This can be a dream or a nightmare
- A dream because it could improve the quality of life of many people around the world.
- A nightmare because it can be a **HUGE** tool for social control. If we are already going downhill with smartphone data collection and digital passports, CBDCs and so on, imagine it with brain implants.

The issue is not the technology in itself, it's our set of values as civilization. Imagine the cognitive quantum leap if we could augment our cerebral cortex with the development of AI!
Keyboards are like an elderly postman sending a message between two Usain Bolts (our Brains and Computers), all we need is to eliminate the postman and let the two communicate directly. The issue are the social implications of it, but once China implements it in large scale, the West will be forced to do it too.

That's the ideal scenario for sure, but there is the cold reality too.
The same way citizens are hostages of states, small landlock and buffer state countries are subject to foreign political and sometimes violence of regional powers.
Concerning the values of freedom, this is an unmistakable Western value. What these dumb people think is that being anti-west is equal to be anti-woke. To the contrary, being aligned with Western values is essentially being anti-woke, anticommunist, anti-nazist or any other form of oppression against the ultimate minority which is the individual.
So what enemies of the Western values does is to fund and promote stupid ideias within western countries (Nazism, communism, wokeism and radical Islamic groups). A big example of all of this is the famous and classic interview of Yuri Bezmenov in the 80's.
So, the only anchor we must have is our western values, everything alien to it is by definition our opposition.

2024-10-29 07:57:11

That's so interesting, I thought I was the only one noticing it.
We have so much Russian disinformation percolating within libertarian/bitcoiner groups. I am not sure whether there are people just replicating it because they are dumb and "everything against the West is the right thing", or there is a carefull infiltration plan targeting specific libertarian/bitcoiner groups.

Some of us might be thinking why we are living in such irrational times. Well, my thought about it is pretty extensive and I am using this note as a placeholder for a future article or essay about it. But Emilio Gentile summarized it perfect in this passage from his book **Politics as Religion**:
https://image.nostr.build/71af10c79bda83032060807265374992fc83f87a197cfd3aa89b91d33cdce3ce.jpg
If you are slightly smart, you will notice all the elements of a religious symbology in this small example:
https://video.nostr.build/d218d8dea7b6c3802a927e1a2ef7ebcc3370651903e1fb694e7a88cd0b9bde62.mp4
For some political religion the Jew is the devil, for others is the Capitalist/Bourgeois for other is the Straight, White Christian and so on.
That's why this battle is not won purely in logic terms, we must produce literature, movies, cartoons, music... since art is the strongest tool of collective imagination, and also one of the reasons why socialist/woke religion took over western society.

Além disso o atacante precisa copiar aquele pacote de dados e posteriormente ler o texto. Porém tem uma questão ai haha o pacote transmitido está criptografado!
Então digamos que seria MUITO mais difícil o atacante fazer um ataque de middle man numa comunicação LoRa que um ataque em um sistema de comunicação usando a internet.

We are in a battle between making tools user friendly and keep projects censorship resistance. If we make things easy like having a company developing an app and depending on Google/Apple stores to deliver to end users we loose in censorship resistance. But if we are protocol based and make clients available through apk in an onion/eepsites with PGP signature to guarantee integrity, we loose in user adoption.
https://image.nostr.build/639545ebd2a73784cf699277c7b89b9054341bab940031e44312debcd580bd54.jpg
This topic is extremely important because we have countless cases of governments persecuting open source devs (Samourai Wallet) and demanding backdoors in cryptography and other privacy/security based solutions. There is also the case of backdoors on hardware, two recent cases are the Mossad attack on the Hezbollah terrorist group with pagers and the FBI phone company.
https://image.nostr.build/20478806ef7ec21ca9b3a75948212a2d981debb214364b7b953cff20239ed541.jpg
There is even a book about the second case:

I think the war on privacy will naturally select people with a little bit more technical **comprehension** (not necessarily knowledge) from people that don't put the effort to learn it. I say that because if people understand the basics of how cryptography and protocols works, they can already judge good practices and learn to use some tools like XMPP and PGP clients (you don't need to be a developer to use it, just go a little bit beyond the basics).
If you want to understand why this is necessary, take a look at this DEF CON talk:

