Anonymous journalist researching Tor: the uncensored internet. Privacy is a human right. http://torproject.org
Assume that Tor is compromised if you are hosting a .onion hidden service. Cryptomarkets are getting seized regularly (Archetyp, Incognito). Activists: don't use Tor alone without additional network hops, don't commit crimes.
Silk Road's admin Defcon has apparently been helping the FBI for years #FreeRoss nytimes.com/2024/07/24/bus…
All activists should obsess over darknet arrests, criminal complaints. Mass surveillance tech is practiced against Tor crypto users, to be perfected against anyone who chooses to have a voice in the future. Learn from others' mistakes, study darknet prosecutions.
Zcash won the DEX arms race. It is now on 2 DEX's with >1 million USD liquidity: @Maya_Protocol and @NEARProtocol. Monero still has no DEX, minimal liquidity on atomic swaps, and has every LE crosshair in the world aimed at compromising it. I have lost faith in XMR.
Privacy coins still have no DEX worth using. Obtaining untraceable money like Monero or Zcash Orchard requires leaving a trace on logged centralized exchanges and swap sites, today's biggest risk factor for surveilled crypto users.
OPSEC legend... he's been married this whole time!? 🤣
Oops...the first thing I try to do on X and I screw it up! I accidentally deleted my last post about taking over the account: 6.5 years ago my wife created this X account to give me my voice back. All this time, she relayed my messages to you word for word. Starting now, MY…
Rumours of Thorchain's death are greatly exaggerated. They are resilient af. Decentralized paths for no-KYC Bitcoin are critical for the human right to privacy.
Every fed is trying to break Monero. By centralizing around only one privacy coin, at-risk communities make their deanonymization easier.
YES! SO MUCH YES! This is WONDERFUL! Congratulations Ross! Welcome back to your life! You did twice as much time as I did for SR, but you did it facing a black hole of hopelessness. Yet you never lost hope. You're a beacon, Ross! Here's to your future!
Ross was just granted a FULL AND UNCONDITIONAL PARDON by @realDonaldTrump. Words cannot express how grateful we are. President Trump is a man of his word and he just saved Ross's life. ROSS IS A FREE MAN!!!!!
Ross Ulbricht pardoned!!!! I never thought I'd live to see this day. So happy for you @Free_Ross!!! @RealRossU your community is here for you for every step of reintegrating. SO HAPPY. Viva DPR, Viva Bitcoin!
Will Trump really free Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht on the first day of his second term?
Extortion is the new exit scam. The #1 darknet drug market took all of its users' money days ago. Now its admin Pharoah is demanding that each seller pay a ransom or he will turn their data over to the police. We'll see how this plays out for him.
Incognito darknet market is exit scamming. Users can deposit Bitcoin and Monero, cannot withdraw. Huge admin BTC outflows yesterday. Staff has not logged in. They purchased the news site Darknetlive before the scam, do not trust it right now. Bitcoin ATH, darknet ATL.
ALERT: Incognito Market withdraws are not working. This has happened before with BTC but is the first time that both are failing. No posts from admin yet. Brace for a potential exit scam.
