Never Forget 2019 - Encryption

A thought experiment. Imagine if: Within the next 89 days, China, Europe, and Japan agree to go zero/zero on tariffs and remove all trade barriers. Then Europe and Japan join China in raising tariffs on the United States to 145%. Then China, Europe, and Japan as a united front negotiate with the U.S. to remove tariffs and trade barriers, and put in place strong structural protections for intellectual property and global supply chain stability.

Trump has signed a bill nullifying the IRS’s expanded crypto broker rule, meaning no mandatory KYC for non-custodial services. It’s a big win for privacy🔥

The Simpsons have never been 😳

Ironically, US policy meant to punish China may end up ceding Bitcoin hashrate dominance back to jurisdictions with fewer restrictions. Decentralization as unintended consequence.

DOJ Drops the Hammer on Crypto Crackdown The Trump administration ends the DOJ’s role in regulating digital assets, calling past efforts reckless and poorly executed. No more targeting of exchanges, mixers, tumblers, or wallets for user actions or accidental violations…only real crimes like terrorism and trafficking remain in focus. https://blob.satellite.earth/14f70804a0546cbd6a3e2d972175aa6c68dcbd3712e9158dd8e463aa73a4a61c

Coinbase Is Building a Surveillance Bridge to Bitcoin⚠️⚠️⚠️ Coinbase now demands users “verify” their own wallets before sending Bitcoin. The intent is clear: attach legal identity to on-chain addresses. Once done, every movement of funds becomes traceable, indexed, and stored forever. This has nothing to do with protecting users. It’s about feeding data to regulators and enforcing KYC at the edge of the network. The irony is sharp: Bitcoin was created to remove the need for trusted intermediaries. Coinbase is rebuilding them complete with ID checks and transaction logging. The blockchain doesn’t forget. Once an address is linked to an identity, analysis tools can map behavior, associations, and history. Every coin becomes suspect. Every transaction, a dossier. Cypherpunks didn’t write code so exchanges could turn Bitcoin into a compliance layer for the banking system. Bitcoin is peer-to-peer. It doesn’t ask for your ID. It doesn’t care where you live or what your name is. If you value freedom, stop using tools that betray it. Run your own node. Hold your own keys. Use coin control. Exit the honeypots. Bitcoin doesn’t surveil people. Corporations do.

If—by Rudyard Kipling If you can keep your head when all about you     Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,     But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,     Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,     And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;     If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster     And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken     Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,     And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools: If you can make one heap of all your winnings     And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings     And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew     To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you     Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’ If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,     Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,     If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute     With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,     And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
