When it comes to privacy and accountability, people always demand the former for themselves and the latter for everyone else. - David Brin

📉 The one trend that has sustained since the dawn of the internet age, is that governments have repeatedly failed in implementing stern privacy protection for their people. The lesson? Take matters into your own hands. Stop outsourcing the safety of your data. Use Navcoin.

We know the answer. Do you? 🫣

Privacy on Bitcoin is prohibitively expensive ATM 😬 Re-ran the numbers from my old "Comparing Private Spends" blog post, and at a generously low 150sats/vb it would cost you $93.85 to take a coin, make it private, and spend it. Note that this isn't just about Ordinals causing…

Comfort breeds complacency, and complacency breeds contempt. Don't be fooled by the slogan and the smooth interface. Most projects don't want you to look under the hood to see how they really operate. And by the time your suspicions are confirmed, it's too late..

💬 Web2 saw companies recognizing the value of turning our online behavior into a commodity. This behavioral surplus, coined by Shoshana Zuboff, has been bought and sold over the years, yielding profits exclusively for the private companies involved.

One: They're not spying on "Apple & Google," they're spying on 𝐲𝐨𝐮. Two: It's not just the DOJ, or even the US. Foreign countries are also demanding your info. Now ask yourself: why haven't Apple/Google begun blinding themselves to this data? This is privacy-hostile design.

Surveillance turns a society antisocial. It leads to censorship, mistrust, and stagnation. For true societal development and growth, individuals need a supportive environment with their privacy and autonomy respected. Freedom fosters flourishing. 👥

Do you want to put your gains to work? Add them to a staking pool or run your own Navcoin node. Here's how in our ultimate guide to staking 🌱

Privacy coins are not the devil’s work, as governments and regulators would like to make you believe. They are what cryptocurrencies should be all about: A private, anonymous means of payment. Privacy is a fundamental human right, and we are fighting for it!

At this point, are you even surprised anon?

November is out 💬📰 There are those focused on trading and those focused on the tech. The past month has likely brought a lot of joy to the former, yet it is those who focus on the technology’s long-term success that have the most to gain. Full story 👇

Bear market? We build. Bull market? We build. We will never stop building - we are on a mission. If you are interested in PriFi projects, you should have us on your radar!

If you are interested in PriFi, make sure to follow the @PriFiSyndicate The PFS is a non-profit organisation by @Navcoin & @lunarpunksquad ; bundling the forces of different PriFi teams/communities & fighting for financial privacy.

💬 A common logical fallacy is that transparency ends where privacy begins. The truth is, transparency builds trust, while privacy safeguards autonomy. It's not a trade-off; it's a synergy that lays the foundation for a healthy financial system that respects individual freedoms.

We do not want to live in a world in which all our transactions are monitored and eventually evaluated; which is the reason for us to build alternatives in the form of privacy-technology, i.e. privacy-enhanced Proof-of-Stake. It allows anyone to use NAV as an anonymous means…

'Why would I need privacy?' 'Do you shit with doors open?'

So riddle me this 🤔 We've created crypto as an alternative to government money. We wanted decentralized, censorship resistant, untraceable transactions. Yet, how come the vast majority of protocols don't prioritize privacy as an essential feature?
