GM - how’s everybody feeling today?


I doubt an option without censorship is their first choice.


Pretty sure that’s just his old account.  Hasn’t been active in the past year. Thanks for letting me know.

Every day’s a chance to keep up the momentum or get back on track.

Don’t beat yourself up if it’s a struggle.

Energy and motivation are volatile.

Regroup, get some rest, and try again tomorrow.


One day, banks will be begging us for our business.


Gotta admit, Saylor does a pretty good Elizabeth Warren impression.


Just because you’re a paranoid crypto anarchist, don't mean they're not after you! 🤘

Not sure how the word “little” got in there but I don’t hate it 😂


Only a numbskull or a little predatory villain would tell people to insert trust and permission into a permissionless trustless monetary system.

And we all know Saylor isn’t a numbskull.

Stay paranoid, friends. nostr:note1fvllyxserf49mqprkpjm68ls3xsjstnsljveve70z0ffqjkzql6sud3z2g

Just mute twitter.


Unfortunately don’t think I can make it this year. November’s a busy month.


Don’t fall victim to unhelpful inertia.

Break the inertia and positive momentum becomes much easier.

All you need is to make the decision and quickly follow it up with action.

BlackRock has amended their Bitcoin ETF agreement with Coinbase to require Coinbase to allow withdrawals within 12 hours. This amendment helps BlackRock improve liquidity and helps verify that Coinbase actually has used BlackRock funds to purchase bitcoin.

If only there was another easy way to do this... You know, such as publishing a publicly verifiable bitcoin address!

Bungled the espresso shot and may have too much lemon but it sure looks pretty #coffeechiain https://image.nostr.build/07f258b9948f6d11f12d6c8b522400197341e5b9ee92fff945ab1a7257905609.jpg


Fellow (the kettle company) makes an espresso cap for the aeropress that significantly improves the quality of an espresso shot but it’s still not on par with a quality shot pulled from a nice machine.


I don’t have the type of time I used to for listening to podcasts.

So I’ve taken a new approach to deciding what to listen to.

I prioritize listening to people I know personally, podcasts on novel ideas, or classic books on old events/ideas.

And just like that, I’ve stepped out of the Pod Conf sphere of influence nostr:npub1563z6kxmvuy7s8zhzan8m0hzmkavyfzg2aw6h7f0fvcvdms398csaxc9n6


It is to have a nice refreshing energy boost.

I don’t beautifully pull espressos, I aeropress them so this is usually an upgrade.


Another espresso tonic #coffeechain, this one’s with guava and from a cafe.

Cutting out carbs for a while really quiets food cravings but not sure that’s a good idea if you’re training for a race.

Stick to eating for fuel, rather than pleasure. If most of what you eat is nutritious, eating more of it isn’t such a bad thing. With consistency, it only takes a couple weeks to get used to this and curb cravings.

Good evening.

In August, the US government took $307 billion in taxes and spent $687 billion, for a deficit of $380 billion. This works out to be an annualized deficit of $4.56 trillion.

All the pills or none of the pills.


Nice, that’a what I’ve heard. I’ve taken a few weeks off of it but haven’t experienced that. Gotta give it another try.

I love coffee but it’s terribly diuretic and likely flushes a ton of essential nutrients and minerals out of the body.


It ain’t easy, nor have I succeeded but it probably looks something like this:

Smash phone, computer, and tv.
Ditch processed food, sugar, and seed oils.
Sleep soon after sundown and wake around sunrise.
Go outside a ton.
Move a ton to the point of challenging strength, endurance, and flexibility.
Eat a lot of nutrients and stay hydrated with minerals and electrolytes.
Meditate.
Create - write, make art, music, etc.

After a few weeks, introduce consumption of books/printed material - the older, the better.

Be intentional about what you consume.

And when you reintroduce technology, try to use it to create 90% of the time. Consumption through technology is very detrimental.

…for at least two months straight befor


Testing an old idea: NFC-based transient accounts: accounts that log off as soon as the app goes to the background, deleting all traces of the account from the phone.

It looks like this in debugging speeds: https://video.nostr.build/ef4274d150303fd28f5e7b6b02a7b0102176263dfb1b491969a0caab6b61e6ad.mp4

If you are an activist and if your phone is confiscated, they will never find anything on the phone. Not even your public key.

Walk around with Amethyst installed and an NFC tag hidden in your clothing. When you need to use Amethyst, tap the tag, insert your password and login. Lock the screen to delete everything.

