The Agent Smith Effect In the movie, The Matrix, Agent Smith has the ability to enter any body, at any time, and that often happens when the Matrix is threatened by Neo. This senario is a reflection of our real world. For example, you're having a conversation with a friend and everything is fine until you mention something like, "vaccines are poison", "earth is flat", "9/11 was an inside job" Now watch what happens, up pops Agent Smith, to replace the person you were just having a conversation with to attack you because all truths threaten the Matrix. Most people have had the Agent Smith Matrix programming since birth. These programmed people become the guardians of the economic Matrix that keeps them slave's, protectors of the code. The police of mind control and enforcers of the indoctrination which holds together our false concept of reality like super glue. https://blossom.primal.net/48488f222dba43021916df184ac6f9d0c987317654853652b3f85fd264536571.mp4

The CloudFlare outage was a good thing https://gist.github.com/jbreckmckye/32587f2907e473dd06d68b0362fb0048 Cloudflare, the CDN provider, suffered a massive outage today. Some of the world's most popular apps and web services were left inaccessible for serveral hours whilst the Cloudflare team scrambled to fix a whole swathe of the internet. And that might be a good thing. The proximate cause of the outage was pretty mundane: a bad config file triggered a latent bug in one of Cloudflare's services. https://x.com/dok2001/status/1990791419653484646 The file was too large (details still hazy) and this led to a cascading failure across Cloudflare operations. Probably there is some useful post-morteming about canary releases and staged rollouts. But the bigger problem, the ultimate cause, behind today's chaos is the creeping centralisation of the internet and a society that is sleepwalking into assuming the net is always on and always working. It's not just "trivial" stuff like Twitter and League of Legends that were affected, either. A friend of mine remarked caustically about his experience this morning "I couldn't get air for my tyres at two garages because of cloudflare going down. Bloody love the lack of resilience that goes into the design when the machine says "cash only" and there's no cash slot. So flat tires for everyone! Brilliant." We are living in a society where every part of our lives is increasingly mediated through the internet: work, banking, retail, education, entertainment, dating, family, government ID and credit checks. And the internet is increasingly tied up in fewer and fewer points of failure. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/10/a-single-point-of-failure-triggered-the-amazon-outage-affecting-millions/ It's ironic because the internet was actually designed for decentralisation, a system that governments could use to coordinate their response in the event of nuclear war. But due to the economics of the internet, the challenges of things like bots and scrapers, more of more web services are holed up in citadels like AWS or behind content distribution networks like Cloudflare. Outages like today's are a good thing because they're a warning. They can force redundancy and resilience into systems. They can make the pillars of our society - governments, businesses, banks - provide reliable alternatives when things go wrong. (Ideally ones that are completely offline) You can draw a parallel to how COVID-19 shook up global supply chains: the logic up until 2020 was that you wanted your system to be as lean and efficient as possible, even if it meant relying totally on international supplies or keeping as little spare inventory as possible. After 2020 businesses realised they needed to diversify and build slack in the system to tolerate shocks. In the same way that growing one kind of banana, https://www.treehugger.com/extinct-banana-5201723 nearly resulted in bananas going extinct, we're drifing towards a society that can't survive without digital infrastructure; and a digital infrastructure that can't operate without two or three key players. One day there's going to be an outage, a bug, or cyberattack from a hostile state, that demonstrates how fragile that system is. Embrace outages, and build redundancy.

XDA Developers just covered rns-vpn-rs, Beechat's open-source project that brings full VPN functionality to the Reticulum cryptographic mesh. rns-vpn-rs bridges the gap between conventional networking and trustless mesh systems. It assigns static IPs to cryptographic nodes, letting any IP-based app run securely over Reticulum, even without Internet or infrastructure. Underneath, Reticulum provides asynchronous, store and forward routing, up to 128 mesh hops, and end-to-end encryption, forming a self-healing, delay tolerant transport layer. As XDA's Joe Rice-Jones points out, this has major potential for field operations, disaster zones, and decentralised systems that must keep working when everything else fails.