Despite the woke bullshit, the first presentation of the Tor Project live event was pretty interesting.
One thing that came to my mind is that we need to focus more as #Bitcoin and #Nostr community in darkweb based solutions. If we focus in a darkweb ecosystem (closed network without exit points to the clear net) on top of I2P/Tor we are less vulnerable to governmental legal persecutions, since running a Tor exit node can be a legal headache:

Learn how to store food for long periods (and have something for around 1y of supply) and teach your family and friends some prepper tricks like 1 day survival bag and things like that. There are really interesting (and free) materials here: https://trueprepper.com/survival-pdfs-downloads/#survival-kit-checklists
For those who are more into tech, learn the basics of Ham Radio (try to get a license if it's possible) and Meshtastic. There are pretty cool contents being made and promoted by @nprofile…5ddh.
No, I am not saying the world will end next week haha I think that this preparation is the same reason why we have #Bitcoin and use #Nostr, we want to be prepared and not depending on states/big-techs. Plus, you are just preparing yourself for extreme situations like natural disasters (such as what we saw in Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil and Florida now) and some global supply chain disruption in case of a massive attack against Iran's oil fields or a conflict in Taiwan/South China Sea.
Being ready is never a bad idea. Take care #nostriches and don't feed fear or desperation in your mind while learning/building it, life is beautiful and there will always be nice places on this planet to be, you are just taking care of you and your loved ones.

Monarchy is the natural emergency of social structures. However, the new element of the game is absolute freedom money, the first time in history where we have money no one can control individually.
What will be pretty interesting is the natural emergency of monarchies coupled with absolute freedom money. Perhaps we might finally have the incentives for the ancient greek ideal of rulers, since people will be free to opt out anytime. So the only way to guarantee social authority will be only by display high moral standard to enforce justice.

Meshtastic is the new girl in the class https://meshtastic.org/.
We already orangepilled our friends and family, we are now purplepilling them, but there is a new frontier, which is not depending fully on the internet to be on Nostr and do Bitcoin transactions.
This is the nightmare of tyrannical governments, since it will support both Bitcoin/Ecash and Nostr. It's also pretty hard for countries to wage an electronic warfare against their own population without fucking up their own infrastructure.

Reason #482726 why you #nostrich must reduce as much as possible your digital footprint (and create fake ones) in order to protect yourself and your #bitcoin and/or #ecash. Social engineering will be WAY easier in the near future, take a look:

Aconselho a retirar o microfone embutido e usar um phone de ouvido como microfone quando for necessário falar. Porém caso um atacante com muitos recursos tipo o estado queira ouvir você, dependendo da sensibilidade do acelerômetro, ele pode gerar vibrações que depois de um filtro de sinais (um Fourier da vida) revelam a o que você disse haha

Para ser sincero, acho que o futuro das comunicações seguras serão microcomputadores tipo RPi Zero W com apps de mensagens rodando em CLI. Mas a barreira para o público normie seria praticamente impossível de transpor ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

🎯 beautifully said!
The most important fight now to guarantee western freedom is to build an alternative to the control system under development by states like Digital IDs, CBDCs, laws anti-cryptography and so on.
#Bitcoin, #Nostr, Linux/BSD and other FLOSS projects (SimpleXChat, XMPP, Tor, I2P, Veilid...) are key technologies in this fight for freedom in the XXI century!

Even though I agree that fiat money can bring future money into the present through debit to finance wars, correlation is not causation.
We are in fact in one of the most peaceful moments in human history, the issue is that modern wars are basically industrial, logistical and energy intensive (and way more deadly because of that). States who succeeded more in this game are the ones who can sustain more money printing for longer time (true since WWI till Vietnam War (which forced US to stop the gold standard in 1971) and today's war like Ukraine).
A Bitcoin Standard would force societies to be efficient and optimize resource allocation, and since modern wars are by essence a sinkhole of resources and energy, it wouldn't be feasible.

