see this is already a problem - you've sed "in its pure form". there is no other forms of bitcoin, theres only one. The rest of them are not forms of bitcoin but mostly convenience or price exposure solutions.

2024-08-22 09:34:29

- reply

I guess its not, but that doesn't solve anything really. its possible to do it now, but outside of the echo chamber theres only a tiny amount of economic activity happening on bitcoin outside of trading.
The problem is not how to run a black market mint, the problem is that there is little(or none) demand for it. A lot of the things are possible already, others could be solved given enough demand that would actually pay for the solutions or usage.
but none of that negates anything on the playbook i've posted.
Our problems are not technical, they are philosophical and spiritual one. Coercion to our society is like water to the fish - we've never known anything else. And that makes it very hard for people to break the walls in their minds, to see through the bullshit and opt out.

i don't think grey (if we take grey as unofficial but not illegal) market ecash mints exist. In the eyes of the state money service business is either licensed (white) or illegal (black).

2024-08-22 07:22:20

All according to the playbook:
1) use propaganda to spread the "awareness" of how decentralized money is only used by criminals and how it harms kids
2) threaten to ban it
3) keep the companies participating in this alive but gradually impose more and more regulation and compliance on them
4) use propaganda to spread the "awareness" of how many baby seals bitcoin mining is killing
5) "embrace" bitcoin through etfs so "bitcoiners" are happy and distracted
6) more propaganda: we're not banning bitcoin, your bank is selling you "bitcoin" now, we're friends, vote for me.
7) attack privacy technologies that interfere with your surveillance
8) but NgU, orange man good, cypherpunks forgotten
9) crack down on cash payments since its only used by pedophiles anyway
10) crack down on "non-compliant" ways for people to buy bitcoin (only hurts a minority, masses dont care cuz its just some nieche companies and solutions disappearing
---- WE ARE HERE NOW ----
10) more strict laws incoming or already here(MiCA, travel rule, AML etc)
11) NgU, we are changing the world bla bla, bitcoin fixes this, blackrock buys my bags
12) Cash payments disappear, cunts in brussels reading your cope texts to your cryptobros
13) privacy gone, cash long forgotten, what is p2p electronic money
14) can i haz more NgU, i need my orange lambo
15) propaganda: west embraces "bitcoin", "developed" countries have bitcoin balance sheet
16) majority of people use bitcoin as their grandfathers savings account through their bank. most of them never done a transaction outside of their broker. NgU so the world is good, bitcoin will change everything.
17) 90% of transactions follow travel rule and are between kyc'd wallets
18) bitcoin won because you get to tell your parents that you were right to buy the pet rock since you can now afford the 1bedroom apartment since bitcoin crossed $2million
19) the only non-kyc lightning nodes are 3 raspis on tor in someones basement
20) remaining 10% onchain transactions are force closures by LND
21) bitcoin effectively becomes cbdc and nobody notices

Alternatively depending on the wallet you are using it might expand - ie phoenix has splicing that will add more inbound capacity to your channel if needed (for a cost of course).
If the amounts are decent just swap onchain with @npub1psm…8970 and "free" up some inbound

see thats the problem, we havent reached shit. we just lose bits and pieces of it every day.
there are very clear goals to freedom and steps to get there. the problem is that everything we've been told tells us that its crazy and impossible to do it.
entrenched ideas and dull people are what makes the current dystopia of surveillance capitalism and totalitarian tendencies work. Talking about horizons and ideals automatically pushes freedom into an intangible sphere. Freedoms that were eroded or taken away are not intangible. They are very real and impacting us on every corner of our lives.
Horizons are dreamy and discussed over joints or after DMT sessions. Frontiers are dangerous and places where men are separated from boys, where your blade needs to be sharp and your gun chambered.
And make no mistake, we're in the latter category.

None of you seem to get it - no government wants bitcoin to succeed in its purest form - p2p money.
They will let you have price exposure for your votes, but they will never embrace the ethos of freedom that once was part of bitcoin.
Now we celebrate state figures and wall street financial products.

Precisely. Its hard to even discuss these things with people because their baseline assumption of the world is only slightly better than slavery.
The idea of true freedom for people to live their lives without being told what and what not to do is completely foreign to most people nowadays.

i might be missing something but its more of a denial of service scenario with bgp hijack, the ip in LN is not the sole identifier so you can't MITM it like you could with HTTPS if you can get a cert issued (which isnt really an issue if the dns is pointing towards your infrastructure after the hijack).
nodes don't generally care about their ips or the fact that they change that much. Sure updates propagate long through gossip etc, but its minor compared to identity being tied to it like the case of federation and domain name.

far from exhaustive list but some things to look at
- Named data networking https://named-data.net/project/execsummary/ ( @nprofile…k0vn has a nostrovia episode on this)
- things built on DHT like pkarr (https://github.com/Nuhvi/pkarr)
- gnu name system https://lsd.gnunet.org/lsd0001/

2024-06-25 08:13:32

another "permissionless" solution built on top of something that is inherently prone to get rugged - DNS system.
its already bad enough that lightning network is based on public ips (yes, i know you can also run it on tor, thx) which is a huge privacy leak and potential vulnerability.
until we need things that require someone elses permission (ip, dns etc) we'll always be one step behind. We need to change the foundation and pull the control out at its roots.
