Do you understand the contradiction? You are supposed to have a hardware wallet for security, and to keep it hidden, not to walk around showing off the logo. The device should be as discreet as possible. It could even be designed to look like something else so that if someone accidentally sees it in a drawer on your desk, they won't be tempted to steal it. The easiest way to violate cryptographic security is with a wrench hitting you over the head and asking for the seed. Marketing for idiots.

Not suitable for maximalists: Technological diversity is the real strategy. True strength lies in the heterogeneity of environments. Decentralizing decentralization itself is the ultimate goal.

Traceable blockchains are the ultimate tool for freedom... specifically, freedom from state control of your every move. Algorithmic rules are replacing human decisions. Soon, the government will tokenize your wallet, your stocks, and your identity. You are no longer a person, just an obedient NFT in a centralized database. Don't worry about privacy; your existence is now a permanently auditable entry in a centralized chain. Smile for the smart contract! Welcome to the centralized ledger.

So you live in Europe or a G7 country and think you're free? Tell your naivety that China doesn't export ideology; it exports control. Stop dreaming about Western freedoms: take a look at the Chinese model. China isn't vintage communism; it's the future in 4K, gourmet technocracy. Start studying its “surveillance capitalism”, because it's the exact spoiler for your life in five years.

Do you understand this? All bankers around the world are on the crypto path, mainly Bitcoin and stablecoins. What do these networks have in common? Traceability. That is the basis for regulating them later. You can't control what you can't see. Signals of #Technocracy

Without critical thinking there is no privacy, and without privacy there is no freedom. Why? Without critical thinking, there is no questioning, and privacy loses its meaning. Without privacy, your freedom is vulnerable. So? By transitive property 👇🏻 No critical thinking, no freedom.

A new chapter of my book is next to be published: 'Understanding The Information Age. The Sovereign Individual.' ─Chapter 4: Politics and Digital Governance It is published under the Creative Commons BY-NC-ND license. It is free and open. Democracy will not die in a coup or with tanks in the streets. It will die quietly — update after update, click after click — while we accepted the terms & conditions without reading a single line. Power is no longer in parliaments or ballot boxes. It lives in servers, recommendation algorithms, biometric databases, and the boards of five corporations nobody elected. They decide what you see, what you think, what you buy, and who you hate. Total surveillance no longer needs secret agents or thick files. Your phone is enough. Your digital identity knows you better than your own mother. And that identity doesn’t belong to you — it belongs to whoever owns the infrastructure. Politics has been fully technified. We no longer debate ideas; we optimize metrics. Candidates aren’t people who persuade — they’re products that get A/B tested. Campaigns don’t mobilize; they micro-target. Voting still exists… but it decides less and less. The result: a hollow democracy. Perfect form, zero substance. Flawlessly functioning electronic ballots… to choose between options pre-approved by the people who wrote the code. The only way out? Individual technological sovereignty. Open systems, free software, decentralized infrastructure, end-to-end encryption. Whoever controls your tools controls you. Whoever controls their own tools stays free.

We have gone from the promise of 2009 that “no one can stop you” to the reality of 2025 that “everyone can see you” (and track you with forensic analysis). That's why #Monero

A consortium of 10 major EU banks, including BNP Paribas and ING, is forming Qivalis to launch a euro-pegged stablecoin by mid-2026 under the oversight of the Dutch Central Bank. The project complies with EU's MiCA framework to enable 24/7 cross-border payments and programmable finance, reducing reliance on USD-dominated stablecoins like USDT and USDC. Do you understand? Total tokenization is underway. The last link in the chain is you: Digital identity.

Where we are headed, you will need: Monero – truly private money Nostr – censorship-resistant social network Session – metadata-free messaging Matrix/Element – federated and scalable communication Linux – an operating system under your control GrapheneOS – hardened mobile system Tor – browsing and anonymity on the network LibreWolf – open and hardened browser Nextcloud – self-managed personal cloud Tutanota – end-to-end encrypted email A kit like this is not a luxury; it is room for maneuver. In an increasingly cataloged future, this is the minimum required to avoid living in the open. Learn about #privacy; it's the best time and money you'll ever spend. liberlion.com/privacy

It's a genuine shock 😏 The very moment bankers took an interest in the crypto industry, their political partners immediately sprang into action to 'regulate' the ecosystem's development. We were promised a paradise for the sovereign individual, and what we got, of course, was the thrilling and totally unexpected statist hell. What a marvelous journey for de-decentralization.

