Cryptographic Anarchy: (Mis)Adventures in Crypto

The content of this blog is exclusively to do with online privacy/security, cryptography and cryptocurrency: Understanding it, investing in it, mining it (in groups/crowds), developing/programming it, the social problems it aims to solve and the various ways to make more of it (or not, as various losses and failures happen). Let's get away from banksters, Capitalists and fiat, to an unbanked anarcho-syndicalist commune. || Banner image: Blogger's own.


What is Crypto Staking and why should you care?

4 Jul 2023 6 minute read 0 comments Great White Snark

Someone recently admitted to me that they don't know what staking is or how to go about it. I found that rather surprising, given that I assumed everyone in the cryptosphere already knew. So, for those of you whom somehow managed to miss that particu...

A while ago (maybe a year or more), I created a Proton wallet and joined the FreeOS project's mailing list. I think there was supposed to be an airdrop in the pipeline, supposedly going to happen at some unspecified point in the future when I joined....

What is BULB App and Why Should You Care?

26 Jun 2023 3 minute read 4 comments Great White Snark

A while ago, I was going on about pay-to-earn blogging sites (like Pub0x), particularly how I'm not earning from Medium/Vocal (because Stripe is racist). Somebody (I think CryptoNewbieMom, IIRC) suggested to me that I should investigate/try BULB App....

Signs that a Crypto Earning App/Game is Probably a Scam

25 Jun 2023 3 minute read 3 comments Great White Snark

If you're like me, then you are frequently looking for a few legitimate ways to earn as much extra crypto as you possibly can (rather than many ways to earn a little). At some point (possibly by following shortlinks from legitimate and paying faucets...

Please follow the Chat Rules. Who, me? Not on your miserable life!

14 Jun 2023 2 minute read 2 comments Great White Snark

Ah, the inexperienced young fools let me back into the chat room on TipNano already, which was their mistake. I learned long ago that if I'm going to ban/block/mute someone even once, for even the slightest infraction, they must stay that way permane...

The Fountain of Goofs

Greetings, ye degens of the cryptosphere! I hope that you are having a splendid day, despite ongoing SEC vs Crypto shenanigans. Within the last two days, I've signed up to fountain.fm (again) to give a second chance to earning sats (on the Lightning...

Won't Someone please think of the goddamn fucking children?

Warning: If you don't like swearing, you should move on now (and fucking quickly, at that). This post deliberately contains an excess of it, in order to be provocative and make a goddamn fucking point! Thanks, SatoshiFailed, for the suggestion that s...

There are some things that money just can't buy. For everything else, there's a crypto credit card.

A lady friend of mine sends me motivational quotes almost every day, to keep me inspired and positive until my financial/work situation is better (and also to remind me that there are still people whom care about me, sespite all the crap treatment I'...

Today, I received an email from the Luno exchange, which I sometimes use for receiving and exchanging Bitcoin Cash (BCH) on the rare occasions when I receive it, like I did today. Here's the content of the "announcement/update" email I received: "Th...

"I think drugs have done some good things for us. I really do."

5 Jun 2023 4 minute read 2 comments Great White Snark

Life goes on and I have nothing much to report (except that like Bill Hicks, I definitely think drugs have done some good things for us, or at least my earnings in Nano today, anyway). Life is exhausting. It's just one long hustle to get who knows wh...