The NFC has a NIP-49 password-encrypted nsec. If you need, destroy and dispose the NFC tag.

im looking for a video editor and/or a video animator to collab with me on a wide range of Bitcoin stuff i wanna do.

i believe Bitcoin is the best money in human history and both myself and Strike are here to push its adoption forward not only with technology and products but also education and orange pilling.

so far everything i’ve done content wise has just been me on my personal laptop with QuickTime. part of me feels i could make new or even better content to educate and orange pill the masses with folks that have more skills than i do

if you’re passionate about Bitcoin, have related skills, and want to work with me on this, drop me a note at jack@strike.me

much love!

Taking on debt, maybe paying it back, or maybe not and deciding their credit score system’s a means of control that you don’t want to participate in.

"They want to silence ME to control YOU" is an incredible way to summarize censorship.

Interesting. There’s also something to driving everybody to bottled & filtered water.

Wonder what’s worse: fluoride in water or water stripped of all minerals…


My pleasure. Best of luck with your cheese hunt!


That is a major coincidence. You’re probably onto something there.

When was fluoride pushed into public water systems?


Actually, after checking, the milk and yogurt are raw A2A2 but the cheese I’ve given friends is just raw.

This farm ships it and they have a variety. You’ll need to give an email to log in but there’s no subscription fee.

True. But I wonder if the old ways lose efficacy over time and hence the new ways have a similar impact at their peak to the peak impact of the old ways.


Raw A2A2 dairy products don’t seem to affect lactose intolerant people.

I’ve given raw A2A2 milk and raw A2A2 cheese to friends who can’t have dairy and they’ve been fine.


Sorry but eth never had that jaw line.


…or is AI just the next iteration that keeps the trend persistent as the older forces start to lose their efficacy?


How much more do devices impact this than the modern industrial education system, book censorship, and printed propaganda of the past?


I think you’re right.


Yes, I think digital media is melting brains and killing physical health but I wonder how many people had original thought 75 years ago…

Or what about 200 years ago before the modern industrial education system?

Or what about millenia ago before kings, priests, and the printing press?

How different is digital medias influence today compared to these historical forces?


Most people are unable to think.

If you were to guess, how much of that is a symptom of the modern digital age vs. the way things have always been?

New Report: fiat is the preferred tool for 99.67% of cybercrime, measured in annual losses.

What Gary Gensler and others say: "Bitcoin is the preferred tool for ransomware"

What they don't tell you

1. Ransomware ($20 billion losses p.a) is 0.33% of cybercrime ($6 Trillion of losses p.a)
2. The US Treasuries own Money Laundering reports say fiat is by far the preferred vehicle for the online financial crime

In business, different is often an easier sell than better.

So if you think your differentiator is “better”, focus on describing the differences that enable you to be better.

Actually, that is freedom of speech.

Once the ability to censor exists, it sets the table for abuse.

There is a real lack of understanding in just how fucked up the algos are, and how much power we gain in not being manipulated by them. We could be using the internet to do something extraordinary, and instead it is being used primarily to sell us shit and keep us scared. The whole of humanity is being fed lies and distortions through centralized social media that is designed to keep everyone asleep and unaware of their real power.

Now that there is no longer gatekeepers to what can be said to a global audience we have the power to shape a real unadulterated narrative; also known as the truth. The power of censorship to have molded a false global narrative is one of the pillars of the power structure that keep people divided over petty and impractical differences that can now be shown for what they are: manipulation tactics through the algos to keep everyone disempowered. We now have the ability to reclaim our voices in a way that no one can stomp out. What is to come and the changes that are to be ushered in will surprise all of us in the most remarkable of ways.

Anybody else grow up skating🛹 ?

I feel like the experience uniquely prepares people to jump into bitcoin.

Proof of Work - practicing the same trick over and over again for days, weeks, even months until you get it or perfect it.

Taking Risk - slamming on a big gap or set of stairs is risky but the reward is worth it.

Civil Disobedience - skaters aren’t accepted anywhere. Can’t count how many times I’ve been chased out of a spot by security guards or police, just for skating.

Healthy Disrespect for Authority - ignoring said security guards and trying to land the trick anyway or mocking them as you outrun their fat asses.

The Ability To See What Others Don’t - you see a picnic table, I see something I can put over a set of 4 stairs and grind if there’s no rail or it’s too high.