Leaked documents reveal that Amazon and Google, under Israel’s Nimbus cloud contract, agreed to secretly notify Israel whenever they hand over data to foreign governments — even when gag orders prevent disclosure. They use a coded “winking mechanism”: each request triggers a symbolic payment to Israel matching the foreign country’s dialing code (e.g. ₦IS 1,000 for the U.S., ₦IS 3,900 for Italy). If disclosure is legally forbidden, the firms must pay ₦IS 100,000 within 24 hours. The Guardian and +972 Magazine say this arrangement bypasses U.S. and EU laws that forbid third-party notification. Unlike Microsoft— which ended a contract with Israel’s Unit 8200 over surveillance concerns — Amazon and Google agreed not to suspend Israel’s access even if terms are breached. Both companies also reportedly fired employees who opposed their Israel work. https://x.com/clashreport/status/1983851276640157917 https://www.disclose.tv/id/6nz9boi6hq/

"I think in the short term, everything will be offered with great benefits. It was quite interesting what you were talking about...Sam Altman offering his Worldcoin by literally paying people for their biometrics. So your biometrics link you, your physical self. So, your biometrics is biological identifier. So your face, your iris, your fingerprints, whatever. That links the physical you to your digital twin, and your digital twin exists in the virtual world, so whatever happens or whatever rules are applied to your digital twin will have an impact on you as a person. We'll have programmable digital currency, then your digital currency doesn't work outside of your 15-minute city. So...there's not a wall stopping you leaving the city, your physical self. But once you're outside of the city, you can't buy anything or pay for anything. So you are geo-fenced. You're geo-fenced into that locale because you haven't got any means of supporting yourself outside of it. So this is the kind of thing that they're working on. This is the kind of thing that they're testing. They envisage, what ultimately, I suppose, the umbrella term that we could use for all these different things...15 minute city, human settlement, resilient city...is smart city. And that's definitely coming from a global governance level. The commitment is part of what they call the New Urban Agenda." - Iain Davis https://iaindavis.com/the-technocratic-dark-state/ https://blossom.primal.net/b8b755ca38961c55441cb6e35e953c52e0a5162de67b8034d2b03ae38fb132d1.mp4

Elon promotes "X Chat" as private messaging but... Elon Musk assures that even if someone put a gun to his head, he could not access your messages: "Messages are fully encrypted, with no advertising hooks or strange "AWS dependencies," so I can't read your messages even if someone puts a gun to my head. You will also be able to make file transfers and audio/video calls." However, we can find this in the X help center: https://help.x.com/en/using-x/encrypted-direct-messages "Currently, we do not offer protection against man-in-the-middle attacks. As a result, if someone—a malicious employee or X itself as a result of a mandatory legal process—compromised an encrypted conversation, neither the sender nor the recipient would know. However, we are working on mechanisms for a future version that: · will allow devices to verify the authenticity of the content and the origin of a message (through "signature checks"); and · will allow a pair of users to verify the devices that have access to their encrypted conversations (through "security numbers"). When signature checks and security numbers are implemented, man-in-the-middle attacks should be difficult, if not impossible, and both senders and recipients should be alerted in case of an attack."

Some people feel envious when you're happy living your life differently because they made life choices based on what others are doing rather than what's good for them. When they suffer as a result of it, they want you to suffer too so that they don't feel bad about those choices.

About the recent #BTC Crash: What was the cause? Rumors.. Before discussing the current market situation, I would like to share with you the most probable reason for what happened on Friday (without conspiracy theories). The Binance exchange allowed the use of USDe (the ENA stablecoin), wBETH (wrapped ether), and BNSOL as collateral for margin positions. But there was a problem with the exchange. The exchange's system valued these 3 assets based on the price in its own order book, rather than relying on external sources. This means that if someone inside the exchange dumps a critical volume of these assets, their price would instantly drop. The exchange's internal system would automatically consider the collateral assets depreciated and start liquidating clients' positions. The exchange knew about this problem and announced on October 6th that it would switch from its own order book to oracles (a service that takes price data for an asset from all sources and provides an average value - giving an objective price and not accounting for manipulations on individual exchanges). However, the new system was only scheduled to start working on October 14th (8 days remained until the vulnerability was closed). On October 10th, a large whale, who owns coins from the Satoshi Nakamoto era of Bitcoin (since 2011) and had been actively moving them to Ethereum in recent months, opened a SHORT position of over $1,000,000,000 on BTC and ETH on the HyperLiquid exchange (most likely a close insider). Just a few minutes before Trump began making aggressive statements about China and announcing new tariffs... At that moment, someone intentionally dumped ~80M USDe on Binance (the price inside the exchange dropped from $1 to $0.65 - while it remained stable everywhere else). If oracles had been working, everything would have been fine. But the exchange's system, relying on the quote in its order book, decided that the "collateral" had depreciated and began liquidations of around ~$800M - $1B (including market maker positions). Against the backdrop of Trump's statements, the crowd was in a state of panic and started closing their long positions / getting liquidated (selling), opening short positions (selling), dumping spot on emotions (selling). The algorithms of the largest exchanges/managers are oriented towards Binance (the largest and most liquid exchange) and automatically started selling/hedging/reducing liquidity to avoid losses. And instantly, the $80M USDe dump in the order book, combined with the panic from the news, triggered an unprecedented cascade of liquidations of ~$19B according to public data, and more than $80B (according to rumors). Outcomes: 1. The short positions of the insider whale from the Satoshi Nakamoto era made a profit of $192M in a matter of minutes (and he has been converting his bitcoins to ether all year - he believes in the growth prospects of the alt market). 2. The market was completely cleared of leverage, loans (favorable). The capital of overconfident retail investors moved into the hands of insiders. 3. Binance has already stated that the technical problems were on their end and they are fixing the situation (switching to oracles), which means it is very likely that something similar will not happen again (now everyone will be afraid of a repeat). And technology like ChainLink is necessary for the stable functioning of exchanges in the future. The situation is terrible, insidious, but the market is also high-risk. Most likely, this is a one-time, systemic problem and will be fixed soon. The manipulation was "covered" by the news of Trump's speech. CZ is silent (although he usually urges to buy the dip and not panic), this is unsettling. From the beginning of the week, we will get more accurate data on what happened, the guilty parties, the consequences for them, and the victims (it might be volatile).

