We wholeheartedly agree, no censorship should take place If a bunch of re.tards express a desire to fork off, they should be absolutely have the right to do so
Ask yourself, if bip-110 is a 'nothingburger' and has no chance of succeeding, according to the bitcoin establishment, then why censor discussion of the bip in every online bitcoin forum? Perhaps because powerful people are afraid of the plebs taking back control of bitcoin?

Silent Payments, Reusable Payment codes, Stealth addresses - none of them make your payments “untraceable”. They merely mitigate address re-use which is a worthy goal but the marketers will amplify AI slop posts to convince you otherwise
Not these kind! Maybe you should read the post

A straightforward proposal to inscribe BIP47 payment codes onto Bitcoin using Ordinals, creating a decentralised, censorship-resistant directory that anyone can write to and verify. ~$300 for the entire known database. No servers to seize. bip47db.github.io/

Put this together in a couple of evenings with Gemini. The bar to developing applications is clearly lower now! Not a privacy tool but a cost management and visualisation one. unspent.to/

Please sign the petition. It's important and won't cost you anything. You can even sign with your initials or a pseudonym, if you want, and use an alias or disposable e-mail address. This case is too absurd to be ignored and will have consequences for Bitcoin. #pardonsamourai #freesamourai Visit: billandkeonne.org

One Bitcoin developer is walking into federal prison today for writing code. 
 This is the story of how the DOJ weaponized the justice system to destroy them. And why Trump might be their only hope. 
This is the Samourai Wallet Story 🧵👇

Tonight is the last time I will sleep in my own bed next to my loving wife. For the next 5 years I will be housed in a federal prison at taxpayer expense for a "crime" without a victim. Just one of many victims of lawfare perpetrated by a weaponized Biden DOJ where truth and justice were sidelined in favor of a political anti innovation agenda. Where evidence was hidden and suppressed because it didn't fit the story highly partisan line prosecutors needed to tell. Where Supreme Court precedence was ignored by activist judges. Tomorrow I will surrender to FPC Morgantown. I will no longer be Keonne Rodriguez inside that institution, instead I will be a number, 11404-511. But outside of those walls my name will be kept alive. My loving wife, my family, my friends, all of you who have supported #pardonsamourai will make sure of that. I know walking into that institution that the story doesn't end there. I maintain hope that President @realDonaldTrump is a fair man, a man of the people, who will see this prosecution for what it was: an anti innovation, anti american, attack on the rights and liberties of free people. I believe his team @AGPamBondi @EdMartinDOJ @DAGToddBlanche and others truly want to end the weaponization of the DOJ that the previous administration wielded so effectively. The framers of our Constitution gave the Executive the power to pardon for exactly this reason, to balance out and restore justice when no one else would. President Trump has proven he takes that power seriously. I believe he will continue to wield that power for good and pardon me and Bill. Keep up the noise. Thank you all for your support. See you on the other side.

Two software developers are going to prison for writing CODE. The creators of Samourai Wallet have pleaded guilty for doing everything BY THE LAW. Here’s what the DOJ doesn’t want you to know: • They asked regulators if it was legal they were told YES • DOJ hid that evidence for a year (Brady violation) • Trump’s memo says don’t prosecute developers • 50 armed FBI agents raided their homes for no reason • Judge Berman was mysteriously swapped out for Judge Cote without explaination

In this interview for Deep Focus, I talked to Keonne Rodriguez, an American software designer and co-founder of #samouraiwallet, who was fined millions of dollars and sentenced to five years in federal prison by the U.S. Justice Department for allegations of creating source code for an unlicensed money-transmitting business, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. #bitcoin youtube.com/watch?v=Ft_WgUh5…

If Bitcoiners used even 1% of the time they've spent on the Knots / Core debated to engage with the Samourai case Keonne and Bill would already be free... I, too, am guilty of not using my platform to spread the #pardonsamourai message more. That changes now. Going to do what I can, and hope everyone else does the same. If they come for one of us, they will come for all of us.

The SDNY is a lawless den of vipers. There is no interest in truth and justice. There is only interest in advancing the personal and political narratives of the protected class. The President @realDonaldTrump knows this, they weaponized the law against him too. They continue to to flout him, his administration, and his executive orders. The "Sovereign" district of New York staffed by hold over deep state apparatchiks must be brought to heel. We built software. We provided tools for Americans to defend themselves against unlawful surveillance. There was no victims in our "crime". Not one person lost money. Not one person was scammed. If the United States is to remain the dominant force in the world for innovation, the President has to restore balance. Our brilliant software developers need to know a weaponized DOJ will not come after them for the actions of a few bad actors they have never met. Join us asking the President to bring law and order back to a lawless SDNY and right the wrongs made by the previous administration. Pardon me and Bill. Free all the Biden era "Crypto Prisoners" #pardonsamourai #freeiannow #freeromanstorm #freeromansterlingov

PRIVACY SOFTWARE DEVELOPER SENT TO PRISON BY “WEAPONIZED BIDEN DOJ” “I operated Samourai Wallet openly and notoriously in this country for 10 years, and for 10 years, there was no problem. And then, suddenly, under a weaponized Biden DOJ, on April 24th, 2024, 50 FBI agents raided my home with guns, drones, armored vehicles…and arrested me.” - @keonne shares his story with @ericbolling. @POTUS
