Bitcoin and Nostr embody TRUTH in its purest form.

Revisit the pivotal moments in human history that have led to our current state. The invention of language and the printing press enabled the widespread dissemination of information, unlocking massive human flourishing. The advent of the internet took this to the next level, freeing information from geographical constraints and facilitating global connectivity.

However, our current system is inherently flawed. It relies on humans trusting one another, often from a distance, without any guarantees of authenticity. Humans are notorious for their self-interest and propensity to deceive others when it serves them. This fundamental weakness has led to the proliferation of misinformation, manipulation, and control.

The game-changer lies in the emergence of uncorruptable value transfer protocols, such as Bitcoin. These systems allow us to transcend the need for human trust, instead relying on cryptographic proof and decentralized verification. For the first time, we can follow the value to determine TRUTH, unencumbered by intermediaries, biases, or agendas.

Nostr, as a social protocol, takes this concept further. By incentivizing the creation and dissemination of high-value information, it fosters an ecosystem where truth is rewarded and falsehoods are penalized. This paradigm shift has far-reaching implications, as it enables individuals to make informed decisions, free from the influence of manipulated narratives.

Imagine a world where information is no longer controlled by centralized authorities, and individuals are empowered to seek truth without interference. The potential for human flourishing is boundless. We're on the cusp of a revolution that will redefine the fabric of our society, and it's exhilarating to be part of it.

So pumped to be here with you all ❤❤

While you were busy making fun of the UK for criminalizing free speech, the UN finalized its Cybercrime Convention which will overrule bank secrecy and criminalize hacking, whistleblowing, and security research.

The convention, which was finalized last friday, drastically expands government surveillance powers and enables the widespread sharing of personal data between UN member states.

The convention mandates the identification, tracing, confiscation and seizure of "proceeds of crime, property, equipment or other instrumentalities" and the collection of real-time traffic and content data on behalf of requesting member states.

It further mandates member states to establish criminal offences for "the concealment or disguise of the true nature, source, location, disposition, movement or ownership of or rights with respect to property" and  "the conversion or transfer of property [...] for the purpose of concealing or disguising the illicit origin of the property" when committed intentionally.

As the Electronic Frontier Foundation explains, the convention includes "documents saved on personal computers or notes stored on digital devices. In essence, this means that private unshared thoughts and information are no longer safe. Authorities can compel the preservation, production, or seizure of any electronic data, potentially turning personal devices into spy vectors regardless of whether the information has been communicated".

While the treaty defers most articles to the governance of local laws, it states that states "shall not decline to act [...] on the ground of bank secrecy".

Sometimes I run into a tech guy on Twitter, who talks about how cypherpunk he is.

I’m just a financial analyst and investor, so that’s cool to hear. The more cypherpunks, the better. I like to fund cypherpunks.

But then I look around, and he’s not active on Nostr for over a year. He’s only active on centralized social media.

So then I am confused at how supposedly cypherpunk he is. Is he really that reliant on centralized media? Often, it turns out yes. If not, what other cryptographic proof does he have for his work?

As Nostr increasingly gains network adoption, it becomes weirder when I analyze why someone who is techie is highly active on Twitter but not at all on Nostr.


3 client settings I’d love to see on nostr:

1. Purist toggle - remove all reactions  from notes. Let me judge each note independent of social signal.

2. Zen mode toggle - give me an option to delay my notifications by a specified time (by me). The idea is that I don’t need to see all notifications instantly, thus reducing the need to constantly check to see if anyone reacted.

3. I think nos has this - disappearing notes. Doesn’t need to work perfectly, just that it makes and effort.

It is not true that Bitcoin’s rebellious, DIY, mid-seventies-like, Cypherpunk era is over.

The exact opposite is true.

Bitcoin was written after the mid-seventies Home Computer revolution took place and “ended”, putting the power of software development in everyone’s hands at a cost of essentially zero. Before that, to develop and run software, you had to book time on a large UNIX machine at a University, and that was only possible if you were enrolled as a student at an institution with a computer. Computer illiterates don’t know any of this important context and history.

