If you don't opt the fuck out soon you might not be able to. Start building a life and network outside of the system now, so that when biometric linked digital IDs and CBDCs become the norm you can survive without them.

Walmart is probably using facial recognition for this personalized pricing. It's a good time to stop buying from white market businesses and exit to the grey market. Every purchase you make outside their system helps. https://x.com/i/status/1996367697328656895

I told y'all it was time to pay attention to XMR. I can't wait until we flip Cardano, 2 more spots to go.

If you are seeing Monero kick the entire market's ass right now and wondering how to buy, you won't find Monero on Coinbase because they are scared and bend the knee to regulation that doesn't even exist yet. It is on Kraken in US only though. So it's not as easy as just opening your Farcaster wallet and swapping but it's still easy. Download Cake Wallet, generate a Monero wallet, and use the built in swap feature to go from USDC on Base or many other coins to Monero. https://cakewallet.com/

If I can take just one step out of the way to avoid having to kill a woman, I'm taking that step every fucking time, no matter who she is or what she's doing. That's just me though.

Almost at $3 now, still plenty of room from here to a new ATH. There is a much smaller total supply now than there was when it hit $20, due to a token burn.

I'm kind of worried that the ICE shooting right after the daycare fraud scandal are the straws that broke the camel's back for this country. Now everyone is very angry on both the right and left for very different reasons. I am getting serious "stock up on food and ammo" and flee the cities type vibes. I mean people are always angry online but this isn't that. Stay safe everyone.

An excerpt from my newsletter (link in bio) about the Zcash drama and how it highlights the differences between Monero's governance model and the Zcash model: The latest pullback in Zcash was accelerated when there was a surprise announcement from the CEO of the Electric Coin Company, Josh Swihart, stating that the entire core development team was resigning and forming a new company due to a conflict with the board of Bootstrap which is a different non profit than the Zcash Foundation involved in the trademark drama. Bootstrap was created specifically to oversee the Electric Coin Company, and the devs at ECC have to rely on the board of Bootstrap for funding. Josh Swihart's initial tweet seemed very bearish in it's wording and caused a massive sell off in Zcash as tweets lacking context stating the entire Zcash development team had resigned spread across X like wildfire. In reality it seems like the devs are just ditching their non profit overlords so to speak and continuing Zcash development in a new company so that they can get paid more money. https://twitter.com/jswihart/status/2008987228429799621 Josh waited almost a full day before he clarified what this mass resignation actually meant, and the price has recovered somewhat. https://twitter.com/mert/status/2009323866909503984 DefiIgnas did a good overview from potentially a less biased perspective than Mert, if you want to know more check out their thread. https://twitter.com/DefiIgnas/status/2009235841751613660 Regardless of whether the final outcome of this drama is bullish or bearish for Zcash, I think it is a good demonstration of the advantages of Monero's pure community based governance model versus Zcash's corporate/nonprofit hybrid model. Maybe it's best to go either all the way community governed like Monero, or just be run by a corporation on the other end of the spectrum instead of trying to straddle the line between the two. There are various legal reasons as well for different governance structures. It frustrates me that onerous government regulations have such a big effect on crypto governance structures. You have to wonder what kind of innovation hasn't been able to happen because people are more concerned with what's legal over what works. You can't blame them for it either, considering the gun in the room so to speak. However Monero's governance model has proven that a purely community run protocol can still fund itself, grow, and outperform the rest of the market. A corporation or foundation can easily be shut down by the state at any moment, a community can't be. Unlike Zcash, Monero has no dev tax for developers to fight over either. If you need proof that the community model is working, Monero is on the verge of breaking all time highs with one of the best looking charts in crypto right now. https://twitter.com/Cryptocowboys6/status/2009339365835833709 Monero has also resolved it's recent governance dispute, albeit one much less dramatic than the Zcash one. The Monero devs were trying to decide whether or not to put in place a temporary block size limit to prevent issues after the FCMP++ upgrade goes live. The impetus for this was that on the FCMP++ testnet very large blocks (over 100 MB) would break things. This means that theoretically post FCMP++ an adversary could try to spam the network to get the block size big enough to crash the network. Monero has a dynamic block size, so the blocks automatically scale with demand. Placing any kind of block size limit on Monero was controversial because Monero is meant to be digital cash, which means the ability to scale is important. Unlike Bitcoin which decided to keep blocks small so that poor people in third world countries could afford the storage space to run nodes or something. You have to think, if someone can't afford to buy a slightly bigger hard drive to run a node, they probably are too busy trying to eat to run a node anyways. I never understood the Bitcoin small blocker's arguments and I have to wonder..... I'm out of space, check out the Thought Crime Trap House for more!

$politics token is live, the rebirth of $buster and the official community token of both the Politics channel and the Policast prediction market miniapp. The Politics channel, led by @javabu.eth has been developing new and innovative ways to incentivize quality discourse and community participation in one of the largest and most active Farcaster channels. From the beginning when javabu used his degen tips to reward top casters, to now with the cura leaderboard intergration, Politics has maintained it's activity and engagement throughout the ups and downs of both the crypto market and the Farcaster network. This kind of community isn't built overnight and it has value that can't be easily replicated. This value has now been tokenized. Community tokens have always made more sense to me than coining posts or memes.

I like $VVV because it has actual utility plus revenue and privacy meta power. The founder, Erik Vorheez is based too. Tokenomics have improved since the launch as well. The launch had some issues but the team has continued shipping nonstop. FYI If you buy 100 tokens and stake them you get a pro subscription to Venice AI, and you can then unstake and sell them if you want while keeping pro.

How many people need to die before people stop supporting the state? Voting doesn't fix this. You can vote in the other party, but ICE will still exist, and the centralized power will remain. Waving signs doesn't fix this. Millioms of people participated in the No Kings protests and zero change came out of it. We have masked gestapo agents running around killing, assualting, kidnapping, and face scanning American citizens. Bootlicking statist sheep who are terrified of brown people are supporting trading their liberty for imaginary safety. Stop participating in their systems, until you opt out, you help legitimize this tyrannical government. Their power relies on the people's belief in the state's legitimate authority. Stop believing. There is nothing more powerful than an idea if that idea's time has come. https://farcaster.xyz/zoo/0x8acf34ce

My guess "RELIC" was wrong in @letshaveaword — that's one less possible word for everyone else. One person still wins the 0.0564 ETH jackpot 👀 🎯

Well I successfully converted XMR1 on HyperEVM to real XMR in my Monero wallet. I can't say the process was easy though, although the actual bridging on wagyu.xyz was painless, the XMR1 spot buying on the felix protocol was a nightmare experience. Idk if these were frontend issues or issues with HyperEVM, but it sucked. I hope the experience is improved because this could be a huge unlock for the Monero ecosystem. I go over what went wrong and what went right with the HyperEVM/XMR bridging in the next issue of Thought Crime Trap House, coming soon. If you haven't subscribed yet, the link is in bio.

A tax revolt should be bipartisan, no matter which party you support you are still getting fucked by the state. The "social contract", if it ever even existed, has been broken.