🔄 REPOSTING FROM REDDIT 🚨 Post: Why centralised KYC exchanges allow ZEC. Clarification on the current state of ZEC Trusted Setup in their production blockchain. I have conducted a small research with DeepSeek and real persons from r/zec involved, and the conclusion is the following: Indeed, ZEC production blockchain has been upgraded to the Halo2 cryptographic system that allows to gradually eliminate and fade out the dependence on the well known and pain famous Trusted Setup ceremony by systematic updates of the Universal Reference String (URS). Halo2 does theoretically allow any blockchain participant to update the URS by some procedure. But DE FACTO, the URS string generated in the Trusted Setup ceremony stays UNMODIFIED on the current production blockchain of ZEC. This fact signifies if just one of the ceremony participants has not wiped out his key, all the ZEC hidden transactions on the production blockchain still can be traced out. Furthermore, in ZEC network, no production blockchain participant can easily update the URS because it does require the whole ZEC network protocol upgrade used in the production blockchain. The decision on protocol upgrade can be made only by ZEC core developers in their Electric Coin Company (ECC). It is like a hard fork, thus, extremely epic operation, that involves into cooperation all the blockchain participants. So, if just one key from Trusted Setup has not been wiped out, all the hidden transactions on the ZEC production blockchain can be traced by 3rd party, namely FBI and other 3-letters agencies belong to government authorities. That’s why ZEC can be easily listed on virtually all KYC centralised exchanges: a dedicated group of people can trace all the hidden transactions because there exists a key that has not been properly wiped out. Note, at the methodological point of view, we have no duty to prove there exists a key that has not been wiped out, it is SUFFICIENT we can’t prove it HAS BEEN wiped out. So, being growing in listings on KYC centralised exchanges, the ZEC price is skyrocketing, what we do exactly observe. 🚨 OP comments: 1. Pegasus malware backed by government, etc etc. 2. If the toxic waste for the production URS exists and is known to an adversary, then the privacy and integrity of the current ZCash production blockchain's Orchard pool are broken: All the today-made hidden transactions can be gradually traced out. ZEC coins can be created from thin air and spent out. That’s exactly why Halo2 was introduced at all: it allows a gradual RECOVERY from the compromised state to the secure state by updating URS value in the new Trusted Setup from URS1 (proven compromised) to URS2 (considered as honest). In a nutshell: if ZEC core devs do share URS1 , URS2, etc with FBI, the total project is a fully devastating SCAM. Halo2 can’t save us in this situation. Unlike in Monero only open source code matters. Monero core devs CAN NOT share something with FBI to explore our transactions! Now you see how devastating is the world: ZEC is skyrocketing and Nobody cares IT IS NOT a privacy coin at all. Because, I repeat, at methodological point of view we have no duty to prove that URS value is not compromised. It is SUFFICIENT we can’t prove it IS NOT compromised (by FBI, etc). ZEC is a fatal and fundamental philosophical SCAM because we always MUST TRUST in ZEC network. Actually, ZEC is an ideal model for traditional KYC financial institutions where a dedicated group of people MUST know all your transaction history. That’s precisely why they meet KYC so easily, appearing on most centralised exchanges and their price is skyrocketing like Bitcoin price. But, while Bitcoin does declare it is NOT private , it is NOT a scam. But ZEC declares it is Private but actually it is NOT, so they simply directly, pedantically lie. So they are SCAM by definition. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1o453e3/why_centralised_kyc_exchanges_allow_zec/
