>>> TOX Tox is similar project to Briar and Cwtch, but it doesn’t use Tor– it’s just PE. <<< Since the Pentagon probably has a sort of Chainanalysis for TOR by now, I infer TOX developed at least partly in response- Yes? And now more and more can become remailers who even needs TOR? " Everyone a remailer! " Cypherpunks collapse governments. Subject: Everyone a remailer: Everyone a Mint: Everyone an assassin https://marc.info/?l=cypherpunks&m=100872510706876&w=2 Strong-crypto, digital money, anonymous networks, pseudonyms, zero- knowledge proofs, reputations, information-markets, netwar, collapse-of-governments In the developing labyrinth progress will be slower, but sure, toward distributed, P-P, encrypted, alternate OS plug ins that will accomplish all we seek to achieve.

It’s for NeurIPS 2022, upcoming. I’ve been kicking it around in my mind a smidge, and I’m thinking it would just be so useful and likely appreciated for anybody at all to make any implementation at all of this paper, that it would be worth trying to do. The concept of the paper is not complex, but it’s quite hard for me to approach, as usual.

@el33th4xor · 6h Great thread on CEXs versus DEXs and FEXs. Quote Tweet Kevin Sekniqi @kevinsekniqi · 6h The crypto exchange business is becoming increasingly more cutthroat between existing players (DEX and CEX alike). But, there's a new paradigm shift, and it's a brand new kind of exchange. It's called a FEX: a Fully Encrypted Exchange.

[spam] [wrong] [self-obsoleting] A Perfect Cryptographic System
by Undescribed Horrific Abuse, One Victim & Survivor of Many 06 Oct '22

06 Oct '22

I humorously propose a cryptography between human beings based on shared experience alone. The “private key” is the impact of that shared experience on the human heart. In pair with an AI capable of simulating the recipient(s) based on information known about them, one considers a unique experience shared with the recipient(s). Implications, details, and feelings regarding the experience are enumerated until the AI discerns strong enough likelihood that the recipient(s) would find a cryptographically sufficient set of similar ones. The enumerations are compressed into ideas, trigger words, a short stimulating phrase, etc. These are the public key material. They must depend on both parties’ personalities, and also the moment of shared experience. The details considered in the mind of the sender(s) or recipient(s) are the private key material, which are privately extracted by the AI and used as a symmetric key. On receipt, the recipient(s) engage the ideas, trigger words, etc, gently and slowly, calmly thinking of them and feeling around them. An AI watches their mind, looking for private key material. Once sufficient material is found, the message is decrypted. The system may work with a stranger if something important is known about the stranger indicating a need to contact them — and fails if this important thing turns out to be false. There are vulnerabilities that can be addressed by building a respectful society and government if you have one. The AI can be replaced with very extensive practice on the part of the sender, and patient work on the part of the recipient. All early daydream guesses for fun! I believe it is quite implementable. I did not review for vulnerabilities much.