Appreciation for Elegance - not everybody’s style is smooth but when you see a trick executed perfectly, it’s oh so beautiful.

Distaste For Shitcoiners - don’t tell me roller blading’s equally as difficult, the things are literally stuck to your feet (I say this with love 😉)

Maybe it’s a stretch but I see a lot of parallels.

The US just recommended a 30-year prison sentence for alleged Bitcoin Fog operator Roman Sterlingov.

Sterlingov's case became known as the case to "put cryptocurrency tracing on trial", as much of the evidence presented was collected using Chainalysis' blockchain analysis software Reactor – The prosecution "haven’t pointed to any smoking-gun digital evidence retrieved from Sterlingov’s possessions or devices", as WIRED reported following Sterlingov's arrest.

Chainalysis described Sterlingov's guilty verdict as setting precedent for "Chainalysis blockchain analytics being used by prosecutors as evidence when they take criminals to court", arguing that the verdict "affirms the ways in which our solutions have become the industry standard, made possible by our partners in government who use our tools everyday to fight illicit activity".

The only problem: experts believe that the government's got the wrong guy, and that the jury has convicted a user of Bitcoin Fog as its operator – arguing that Chainalysis' tools are "flawed" and "shouldn't be trusted to convict defendants when they face decades in prison".

2024 is the year of dangerous precedents in which not just your right to privacy is on the line, but the very question of how much science matters in a court of law when it comes to BTC.

Both Biden and Trump are kind of retarded. We have known this for a long time.

During the debate, Biden’s age issues became unmasked. And then during the tragic shooting on Trump, he had the courage and presence of mind to fist bump and come out very strong. And in their emotion, people of course rally behind strength.

But then when we go back to hearing Trump speak for an extended period of time, we are reminded that he is kind of retarded, like where we were before, prior to the emotion of the crisis.

Nothing stops this train. All our heroes are retarded. Stay humble and stack sats.

Good afternoon.

I published a new long-form article on Nostr on my homepage, to help inform people about all the cool things people are building here.

I'm going to go over it a few more times before I promote it on my other socials and email lists in the coming days (Nostr first!), so if anyone has any feedback, I can still potentially incorporate it.

Enjoy.

In bitcoin’s early years, a lot of people debated the theoretical functioning of it with a critical lens, but then in practice it just worked and bootstrapped for the next 15 years and counting. It was simple and elegant enough to work despite being rough around the edges, caught all the right types of mindshare, and grew.

Nostr has a similar pattern so far. Lots of people critique it. And galaxy brains are trying to build more complex alternative digital identity schemes without much shipping. Meanwhile Nostr is out in the field bootstrapping with users and developers and companies.

Bitcoin journalism is fucked.

I started The Rage because I'm tired of investors and advertisers telling me what to do for below minimum wage compensation.

What we need are publications willing to let journalists investigate the crap out of the companies, representatives and people enabling the building of surveillance tech behind the scenes.

What we get are publications selling out to corporations, startups and politicians writing public relations puff pieces to keep their returns on track. The point of journalism is to hold power to account, not to become its bedfellow.

There is no lack of talented, experienced, investigative journalists covering bitcoin. The problem is that they write what the powers that be don't want you to hear – so many are out of a job, dabbling away at the next press release for mainstream media, or doing below-minimum wage contract work to pay the bills.

I'm incredibly overwhelmed by all the positive feedback we've been getting for The Rage. In just 8 weeks we've scooped major publications and drove discussions around AML, Samourai and Tornado Cash together with your help. We've even made enough to cover operations with almost 400$ raised, thanks to all the zappers out there.

But here's the thing. I didn't come here to write a good piece every once in a while leaving stories untold left and right because I can't afford to focus on investigations full time. I came here to fuck up the financial surveillance complex. That's why The Rage now needs your help.

We're trying to raise 0.25BTC so we can contract the best investigative journalists in the Bitcoin space to tell the stories that major publications can't afford to print.

If you value your financial freedom, please consider donating via our Geyser fund. We cannot do this without your help.

Welcome!


The liberating and protective benefits of bitcoin should resonate well with that audience.

I live in a pretty liberal city & went to art school - many of the people I know are pretty resistant and resort to msm talking points when pushing back on even having a conversation.

What have you found to be the biggest challenges to getting progressives to open their mind to considering bitcoin?


