocialism/neocommunism.

Communism has been the great winner of the 21st century.


Venezuela in the '70s before it was touched by socialism.

Modern geniuses are far from being renaissance men, they specialize in one subject and are totally ignorant in other subjects.

Manipulable like a child.


We are bitcoiners, we are legion, we are religion, and we have our own creed, HODL.

Honor is our badge, perseverance our virtue.

Day after day we will stand up and fight, surrender is not allowed, justice is our blood.

Let's screw the system, let's end it, let's take away their power to create money, let's return to a world of virtue and leave decadence behind.

While so many are distracted cheering on their favourite larper coming to yell #Bitcoin,  I'll be continuing to exit the fiat system and I'll leave you with this reminder

Fuck it's such a relief to see that there are people who think like me 😂.

As a curiosity my body mass index is a bit higher than what it would have to be for my height (classic literature), years ago with a fat percentage of 12% an obese doctor and smoker told me I had to lose weight.


Something similar happens to my wife, she says that my way of eating(I don't like to call it diet) an it doesn't work for her.

She sneakily eats sweets, chocolate with sugar and all kinds of junk food 😂.

On the other hand I am aware that anything bad that happens to me will be blamed on my eating 😂, it's a losing battle.


When I started with the low carb diets I had a headache during the first few days, it is important to hydrate yourself so you don't have cramps, since carbohydrates retain water and that's why they cramp.

However this only happens at the beginning, until you "detox". My best athletic performances have been with a low carb extra-rich diet and prolonged fasting.

Never reducing the amount of calories.
