What’up Vigilantes!  There once was a man from Edmonton, Alberta… His name was SEK3, an agorist assertor. He believed in counter-economics, And hated all commies. Said a free market system’d never hurt ya.  Seemingly overnight, Wall Street and Silicon Valley (read pro-legacy banksters and elite BigTech) have come out in favor of the mainstream adoption…

What’up Vigilantes! “Tragedy, he perceived, belonged to the ancient time, to a time when there were still privacy, love, and friendship, and when the members of a family stood by one another without needing to know the reason.” This quote from George Orwell’s 1984, in which isolation is a very important theme: From the beginning…

Vigilantes beware! Caveat emptor is Latin for “Let the buyer beware”. Actually, it’s the short form of Caveat emptor, quia ignorare non debuit quod jus alienum emit (“Let a purchaser beware, for he ought not to be ignorant of the nature of the property which he is buying from another party”) And that’s exactly what…

If you have nothing to hide, why do you care about cryptocurrency privacy? Which to me is the same as saying, ‘If you stay in your family bubble and meet your curfew, why worry about your neighbors reporting you to the cops?’, or, ‘If you pay your tax, the government will take care of you’.…

Yeah, I know, I know…What goes up must come down. But that’s not to say we shouldn’t celebrate the highs, right? And we certainly should celebrate Bitcoin’s 12th birthday as it becomes that really popular teenager everyone wants to be friends with.

One of my personal mottos is to look where it is forbidden. When the crypto masses aggregate around a cause without providing satisfactory argumentation, I venture out with my own research in search for my own conclusions. And I debate them with Mr. X and The Crypto Vigilante team.  As such, way (way) back in…

You haven’t bought Bitcoin yet and now it’s over $23,000 and it keeps on growing and you’re never going to be able to afford the “new global currency” and if only you’d listened to your geeky cousin Jeff in 2013 because he just bought a yacht and sailed off into the sunset with Miss America.…
