The first step towards liberation is through the realization of the unfreedom of the status quo. We are born as tax slaves, we are universally discriminated against according to our place of birth, the state brands us, catalogues us, and usurps full control over all our economic activities. Is it possible to leap out of the status quo and gain substantially more economic and personal freedom? Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies represent the most powerful liberalization tools. Thanks to them, we can all be global and flexible. They also make it easier and simpler than ever to 'opt-out' of the system.
In this presentation, we'll discuss real-life scenarios how Hacktrophy helped the customers to reveal serious security vulnerabilities
How and where best to decentralize Putting the “flag theory” into practice is the goal of all permanent travelers to free themselves as much as possible from one system and to have the most pleasant, cheapest, and most importantly, free life without bureaucrats and meaningless obligations.

Why & which VPN
Internetová cenzúra, plošné špehovanie nakupovacích návykov všetkých občanov (e-Kasa), sledovanie a blokovanie finančných tokov, zákaz anonymných SIM a platobných kariet, možnosť štátneho sledovania pohybu obyvateľov pomocou mobilnej triangulácie bez ich súhlasu ako aj bez súdneho príkazu, obmedzenie používania hotovosti a crypto-unfriendly legislatíva, nedostatočne anonymizované informácie o COVID-19 pacientov a štátnej contact-tracing aplikácie "Zostaň doma". Stále si myslíte, že digitálna totalita sa Vás netýka?
The lecture describes the current as well as predicted impacts of crypto-anarchism and the sharing economy on the future of human society. What was the situation in this area during 2013-2020? Where have we moved from now on, and where do we head over the next few years? You will learn about the possibilities of anonymous cryptologists that bring financial freedom, but also about the risks associated with the development of the political situation in the world.

HCPP20 speaker's introduction
Internet censorship, massive financial surveillance (e-Kasa, EET), monitoring and blocking of financial flows, prohibition of anonymous SIM and payment cards, tracking citizens' movement by mobile triangulation without their consent and without court order, cash ban and restrictions of crypto use. Unfriendly legislation, insufficiently anonymized information about COVID-19 patients and the state contact-tracing application "Stay at Home". Do you still think that digital totalitarianism does not concern you?

Crypto Mass - Grand Opening of Parallel Polis in Bratislava 2018.
Despite the fact that random Internet threats caused by various viruses, malware or targeted attackers are well known, most people are not aware of persistent risks enforced by governments and their legislation. The goal of the presentation is to describe these induced threats - massive spying of citizens, global censorship and other potentially dangerous legislation. Revealing an interesting paradox - governments responsible for new privacy legislation (like GDPR) are becoming the most dangerous threat to the privacy of their citizens.
1. Choose the suitable country for your permanent residency. 2. Choose the suitable country for your company. 3. Eliminate the centre of interest in your home country (divorce, sell all your properties, become homeless). 4. Close your bank accounts. 5. Switch to crypto, prefer truly anonymous cryptocurrencies, embrace crypto friendly services. 6. Choose your global healthcare insurance. 7. Choose your world mobile operator. 8. Embrace sharing economy. 9. Check DAO. 10. Help your friends to opt out of the system and move them to a parallel society.
The growing complexity of both hardware and software makes more difficult to detect security vulnerabilities or backdoors than ever before. Critical unexpected vulnerabilities have recently emerged in all-available processors (Meltdown / Specter). Browsers with lots of extensions are becoming the most complex Internet applications on your desktop or smartphone. The current architecture and used programming language make practically impossible to eliminate their hidden and unidentified vulnerabilities. Even the safest hardware wallets contain critical security vulnerabilities. Disk encryption, antivirus or anti-malware solutions running on compromised hardware or software are ineffective. In my presentation, I will try to explain how to survive in this wilderness and use compartmentalization to minimize the impact of unexpected black swans.
Real digital privacy starts with protecting your financial transactions. Leaving no traces. Making impossible to see or intervene your voluntary economic interactions. With the rise of anonymous cryptocurrencies, for the first time in our human history, we can do a global business and stay anonymous. Anonymous prediction markets, anonymous anti-government insurance, anonymous crowdfunded whistleblowing, decentralized cryptomarkets - all these crypto technologies will undermine the current authoritative systems. And make the significant change. Silently. With no violence or politicians. It's time. Liberate yourself.
Pohľad na GDPR z alternatívnej perspektívy, ktorú ste doteraz nevideli a nepočuli.
The lecture describes the current as well as predicted impacts of crypto-anarchism and the shared economy on the future of human society. What was the situation in this area in 2015? Where have we moved from now on, and where do we head over the next few years? You will learn about the possibilities of anonymous cryptologists that bring financial freedom, but also about the risks associated with the development of the political situation in the world.
GDPR from the alternative perspective (you haven't heard or seen before)
From the government-controlled economy to a decentralized peer-to-peer society
The first popular cryptomarket (Silk Road) was of course unique, but relatively simple - a single server with no decentralization, no multi-sig or anonymous cryptocurrency support. The goal of the presentation is to show that government financial dictatorship leads to significant improvement of cryptomarket security. Police and government agency raids were the main reason all cryptomarkets had to improve their overall security to survive and keep their business running. A new generation of cryptomarket uses multi-sig to prevent governments from seizing it's users deposits by utilizing integrated webmail PGP clients, I2P anonymization networks in addition to ""the government well-known"" Tor. They are fully decentralized (e.g. Axis Mundi, Bitmarkets, Shadow Markets), and therefore practically impossible to shut down by government agencies.The new anonymous, untraceable cryptocurrencies (e,g, monero, zcash) are ready for cryptomarket adoption with no possibility of revealing transaction history. The weakest point - cryptocurrency exchanges that governments can regulate and shut down can be reinforced by the use of decentralized crypto exchanges (e.g. bitsquare).
