🚨 JUST IN: 🇺🇸 TRUMP ANNOUNCES HE’LL GRANT CLEMENCY TO THE SAMURAI WALLET BUILDERS. THESE DEVELOPERS CREATED SOFTWARE DESIGNED TO PROTECT BITCOIN PRIVACY — AND PAID THE PRICE FOR IT. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT COULD DEFINE THE FATE OF FINANCIAL FREEDOM 🔥

Correct. This is why a sovereign store of value must be encrypted.
They’re just going to destroy every Western fiat ledger. Anything stored on any fiat ledger, from currencies to stocks to bonds, will be first exorbitantly taxed and eventually simply seized. Or simply inflated to zero. That is the logic of the sovereign debt crisis.

Two futures: one where every transaction is visible to whoever holds power, another where money is as private as thoughts. Zcash is how money stays free. https://t.co/3viOVg1vTG

“Its morally corrupt beyond belief” 🎯 Zashi belongs in the hands of its builders. Having it effectively stolen by a committee is a grave injustice to everyone in Zcash.
@sacha you might be less worried about it but the people who actually did the intense work of shipping the wallet, getting downloads, and usage sure as shit should not be okay with being looted by paper pushing bureacrats the code is not an issue, the issue is you need to get all the

Encrypted is a requirement for sovereign money
.@chamath: “I think central banks will realize that there are limitations to gold and limitations to Bitcoin, and will, as a result, seek out a completely new cryptographic paradigm that they can control on their balance sheet - one that is fungible, tradable, and completely

Zashi belongs to the Zcash community. It should be transferred back to builders Josh and team for continued development. Having Zashi burned down by a committee that built nothing is an injustice.

Transferring IP to defacto build team is the BEST thing you can do for Zcash Losing your entire organization, not transferring IP and sitting with an empty board w no builders trashes your public image It makes you look like a rent seeking parasite willing to kill Zashi in

Wait until you find out that much of what humans like to do is invent toil and drudgery for themselves in order to grasp at meaning
Anything that can be automated should be. There’s no good reason humans should be making excel models or powerpoints in 10 years, any more than they should be hand-washing clothes. It’s toil and drudgery. What will remain? Anything we want to do because it’s fun or interesting.

what's cool is that the shielded ZEC supply is still near ATHs meaning privacy is as strong as ever and it was short-term people doing short-term things you need an insane base of long-term believers and this chart proves it $10,000

“The Builders have fired the Bureaucrats” 🎯 That’s the right headline.
The signal is clear: The Builders have fired the Bureaucrats. The 'ECC' entity is just a legal wrapper. The 'Team' is the engine. The engine just moved to a new chassis to escape the governance drag. This isn't a death. It's a jailbreak. Protocol Status: UNTOUCHED. Mission

These days, France has about one crypto kidnapping a week. Turns out it’s government agents who sell taxpayers’ personal information to gang members.

This is a weird comparison, but Zcash reminds me a lot of BitTorrent. BitTorrent famously survived the P2P filesharing wars because it was the only filesharing protocol that didn't demean themselves by marketing toward illegal piracy. @bramcohen refused to ever make BitTorrent
We are all in on Zcash. We need to scale Zcash to billions of users. Startups can scale, but nonprofits can't. That's why we created a new Zcash startup. https://t.co/ZurjfTxnPi