Your dreams don't fit in a ballot box, but politicians' dreams do.

▫️It's not AI, it's how you use it. AI as devil's advocate, or as an oracle. One form elevates you, the other subjugates you. ▫️It's not AI, it's how they use it. AI as a technology for research, or as a tool for control. One form elevates humanity, the other subjugates it. ▫️It's not AI, it's you. ▫️It's not AI, it's humanity. ▫️It's not AI, it's the use. #Technocracy #AI

AI IS THE VEHICLE; TECHNOCRACY IS THE GOAL. Sometimes in analysis, the messenger is confused with the message, the vehicle with the driver. It is an interpretive fallacy that leads to erroneous conclusions. AI, like any technology, can be used to elevate, or destroy, or simply concentrate power. But blaming the tool is childish. You don't blame the knife for a murder, or the camera for espionage. If you confuse the map with the territory, the fight is already lost. AI is the engine of technocracy, yes. But the problem is not silicon, it is people hungry for domination, psychopaths who are driven by society itself, creating their own enemies. Let's imagine for a moment that centralized governments did not exist. We would not fear AI as a weapon of control, but would welcome it as humanity's most liberating tool. The problem is social, almost biological: most people seek leaders, and that dynamic creates megalomaniacs who are functional to power. Now those kinds of characters have something more influential than the atomic bomb in their hands. A bomb arouses horror and outrage. AI, on the other hand, operates under the radar. It conditions you without you noticing. That's why it's more dangerous. The next five years are going to be painful. Even more so in developed countries, where technocracy will advance rapidly and without asking permission. And it's worth noting that AI will not be to blame. Politicians and tech oligarchies, both in Silicon Valley and China, will be. AI is the vehicle; technocracy is the goal.

4.3 Million Browsers Infected: Inside ShadyPanda's 7-Year Malware Campaign

ShadyPanda’s seven-year campaign infected 4.3 million browsers, spreading malware undetected and endangering user security worldwide.

Blockchain in Technocracy It becomes clear when you slow down for a second and look at the whole picture. Blockchain was born as a heresy, an attempt to break the dependence on intermediaries and return custody to the hands of each individual. A distributed ledger, without permission, without intermediaries, p2p, verifiable by anyone, resistant to censorship and the whims of the powerful. An architecture designed to multiply sovereignty. However, current signs paint a different picture. States saw blockchain not as a threat, but as an opportunity. They discovered that an immutable record also serves as a means of surveillance. That total traceability is a wet dream for any bureaucrat. That a distributed network can become a panopticon if grafted onto KYC systems, digital identities, and algorithmic governance. The irony is brutal: the tool created to liberate ends up enabling a model where governments and Big Tech merge into a single layer of control. The promise of sovereignty is transforming into the substrate of technocracy. Technology is neutral, but power structures never are.

The Next Frontier of Censorship: Killing the VPN Many countries pushing new content-regulation laws are no longer satisfied with controlling what you see, they now want control over how you connect. VPNs began as a simple way to regain privacy and bypass local blocks, but in the current political climate they’ve become a target. Why? Because a VPN breaks the geographic map regulators rely on to filter information. If they can’t locate you, they can’t censor you. This is why governments and platforms are increasingly blacklisting VPN IP ranges, detecting datacenter traffic patterns, and blocking any connection that looks “too anonymous”. Behind the friendly narrative of “user protection” lies a simpler truth: systems built for control cannot tolerate escape routes. The trend is obvious. As regulatory pressure intensifies, more States will try to restrict or outlaw VPN usage to keep their censorship architecture intact. Free access will become the exception, not the rule.
