It is a very legitimate concern. It's fixable, but I'm sure these mining pools don't want to give up their revenue.
Shogun sessions is always good. I dont like DnB mc's that much but this one is tolerable during the set.

Have you ever read Power of the Powerless? Pretty interesting perspective from that period.
This is why I'm tired of the obsessive focus on fiat price, manipulation, ETFs etc, which is all noise, just like politics, because there are much more important and urgent things to focus on and work on, maybe when most of Bitcoin related websites become unreachable, we'll finally get some focus.
So until people wake up and finally implement domain names on CounterParty XCP, if you need to access samouraiwallet.com, you still can, if you un-hijack the DNS by adding this to your hosts file :
82.221.139.204 samouraiwallet.com

PS. Not sure how long this will work, but it does for now.
Too bad all the downloads were on the gitlab so unblocking the site really doesn't do much.
And they just started to launch their decentralized coordinator stuff. 🫤
I guess we'll see.
So after my initial gut reaction of holy shit, fuck the government. The whole samurai thing brings to mind a good point.
Unless you are self-hosting Dojo You were still pretty much reliant on samurai servers still being up.
If this isn't a good argument for why you should be hosting as many things for yourself as possible, I really don't know what else is.
Also, while I'm at it, as much as I liked what Samurai was trying to do for privacy, you could have avoided the need to use Whirlpool or anything of the like if you just avoided KYC to begin with. If anything else, this is an even greater argument to avoid KYC so you don't really have to break some sort of identity link between yourself and your coins as shit starts to hit the fan.
Wasabi doesn't do shit for privacy. The only reason they're not getting shut down right now is because they're in compliance with the fucking government.
"In coordination with law enforcement authorities in Iceland, Samourai’s web servers and domain (https://samourai.io/) were seized."
Shouldn't be up anymore.
Yeah, I realized that the GitHub was the wrong URL to go for. I tried Internet Archive but didn't have any luck with that.
I was going to use their BIP-340 lib, was just looking at the code last night. Now their repo seems to be taken down too.
Fuck i was gonna try and grab their repos.
Probably I wasn't doing any mixing at the moment, so I'm unsure exactly.