Estava pensando aqui que como estamos em uma câmara de eco não só no BTC Twitter, mas também aqui no Nostr por ter uma adoção maior entre bitcoinheiros e pessoas preocupadas com privacidade, nós temos um viés muito grande na hora de enxergar o mundo.
Nós pensamos muito mais na relação conflituosa "indivíduos x estado" do que em outros aspectos do impacto do BTC no mundo real. Querendo ou não grande parte da comunidade são pessoaa bancarizadas, com um certo nível de edução, bilíngues ou até mesmo poliglotas, com um certo nível de conhecimento técnico... enfim, uma porção não muito representativa da humanidade como um todo.
Por isso nós acabamos esquecendo de comunidades de refugiados políticos e econômicos que fugiram ou vivem em países com colapso de suas shitcoins fiduciárias como Venezuela, Argentina, Líbano, Zimbábue... Então acabamos não olhando para essas histórias de sucesso e de impacto positivo do bitcoin **HOJE** no mundo real.
Essas histórias de sucesso afastam essa tendência de pensar somente na nuvem negra do horizonte próximo e nos faz olhar para as tempestades já em curso, e que o Bitcoin trouxe alívio para indivíduos e comunidades dos países citados.
Enfim, só para te relembrar que existem pessoas hoje sobrevivendo graças ao BTC, em próximas tempestades teremos o Nostr e outras tecnologias de segunda camada, quem sabe isso te dê um pouco mais de esperança no futuro.

Ahh deve ser o fato do Guilherme ter uma base de leitores já muito grande no Substack, quando é assim fica difícil migrar todo mundo para outra plataforma. Outro caso semelhante é do Alexandre Costa que tem uma dificuldade grande de levar o pessoal do YouTube para o Odysee.
Mas com o tempo acho que todos criadores de conteúdo da comunidade BTC-BR irão migrar aos poucos para plataformas decentralizadas até por uma questão de necessidade mesmo.

Acho o Matrix uma solução relativamente boa pra normies com fobia de novas tecnologias, é relativamente fácil de fazer o onboarding de novos usuários. Já fui mais promotor do Matrix, mas comecei a ficar menos entusiasmado com o tempo, principalmente com o vazamento de metadados.
Rodar um relay do SimpleX ou um servidor XMPP são ordens de grandeza mais fácil e consome muito menos recurso computacional. Acho que você já fez o batismo de guerra com um sistema pesado e chato de gerir, quando mudar pro SimpleX e/ou XMPP você vai achar tudo muito tranquilo, até chato haha

Perfeito, a barreira de acesso a isso está bem mais baixa mesmo, então a tendência é aumentar o número de grupos fazenda isso.

2024-10-01 09:46:01

Conseguem imaginar que agora mesmo existem varias pessoas trocando notas em relays obscuros e nichados em localidades específicas (talvez até em bairros ou ruas) e/ou línguas específicas? E que você só teria acesso a essa rede se conhecesse alguém desse grupo?
Fico imaginando no futuro relays privados de pubs para um seleto grupo de clientes que após um determinado horario e dia marcado organizam festas fechadas e você só recebe o convite se estiver no relay fechado deles.
Não sei quanto a vocês, mas isso pra mim é um pouco do charme desse resgate dos primórdios da internet ao estilo BBS haha

