My guest today on nostr:nprofile1qqsdcz7puq6jv9ahh58h26zxl5gwl7xks548ck48uyfmsx0kzlfl3rcfrx0pj is nostr:nprofile1qqst0mtgkp3du662ztj3l4fgts0purksu5fgek5n4vgmg9gt2hkn9lqv6g2cl Hillebrand, praxeologist, cypherpunk, and open-source advocate building freedom tech for economic and technological sovereignty. From Austrian economics to Bitcoin privacy, Max shares how CoinJoins, Wasabi, Taproot, and Nostr equip us with the tools to resist surveillance, inflation, and war.
We discussed:
β Why privacy is a frontline defense against coercion
β CoinJoins, Wasabi Wallet & Bitcoin anonymity
β Inflation, war, and the broken incentives of fiat money
β Nostr as censorship-resistant free speech

I see tooooo many issues with Bitcoin. It was a good start but Monero is the next needed step. We can't opt out with a transparent blockchain. Coinjoins introduce more issues and you pop out of the masses. They already cancel or stop your transactions and mark taint your UTXOs. This shows that Bitcoin can't be the way we need.
Valid points. Bitcoin is THE most secure and decentralized money network though. These are most important characteristics that can hardly be replicated again. Therefore, it's important privacy is built with and on Bitcoin. Have a look at ZK-proofs and the possibilities for programming Bitcoin (BitcoinOS, Sovryn). Monero may just run on Bitcoin eventually?
