Papers Please!

Keir Starmer wants to ban children from social media, and he's promising it as a gift ; more childhood, more safety, more freedom to grow up. What he isn't saying is that the only way to enforce a ban on some users is to identify all of them, which means the actual product on offer isn't child protection but a national identity checkpoint wearing a parenting costume, built one biometric scan and one device-level filter at a time. This is the oldest move in the state's playbook: when confronted with a technology it can't yet control, slap a permission slip on it, and call the leash a seatbelt

Capital Destruction Is The New Business Model

Today's $1.75 trillion SpaceX IPO isn't just the largest in history, but it may be the clearest signal yet that American capital markets have become completely detached from the profit-and-loss system that's supposed to govern them. So before you pile your savings or pension into this IPO, ask yourself: if AI is a "national security priority" and your subscription doesn't cover the real cost, who's actually footing the bill and who's the real customer being served?

The Fiat Casino: How Stock Markets Serve as Nodes in the Monetary Control System

As SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic prepare to dump nearly $4 trillion in combined valuation onto public markets, the question is no longer whether these companies are "good investments," but whether the entire concept of stock ownership, as currently constructed, still means what you think it means. What if the real choice on the table isn't between AI and Bitcoin, growth and value, or risk-on and risk-off; but between holding a security entitlement that evaporates the moment the system convulses, and holding the only asset in human history that no central bank, broker, or bankruptcy court can ever take from you?

Building the Parallel Economy

Praxeology joins cypherpunk cryptography: privacy is a fact of action, a defensible norm, and a buildable property under pressure.

The Last Honest Block

Four mining pools control two-thirds of Bitcoin's hashrate. Behind each one sits a publicly traded corporation with shareholders to appease, regulators to placate, and a board of directors one bad quarter away from pivoting to AI, as Bitfarms already has. This is about who gets to produce money, who gets to secure the network, and whether Bitcoin remains a peer-to-peer system built by individuals or becomes yet another financial infrastructure owned by institutions too large to fail and too regulated to resist.
