PP Present & Future

Guatemala city, 30.1.2020

#1 Disillusionment

Liberation movement always was/is/will be a minority thing

Democratic system based on the majority of votes cannot provide us more freedom or lead to a more free society

#2 Paradigm clash

Clash of centralized and decentralized paradigm:
We cannot use the rules of centralized paradigm to embrace decentralized paradigm.

It doesn't make sense and it always cripples new technology.

#3 Prepare for the worst

• The authoritative government will survive in the following 20 years and will be even more authoritative 
  • KYC v5 - ban of truly anonymous cryptocurrencies at exchanges
  • EET, eKasa shit
• The people using crypto technologies and crypto markets (trying to avoid the state rules) will be criminalized
  • there will be many exemplary lawsuits against many innocent people (Ross Ulbricht, ..)
• Despite the precedents like Ross Ulbricht's case,
  politicians cannot win their fight; they HAVE TO ADAPT to the crypto-anarchy / free-market rules
  • but this may be very painful - a lot of innocent people will be sacrificed during this battle.

#4 Hope

But we have a global Internet community connecting millions of different people with the same taste:

Taste for Freedom

#5 Build

Let's build & connect the global freedom-minded community!

#8 Expansion

Potential cities with crypto-anarchist communities:

• Kosice
• Panama City
• LA
• Santa Marta / Bogota
• Sarajevo
• London (fail?)

#9 Vision

• Become firstly Central-European, later global "crypto liberation think-tank" promoting freedom and privacy using crypto technologies (= Central European EFF)
• Become a safe haven for people who want to opt-out of the system (building & promoting of TAZ)
• Be technologically & personally better prepared for state infiltration (improve ostracism)
• Be an umbrella framework (providing space, people, technology) for any compatible freedom organisations 
• Fight for financial privacy (against KYC/AML, ban of truly anonymous cryptocurrencies)

#10 Parallel Polis 3.0

• 1978-* Parallel Polis 1.0 (decentralized movement in disidents' flats)
• 2014-2025 Parallel Polis 2.0 (physical places in multiple cities)
• 2025-* Parallel Polis 3.0 (virtual reality)

#11 Be strong

• Be aware of massive asymmetry between the government and individual
• It is hard to protect your privacy in the real world (physical security is the weakest point of most digital privacy people!)
• Most government attacks against crypto anarchy will use social engineering, few of them using 0-day exploits, the least will be against crypto
• They can always destroy you / compromise you if they want and have a budget
• Avoid the system, be agorist
• Do not be personal, do not create enemies
