Naval Ravikant on what he thinks happens if the United States collapses “If the US were to collapse, first of all, I think freedom bleeds out from the rest of the world” “You can already see what's happening in Australia and the UK with the speech laws, the censorship and the weird arrests” “If the US degenerates and falls, it doesn't fail like Europe did” “It fails like a Latin American country fails because it is bordered by Latin America. So you're looking at much more cartel, drugs, crime, violence and those kinds of institutions”

Mert explains why privacy isn't secrecy “Privacy is not secrecy. It is the user having the option and the freedom to disclose their information. If it's mandatory, then it's surveillance. If it's optional, if it's up to the user, then it's freedom” “One good analogy is, you take all sorts of pictures on your phone. Some of those are private. You don't publish all of them on social media but you can publish whatever you want” “You can send messages on Twitter or Facebook or you might send private messages on Signal. Fundamentally, you have to have the choice” “When I pay for a coffee, I don't want my barista knowing I just bought a hair transplant treatment with the same coin" "Privacy is fundamentally about having the option. As long as you have the option, you're in control, it’s up to you what you do with it”

Tushar Jain explains why Zcash represents crypto's original vision “I think a lot of people in the industry lost their direction a little bit. You have to look back at the principles the industry was founded on and it was founded on self-sovereignty” “Now the big thing the industry is saying is, ‘Please regulate us. Please come and issue centralized assets on our chains’” “I think Bitcoin feels pretty captured at this point. It's BlackRock, it's MicroStrategy. It's institutionally captured” “To me, Zcash is the ideals on which the industry was founded”

.mert | helius.dev: “It seems inconsistent on a principles level that Bitcoiners are pissed at Zcash. You had all these literal shitters and scams go up to billions of dollars and they didn’t say anything about those. But the one project where it’s very similar to Bitcoin in its tokenomics and just encrypts it via ZK, and that makes it private—even Hal and Satoshi have quotes about how they wanted to do this—that’s the one project you choose to get angry at?”

. explains his 1000x privacy thesis: “The last 12-13 years, we were working on getting Bitcoin to be legitimized as well as programmability (Ethereum) and scale in blockchains (Solana) to work. Now that those work, there is one thing left that is asymmetric in upside and impact for the entire industry: privacy.”
