My partner used to work at Nortel (before they blew themselves up) and any tech that went to the US had to have a back door in it which went to homeland security or somesuch agency.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 92%. (I'm a bot)

The NSA has long sought agreements with technology companies under which they would build special access for the spy agency into their products, according to disclosures by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden and reporting by Reuters and others.

Three former senior intelligence agency figures told Reuters that the NSA now requires that before a back door is sought, the agency must weigh the potential fallout and arrange for some kind of warning if the back door gets discovered and manipulated by adversaries.

Defenders of strong encryption say the NSA's sometimes-botched efforts to install back doors in commercial products show the dangers of such requirements.

Juniper has never identified the customer who requested it use the flawed Dual EC encryption standard or the hackers who exploited it. But two people familiar with the case told Reuters that investigators concluded the Chinese government was behind it.

1

concerned_future 1 h ago

So basically the US complaint about China and Huawei is "we do this, so others must"?

In at least one instance, a foreign adversary was able to take advantage of a back door invented by U.S. intelligence, according to Juniper Networks Inc, which said in 2015 its equipment had been compromised. In a previously unreported statement to members of Congress in July seen by Reuters, Juniper said an unnamed national government had converted the mechanism first created by the NSA. The NSA told Wyden staffers in 2018 that there was a “lessons learned” report about the Juniper incident and others, according to Wyden spokesman Keith Chu.

“NSA now asserts that it cannot locate this document,” Chu told Reuters.

Payments need to be p2p. This is why crypto was invented. Its very easy for merchants to put up QR codes at the till. No need for third party intermediary to pay fees too (crypto exchanges will become the new banks then so if thats what you want then sure, use their easy peasy convenient cards).

Every transaction being a taxable event is untenable. This product looks trash but if enough people use it it puts pressure on the IRS and Congress to come up with a solution. Or maybe a technological solution is possible.

But I for one welcome more pressure to make this happen.

Groty Ethereum fan 1 year ago

IRS funding continues to drop through the floor. Their investigations into blatant massive tax evading individuals have been hamstrung by constant budget cuts. Any new policies in this environment are a pipe dream. Especially if you're looking to a bunch of boomers and 80 year olds in Congress that don't understand the fundamental concepts of mobile computing.

ROGER_CHOCS 1 year ago

People spending crypto will **never** be enough to pressure the IRS or congress or anyone who matters to anything. They are the last people to challenge the status quo, the last people to want *any form* of transparency. The name of the game is fraud, even at the highest levels of corporate America. A blockchain, a real blockchain set up (not shitcoins like facebook/telegram/jp morgan coin) directly flies in the face of this. Corporate America, and the government, they could give two fucks about consumers. [Our capitalism is really a ponzi scheme](https://www.hussmanfunds.com/comment/mc180604/), and no one wants that to end, including investors and even employees. Its going to take a complete rewrite, *fuck* trying to convince the people in charge, I guarantee you that is going to be a losing proposition. This change is going to *have to be* forced through. It will never happen willingly, at least not until more people understand what the tech could really deliver and start demanding it out of our politicians. The real turning point will be when so many people have mining rigs they can start walking away from their jobs. That is the real promise, unbossing the bossed and gaining real freedom, everything else is a distraction that benefits the current lever pullers of power.

These cards aren't good for crypto. You have to be signed up for Coinbase. Meaning your transactions can now be tracked. Meaning you've already given up your privacy via KYC/AML. The convenience people think they're getting here is an illusion. They're being held hostage to the same system crypto was mean't to be an alternative to.

Get it straight. There's no genuine "decentralization" if your use of crypto can be surveilled and controlled by states and corporations. You have no real freedom. You can only do what some external authority deems acceptable, which places us right back into the same place we were in before we had crypto.

Stop shilling all this centralized institutional garbage to pump your bags.

ROGER_CHOCS 1 year ago

I bet if each card came with a little, low power node that you hooked up and it actually generated you money you could exchange on coinbase, then this would be a lot more cool. The greatest thing about crypto isnt banking the unbanked, or decentralization, or even freedom from censorship and surveillance. Its about *generating income from computations*. If your project isn't generating income for node operators, its useless. I feel like this is the one area that has been forgotten about in the crypto space.

In the early bull runs, Bitcoin turned individuals into millionaires and billionaires.

The next bull run is going to turn companies into trillionaires. All Microstrategy has to do is hold their Bitcoin to 100k and they'll have 10x more equity than Visa and Mastercard combined.

If you're a small restaurant chain and put all your cash reserves into BTC, it'll generate far more value than opening new locations across the country. Arguably with a lot less risk, especially during a pandemic.

It would be smart to take profit but keep the initial investment worth of bitcoin. Hence when it goes higher they can profit again and again and if it goes down they can buy back at lower prices. At these numbers (tens to hundreds of millions of USD) you can't really do much wrong.

So bitcoin is no different from the rest then? If that’s the case what’s the advantage of using bitcoin over fiat currency?? At least with cash it doesn’t fluctuate in your hand, imagine having a £10 note in your hand one minute and then next minute it’s either £5 or £15.. it’s not stable. I’m invested in it I’m just still trying to make sense how people realistically believe it’s the next currency. I’m open to being convinced.

And then suddenly one of the machines mines last block reward. Dark, deep voice pierces emptiness of the space - "IT IS DONE!". A new universe emerges! A true purpose of blockchain. Random numbers, not understood by human beings, who thought - "these are just random numbers to store our transactions" - were in fact a DNA of a new world, carefully chosen by Logos. Once density of information hit the critical mass it started a chain reaction. Now information is self-replicating, according to formulas unwittingly forged by zillions of ASICs. In this turmoil, some still working computer deciphers a message hidden in the genesis block, which reads: "I told you this technology is only the beginning - Satoshi".

The original ones only used the rainbow colors but drew a straight line in a log chart which doesn't make sense (since you would end up with very high number pretty fast). This one uses a logarithmic regression (ELI5: a curve aka rainbow) that fits to the historical prices. This chart is going strong since a couple of years. Not investment advice and everyone should know, that the rainbow chart price "prediction" works only until it doesn't anymore. Fun fact: The rainbow charts "predicts" almost the same prices as the Stock2Flow Analysis which came way later: [https://digitalik.net/btc/](https://digitalik.net/btc/)

It was a random redditor in bitcoinmarkets daily thread that started it and would update it daily, it gave us hopium and something cool to look at. Hes gone but the meme was powerful enough to continue

3x is believable and is an attractive return to a crypto skeptic; if you flat out say “we’re gonna be tearing up the moon with the boys in space-lambos by 2030” you’re not going to get the institutional investment community to be onboard with you.

I think it's a case of the mainstream institutions waking up because of corona. Remember, so much has happened this year and that's before you take into account the macro situation we are currently in of end of credit cycle.

Possibly. But I think at this point there's a chance the train is leaving the station. Sell at your own risk at this point.

Does this mean we should sell then?

No, it means its value is going to go way higher than 3X, and it isnt overbought like JPMorgan claims