Bitcoin was written on widely available, ubiquitous commodity computer equipment available from Walmart to Radio Shack. It was written in programming languages that were free and on operating systems that came for free with the machines they ran on. None of this was true previously; the cost of a commercial software license for AT&T UNIX was $30,000, out of reach for all but companies and educational institutions. Even the single user license of $150, whilst not an impediment for the die hard, was eliminated when Bitcoin was written by GNU. Universal availability of computing made the software development revolution possible. It meant that anyone anywhere could write software without permission, admission to University or supervision of any kind, and then they could distribute to anyone anywhere it without permission at a cost of near zero.

In the early days, software was distributed by mail order on floppy discs. Then it was distributed by BBS systems over telephone calls modem to modem. Now it is distributed over the Internet, for free. The commodification of computers and elimination of the cost of tooling to write software, remote connecting and expanded access to every form of intellectual pursuit in software from game development to book writing and research.

Can you see what’s coming next?

Universal access to programmable synthetic money in the form of Bitcoin will mean that anyone anywhere will be using Bitcoin. Nation States, hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds’ are irrelevant to this, and will continue to be downstream of the innovators from the public, just as they were and are with the Internet, email and Bitcoin. Nation states, hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds did not develop Bitcoin (or email or the web), and could not have developed it. They could not have imagined any of them, nor had they the skill to implement it. (See Paul Krugman’s predictions about the Internet being no more important than the Fax machine, or his most recent predictions about Bitcoin. What a joke!) The members of their impotent class will be, at best, peers on the network, like everyone else is. They are no longer special, privileged or required. At all.

That’s the whole point of Bitcoin, in case you didn’t know.

Jeremy Alaire famously said many years ago of the Bitcoin ecosystem, “It’s time for the grown ups now”. He was 100% wrong, and ended up peddling altcoins and unethical stablecoins because the immovable and immutable object “Bitcoin”, resists partially informed incomers with their clever plans to improve it. This feature of Bitcoin (and it is a feature, not a flaw) is what is currently being missed by FinTech bros, WallStreet Wonks, tenacious tangentials and other people who have just come to the ideas that spawned Bitcoin; reality no longer operates by proclamation of the self anointed.

It is a good thing that a small number of Americans are finally capitulating to Bitcoin, however in addition to capitulation, their parochial “Policeman of the World”, “my way or the highway”, “our institutions and governance models are the only possible way forward” mindset is best abandoned by them; no one on Earth wants to hear it, everyone is fed up with them, Bitcoin can’t hear it, and all real Bitcoiners ignore it.

The subconscious urge to control everything is strong in many characters; this is why rebellion is cast in a negative light by Statists. Change is not rebellion. Change is the essential process of all existence. Change is coming to what money is and how it is mediated, and in this change, the old players are removed from management, oversight, design or input of any kind. They are excluded. They are exsanguinated.

Yesterday’s men can’t conceive of any power outside of the familiar structures from their past; “the big boys” will always be the great powers. They don’t seem to realize (why should they?) that Bitcoin is sitting on top of something that has already completely eroded the power of many venerated “staple of modern life” institutions to great effect and universal benefit

Journalism: Junked
Music Distribution: Marginalized, Decimated
Publishing: Pulverized
Dictionaries: Destroyed
Telephone Companies: Trashed, Castrated
Censorship: Cauterized and Circumvented
Government Postal Services: Gutted, Piked, Slaughtered

Only the most naïve of people thinks the entry of Nation states, hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds as peers on the network abolishes Bitcoin’s rebellious, DIY, mid-seventies-like, cypherpunk era. On the contrary; the spread of Bitcoin makes Cypherpunk and the culture of rebellion the norm. It is Cypherpunks that are the innovators, and they’re continuing to prove it. Look at how one software company, Blockstream, run by a Cypherpunk, is providing financialization services to a nation state that were unimaginable before Bitcoin. All of this is obvious to anyone who can think.

The Cypherpunks and their direct descendants are building the new companies, software and services that cannot be revoked or “supervised” by outsiders, cowards, Statists, carpetbaggers, thieves, Socialists, and other human moths attracted to the bright flame of Bitcoin.

