My favorite ethos comes from b-money because I wish to live in an open society even for people living in authoritarian regimes.
"I am fascinated by Tim May’s crypto-anarchy. Unlike the communities traditionally associated with the word “anarchy”, in a crypto-anarchy the government is not temporarily destroyed but permanently forbidden and permanently unnecessary. It’s a community where the threat of violence is impotent because violence is impossible, and violence is impossible because its participants cannot be linked to their true names or physical locations."
I'm not a lawyer or familiar with Russian law, but I assume @npub1sn0w...jdv9 would not be allowed to send me a check in the mail, but he mined a nostr vanity key and knows how to use bitcoin.
My dad will be 85 in a couple months. On his first day of school, he tried getting a drink of water, but the teacher told him he was not allowed to use that water fountain.
He walked home to get a drink of water because he didn't know there was a "colored" water fountain. We don't have "colored only" water fountains in the United States anymore, but it is common to see signs that say "no cash accepted." I
tried starting a meet up at a coffee shop about 104,000 blocks ago. The coffee shop had such a sign. The place was packed with gentiles. They let successful colored people in, but the sign might as well say "No Riff-Raff." In my opinion, that is not conducive to an open society.
This is my favorite Cypherpunk resource.
