Since the computer revolution, technology has been giving everyone a voice.

Any effort to regulate #bitcoin will be done in the name of AML. They have no other way to control the technology

Yep. I realized that long ago. A lot of that AML stuff is driven by authoritarian regimes exercising extraterritorial power through the likes of the FATF and putting regimes they don’t like on the ‘gray list’. Unfortunately, many good-intending folks don’t realize that they’re part of that game.

All you need to communicate on 0xChat is just an npub

Same with your wallet. It will be an nsec that you only know. That’s what I am trying to build.