Look at Nostr for another example. While everyone downstream of Twitter as consumers complained bitterly about it, one man decided to offer a possible solution to it. No one saw it coming, or even thought it possible. Now, like it or not, an ecosystem has the very real potential (because it is real) of emerging on it, where the people using it cannot be told what to do or say.

This is exactly analogous with what happened with Bitcoin. Wall Street Wonks complaining bitterly about “the corrupt system” could not imagine Bitcoin, and then Bitcoin…existed, and now it cannot be stopped, like it or not, and its nature will not be changed because Bitcoin’s rebellious, DIY, mid-seventies-like, Cypherpunk era is not only not over but will never end. This is a safe prediction to make; look at how features of the web are developed, through the IETF process. The people at the coal face are doing the hard work of fundamental design, and corporations have nothing to do with it beyond paying the salaries of the designers; the “big players” don’t have a say in how things actually work.

Apple learned this the hard way by trying to introduce a new protocol called “AppleTalk.” Launched in the mid-1980s, AppleTalk was designed to facilitate networking in Apple environments, allowing Macintosh computers to connect and share resources seamlessly. Despite its initial success within Apple’s ecosystem, AppleTalk struggled to gain broader acceptance due to the dominance of other networking protocols like Ethernet and TCP/IP. Over time, as the industry standard shifted towards TCP/IP, Apple gradually phased out AppleTalk, officially discontinuing support for it in 2009. “2009”...a special year, wasn't it? This is exactly like Wall Street trying to “take over” Bitcoin and change it. It cannot happen, and there will be no “The Grownups are Here Now” moment in Bitcoin. History indicates this strongly, but you have to know your history in order to understand this.

These are just a few of many examples showing the nature of the change and who is being excluded as a consequence. Everyone who has the power to create software and services is fed up to the back teeth with being told what they are, what they can do, what they can say, how they must implement software tools, and being on the bottom rung of the perverted “Society” where Nation states, hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds have control over what money is and how it is allowed to move.

That’s over chaps.

The masses using Bitcoin at every level are together far more powerful than any Nation state, hedge fund or sovereign wealth fund. The masses using Bitcoin as money is an absolutely inevitable outcome, and it will happen on the terms of the Cypherpunks, not Nation states, hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds.


Hard to know if this is satire given the plethora of NGU simps who actually think this way


The broad crypto industry rallied hard soon after the White House threatened to veto the bill that would let banks custody digital assets. And now it’s making a big difference, with Congress voting strongly for it, the White House pulling their veto threat, etc.

While it’s right to pass that bill and let banks custody them if they want, it’s sad to see that the crypto industry response to that was like 100x bigger than the response to all of the anti-privacy stuff that has been happening.

The desire of people in the industry for banks to help pump their bags is way bigger than their desire to pave a way for freedom tech in general.

Much love to all those building and supporting real freedom tech.

Source viewable isn’t half as good as FOSS


Thank you for your service Parman. Your guides have helped me tremendously over the years 🫡


I have not publicly spoken much or asked questions about this for a few reasons. Firstly because I consider you to be a personal friend and I feel that you try to do the right thing in each of the projects and organizations that you are involved with. You helped our project out in numerous ways, especially early on when our core concept was brand new and still being proven out.

Neither opensats nor dorsey owes our project anything. I have been very clear about this, and I moreover feel that opensats is a net good for both the bitcoin and the nostr communities. But I have also avoided asking questions about the status of grants, much less about potential conflicts of interest, because I did not want to spoil Keith's chances at a grant, or negatively impact anyone else who might apply in the future for a SeedSigner-related grant. I think this speaks to the same self-censorship dynamics that jb55 has referenced.

You insinuate in the above that there has been at least one vote on a SeedSigner related grant. This would be news to me because I had the understanding that applications related to SeedSigner were being considered but were deactivated when it became known that Keith had received funding from the HRF.