In the midst of a debate with a trad-fi normie on a normie platform, it occurred to me:

Pay no mind to the noise. Focus on strengthening the signal and the signal will break through.


Inspired to move my thinking over to this platform. Will then take the edge off for the Twitter audience.

Freedom means nothing if you don't possess the self control to restrict yourself


This is awesome


Marketplace is the only reason I haven’t fully nuked my FB.


Many years ago, there was a Bitcoin exchange called MPEx, run by the late great Mircea Popescu.

The design of this exchange was brilliant and radical on a technical level, an expression of the genius of one of the greatest Bitcoiners; a man who is sorely missed by all true Bitcoiners.

This exchange had many users, one of which was infamous altcoiner Erik Voorhees.

Mircea Popescu was approached by the US government's SEC to reveal details of Erik's use of MPEx, and Mircea instantly lept to the defense of his client, refusing in the most scintillating and scathing terms to aid the SEC in any way, shape or form.

https://archive.is/Qcll3

You can read his responses for yourself

https://tinyurl.com/msduxfn2

eye opening, inspiring and highly instructive.

This, my dear readers, is exactly how all CEOs should approach any attack from the State, or its infiltrating Apratchicks who have snuck on to the staff.

If all CEOs behaved like Mircea Popescu, then many of the problems you as users of Bitcoin experience would vanish in a puff of smoke.

All the users complaining and posting screenshots showing Gemini asking weird questions that make absolutely no sense in reference to how they use "their" Bitcoin, that in this or any other universe are considered insane, and all the other "power over" abuses you've seen would not be happening.

And Bitcoin would have spread further into the world than it has today as a result.

The role of the CEO is not to Virtue Signal by patting the needy on their heads and other showy things that whilst good in a normal world are absolutely bizarre in the real world, where users are under attack and their rights are daily abused and the Bitcoin ecosystem itself is under constant pressure from enemies.

If we had more Mircea Popescu types, the Bitcoin ecosystem would be far better off than it is today; more resilient, more widespread and more useful at any scale, since it would not be mediated by cowards and weaklings.

Mircea Popescu cannot be a model for anyone I'm afraid, and there is no factory that can produce more of them.

Why is that?

The reason why, is that what I'm talking about in Mircea Popescu is a man of character. A man who understands what power is, and how to wield it justly.

Mircea bailed out OpenBSD

https://tinyurl.com/2xfn7j7h

and did many other things in secret that have changed the course of history for the better; that is what everyone should expect, not Virtue Signalling, pandering and being a willing cowering prisoner in a gaol of your own making as a way of life.

It should be obvious to everyone now that when the right man is in charge of something, amazing things can happen that can change the world rapidly.

Elon, for all his many faults, has radically shifted the overton window in the matter of free speech, and caused millions of users to breathe easier by having the threat of their speech cut off removed.

Imagine if this happened in Bitcoin services!

Imagine for a moment, that Bitcoin has no restrictions on how it can be used, and that you can use many services in whatever way you want without any fear that anything can go wrong.

Using Bitcoin like using an iPhone to browse the web at will.

This is unimaginable for anyone inured to the cancerous adversarial culture that has metastasized in "The Bitcoin Community", but for those not infected, the very idea of this makes goosebumps break out all over your skin.

In order for this to come to pass, well designed tools and services that can touch the public are an absolute prerequisite. This is what has been missing for many years for different reasons, but now there is no longer any excuse, and it is a matter of character and will.

You've seen how paradigm shifting services have been launched before from different companies run by fearless mavericks. The world is better off when CEOs are fearless mavericks like Mircea Popescu and Steve Jobs; they are the ones that make the great leaps, and they're sorely needed and will always be needed.

And in case you can't understand this, this is not about starting a very successful company after the groundwork has been done by mavericks; this is about being a groundbreaking maverick.

It's easy to pivot to a keyboardless phone design after Apple have broken the hypnotic Emperor's New Clothes spell of "ALL PHONES NEED KEYBOARDS".

Someone had to do it first.
Someone had to show some guts.
Someone had to reject bad advice.
Someone chose not to run away from imaginary problems.
Someone chose to take the commercial risk.

Bitcoin is going to win. It is a question of when and not if.

We know from the death of the AOL era, that all business models that don't conform to reality are destroyed in the end, and that it doesn't matter how big you are now; you will be destroyed by the market and by entrepreneurs with guts and character.

