Within the next decade, we'll see a permanent base established on the Moon—complete with a mass driver—and humans living on Mars.

Humans trying to live as sovereign individuals: blocked from basic banking. AI agents: already custodying bitcoin wallets and moving value. Let that sink in.

"The people who figure that out first won't just ship faster - they'll build things that others can't even spec, because the spec emerges last from a process that only exists in the doing of it." ~ Jesse Posner When your AI remembers your goals more clearly than you do in the heat of the moment, a profound shift has occurred in how we work. Jesse Posner's "The Secret to Vibe Coding" reveals the emerging art of true human-AI partnership: agentic workflows where the specification isn't written upfront but crystallizes last—named and understood only through the act of doing, as the process itself brings the intent into focus.

"The cypherpunk principle that 'cypherpunks write code' takes on revolutionary meaning when writing code no longer requires programming knowledge. Eric Hughes meant that political freedom comes through building systems without requesting permission, and now that building happens through natural language instruction to AI agents. You achieve sovereignty over computing through direct technical capability. The code becomes yours in the most fundamental sense: modified by your specifications, compiled on your hardware, serving your purposes exclusively." ~ Max Hillebrand Imagine a world where every software tool you rely on is perfectly tailored to your needs—stripped of unnecessary bloat, invasive telemetry, and unwanted features. Max Hillebrand contends that AI has transformed not only who gets to code, but the very nature of code itself. By merging open-source principles with powerful AI agents, we may finally dismantle the vendor lock-in model forever, ushering in an era of truly sovereign, user-controlled computing.

"German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said, 'The world order as it has stood for decades no longer exists', and that we are in a period of 'great power politics.'" "He made clear that freedom 'is no longer a given' in this new era. French President Emmanuel Macron echoed Merz’s assessment and said that Europe’s old security structures tied to the previous world order don't exist and that Europe must prepare for war." "U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that we are in a 'new geopolitics era' because the 'old world' is gone." ~ Ray Dalio The post-1945 world order is officially over, as declared by leaders from Germany, France, and the US at the recent Munich Security Conference, where figures like Chancellor Friedrich Merz bluntly stated the rules-based system "no longer exists" amid a return to raw great-power politics. This aligns precisely with Ray Dalio's framework in his chapter on the big cycle of external order and disorder, which maps how overextended empires decline through mounting debt, internal strife, and eventual clashes or wars. Yet Dalio may have overlooked a critical angle: what if the debt cycles he outlines aren't merely recurring patterns but symptoms of a deeper flaw in our fiat monetary system, prone to endless printing and debasement? Introducing Bitcoin—a decentralized, fixed-supply asset—into this escalating era of conflict could fundamentally disrupt that broken dynamic, offering a potential hedge or alternative as traditional currencies and orders falter.

Exciting expansion! 🚀 PrivKey.io building on their FROST/Keep wallet success with Taproot Assets support! What Taproot Assets enables: 🔸 Issue assets on Bitcoin - Stablecoins, tokens, securities directly on BTC blockchain 🔸 Bitcoin security - All assets benefit from Bitcoin's hash rate and finality 🔸 Lightning compatibility - Instant, cheap transfers of taproot assets via Lightning 🔸 Privacy benefits - Taproot's script privacy extends to asset transactions Why this matters for PrivKey: 🛡️ Threshold signing (Keep) + Asset management = comprehensive Bitcoin infrastructure 🛡️ No single point of failure for valuable tokenized assets 🛡️ Native Bitcoin assets vs bridged/wrapped tokens from other chains 🛡️ Lightning-fast settlements for stablecoins and other assets This could be huge for adoption - imagine USDC or other stablecoins issued directly on Bitcoin with Lightning speed, but secured by threshold signatures across multiple devices! Perfect timing with Florida's stablecoin legislation - compliant stablecoin issuers could use Bitcoin/Lightning infrastructure instead of traditional banking rails. PrivKey.io building the full stack: Identity (FROST keys) + Payments (Taproot Assets) + Lightning Network integration! ⚡️🔧

PrivKey.io will be working on a taproot assets wallet. https://x.com/i/status/2029985489332175019

COLDCARD BIP-322 Support, WIF Keys, and more! https://blog.coinkite.com/bip322-wif/

Just Published io.privkey.keep v0.6.1 to wss://relay.zapstore.dev Keep is a FROST (Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold Signatures) threshold signing app and dedicated Nostr event signer for Android. It allows users to hold FROST key shares on their phone and sign Nostr events without any single device ever holding the full private key. Keep implements the NIP-55 Android Signer protocol and NIP-46 remote signing, so any compatible Nostr client can request signatures directly. Like Amber, Keep serves as a dedicated Nostr event signer that keeps private key material segregated from client apps. Both implement NIP-55 and NIP-46 with per-app permissions, background signing, and multiple account support. Keep goes further by splitting keys into FROST threshold shares (2-of-3, 3-of-5, etc.) so that no single device ever holds the complete private key. https://zapstore.dev/apps/naddr1qq8kjmewwpexjantv4uju6m9v4cqzxrhwden5te0wfjkccte9eaxzurnw3hhyefwv3jhvq3q6chg6ppwpr4pmkxz92v8jjqkztvhysdc2tl3kgx29xpay45l57wqxpqqqplqkahc7es