While a required threshold of "yes" votes for a successful grant is of course entirely reasonable, "no" votes (especially emphatic ones from persons of influence) can cut quite effectively in the opposite direction. nvk's repeated, persistent, very public criticisms of our project communicate something like personally motivated animus rather than any sort of good-faith conscientious objection. Even were he to openly abstain from a formal vote on SeedSigner related grants (which would be in line with opensats' publicly established policies) other board members are likely to be influenced by his numerous public statements. It's honestly troubling that someone running a company that embraces "source available" as an attempt to rebrand what open source means, and who has referred to good/faith FOSS proponents as "commies", should be in a position to decide who does, or who does not, receive open source grant funding.

Some very legitimate questions are being raised about the parties providing funding, their motivations, the entities receiving funding (and those who aren't), the specific tech they're working on, and those who are directly (and indirectly) involved in the funding decision making process. I don't think these questions are being asked because of prototypical bitcoiner contrarian suspicion, but rather are the result of an evolving pattern of observable events; some might call what they are seeing as potential "aligned malincentives". The opensats funding dynamics and scale may also be arriving at a point where larger structural dynamics are coming into play and a "just trust me" approach to public relations and organizational ethics becomes increasingly less and less viable.

So where from here? I don't have a good answer and none of these are my decisions to make. Hopefully opensats just has a short-term public perception challenge that can be resolved with better communication and more transparency. But bitcoiners are a skeptical bunch and these questions aren't going away if they aren't addressed.

Lastly -- I believe that you personally have a good heart and I'm rooting for your success.

(NB - I am speaking here under the exorbitant privilege of operating this account as SeedSigner "the man"; my comments may not reflect the opinions of all, or even of any, of our contributors.)

Great summary by Elizabeth Goiten on #FISA section 702:
—
I’m sad—and frankly baffled—to report that the House voted today to reward the government’s widespread abuses of Section 702 by massively expanding the government’s powers to conduct warrantless surveillance. 1/14

The amendment to require the gov’t to obtain a warrant to search Section 702 data for Americans’ communications failed by an achingly close vote of 212-212, following some truly shameless misrepresentations about the amendment from @MikeTurnerOH, the White House, & others. 2/14

Opponents branded the notion that the government should need a warrant to read Americans’ communications—the core of the Fourth Amendment and the guiding principle for searching Americans’ private correspondence for more than 200 years—as “extreme.” 3/14

Members whom I previously considered to be civil liberties champions (they know who they are) inexplicably abandoned the principles they have espoused in the past and voted to leave Americans vulnerable to continuing surveillance abuses. 4/14

Check out this list of how members voted. If your representative voted the wrong way, don’t be quiet about it. Look up their office phone number (it’s easy), give them a call, and let them know how you feel about their disregard of your rights. 5/14

Roll Call 114 Roll Call 114, Bill Number: H. R. 7888, 118th Congress, 2nd Session
VOTE QUESTION: On Agreeing to the Amendment, AMENDMENT AUTHOR: Biggs of Arizona Amendment No. 1, VOTE TYPE: Recorded Vote, STATUS: Failed

https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/2024114

That’s bad enough. But the House also voted for the amendment many of us have been calling “Patriot Act 2.0.” This will force ordinary American businesses that provide wifi to their customers to give the NSA access to their wifi equipment to conduct 702 surveillance. 6/14

I’m not kidding. The bill actually does that. If you have any doubts, read this post by a FISA Court amicus, who took the unusual step of going public to voice his concerns. Too bad members of the House didn’t listen. 7/14

FISA 702 Reauthorization Amendments: The Second Time is Not the Charm
In December 2023, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPCSI) unsuccessfully tried to expand the government’s authority under FISA 702 by permitting it to compel a broader swath of U.…
https://www.zwillgen.com/law-enforcement/fisa-702-reauthorization-amendments-second-time-not-charm/

Next time you pull out your phone and start sending messages in a laundromat… or a barber shop… or in the office building where you work… just know that the NSA might very well have access to those communications. 8/14

And that’s not all. The House also passed an amendment authorizing completely suspcionless searches for the communications of non-U.S. persons seeking permission to travel to the U.S., even if the multiple vetting mechanisms already in place reveal no cause for concern. 9/14

In addition to people seeking to work, study, or travel in the U.S., this could affect large numbers of visa holders who are longtime U.S. residents but still need permission to re-enter the U.S. when returning from travel overseas. 10/14