Bitcoin is no different. The people who are willfully and ignorantly choosing to serve people in ways that are sub optimal, because some pig ignorant Ambulance Chaser told them to, are going to lose in the end.

Losing in this scenario doesn't mean not making money; in 1999, AOL’s market capitalization soared to around $222 billion.

But look at them now. Not only is AOL no longer a standalone entity with its own market capitalization; it is now a mere element in a portfolio managed by Apollo Global Management.

It's dead.

This is the fate of all businesses that are not run by mavericks who embrace risk. Apple is what it is today precisely because Jobs was a risk taker.

If you think Apple is big, just wait till the "Final FinTech Unicorn" emerges that will be built on Bitcoin. Nothing like it has been possible in the past, because Bitcoin did not exist.

In the "Final FinTech Unicorn" future, Bitcoin regulation will be a thing of the past, just as regulation of the web today is a fantasy of EU witches with short haircuts. The web is an unstoppable force for good. Most people know it and nothing can stop it.

The same will be true for Bitcoin, only the changes it will unleash will be far greater than many people can begin to imagine.

"Do you want to be remembered as one of the people who helped make it happen, or not?"

That is the question everyone needs to ask themselves.

I asked ChatGPT to, "List ten of the most revered and beloved tech CEOs of the last 40 years".

It returned...

1. Steve Jobs (Apple Inc.)
2. Tim Cook (Apple Inc.)
3. Elon Musk (Tesla, SpaceX, X)
4. Reed Hastings (Netflix)
5. Jack Ma (Alibaba Group)
6. Shantanu Narayen (Adobe)
7. Marc Benioff (Salesforce)
8. Meg Whitman (HP, eBay)
9. Jensen Huang (NVIDIA)
10. Daniel Zhang (Alibaba Group)

Yikes. That's quite the list isn't it?

And you can't buy your way on to that list by Virtue Signalling. You've got to earn your place on it by doing real things that serve other people, without fear or favor.

Quite the task, isn't it?!


I like the post and I agree with the sentiment. But the iPhone wasn’t the first phone without a keyboard? It was the first widely successful one. So, with that said, a maverick can be someone who follows in someone else’s footsteps to a degree, but it also requires them to mix in some creativity, courage, and dedication. Great call to action for people to rise to the occasion - they’re out there, they may just need to motivation.

Bitcoin is money.

Prioritizing its store of value qualities over everything else is like prioritizing ice over everything else that water does.

Ice is cool and all (pun!?) but without water’s ability to sustain life, ice is useless.

Don’t let them tell you bitcoin is only a SOV.

Just like we wouldn’t let them tell us bitcoin is only currency so the supply cap needs to be eliminated…

Bitcoin is money - a store of value, a medium of exchange, and a unit of account.

The Founding Fathers would be rolling in their graves if they saw that people need a license to transmit money, or that the government thinks it has the right to surveil and censor everyone’s money and transactions.

The default is privacy. To infringe on someone’s privacy should require probable cause and come with checks and balances. Ubiquitous surveillance shouldn’t be the default, since it enables tyranny. https://image.nostr.build/59d050b8cf8f75a3d469e83812a0be6681bcad506e63bc0bf4417cfece14d0b8.jpg


Welcome to nostr!


The indictment against the alleged Samourai Wallet (SW) operators was unsealed today. A few friends have been asking for my opinion on it and my channels are blowing up. I used to serve in law enforcement as a detective that specialized in cybercrime and blockchain analysis. The following information may be useful or interesting to some.

Reading through the Department of Justice’s press release and the indictment itself, here are my initial thoughts:

There are plenty of examples of past investigations resulting in arrests/convictions related to the operation of custodial mixing services, with Bitcoin Fog being the one in recent news. With a service taking custody of funds and moving funds between other people/users, they are likely going to be considered a money service business. And if a money service business doesn’t block Americans from using the service, the US Department of Treasury will require the operators of that service to register with them and follow their compliance regulations. Many foreigners have been arrested in foreign jurisdictions in order to be prosecuted in the US with an American judge and jury for allegedly violating federal American laws (read that sentence twice).

With these sorts of cases, you are typically dealing with the idea that a service didn’t register correctly and follow compliance regulations. And then the other idea is that the operator of the service knew and allowed funds to move through it that would be considered “illicit” or “sanctioned.”

