🚩 David Sacks & Jason Say Anthropic’s Call for AI Regulation Could Kneecap Their Open Source Competition
“It's not good enough for them just to win in the free market. They're calling on the government to … limit the number of models that you have access to.”
The @HRF just announced 10 new grants from its AI for Individual Rights Fund, and some of these projects are exactly what the intersection of Bitcoin, AI, and freedom tech should look like.
The Ark: An AI assistant in East Africa where users pay per query with bitcoin over Lightning. No credit cards, no Western bank accounts, no subscriptions. Just sats for service.
Freedom Skills: A repository of pre-written code that teaches AI agents to use Bitcoin for uncensorable payments and Nostr for censorship-resistant communication. Giving dissidents agents that can transact and coordinate without centralized services.
Open Anonymity Project: A VPN for AI inference. Users can query ChatGPT or Claude anonymously so authoritarian regimes can't compel providers to hand over their data.
0xSero: Compressing state-of-the-art LLMs to run locally on laptops and phones. Private, offline AI for people living under surveillance states.
Maple AI: End-to-end encrypted AI assistant. No data stored, no data exposed.
The Human Rights Foundation is supporting AI for sovereignty instead of surveillance.

bitcoin needs you.
don't listen to the slackers who believe that we all just need to kick back and enjoy watching this project succeed – without doing any actual work.
One of the coolest things this year at @TheBitcoinConf was seeing the hunger people have for hands on education and personal responsibility.
Our team with @theBTCmentor was a little tucked away in the open source area, but people found us, flooded in, filled the seats, lined
My father uses Venmo.
He would never use a privacy coin wallet that asks him to pick a node or copy a seed into a notepad.
That's the bar.
If a normal person can’t open the app and send money in 30 seconds, we’ve lost.
This Saturday, April 25th, bring your friends and family to The Space for our What is Money and Bitcoin 101 training series! You don't want to continue to be the awkward Bitcoin guy at your family functions, do you? If not, then this is a great place to have your loved ones
