You'll need:
- @brave
- @ProtonVPN
- A locally hosted bitcoin full node (nice to have)
- ~$250 in #Bitcoin (it doesn't matter if you KYC'ed yourself to get it)
- @wasabiwallet or a Bitcoin Mixer

Step 1: Download the @brave browser, launch it, and open up a "New private window with Tor". Use Tor for all future interactions until your VPN is up and running, or use both together.

Step 2a: Go to www.proton.me and make an account. You can use a throwaway email account from https://www.guerrillamail.com/ if required to register with an existing email account. Make sure to use a moniker & password you never use anywhere.

Step 2b: Download @ProtonVPN to your machine, launch it, login with the created account. Why use ProtonVPN? They provide a no-logging VPN for free, and they allow you to pay in #BTC for their service.

https://proton.me/pricing

Step 3a: Obtain around $250 in #Bitcoin. It doesn't matter how you get it or if you had to KYC yourself to get it. So, get it from your favorite exchange, or through an on ramping platform and send it to any wallet.

Step 4a (optional): Download @wasabiwallet, create a new wallet, and connect it to a locally hosted #Bitcoin full node. Why a local node? It provides privacy. Why Wasabi? They offer CoinJoin for free. Send your #BTC to your new Wasabi wallet and wait for them to be CoinJoined.



What is CoinJoin? It is a privacy solution that allows multiple #Bitcoin users to combine their coins into one transaction, making it harder for outside observers to determine who sent the Bitcoins or where they were being sent.

Step 4b: Wasabi may take a while to CoinJoin and protect your tokens, so alternatively, you can use a coinjoin/mixing tool for a small fee, like UniJoin.io or Sinbad.io.

Step 5: Once your tokens are in Wasabi (and CoinJoined) or once you've decided to use a mixer, you can then send your tokens to your anonymous @ProtonVPN / @ProtonMail account with the specific Proton-custodied #Bitcoin address generated for you: https://proton.me/support/pay-with-bitcoin

Step 6: You will receive an email in your @ProtonMail account once you the CoinJoined tokens arrive at your Proton-custodied #Bitcoin wallet, at which point they'll convert it to credits, which you can then apply towards their premium service without every KYC'ing yourself.

And just like that, you now can be fully anonymous on the web via a no-logging VPN, paid for with #Bitcoin. The $250 amount should pay for transaction fees, coinjoin fees, and get you a 2 year subscription.

How do i know this works? Because I did it to prove out the concept.]]> RQG2xSH thread false null https://typefully.com/ArtSabintsev/pokt-token-burning-begins-jwQ4rFW Soon @POKTnetwork will begin burning $POKT tokens. Per the promises outlined by Pocket Network Inc.

Per the promises outlined by Pocket Network Inc. (PNI) and the our Foundation (PNF) in the forum announcement last week (https://forum.pokt.network/t/the-road-to-revenue-accelerating-progress-towards-our-north-star/4384/3?u=artsabintsev), I have just now remitted 193,923.35 POKT tokens to the DAO treasury for burning.

The amount came from the following calculation performed by @JackALaing, the Executive Director of the Foundation, using public data from @POKTscan.



Within the next 24 hours, @JackALaing will publish a proposal regarding the burn process and related parameter changes. Assuming no major objections from the community, the proposal will be put up for a vote on May 8th. If it passes the DAO vote, it will be adopted on May 15th.

As PNI will be remitting tokens to the DAO treasury every week, there will be three weeks' worth of tokens accumulated for burning. The tokens will be promptly burned at that point.

We will provide more updates as decisions are made, but all of us at PNI and PNF are very excited to begin executing this process.]]> jwQ4rFW thread false null https://typefully.com/ArtSabintsev/the-future-of-of-web3-is-multi-chain-CCNkLMb The future is multi-chain and @POKTnetwork will underpin ALL of it.

Massive thanks to @nnxnft on helping make it happen by selling me an NFT I've wanted for my wife for ~5 months.





In my mind, and the mind of others, @doodles is the #web3 Disney while @_Goldenwolf_, the animation studio they acquired, is the #web3 Pixar. Look no further then the recent Doodles #Stoodio release trailer to see why:

https://twitter.com/doodles/status/1652028295117172736

Both brands have artistic elements that are simple, iconic, and memorable.





Disney is known for being family friendly. @Doodles should be as well. My toddler-aged kids laugh at my "rainbow throw-up" hat. My wife, a clinical child psychologist, wants to author a book using the artwork from the Doodle we procured last night.

While Disney has decades of content and real life experiences behind them, they also have created a playbook that @doodles is following, but with a modern twist. They're adding ownership and digital experiences to the mix. @doodles is obvious. @doodles is inevitable.



The team has also proven out 2 theses by using @flow_blockchain for #doodles2 #stoodio:

1. #web3 is multi-chain, something we @POKTnetwork believe as well as it's a core thesis of ours.
2. They are resolute on onboarding #web2. Doodles is for everyone, just like Disney.



To say I am bullish is an understatement. I own merch, 2 doods, 2 doops, burned 5 boxes, attended #DoodlePutt in Miami. I even won tickets to #SITW, but couldn't go, so I gave it to @LunarDoodle's wife and am living vicariously through pictures.





I believe @burnttoast, @jholguin, @poopie, @ingi_erlingsson, etc. know what' they're doing. Slowly but surely, they'll accomplish the vision set out on their #DoodleMAP



The #Stoodio experience was fun and quirky, which is exactly what I expected from a @doodles beta release.

Following in the immortal words of @ingi_erlingsson: Doodles me vs. Doodles 2 me:

Every ~2 years, I wipe out my entire Twitter history. As I grow older and hopefully wiser, my opinions evolve and interests change. Twitter has been a vital part of my life for ~16 years, so this is my way of hitting the reset button. It's cathartic.

The last 3 jobs I've had, including my current one @POKTNetwork are all thanks to individuals I met on Twitter, so I consider this tool, and what I share on here, to be incredibly important to my personal growth and success.

With this latest "tabula rasa" moment, I aim to spend my time on this platform sharing and amplifying my current interests and convictions, which are namely around...

#Bitcoin's inevitability as the predominant store of value. #Ethereum's inevitability as the technology underpinning and facilitating the next iteration of the internet/#web3. @POKTnetwork's inevitability as the base layer protocol powering all #web3 infrastructure, and...

Two NFT projects that I believe will both be the early winners in this space for very different reasons: @OthersideMeta and @Doodles.

I will extrapolate on all of these beliefs in different threads that I plan to write and by amplifying those whose opinions I value.

Finally, I strongly believe that Consensus Reality is on its deathbed, if not already dead. The rise of AI has hastened its demise. That is why I consider #crypto & #blockchain tech crucial in distinguishing fact from fiction. I intend to explore this matter on here as well.

In summary: #Bitcoin, #Ethereum 🦇🔊, #POKTNetwork 🐙, #Doodles 🤮 🌈, #Otherside 🐵, and #AI 🤖.

Thanks to all of you who have followed me on this amazing platform over the years! I'm very excited to continue engaging with everyone on these topics! 🙌]]> x0Vmetv thread false null