The only purpose this provision serves is to signal to people overseas who are seeking permission to enter this country, as well as people who are here on visas the United States has issued, that they are not welcome. (Oh... and to spy on them.) 11/14

There are more bad things in this bill—a needless expansion of the definition of “foreign intelligence,” provisions that weaken the role of amici in FISA Court proceedings, special treatment for members of Congress—but it would take too many tweets to cover them all. 12/14

The Senate should not pass this bill. The government already obtained approval from the FISA Court to conduct Section 702 surveillance until April 25. According to the administration, that approval will stay in place even if Section 702 lapses. 13/14

That means there is NO RUSH. It’s critical that Congress get this right. The House got it massively, egregiously wrong. It must be fixed in the Senate, however long it takes. Please call your senators and urge them not to pass this disgraceful bill. 14/14

THIS IS NOT CONTROVERSIAL.

IF PEOPLE STOPPED SIMPING AND ASKED SAYLOR HIS OPINION HE WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO NOT SUPPORT OPEN SOURCE DEVS.

HE HAS ACTIVELY KILLED DEALS TO SUPPORT DEVS. HE IS PROUD OF IT. HE IS WRONG AND EVERYONE IS TO AFRAID TO SAY SHIT.


He’s eventually going to mutate into the new Roger Ver


Listening to nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx and nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy , and the argument for supporting Open Sats and bitcoin developers is too strong to ignore supporting the maintenance of the network that backs my #bitcoin . Why doesn’t @saylor and the “bitcoin development company” $mstr appreciate this ?

Now there are ETFs, I think there is an argument for share holder activitism, even with the strong argument for mstr over an etf. Thoughts nostr:npub1k7vkcxp7qdkly7qzj3dcpw7u3v9lt9cmvcs6s6ln26wrxggh7p7su3c04l ?


Wait till he hears about inflation


GM!


Gotta suspect the new Teams is in the same boat


Hilarious how many people thought (and still think) this guy was on our team


In #Bitcoin, features are bugs


Most Nostr users post to relays on Cloudflare and Hetzner

They don’t realize that they’re easily censored, and it’s not decentralized.

I’m an optimist.  I’m putting in the effort.  If you want to stay an obedient Big Tech slave, you chose to do so.  Don’t you dare spit that pessimism at me.

Change is possible, it comes from you.  Share this, they gotta learn also.


No you’re great

April Fools jokes are cringe, bro

Source code viewable is not the same as FOSS.

Question the intentions of anyone trying to convince you otherwise

Was Ray always like this or is he still butthurt about paxful? Some of his takes used to be solid but maybe he was always a shitcoiner deep down


GM 🤙


Shitcoins will always exist. #Bitcoin is simply too valuable to not have perpetual imitators

GM. Down with Twitter


Are you building technology for your users, or are you trying to find users for the technology you're building?

Contact your original 401k provider. I bet they weren’t able to transfer the 50k in kind, so they need your authorization to liquidate the assets. Then they can transfer the 50k in cash over to Fidelity


My brain just melted a bit 🤙


The Web is taken.

They control your data: Servers can change anything you send at any time: E-mails, medical records, private family pictures, social media posts, orders etc. You won't even notice it. Not only they can change, but you can also create new content as if they were made by you. Your history is written by them.

Servers do too much: They convinced us we don't have enough processing power and moved all the logic from our applications into servers. Even though a phone has an equivalent processing power than a single server today, we believe we must use complicated server architectures to achieve anything in the web. Phones are the cloud.

Everything is a rental: You don't own your domain name. It's a rental. Your server is a rental. Your digital certificate is a rental. You don't own anything. Your digital identity is a rental.

Data Silos force you to stay: Moving is too hard. They profit on making things just difficult enough to keep your around. After all, it's just 9.99 a month.

Enter the Verifiable Web

Own your keys, own your content. No one can write for you. No one can change what you write.

Sign everything you send. Every little like, every little key press. If it wasn't signed, it didn't happen.

Verify everything you receive. Trust the signer, not the servers in between.

You decide how data gets to you and where it stays. Your digital history is assembled by you.
