Been off all day.
Working on a project.

Bitcoin, cypherpunk ideals, Linux kernels, everyday life, wit.
Lol


Sinceramente, eu fico triste vendo tantos influenciadores recomendando a Spike2Spike para comprar Bitcoin. Acho preocupante.
The Cantillon Effect explains why inflation is never neutral, because new money doesn’t enter the economy evenly but through specific channels, meaning those closest to the source get to spend first before prices adjust, while everyone else pays later at higher prices; and this is not a flaw or an unintended consequence, it is how the system ACTUALLY works, quietly redistributing wealth upward while being sold as a collective necessity.

O ouro funciona como proteção sem fricção institucional. O Bitcoin, ao contrário, expõe conflitos de poder, responsabilidade e controle que o mercado prefere adiar, ou seja, enquanto o custo político de adotá-lo for percebido como maior do que o risco de manter o status quo, essa lateralização faz sentido.

In The Count of Monte Cristo, escape comes not from mercy, but from knowledge, patience, and asymmetric advantage. Edmond Dantès learned that power rarely needs truth, only silence and obedience.
Cryptography is that advantage in the modern world: it replaces trust with verification, permission with mathematics, and blind obedience with private truth.
IN SUMMARY, to question authority today is not only philosophical — it is inevitably technical.

Quantum computing is not a real threat to Bitcoin today. The risk only applies to old addresses with exposed public keys, and only if a large, fault-tolerant quantum computer actually exists, which it doesn’t. Bitcoin can upgrade gradually long before that point. Most of the panic is alarmism and marketing, not reality.

The biggest divide won’t be rich vs poor or left vs right. It’ll be between people who can opt out of systems and people who can’t, and that gap will shape everything else.
We’re moving toward a world where access matters more than ownership. You won’t lose things; you’ll just lose permission. That’s why projects like Samourai Wallet mattered so much: they weren’t just apps, they were examples of decentralization and open-source resistance to permissioned systems. When code is open and control is distributed, losing access isn’t a policy decision. It’s a lot harder to enforce.


Chilling night.


Bro’s spending more money with his setup than with BTC.


Every new financial control system needs a scapegoat.
Money laundering. Terrorism. “Safety”.
In Brazil, Drex is sold the same way: full traceability for citizens, limited transparency for power, as the public doesn’t get real insight into how politicians spend, HOWEVER the State gets real-time insight into how everyone else does.


Žižek has this idea that ideology isn’t what we believe, it’s what we do even when we “know better.” That’s why most control systems today don’t feel oppressive. They feel convenient.
Big examples are: auto-updates you can’t opt out of; accounts frozen by “risk models”; rules enforced by interfaces, not people.
You don’t need force when people comply by default. You just need things to work well enough.


For me, it’s Bitcoin. And nothing else.
Even though I’m a cypherpunk, I like the idea of buying physical gold and silver — but it never feels completely reliable. It’s not easy to liquidate, transfer, or even divide, and that makes it clunky compared to digital money. Gold and silver are physically real, yes, but the trustless, instant, divisible, borderless characteristics that appeal to cypherpunks are missing. That’s why, even though they’ve historically held value, they don’t feel as dependable in practice.
Hahahahaha


What I’m telling you is… DON’T FUCKING SELL YOUR BITCOIN!!!!!

The State seeks control, but the true Prince is you: master of your own life, architect of your freedom. As Machiavelli taught, power comes from understanding and shaping the world; as the Cypherpunk Manifesto declares, privacy is the shield of liberty. Encrypt your life, act strategically, and BUILD voluntary networks — your autonomy is sovereign, and no law or ruler can claim it.
