KYC measures in this space are extreme and beyond what’s required by law. Where does the line get drawn?

Posted: 28 Nov 2019 01:14 PM PST

Coinbase just applied for a patent on a KYC process that's far more draconian than required. https://www.coindesk.com/coinbase-patents-automated-kyc-enforcement-tool

At what point do people stand for privacy anymore? These measures take control away from individuals and give them to financial establishments whose goals are self serving. Do people just simply not care about individual liberties anymore? If people do care, why are we collectively being so silent while this occurs?

Categorically Full Decentralized Exchange The only Thing that Matter

Posted: 28 Nov 2019 08:36 PM PST

If you know a DEX dev, they are the most VIP in crypto period. They are crypto, they are the only thing that will save our ass from the governments.

The Kumbaya of compliant institutions with the government for crypto use is a oxymoron. Cryptography is inherently an act of treason against westphalianism.

When the hammer finally falls when the foot finally drops and the price of btc plummets, nothing will matter but DEX.

Most of the DEX in crypto, 95% are fake DEX. They are not a DEX. IDAX isn't a dex. Cryptobridge exit scammed with KYC.

regulation regulation regulation. If we have to ask for permission to build this economy it will never be a real crypto economy it will be glorified securities with state sanction, it will fail at everything it was designed to do,.

What we need are people willing to learn to code, learn to apply code, apply cryptography, apply bleeding edge computer science to build an impenetrable interchain of uncensorable unsiezable full defi, we need a system that rewards devs above all else.

we need monero to btc cross atomic swaps, we need cross chain liquidity, we need really hyper bleeding edge liquidity engineering that makes centralized exchange obsolete.

The bitcoin hidden in a photo contest

Posted: 29 Nov 2019 12:17 AM PST

A while back there was a picture released and the person said there was a non-trivial amount of bitcoin hidden in the picture and if you could solve it you could keep it. Not sure why I thought of this now but I'm curious: how was it hidden? Were there clues to the seed words or was it something that takes analyzing the image file or what?

I poked around but I couldn't find the pic.

Edit: shit nevermind. Was gonna delete the post but here's the link for anyone curious. Pretty cool.

Edit 2: actually I still don't really get it. Maybe it's just too technical for me.

The 1% are scared....

Posted: 28 Nov 2019 10:20 PM PST

There is over $27 trillion untaxed dollars offshore. When bitcoin hits it devalues their cash....which they have to bring out or lose their cash. Get devalued or get taxed or lose it. Holders make money and the 1% lose. Democracy corrects 35 years of illegal trickle down.
