Asked ChatGPT/DALL-E 3 to produce crypto-anarchism related pictures. Can anyone tell why the phoenix appears in the pictures? Also the 8 point logo is quite interesting but I think that is pretty close to the symbol of crypto-anarchism.

Why do so many Bitcoiners turn christians? Do people see Bitcoin as a god-like entity and become superstitious? To me religions seem collectivist and turn authoritarian especially when given power. Isn't this just socialism/central banking in a different form?

Interested in doing my CS master's thesis about Nostr/Bitcoin. Any ideas from the community? I've been thinking about doing an MVP of an E2EE chat app on Nostr since incoming NIP44 makes chatting more secure. Thoughts anyone?

Under the guise of child protection, the EU Commission's regulatory proposal tries to regulate usage of end-to-end encryption. This of course would be an infringement of the right to privacy.

The European Union's legal service states that this "would imply that the providers would have to consider (i) abandoning effective end-to-end encryption or (ii) introducing some form of “back-door” to access encrypted content or (iii) accessing the content on the device of the user before it is encrypted (so-called “client-side scanning”)."

Definitely feel like reduction of privacy is a common theme amongst different proposals coming out of different bodies of the EU. Maybe I should start wearing a tin foil hat.

I did two things for the first time today:

- Used Nostr

- Contributed to an OS project. Open an issue regarding weird behaviour when writing messages and posts when using Primal web :)