Examples of illicit funds may be proceeds from illegal drug sales or funds stolen from someone. The sanction piece can involve entities, such as particular Bitcoin addresses, individuals, companies, or countries, using the service or receiving from the service. The US federal government maintains a sanction list.

The above summary has been an on-going fight on privacy, censorship, and regulatory overreach for a while. It isn’t new (and Roman Sterlingov should be free). SW’s indictment is different from the situation I summarized above though.

SW was a non-custodial service. This means that users controlled (their private keys to) their funds themselves and the service provider (SW) allowed the coordination between users through its infrastructure, such as the app, the server, the continued development, etc. This makes this case much more interesting and more concerning to me.

Regarding the first count against the men: Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering. The SW indictment alleges that SW was a service that provided “large-scale money laundering and sanctions evasion.” So we are talking about users using illicit funds with the service and sanctioned entities using or receiving from the service. And we are talking about the SW coordinators “conspiring” with the relevant users to do this.

The indictment is constantly referring to SW as an “application” that is conducting or facilitating the mixing through a “centralized coordinator server.” Who controls the application and server? Allegedly the two men named in the indictment.

When it comes to SW’s Whirlpool service: Through their server, their application is selecting the inputs. Their application is communicating information between all users necessary for the mixing to occur. Their application is using the private keys on behalf of the users. Their application is broadcasting the mixing transactions to the Bitcoin network. The picture the indictment is painting is that the application and server are essentially doing the money laundering, as opposed to the users using the service. Similar verbiage and logic are used to describe SW’s Ricochet service too (adding hops to a send you intend to do).

The above summary is the most shocking piece of the indictment, in my opinion. The implications of this reach beyond Bitcoin-related apps and services. Think of the apps and services, just in general, that a user could use to engage in criminal behavior. Now think of arresting the developers/creators for what the user did.

Regarding the second indictment against the men: Conspiracy to Operate an Unlicensed Money Transmitting Business. The indictment says the SW operators were “involved in the transportation and transmission of funds intended to be used to promote and support unlawful activity.” There isn’t any mention or consideration of custody of funds in this. The logic of the indictment: Some users may have used SW’s application and server for “unlawful activity” and therefore, SW was involved in the unlawful activity. Again, this is a scary precedent. Think of the applications and servers out there right now that users may be using for unlawful activity.

There are many mentions apparently from the coordinators themselves that address the knowledge and intent element (important for a criminal trial). The SW operators were obviously passionate about financial privacy and resisting compliance regulations. Their messages (especially with their style of messaging) will be easy to spin/take literally, even if the coordinators were just trying to be edgy with their marketing/brand. The SW coordinators did not help themselves in this regard.

I think the government will focus a lot on the coordinator’s knowledge and intent of the service being used for illegal activity. I believe this is how the government will “limit” the scope of the precedence and how it will try to differentiate the SW service from others.

Regarding the illicit funds/sanctions piece: The blockchain analysis showing funds from Dark Web markets that sell illegal drugs flowing into SW’s Whirlpool will be easy for the prosecution. The same goes with sanctioned entities sending to or receiving from SW’s Whirlpool. It will also be easy to show funds flowing from known hacks, exploits, and/or thefts flowing into SW’s Whirlpool. The government will need to prove the men knew this was happening and that they facilitated it by providing the SW application and server. Their mouths may be their downfall on this one, but I think it is pretty clear that the SW operators’ intent was to provide a neutral financial privacy tool that didn’t control user funds, leaving the responsibility of the use of those funds on the users themselves.

With the logic in this case, I wonder if it will be argued that blockchain analysis companies are also culpable since they surely had their own funds being mixed in SW’s Whirlpool to collect data points. Were their funds facilitating illegal activity? Or were their funds facilitating financial privacy in general? (Maybe facilitating privacy was just the byproduct of having the chance to trace through exclusions.)

Overall, the case leads to some interesting questions.

Is a wallet software and developer a money service business now? How about a full node? These both facilitate the transmission of funds too. The implications of this case are not good for privacy or code. I’m ready to donate to the defense.

Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age. Privacy is not secrecy. A private matter is something one doesn't want the whole world to know, but a secret matter is something one doesn't want anybody to know. Privacy is the power to selectively reveal oneself to the world.

