Please consider, I am still developing my philosophy. That being said, I have thought a great deal about many of these things and I think they have a strong basis. I can provide supporting evidence and arguments later. This is just an outline of the philosophy which may be refined or refactored at…

X Corp sent C\&Ds on Aug 24 & Sep 8 demanding permanent takedown of all Nitter instances + the repo. The Sep 7 update claiming legal representation was based on false assurances: no counsel in place rn. zedeus on HN: "I was misled by an individual who claimed to be helping the Nitter project pro…
I never think it’s a great idea to publicly proclaim you are withholding tax, or to publicly talk about organized withholding tax events like Jocko Willink and others are considering as a protest measure. That said withholding tax is a fast way to curb governments, cause reform and reshape the…
Skylight by MAGIC Grants is one of the very few wallets that run off Monero LWS, which kills the dreaded sync wait I hate so much. Brings us closer to a mobile XMR experience w/ the UX modern chains provide. Making a mobile device do the chain scan never made much architectural sense to begin w/.…
Everyone remembers their first Monero. How did you get yours? Mining on a laptop that sounded like a jet engine? A P2P trade? A friend who wouldn't shut up about it until you caved? An ATM at 2 AM? Tell the story — the sketchier the better.
In an effort to make Monero as private as it can be and return to its cypherpunk roots, today I am submitting Monero Improvement Proposal 1984 (MIP-1984) to add a transparent address type into the protocol. t-addresses in Monero will allow us to reveal our transaction data to the entire world,…
Welcome to Stasher. With this post, I want to introduce you to the funniest game powered by Monero, a privacy coin you can earn and spend to create insightful posts and thoughtful comments. I discovered Monero a long time ago, forgot about it, and this game gave me an opportunity to dust off my…
One thing is clear: the golden age of decentralized Monero liquidity is upon us. The way it was supposed to be all along. Liquidity isn't about whether you can buy Monero. If every country on Earth banned Monero, and every exchange delisted it, anyone would still be able to trade Monero anywhere in…
Incoming Zcash/ZODL scandal: $589k frozen after Zcash swapped through Near Intents.

just read this and thought stashers might find it interesting too: Alright, I'd like to have a discussion regarding bitcoin's fungibility (or lack there of). I am a bitcoiner and have been for a decent number of years but I would ask that we leave our maxi hats at the door and look at this…
A while back, Spirobel shared an article: Robust Monero Escrow with offline Arbitrators "With this library it is now possible to let arbitrators share their dkg public keys, similar to how people share their monero addresses and let them be included in the escrow wallets. The merchants define a…

If you’ve never considered the state’s monopoly on identity or the idea of separating ID from the state the way we advocate separating money from the state, read “The ‘unregistered Americans’: because of their parents, they do not exist” before answering.
I've been spending time on Stasher News and XMR Bazaar lately, and they're honestly the first places where Monero felt real to me — not just a coin to hold, but money you actually use. Tipping posts, buying things, no middlemen. But it got me wondering: these are still pretty niche corners of the…
The entire Bitcoin story is a scripted, staged illusion put together by insiders to convince you that states and corporations are “wholeheartedly committed to this” and that the market is growing on genuine demand. We are looking at the BIGGEST bubble in human history, one that will go down in the…

Alright, so I tried out this vibecoding thing and I had the fun idea to launch a new blockchain with FCMP++ enabled at genesis, fully merge-mined with XMR - of course with P2Pool-compatibility. Syncing a stressnet node takes a while, so if you want to try out FCMP++ before its mainnet release, this…
