earendil unstoppable peer-to-peer communication docs / github / discord "Earendil is the first anonymous communication and transaction network designed to be decentralized, incentive-compatible, and ban-resistant. It is a foundational off-chain protocol in the Mel ecosystem. Unlike VPNs, onion routers, and most "censorship-resistant" web3 protocols, Earendil is designed to run on fully hostile network infrastructure. It's nearly invisible to ISPs and defends against powerful attackers willing to ban rather than subvert or censor the protocol. Earendil is currently a work-in-progress. A minimally functional pre-alpha is available."

Agorism in the 21st Century

Agorism in the 21st Century Journal

"Cypto is an industry formed in the wake of a grand vision. Its early pioneers were agorists who dreamed of a future beyond coercion and built tools to expand the space of freedom outward. Overtime, crypto's vision has wavered. Agorism in the 21st Century (AXXI) was formed in response to this lack. AXXI seeks to revitalize crypto's potential by returning to its agorist roots. AXXI amplifies dissonance and brings voices together from across the political spectrum. It is also a call for unity. AXXI resurrects the unifying vision of an agorist alliance beyond the surveillance state. To journey outward with intent crypto must first embark on a journey to strengthen its resolve. Agora. Anarchy. Action." #archercrypto

Why Privacy Failed - ZK Part 2

Totally supercool and chilled VC investing in programmable assets, collaborative intelligence and other buzzwords.

"Why has privacy failed to date? Both as a concept and a practical matter we see a general lack of urgency. When you talk to somebody, few - if any - do not support the idea of privacy, and yet the adoption of privacy-preserving measures is largely under tapped. By this, I mean across all of the web, not just Web 3. While privacy is a more nebulous concept, in Web 3 we can generally distill the space into two verticals: private blockchains (largely financial) and private data (personal data ownership). There are Monero Zealots out there, but for the most part privacy projects are abject failures (in terms of adoption) despite this inherent expression of desire for it." #archercrypto
