Satoshi's paper was titled "A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" 17 years later, we have neither. Not peer-to-peer. Not cash. Here's why I invented Unicity to fix this. 🧵

Privacy isn't a feature. It's the foundation of freedom. Without privacy, there is no free speech, no free association. Unicity is infrastructure for a free internet.

Unicity delivers what Satoshi described but couldn't build with 2008 technology: True peer-to-peer transfer Cash-like privacy No middlemen, no mempools, no MEV The original vision. Finally possible.

Growing up in a surveillance state teaches you something: Privacy isn't about hiding. It's about freedom. Кто контролирует данные — тот контролирует людей. (Whoever controls the data controls the people.)

What if each token was its own self-contained proof? Self-authenticating. Moving directly from peer to peer. No shared ledger. No global state. No one watching. Same trust model as Bitcoin - but actual P2P. Actual privacy at scale.

The cypherpunks dreamed of digital cash that preserved freedom. We got digital gold with transaction surveillance.

What does "cash" actually mean? Cash is private. When I hand you cash, no one else knows. Blockchains today? Every transaction is visible forever. Your entire financial history, on a public ledger. That's not cash. That's surveillance infrastructure.

What does "peer-to-peer" actually mean? It means I transfer to you something directly. No intermediary. No validator. No sequencer. Blockchains today? Every transaction goes through miners/validators and a global ledger. That's not P2P.