If two parties have some sort of dealings, then each has a memory of their interaction. Each party can speak about their own memory of this; how could anyone prevent it? One could pass laws against it, but the freedom of speech, even more than privacy, is fundamental to an open society; we seek not to restrict any speech at all. If many parties speak together in the same forum, each can speak to all the others and aggregate together knowledge about individuals and other parties. The power of electronic communications has enabled such group speech, and it will not go away merely because we might want it to.

Since we desire privacy, we must ensure that each party to a transaction have knowledge only of that which is directly necessary for that transaction. Since any information can be spoken of, we must ensure that we reveal as little as possible. In most cases personal identity is not salient. When I purchase a magazine at a store and hand cash to the clerk, there is no need to know who I am. When I ask my electronic mail provider to send and receive messages, my provider need not know to whom I am speaking or what I am saying or what others are saying to me; my provider only need know how to get the message there and how much I owe them in fees. When my identity is revealed by the underlying mechanism of the transaction, I have no privacy. I cannot here selectively reveal myself; I must always reveal myself.

Therefore, privacy in an open society requires anonymous transaction systems. Until now, cash has been the primary such system. An anonymous transaction system is not a secret transaction system. An anonymous system empowers individuals to reveal their identity when desired and only when desired; this is the essence of privacy.

Privacy in an open society also requires cryptography. If I say something, I want it heard only by those for whom I intend it. If the content of my speech is available to the world, I have no privacy. To encrypt is to indicate the desire for privacy, and to encrypt with weak cryptography is to indicate not too much desire for privacy. Furthermore, to reveal one's identity with assurance when the default is anonymity requires the cryptographic signature.

We cannot expect governments, corporations, or other large, faceless organizations to grant us privacy out of their beneficence. It is to their advantage to speak of us, and we should expect that they will speak. To try to prevent their speech is to fight against the realities of information. Information does not just want to be free, it longs to be free. Information expands to fill the available storage space. Information is Rumor's younger, stronger cousin; Information is fleeter of foot, has more eyes, knows more, and understands less than Rumor.

We must defend our own privacy if we expect to have any. We must come together and create systems which allow anonymous transactions to take place. People have been defending their own privacy for centuries with whispers, darkness, envelopes, closed doors, secret handshakes, and couriers. The technologies of the past did not allow for strong privacy, but electronic technologies do.

We the Cypherpunks are dedicated to building anonymous systems. We are defending our privacy with cryptography, with anonymous mail forwarding systems, with digital signatures, and with electronic money.

Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and since we can't get privacy unless we all do, we're going to write it. We publish our code so that our fellow Cypherpunks may practice and play with it. Our code is free for all to use, worldwide. We don't much care if you don't approve of the software we write. We know that software can't be destroyed and that a widely dispersed system can't be shut down.

Cypherpunks deplore regulations on cryptography, for encryption is fundamentally a private act. The act of encryption, in fact, removes information from the public realm. Even laws against cryptography reach only so far as a nation's border and the arm of its violence. Cryptography will ineluctably spread over the whole globe, and with it the anonymous transactions systems that it makes possible.

For privacy to be widespread it must be part of a social contract. People must come and together deploy these systems for the common good. Privacy only extends so far as the cooperation of one's fellows in society. We the Cypherpunks seek your questions and your concerns and hope we may engage you so that we do not deceive ourselves. We will not, however, be moved out of our course because some may disagree with our goals.

The Cypherpunks are actively engaged in making the networks safer for privacy. Let us proceed together apace.

Onward.

Biking uphill can but it’s hard to find a long enough hill in most places.

But also, jogging’s the worst. I’ll do some sprints but get too bored too quickly when jogging.


Privacy is normal and good.

There has been an effort among authorities to make “money laundering” and “financial privacy” the same thing. That is, the mere act of moving money privately itself becomes a crime. That’s not okay.

Money laundering is when money that is obtained through crime is concealed by obfuscating it with clean money. The actual crime is the initial non-financial crime (say, mob stuff), and historically money laundering involves manual activity to work with the criminals.

Now that open source tech can make certain transactions private, authorities increasingly equate all private money transfer with money laundering, even if the developer of the open source tech had no direct involvement with criminals. Authorities target them regardless, and sanction the technology itself. Financial privacy becomes synonymous with crime in their minds, and in the minds of the public.

Now you know why Satoshi had to be anon


The founders of Samourai Wallet have been indicted for "conspiracy to commit money laundering." We know why it's "conspiracy to commit" as opposed to just "money laundering."

It's because what they did was provide a privacy tool that some people could use for money laundering.

