"Who sent you this money?" In private crypto, the honest answer has always been: I can't prove it. On this @RoundtableSpace, @MehowHacks broke down how we solve it: every private transaction carries a zero-knowledge proof of sender. The recipient can cryptographically verify where the money came from, without either side going public. That one primitive does a lot of work: → Proof of source of funds that holds up to scrutiny → Address poisoning caught before it costs you → Laundering patterns flagged, without surveillance of everyone else And here's the part TradFi should sit with: viewing keys show you a wallet, not the history of the funds in it. A cryptographic proof of sender is stronger evidence than most banks can produce. Privacy from observers. Proof between parties. That's the whole design.

The proposed fix for the ~7M quantum-vulnerable BTC is to freeze it. @MehowHacks answer at @SALTConference: don't. Build migration that still works after Q-Day, and nobody has to take anybody's coins.

Two thirds of all crypto is exposed to this. If your public key has ever touched a chain, a large enough quantum computer can work backwards to your private key and spend what's left. On Solana, nobody even has to go looking, every address is a public key, sitting there in the open. @MehowHacks at the @SALTConference on the problem the industry keeps deferring.

The industry is debating whether to freeze Satoshi's wallets before quantum computers can crack them. That's the wrong question. What we should be asking is, why aren't wallets quantum-resistant by default? @MehowHacks will be talking about exactly that at the @SALTConference in Wyoming. See you there.

Every proposed answer to quantum risk so far has asked the same thing of you: move your coins. Millions of holders, custodians, ETFs and treasuries, all migrating to new addresses before a deadline nobody can name. That's not a solution, it's a systemic event with a countdown on it. @MehowHacks at BASS @Stanford on why we built the version where you do nothing at all.

The Litecoin ecosystem now has its own identity layer. Claim your @name.lite One name replaces every address you’d otherwise copy, paste, and triple-check: → Patented Send-to-Name™ - no address poisoning → One-time stealth address for every pair of users - no public wallet exposure → Quantum-resistant cryptography - built into system Get yours using the link below.

The average user has 1 wallet they consider "their main one." That wallet has been doxxed to: — their cex — their dex — their friends — their browser — their isp — anyone who paid for the data The headstone is already engraved.

Quantum computers will eventually be able to drain any wallet whose public key has been exposed on-chain. That's basically everyone. We just filed the patent to fix it and raised $8M to make sure it gets built. Quantum-resistant transaction signing, embedded directly into our Send-to-Name™ infrastructure, so every transaction is protected before the threat arrives, not after. AmericanFortress™ is the first naming and privacy layer to get here, and we're just getting started. Check out the news on @Investingcom below.

Your wallet address is a liability. Your FortressName is the fix.

Those last 42-60 characters of your wallet address? They’re basically your crypto tattoo. Everyone sees it. Tracks it. Profiles it. Swap them for a FortressName.

Phishing does not begin with a fake link. It begins with visibility. If attackers can see your wallet, study your behavior, and map your counterparties, the setup already started. AmericanFortress reduces that exposure.

The trap doesn't look like a trap. It looks like a familiar address. It looks like your transaction history. It looks completely normal. Until it isn't.

The dark side isn't crypto. It's transparency without protection. The light? Stealth addresses, verified senders, private receipts.

The best privacy is the kind you don't notice. Type a name. Hit send. It just happens. @MehowHacks breaks down how we built that 👇

You're not listening to enough of the audio—it's a single human ATC error, barring any wild new data. The same controller clears the firetruck straight at JZA646. Get the AI ATC systems in there because they would have caught this. It's like the controller forgot he had another plane coming in after the Southwest that he himself cleared. Here is all the relevant Tower audio that's not omitting the entire error. The tower controller clears JZA646 to land on runway 4 at 21:35:04 (that's 25 seconds into the attached audio). A Southwest plane, SWA3988, lands on 4, and shortly thereafter—at 21:37:02 (nearly 2 minutes later from the initial clearance to land for the Air Canada)—the SAME controller clears the truck onto the same runway that the JZA646 pilots, who are unknowingly in the last 20 seconds of their lives, are landing on. Within seconds he realizes his mistake ("stop, stop"), but it's too late. Horrible loss of life from a single human ATC error. This, however, is not a coordination error, not a problem between Ground and Tower, and not some systemic problem—unless these guys are just overworked—EXCEPT that there's no tech in place to fix this. As a pilot, I hate seeing a situation where ATC kills pilots and passengers. Whether you're a ground vehicle or a plane crossing an active runway, you're always talking to Tower (the aircraft has right of way). In this case, the same controller at Tower. And that controller put the aircraft and the firetruck on the same runway at the exact same time. He sounds pretty relaxed until he realizes his mistake. My only other comment is that it would have been a miracle if the pilots had heard the truck clearance and initiated a go-around themselves. As a pilot, once you get clearance to land, you're so focused on landing that you're not really paying attention to Tower anymore unless they call you directly. The pilots are still listening on Tower frequency and can hear everything Tower is saying, but sadly they didn't notice the controller's mistake—and they lost their lives. More excepted would be the truck crew checking whats coming in on final but that didn't happen either. @elonmusk and @xai Please get the better software in there ASAP. My heart goes out to the crew, the families of the pilots, the passengers, and the controller. I hope everyone in the hospital makes it. Bottom line a chat bot can trivially catch this mistake - let's get the tech in there.
