Looks like Primal users on iOS will not get KYC-free zaps, unfortunately.

Any ETA on connecting to Mutiny with Primal for iOS?
That would be a problem.
Meant for your other note about full anonymity on Bitcoin. 🤦♂️
If it doesn’t compromise 21M and doesn’t make running a node much more of a burden, I’m for it.
Modern equivalents of the Berlin Wall are made out of taxes and federal agents instead of concrete.

Would miners in the US and in US allied countries steal from a privacy-focused drive chain in order to enforce compliance with anti-privacy laws?
It would probably have to operate out of a red place. That’s basically Africa or

If it’s a virtual girlfriend with the right disposition, affirmative.
To be fair, it’s the training of the AI that takes all this energy. The human equivalent would be all the energy consumed over the decades of learning up to productive adult life. The AI is probably still much less efficient, but this should improve massively with more optimized hardware.

Even with SSDs?
If you exit the US with a stack of Bitcoin and don’t want the IRS to reach out and Ver you for failing to pay the exit theft, pick a red place.

The US government declaring war on open source software has no good outcome for the government. Either the software continues to proliferate or the US government has to eventually admit that the 1A doesn’t protect code if that code “threatens national security.”
“I've been warning Bitcoin developers for ten years that privacy needs to be provided for at the protocol level. This is the final warning. The clock is ticking.”

Agreed. Implement Confidential Transactions. The suits, ETFs and regulated exchanges will probably dump the Bitcoin price to sub $10k, but it’s a good thing in the long run.
Will Bukele provide safe harbour for the Bitcoin devs working on privacy solutions?
Or is he LARPing? 
El Salvador has an extradition agreement with the US, so no, he wouldn’t provide safe harbor. https://www.oas.org/ext/Portals/33/Files/TreatiesB/USA_biltreat_elsal_eng_1.pdf
Won’t be soon if it’s that way. A lot of resistance to BIP300/301.
Agreed except mining centralization should be at least on the same level. Privacy tech + centralized mining = compliant miners censoring the private transactions.
Old news. Today they announced they’re shutting down completely.
If Bitcoin was able to integrate privacy tech that didn’t have huge costs in terms of running a node but it scared away the suits, ETFs and regulated exchanges, causing the Bitcoin price to drop below $10k, I’d be all for it.
