Interesting, I use protonmail….

Proton has fooled many people into using a custodial wallet.... This will get people's BTC stolen when the Great Taking occurs.

Proton is likely a honeypot. Investigate Andy Yen. He was not at CERN, when Protonmail started.

Same pattern as Signal.

DYOR & Don't trust. Verify!

I was just worried about making a censorship-resistant thing where you would be free to follow anyone you wanted (and this problem wasn't a new insight to anyone at the time even the president of the United States was banned from Twitter, so I wasn't really talking about it). All the other Nostr good features and problems that Nostr solves were envisioned first by other people afterwards.

I want the Epstein list too

Our account on X has just been suspended.

We're moving to Nostr as our a primary source of information during the conference, until further notice.

The way I feel now, fuck X. Never going back there.

This is shaping up to be a hugely successful conference, tickets are basically sold out, we have some two of the largest political parties involved with senior leaders participating, there's huge excitement...

...and two days before the conference, we kicked off from Elon's pet project, for undetermined reasons.

Signal was a mistake.

Signal might be a honeypot.

Moxie Marlinspike initially developed Textsecure + Redphone for encrypted SMS + phone calls. These were widely used during the arab revolutions in spring 2011, especially in Egypt. Moxie sold to Twitter, became their employee and the services were shut down when people relied most on them. (In 2010 Moxie was detained by feds when entering US from abroad).

Moxie actively undermined development of federation on the server side, insisted in making Signal a centralized service. Long time Google Play Services were necessary with the reasoning of less battery consumption ;-)

To many red flags for me, but DYOR.

PS: You might also take a closer look at Meredith Whittaker

PPS: Similar holds for Proton Mail which was never invented at Cern.

This is what I was afraid of with bitcoiners cozing up to the political establishment. While I think this is good for bitcoin, and does excelerate the wreaking of the general political structure and financial economy, I have to ask at what cost?

I know that trump is 10x better than Harris would have ever been, but now we have all these crypto sycophants as part of the political establishment and every fucking memecoin that pumps, confuses norms all the more.

I suppose it’s all just part of the greater game of watching the full scale disaster of the house of cards that is the US financial system come crashing down.
