Vexl is a mobile app giving its customers a simple, inclusive, secure and private way to buy and sell BTC as it was intended: peer to peer (and without KYC).
KYC belongs in the dumpster 🚮
February Vexl Challenge? Pick one KYC exchange, delete it and tag them in the comments to let them know why!
Start with one. End with zero. We know, you still got a few “just in case”. 😎
"It's fair because the government gets 36% of your profits annually."
🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱 logic.
You can freeze an account, not P2P Bitcoin!
“It’s safe because it’s regulated”
If you’re not the «Crazy noKYC Guy» in your Bitcoin community, you’re doing it wrong.
The best privacy move is removing the middleman 🫢
If printing more fiat would end poverty, collecting more personal data would end crime.
Freedom tech does not build itself.
Vexl Foundation is turning 3 years of dev/hack/day and Cypherpunk Meetup into something bigger:
Announcing >_Freedom_Tech_Summit
One day. In-person only. No livestream. No fluff.
Just builders shipping tools that make surveillance obsolete.
Bitcoin • Lightning • Cashu • Nostr • Meshcore • And beyond!
Prague | June 10 | The day before @BTCPrague
Early bird tickets + Call for proposals open! ⬇️
Visit freedomtechsummit.com
for more info and follow @FreedomTechSummit to stay up to date!
Financial surveillance is here to keep you safe.
If you are still using Bitcoin apps that feel like banks.
You are not a Bitcoiner.
KYC exchanges making privacy their priority.
This is your Bitcoin on KYC.
Any questions?
It can't be worse, right?
Real Bitcoiners:
go P2P
spend sats
prefer PoW
meet in person
hate middlemen
verify, don’t trust
hold their own keys
avoid KYC databases
pick open-source any day
don’t chase custodian yield
Forget New Year's resolution.
We introduce monthly Vexl Challenge.
Download Vexl, do your first P2P trade and let us know, how it went! 😎
"Buying Bitcoin P2P was the first time I didn’t feel like I was being watched."
Every other way you buy Bitcoin:
Stop being a customer, start being a Bitcoiner.
Unless you want to experience this.
5 Myths about P2P:
1) It's unsafe
2) Too complicated
3) KYC is required
4) Can’t scale
5) Privacy doesn’t matter
Did we miss anything?
Cypherpunks in Cars brought to you by Vexl is back.
Prague. A taxi. @Jameson Lopp @knutsvanholm @npub1gunk...nudq and @Chris @ seedor_io squeezed into the backseat.
Filter wars, self-custody, Bitcoin politics.
Things escalated quickly when discussing @lopp _return😱
