Something you don't know - I'm living my 2nd life. Few years ago #Bitcoin saved my life. Thank you Satoshi.

Monero is getting more attacks recently? Let's get one thing straight. The protocol itself isn't getting hacked. The "attacks" we are seeing right now are a coordinated mix of regulatory crackdowns -- specifically the EU's DAC8 directive and the new US IRS Form 1099-DA rules-- alongside massive FUD campaigns. In reality, large-scale hackers are actively using Monero to wash hundreds of millions (like that $282 million social engineering hit in January) because the network's privacy actually works. The panic from the outside is entirely about the FCMP (Full-Chain Membership Proofs ) upgrade. If you look at the math, it is completely obvious why they are terrified. FCMP takes Monero's anonymity set from a fixed ring size of 16 and blows it up to the entire ledger—over 150 million unspent outputs. It achieves this leap in cryptography without relying on a completely unproven architecture. Most importantly, it does it without introducing any VC-backed "admin keys" or forced transparent turnstiles. So, who is scared? - The Surveillance State: Tax enforcement heavily relies on AI algorithms to scan transparent blockchains in milliseconds. FCMP completely blinds them. They are losing total control of the ledger. - Chain Analysis Firms: Their multi-million dollar government contracts depend on probabilistic tracing and heuristics. When every single transaction hides in an anonymity set of 150 million, their proprietary tracking software instantly becomes a useless paperweight. - Corporate "Privacy" Competitors: The teams running heavily funded, VC-backed privacy pools. FCMP proves you can achieve forward secrecy and massive scalability on a decentralized network without shaking hands with Wall Street or selling out to regulators. The ecosystem isn't under attack because it is failing. It's under attack because it is the only primitive left that the state and their AI tools cannot natively penetrate. They are trying to regulate away what they mathematically cannot break. Keep it this way and let them terrified even more. monero:native

In April, @mullvadnet provided sponsored DataPacket servers for GrapheneOS in Dallas and Frankfurt which each have 50Gbps peak bandwidth capacity. These now serve a large portion of the updates to GrapheneOS users and add a lot of capacity to our other services including our anycast authoritative DNS. We also have sponsored servers from ReliableSite, Cherry Servers, Zare and Xenyth. There are a total of 8 sponsored servers where 7 are primarily update mirrors. The update mirror servers also serve our website and network services as a replacement for VPS instances for the locations we have them. We host 2 anycast networks with our own ASN and IP space in order to self-host anycast DNS servers providing the authoritative DNS resolution for all of our services. Both IPv4 /24 blocks we use for anycast DNS were obtained for free via from ARIN via NRPM 4.10 along with the IPv6 space. We host 2 anycast networks with our own ASN and IP space in order to self-host anycast DNS servers providing the authoritative DNS resolution for all of our services. Both IPv4 /24 blocks we use for anycast DNS were obtained for free via from ARIN via NRPM 4.10 along with the IPv6 space. If one of our DNS servers goes down or fully loses connectivity, BGP routing across the internet will quickly adjust to send traffic to the other servers in the network. If a DNS resolver fails to get an answer from one of the anycast DNS networks, it will automatically fall back to the other one. Our GeoDNS was recently massively improved via @ipinfo sponsoring us with free access to their standard GeoIP database. They use over 1300 probes to scan the internet instead of relying on very inaccurate/incomplete WHOIS/geofeed data. We nearly always use the right server thanks to this database. We need additional dedicated servers for updates and other services in APAC where bandwidth is more expensive (Singapore, Sydney and Tokyo). We also need another server in North America to go along with our 2nd server from Cherry Servers in Amsterdam used to provide our opt-in geocoding service. We have enough bandwidth for updates in Europe and North America to handle quite a lot of further userbase growth. We do need additional servers for other things. Several other server providers contacted us with sponsorship offers but we mainly need several APAC servers now which is more costly.

The EU age verification app is presented as “completely anonymous”. But the risk is that member states (the countries are supposed to create their own versions of the open-source EU app) use it to introduce identity verification that makes it impossible to post anonymously on social media. The idea behind “completely anonymous” is to use Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) cryptography to break the link between the age credential issuer (EU governments) and the regulated services/sites. Currently, the EU app does not have ZKP functionality, contrasting Ursula von der Leyen’s claim that the app ”is technically ready to be used”. But more importantly, the app is designed to always function without ZKP technology; if ZKP is unavailable, the app falls back to a non-ZKP model. Even if fully developed ZKP technology could be implemented in the future, it would remain an optional extra feature that countries may choose to disable and that the EU could remove at any time. This means that the EU could decide at any time that ZKP may no longer be used, and in one stroke the app would fall back to its default mode, meaning that every post on social media carries an ID tag. By that point, an infrastructure will already have been rolled out; people will have gotten used to it, and it will be harder to roll it back. More details on mullvad.net/blog/age-verific…

It’s two minutes to midnight. The time for talking is over; the time for action is now. That’s why we are presenting the first-ever patriotic European Citizens’ Initiative: the @SaveEuropeAct. Acknowledging the ethnocultural continuity of Europe’s peoples as crucial for the preservation of Europe, we demand an immediate and total halt to immigration and the creation of a comprehensive European Remigration system. To achieve that, we need your help. With a million signatures, the European Commission must meet with us face-to-face and take a stance on remigration and the future of Europe as a whole.

🧵 On Tuesday, we crossed 25,000 sats sent to readers of The #Bitcoin Act through Lightning ⚡ Not sold. Not farmed. Not VC-funded “engagement”. Just sats sent directly to real Bitcoiners for opening and reading the newsletter early. And honestly… this is exactly the kind of internet I hoped Bitcoin would create.

1977 → 2026. The machine on the left is the SRI packet radio van where the internet was born. It routed data across 3 networks with no tower, no ISP, no central hub. Just nodes hopping packets. That's mesh networking, and it's older than the internet itself. The machine on the right is our future Blackbox. Same principle, modern guts: • messaging over LoRa mesh • a local LLM running fully on-device • Cashu/Bitcoin payments that move as plain text over radio • GPS mapping Off-grid. No internet required. The internet started decentralized and survivable. We're just bringing it home.

⚡️Mixero now routes Bitcoin and Ethereum through Monero for privacy. BTC → XMR → BTC ETH → XMR → ETH Other chains are borrowing Monero's privacy because they don't have their own. If XMR is "dead," why is it everyone's privacy layer?

Any idea what is this?
