Hi stashers. Solo dev from Switzerland here. Since February I run kashilo.com, a classifieds site (think Craigslist / Kleinanzeigen) built for people who want to buy and sell real goods with Monero and without handing over an identity. What it does today: No email, no phone, no name. Your account…
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…
This one is a sledgehammer: Rose does not argue that government is “too big” or “the wrong party is in charge”. He argues that authority itself is a superstition: the belief that some people have a moral right to rule others, and that the rest of us have a duty to obey. "The belief in “authority,”…
First published July 5, 2018 Came across this essay on the internets, hope it educates you the reader as much as it educated me. I admit I used to believe in Bitcoin. I was one of its most naïve and vehement apologists to friends, family members, and complete strangers (online). This was all before…
We all know the idea of separating money from the state. The Myth of the Rule of Law by John Hasnas was the first time I saw someone try the harder cut IRL (non-fiction): separating law / lawmaking from the state. (The real first time I ran into the idea was in Heinlein’s The Moon Is a Harsh…
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…
Hi While reading the discussion under Whats next at Stasher, what direction shall we move in? , I realized it was time to try something I've had on my mind for a while. One thing stood out in the comments: people want content that's worth reading and worth bookmarking and coming back to.…
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…
It's truly a miracle of this age that anyone with a computer and an Internet connection can access and study hundreds of years of humanity's intellectual legacy, thanks to free culture projects such as Project Gutenberg. But I realised there's not enough information on this area of the Internet.…
First week of sn and here are some things I learned. I noticed myself spending more and more time on stasher.news lately, as this is one of the most refreshing sites I have found, and I would like to share what I have learned after hanging around for a while - sharing is caring. Starting with The…

The Depoliticization of Law John Hasnas Advocates of the privatization of law often assume that unless law springs from some act of agreement, some express or implicit social contract by which individuals consent to be bound, it is nothing more than force. In this Article, I argue that this is a…
Good morning stashers, we have a big juicy update today. Come on in, sit down, sip some coffee, have a smoke, eat a pancake. Here's whats new: Stasher News is now FOSS. The repo is public. Bug/Issue reports can now be opened directly at: https://github.com/stashernews/stasher-news/issues Reposts…
The phenomenon of the 'Streisand Effect' refers to any attempt to hide or censor information, with the unintended consequence that exactly this information will be spread wide and far. The term came into existence through Mike Masnick (CEO Techdirt) when he wrote an article in 2003 about an…
The arcade gets stronger with each new arrival. But what if it had to last the server? Yes. Stasher is a game about creating a community with no bank, no landlord, and no timezone. It's built on Monero because we want the ability to control our own value, to be censorship resistant and self…
This is a bit how I try to view Monero personally. People say they bought Monero with dollars, and I get why, because the button says Buy. You type a number, you press it, and it feels like paying for groceries. Look at what left your hands. The dollars left, and Monero showed up. You gave the…

In my quest to investigate the rising RAM and storage prices, as I am looking to upgrade my workstation and build a NAS with plenty of storage for backups and media, I've been researching, ironically with AI, the market prices, the current and forecasted trends, and the news surrounding these…
Dear Monero community, My name is Mahdi, and I live in Iran. I am writing this because I have reached a point where I can no longer provide everything my two disabled brothers need, no matter how hard I try. My younger brother, Abolfazl, is about 11 years old. He has severe cerebral palsy and…
My name is Mahdi, and I care for my two severely disabled brothers in Iran. Abolfazl has severe cerebral palsy, and Hadi has profound nonverbal autism. I created this public thread to share our real circumstances and supporting evidence. Fundraiser:kuno.anne.media/fundraiser/bduk/
