🚨 Fun Idea 🚨

Strikes me that TCP/IP is a compromised system in plain sight because IP addresses are all pre-known and centrally allocated by IANA, RIR’s and ISP’s. Everything is premapped and crystallised thereafter, thus traceable and identifiable.

Would it not be much more robust if addresses were generated as keypairs by network nodes and submitted by the nodes to public listing servers?

Bottom up addresses allocation, rather than top down.

1). Every device would generate a public-private keypair when joining the network.

2). Public address listings (relays), each devices public key becomes its address and consolidated lists of addresses are stored and accessed from simple relays, anyone can create an address relay (public or private) and there would likely be some big ones.

3). When A send to B it always encrypts with B’s key and sends to B’s address. No man-in-the-middle attacks.

4). All of IP/TCP remains unchanged except for the IPv4 and IPv6 origin/destination addresses which are simply replaced with locally generated pubkeys (long enough to avoid collisions), rather than centrally allocated IP addresses.

Seems like this would result in an entirely secure and decentralised internet?

Thoughts?

The fact that Bitcoin isn't yet accepted everywheree and for everything really underlines for me how few people have actually used Lightning. Whenever I show somebody how it works, there's always that "wow" moment. But why was it a surprise?

The problem is that normal people still understand BTC from the one half-remembered opinion piece they read in 2017, and are operating under the belief that transactions still take an hour to settle, rather than being instantaneous and irreversible — money transmission without the Paypal Problem. The public mind needs a cache refresh.

Despite all RFK's Israel groveling, the Big Jews hate this guy. They were probably involved in offing his family, and unless he hires Wagner for security, they'll probably off him.

That's why the Jew Mayorkas denies him protection.

Either RFK Jr is controlled, or he is gonna get hit.

No way he randomly runs without protection and says all the stuff he does and gets a crack at the top job with nothing happening.

His campaign is bizarre.

He also posted this graph from ZeroHedge and noted people don’t like ZH’s politics (ie they don’t trust them as a source) - when your government is involved in this kind of blatant fraud in the data you’d think people would be more concerned about that than some outlet’s biases