Eu nunca fui um gamer, deixei de jogar por volta dos 16 anos, o único jogo que ainda acompanho (mas não jogo tanto quanto gostaria) é o xadrez. Mas gosto de assistir algumas gameplays de vez em quando pra relaxar.
Recentemente encontrei um canal chamado DayDream Gaming, onde ele basicamente caminha em mundos abertos de jogos tipo Watch Dogs, Starfield, Cyberpunk 2077, entre outros. A indústria dos jogos é uma das maiores na atualidade e tem um impacto muito grande nas camadas mais vulneráveis intelectualmente que são os adolescentes e jovens adultos. Não é a toa que muitos gamers mais velhos reclamam de lacração nos jogos hoje em dia.
Porém a lacração não é o ponto aqui, eu gostaria de falar mais na sensação gerada dos ambientes construídos no Cyberpunk 2077. Apesar dos bugs, o time de direção de arte fez um trabalho incrível. Na playlist do Cyberpunk 2077 do canal que eu citei, você pode passar horas imerso naquele mundo observando os mínimos detalhes da Night City.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0md4p3yznb-USw4AKXA7oPlERVpfTJgJ
Algo que me chamou atenção é que para que o jogo te desperte uma sensação de distopia tecnológica (típica de mundos cyberpunks) eles focaram na sujeira das ruas, vulgaridade sexual e simplicidade estética nas propagandas, arquitetura hostil (quando se coloca obstáculos contra mendigos em infraestrutura pública), arquitetura brutalista (inclusive inspirado em um prédio famoso de Bratislava). Enfim, vários elementos que te trazem essa sensação de decadência.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=593p7dR3qcs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00zAXvvWZr4
Em contrapartida alguns únicos oásis de organização e beleza estão nas camadas superiores da cidade, logo a decadência fica no nível da rua ou mais baixo e a beleza e ordem em locais privados em níveis mais altos. Outro ponto interessante são propagandas de segurança privada e anúncios do departamento de polícia da Night City avisando que fora da jurisdição da cidade é recomendável usar coletes a prova de balas e que eles não têm nenhuma responsabilidade fora daquele perímetro.
Uma das coisas que me chamou atenção foi a propaganda política da cidade falando algo como "nós acreditamos no direito de portar armas, nós acreditamos na liberdade" (não lembro muito bem da citação direta). Posso estar viajando aqui, mas me parede uma sutil tentativa de vincular esse discurso com a distopia da cidade, enfim, vejam e me digam o que acham.
Meu ponto era chamar a atenção de vocês para as ideias principais dos universos cyberpunks, como o desenvolvimentos tecnológico por si só sem uma base moral (e falo moral no sentido de uma busca individual e coletiva da verdade, justiça, bem...), crescimento do poder corporativo e estatal para o controle social e apelo sexual.
Tudo isso soa familiar porque o universo cyberpunk foi uma extrapolação das coisas ruins já manifestas nos anos 70/80. Escritores de ficção são observadores sociais e muitas vezes acabam prevendo grandes tendências.
O post era só para compartilhar essa minha viagem mental assistindo a playlist no final de semana haha, mas acho importante salientar que se não imaginarmos o nosso futuro desejável, iremos apenas seguir o fluxo natural das megas tendências. Temos como criar agora nossas sementes de futuro com familiares, amigos e rede local.

Ohh this would be great, since I believe internet will be restricted in some countries, people will be either denied access or they will only access with Digital ID with some sort of Social Credit System associated with.
Bluetooth, LoRa, LF and HF Radios will be necessary to keep the fight against attempts of control. Since we just need one single node with access to the regular internet, and BTC transactions and ecash files are very small, this small node can be often the gateway to the world for local mesh networks.
Anyway, I know it sound extreme, but I think it's necessary to keep this in mind.

Haha just because people are buying "rare" sats it's not fungible anymore, omg. The issue with fungibility is only an issue for the fiat world, for an agorist community it doesn't make ANY sense, people don't care about the backtrack of their UTXOs, only the IRS will care about it. The only thing that might happen is an idiot paying 30 BTCs for just 1 "rare" sat.
Concerning second layers we are in the infancy of BTC, it's an ecosystem that will flourish like the internet did in the last 3 decades. If you are so unsatisfied with BTC you can use any other shitcoin that you like, I don't mind haha again, I am not here to convince anyone, you do whatever you like with your own things.

5) Vimeo
I think the near future of the internet will be more decentralized and polarized in different platforms and protocols. Finding content will be much more about P2P/Network recommendations than just a simple search in a big tech platform.
It will be both exciting and (unfortunately) also echo chambered.

As I already spoke with a friend of mine once, "Milei will be radical for normies and normie for radical libertarians".
He is doing what he can within the political game (which impose its own limitations), but still, within the fiat/state perspective he is doing pretty good so far.
For sure a place to go if the Milei mentally is adopted by the masses for the long term.

Because I have a life and I choose with what I will spend my time with haha but here we go.
I think the majority of transactions in the future will be made on second layers, on chain transactions will be to settled the accumulation of smaller transactions on layers above. There are good things and bad things about being transparent on chain.
That's why till this point in time I think agorist communities will function mostly on ecash and will settle months/years of transactions on chain. If people want to pay 30 BTCs for a "rare" satoshi, awesome, pay it haha people are free to choose if they want to spend BTC in whatever shit they want. It's not my business if people want to pay for it or not.
The transparency on chain is "bad" when we want to get back to the fiat world, which was the point of my original post. So if you want to get dollars/euros or whatever state shitcoin from your sats, then you will need to pay attention to the history of your sats.
That's why I said thanks God it's permissionless and people choose to use it or not. If you think it's not perfect then store your work into something else, I am not here to convince people of anything, I already made my own choices.
Cheers

People will pay whatever they want for whatever bullshit in front of them. This doesn't make it not fungible.
