I knew this day would probably come, but didn't expect it so soon. I am being investigated for running an illegal money transmission business in Canada (nodeless) Under the advice of my lawyers I need to shut down the main instance of it. As you guys know I made Nodeless completely open source in the event that this happens, so that others who don't live under communism can run a honest, privacy focused payments business. To my clients who are using it, I'm very sorry for the short notice but you'll need to find a new payment processing solution this weekend. DM me on telegram and I will personally walk you through setting up a btcpayserver instance that you can self host, or even your own instance of nodeless. I can't give much more information than this, not even supposed to say this much, but I owe it to you guys to let you know what's going on. To install nodeless on your own server, you can get started here:

The way his previous way worked was create an invoice and then after it gets paid immediately send to the person's lightning address. Instead he could get an invoice from the person's lightning address, then create one of his own with the same payment hash. Once the invoice gets to him, he pays the original invoice from the lightning address and use the preimage to settle the payment to him.
There is no "court of law" or "justice" to be had if you don't have private property rights. King Charles III is the head of state. King Charles III and his private government writes the laws and owns all the land and all the people within. No one has private property rights, the basis of all other rights, which means they have absolutely zero rights. You don't own yourself, "your" children, "your" money, "your" bank account, "your" house, or "your" land. You own nothing. You're a slave. What is the point of walking into a courtroom if you're without private property rights? What is the point of even having lawyers? Lawyers doesn't have property rights, either. The lawyer is just another slave. In a court of "law," the only thing being decided is who gets to keep his privileges, and who doesn't. "Justice" need not apply. In a court of "law," it's you vs. His Majesty King Charles III. The slave owner wins. The plebs only have privileges. Privileges can be taken away, rights cannot. Canada is not a democracy. It's a full-on dictatorship. This is written. A slave can only revolt. Kill of the entire British Royal Family. Finish off the cleanse with a complete physical elimination off the entire Marxist nomenklatura of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, etc. Americans and the Europeans should do the same. Annihilate the entire Marxist state apparatus, from top to bottom. This is the only right a slave has.
Different systems for different people. There is room for monarchies, a natural human order system, and room for libertarian free states. Not everyone, every family, tribe or culture views their system as slavery. Some view it as an extention of their genetic and cultural family. The American style revolution replaces monarchy with celebrity, god with money and family with media. The french and chinese although very different replace monarchy with the state, an artificial creation. We should have one or a few free states, libertarian, voluntarist , whatever. Like Bitcoin they provide an alternative if abuses go too far in other state structures as they cycle through various factors such as economy and population age. I appreciate where you are coming from, but its short sighted in regards human behavior, needs and inter human relationships. A subject of a monarchy is not a slave, but they are not "completely free", neither is an american, and less and less so. I can point to several people in prison and actually persecuted in sipposed free countries for every one "under investigation". But they were more free. Following your same arguments even americans, who must always pay property/land tax, subject to the draft, and all sorts of other things, are slaves. I know this sounds statist, but in light of the fact your alternatives have yet to proven to work for millions of people and be a better alternative (slavery is allowed under some libertarian visions) i can be "anti" statist and also acknowledge it could be much worst, that monarchy and democratic states have some good features, and i can then also further claim that a non-violent transition to a better one would be good, without contradiction. Your post calls for violence, which itself would lead to an NAP violation of people who enjoy monarchy. Have you considered that under libertarian principals the king is just a large inter generational property owner? Property Rights as you conceive them did not exist before terra nullus, for instance. All property rights also derive from the ability to enforce them, thus for americans this transferred from the king to the state system and minor kings, presidents. Someone had yo claim all lamd, to then be able to parcel it out. How could it be otherwise ? All the while these minor kings maintained slaves , while the monarchy actively abolisged them, for capitalist reasons by the way, not just humanitarian. You need to read more history, the violent stuff. Touch more grass and travel more, meet people and live in other countries. OP can pay a fine, others can continue work on it, the community can learn the dumb and obvious lesson that releasing potentialy controvertial software under your real i.d and without opsec is dumb and obvious, by now. They can move, work on new things. But killing monarchs instead of slowly making them irrelevant and symbolic, is burning down the house to kill a mouse. Cypherpunks write code. They don't kill or fed post.
I have so many questions. What was / is the difference between signing up for paid service or running your own instance? Can you move your business to another country and still offer the same service to Canadians? Or go completely behind tor? Thank you for everything you do.
I heard it explained on the Bitcoin Rapid-Fire podcast episode with Jeremy from Escape to El Salvador that there are more than a majority of those in the El Salvadorian government who are orange pilled and that even without Bukele, their country's stance for the foreseeable future echos that of Bukele's El Salvador. Seems like many living there are not concerned with any US meddling.
Lol, counterfeiting scammers trying to claim our database is money and that they have jurisdiction over it. All the stuff that's happening now is the signal for bitcoiners to gtfo of the collapsing fiat empires before they start lashing out wildly at *you* next. You don't owe them anything, you are not their property. Opt-out.
Just because "they" say it is illegal, makes you think the laws are there to keep the plebs under. Anything we will create for a better life making "them" irrelevant, they will make a NEW RULE: yes we have to make that illegal for no logical reason at all, blaming everything for "Your protection" or "National security". KEEP THE FIGHT. THE MORE THEY FIGHT US, THE CLEARER IT GETS... THEY ARE LOSING.
Sorry to hear that, keep up the good fight and protect yourself! But it doesn’t come as a surprise that this happened in Canada, because it is fully controlled by the families and banksters who control the British Empire (which was only renamed to “Commonwealth” without actually changing what it had been doing for centuries. I recommend reading or listening to Matthew Ehret in order to understand how destructive and dangerous these families and their empire is.