It is part of the government's ongoing war on privacy, specifically financial privacy. Those in power yearn for every transaction to be tracked, taxed and, if need be, frozen. The action against the Canadian truckers was the template, and CBDCs (programmable, instantly manipulated money) are the tool of control that they ultimately want.

First, they must dismantle the privacy-centric alternatives so there's no viable exit ramp once CBDCs and the like are implemented. That's what we've been witnessing with the attacks on coin tumblers like Tornado Cash and today's attack on Samourai.

They will point to bad people using these tools, just as they pointed out that Hamas raised some funds in various cryptocurrencies, without noting that a vast amount of money laundering happens with government-issued currency.

It's the same kind of bad-faith argument the FBI made in the '90s when they tried to kill end-to-end encryption altogether. "Sometimes terrorists might use it." Ok, and? They also use pressure cookers. The internet as we know it today would not exist if they had succeeded.

They are unlikely to succeed this time either, but unfortunately there will be casualties in the war on privacy, and those casualties will be those who openly thwart their ambitions of total surveillance.

Here’s a cool layer 0 (human interaction) story I wanted to share from the halving party I attended.

So the party was at a local business, a place that sells amazing baked goods and coffee, it was booked as a private event after its normal business hours. It’s in a building resembling a residential home on the corner of the main street that goes through that town. It was a very nice day out so the front door that led out to the sidewalk along the main street had been propped open.

Some random guy walks up to grab a coffee thinking that the business is open as they’re setting up for the event. The organizer of the party (let’s call him John) is there and tells the guy sorry the business isn’t open, we just have a private event. As the random guy (we will call him bob) starts to turn around John says “wait…. Do you like bitcoin?” Bob said he doesn’t know anything about it but it sounds interesting.

Bob ends up hanging out for the entire halving party, he was set up with a LN wallet and a few of us sent him bitcoin AND he bought a cold card from an authorized reseller that had some of their inventory right there at the party.

Imagine being orange pilled by walking up to a HALVING party, witnessing the halving during the party and having amazing, knowledgable people there to set him up with LN wallets, send him bitcoin instantly AND even get him a device for cold storage. Bob went from “normie” life to having the tools to self custody the hardest money on earth in a matter of hours. Bob also happened to be a veteran and is now connected to the nostr:npub1qktts9naunvjdwsktq5xjdhwh539xt4x0mqj4yxq0q9dvm03ljvs6sms0r network.

This is the power of layer 0.

My husband recently observed to me how important conditioning is for people to accept things as normal.

He said that when he first began reading my articles, he was like “Okay but I mean, fiat currency censorship isn’t really *that bad* as you describe”. But then in the years that followed, he was like “oh shit, it actually is. The fact that we have to ask permission to access significant amounts of our own money at banks and say what we will do with it is fucking insane. Why is this normal now?”

In Europe especially but also elsewhere, it’s increasingly common to make cash transactions illegal above a certain threshold value. Above that value, you have to go through centralized, surveilled, corporate/government systems, or you’re doing an illegal transaction.

That seems absolutely insane if introduced out of nowhere, but instead it has been introduced gradually through conditioning and so people are like, “well I don’t use cash anyway so that’s okay I guess, in fact I don’t even know that’s a law now”.

The same is generally true for social media. Filtering communications through centralized pipes is actually a radical position but it’s increasingly the new normal. In fact, the centralization of banking and communications in the hands of the state were two of their ten steps proposed in the Communist Manifesto. https://image.nostr.build/50bd5a957af0e91062c8a68c0848242fdf10e0c7207215b37d5845ff67843152.jpg

The Six Lessons of Mises.

The book is a collection of essays on various economic topics, but the six lessons refer to the following:

The Government Cannot Solve the Economic Problem
Mises argues that central planning is ineffective because governments lack the complete information needed to make sound economic decisions.

Inflation is Monetary
Mises believed that inflation is always caused by an increase in the money supply, not by external factors.

Intervention Distorts Prices
Government intervention in markets, such as price controls, creates distortions that harm consumers and producers.

Business Cycles are Caused by Government Actions
Mises argued that government manipulation of interest rates and credit cycles are the root cause of business booms and busts.

International Trade Benefits All Parties
Free trade allows countries to specialize in what they do best and improves the overall standard of living for everyone.

The Welfare State Undermines Freedom
Mises believed that welfare programs create disincentives to work and distort the economy.
