Crypto-Anarchy 101: (as Pictures)
Get one easy to understand Picture for each protocol:

Signal
Signal is on the CIA contractor Amazon, and tries to use “sealed sender” to hide the metadata. However it’s flawed.

~~
XMPP
XMPP is well-trusted, but the OMEMO encryption dies with the domain it’s linked to. This means XMPP is nothing more than end-to-end encrypted email (with rotating keys).

~~
SimpleX
SimpleX splits up messages into a give and take. It’s similar to a double-federated model.

SimpleX users can change the relays mid-conversation, but new incoming messages are tied to government domains that can be censored.
~~
Session
Session transcends physical locations through unique DNS, onion-routing, and data stored in a BitTorrent database.

We use Session for an uncensored email list: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/uncensored/index.html
~~
Arweave
Arweave is to websites, what Session is to messages. Both have nodes being paid in a crypto to host a BitTorrent database. The main difference is Arweave stores the data DIRECTLY ON the blockchain.. and potentially forever.

~~
Nostr
Nostr has no blockchain. Users cryptographically sign messages, and then directly post and receive from relays.

~~
Bastyon
Bastyon is the “Russian Nostr” because it’s good at penetrating Firewalls. Unlike Nostr, Bastyon has a blockchain, and home client computers can directly and easily act as nodes (which makes it tough for governments to block).

~~
Bitcoin Lightning
Lightning Channels are like an Abacus, keeping track of who owes who on the Layer 1. It does multiple hops for privacy, similar to Tor.

~~
Monero
Monero hides the data by having fake “decoy” signers. Then having the reciever download and scan all the transactions for a match.

The NSA Taps the Ocean Cables


Simplified Privacy
Our VPN allows for split traffic with fake decoy outputs, (like the “Monero of VPNs”). So your home ISP and the ocean cables see different packet sizes.

Proof of Concept Beta
The VPN currently supports split-traffic, but the cover traffic is manual. For example, opening a 2nd profile with a 12-hour music list, which is very easy with a bookmark homepage. One advantage of manual, is the server doesn’t know if it’s cover traffic or not. But we will be automating the cover traffic in future beta rounds.

LFG
And the United States is actively talking about expanding its territory and distancing itself from Europe. 🇺🇸
I care about the price 25 years from now. I’m buying.
Beautiful
The simplest things tend to be the hardest.
A lot of people seem to have trouble comprehending that you can be highly critical of the government AND appreciate the historical significance of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Executive Order…
“OH SO YOU WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO HOLD BITCOIN??”
It’s not about *want* — it’s just reality.
SBR creation was the inevitable result of Bitcoin’s success. If Bitcoin was NOT winning, there would be no nation-state adoption.
Since Bitcoin IS winning, nation-state bitcoin adoption is inevitable.
I know, winning feels weird. You better get used to it.
You were right about Bitcoin, and all your friends, the media, and Elizabeth Warren were wrong. The most powerful nation on the planet just confirmed what you’ve been ranting about for years.
Bitcoin is money for enemies. Deal with it.
Every individual, company, and country will naturally try to accumulate as many possible units as they can of the only verifiably finite asset on the planet.
“BUT I DONT WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO OWN BITCOIN!!”
Too bad. Bitcoin doesn’t care.
“BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SEPARATION OF MONEY AND STATE?!”
Bitcoin *already* separated money and state; it separated the CREATION of money from state.
“WE SHOULD STOP THE GOVERNMENT FROM HOLDING BITCOIN!”
It’s impossible to stop the state, or anyone, from holding Bitcoin, because Bitcoin doesn’t care who you are and can’t discriminate. The same rules apply to everyone.
That’s kind of the whole point.

People always default to the best money. Not instantly—but eventually.
19-year-old guy with $25,000 asks Tristan Tate whether he should buy the BMW he has always wanted or invest it all in Bitcoin.
Tristan’s response: “You can’t get your d*ck sucked in the back seat of a Bitcoin.”
Lesson in there. https://video.nostr.build/4682555c5604f0f021eaf376a986defd8abedfa8c6d7a3893b5df14a7a157486.mp4
Valid.
Where in the world is this?
