Anyone platform which upholds freedom of speech is censored by (((the powers that be))). There are two avenues to this - withdraw or threaten to withdraw payment channels unless censorship demands are met, i.e. gab removing posts from Patrick Little. Fiat channels are gatewayed and to use them is to be at the mercy of paypal, VISA, the banks, and governments.
The solution? Use cryptocurrency - specifically DAI. DAI provides all of the benefits of BTC while maintaining price parity with the US dollar. Each DAI is backed by ETH collateral sitting in a smart contract and stays stable even if the collateral does not (the particular ways it accomplishes this will not be explained here, but you can check the price history if you don't believe the system works). It does NOT use a bank & has ZERO counterparty risk.
It is NOT private, but zk (zero knowledge) DAI has been successfully implemented so things may change in the future. DAI can be sold for ETH and then XMR and then USD, so it can be extracted back into USD privately to meet any real world obligations.
The other avenue is to cut hosting entirely. I think this is a secondary issue as even gab, piratebay somehow manage to stay online, with occasional interruptions. The solution here is to put the service on something like a TOR hidden service or to distribute the contents between the users (like ZeroNet).
you're a fucking genius mate, the great thinker of this era not like we didn't hear this idea since cryptokikery was invented
Robert Barnes
How are you planning on cashing out without involving a bank or lender at any point?
John Watson
Sorry for the double post. The system was stuck when I posted it the first time so I resubmitted. I added a little more info on the 2ndpost. This one has the comments so mods please remove the other.
nobody has tried using dai or a stablecoin
you can take the donated DAI and acquire ETH by closing underwater CDPs (No KYC, No counterparty risk). Then you swap for XMR on an exchange like Bisq.
If the zk-dai thing comes to fruition, then the above won't be necessary. There's probably other ways to do it that I'm not thinking of.
If you think you can get away with it, sell the DAI for ETH and then XMR on a regular exchange.
You can sell the XMR for BTC or ETH and then cash out that. It doesn't matter if you use a bank at this point because the source of funds are protected. Just say you're a trader and do all the KYC you want.
Michael Stewart
Also, a word of advice on Localbitcoins / Localmonero - just don't. You are immediately suspect if you do this. Even if the person you're selling to is just a regular guy and not working for a three letter agency, he's going to get curious about your business especially if you're a repeat customer. Cody Wilson went to jail for fucking a 16 year old prostitute who cried rape (read: she didn't like his political views). By using the banks (privately), nobody is going to ask any questions unless you're selling $10,000+ at a time. Use XMR to conceal and then blend in.
If you can buy something with crypto, do it. Luckily the merchants which support crypto are more likely to carry what you need for a digital operations (hardware, hosting, etc). Even if it means paying a premium over the dollar price you should do it.
Samuel Cook
dont use botnet services and software is the easiest way
Accepting crypto currency is only feasible if you remain anonymous yourself, because if you don't then any exchange will just ban you as a person. You can accept all the anonymous shit you want, but if your name and face are plastered behind your championing of free-speech, you're a leper. You'd have to have a trusted friend exchange the coins into fiat for you.
Levi Baker
Running a free speech website isn't illegal if you live in a free county. But this is nevertheless concerning. This system is not built around freedom.
of course
although that would help, if you (as the receiver of the payments) are anonymous then you don't need a trusted friend as there should be no connecting the dots between your real life and digital identiy.
Jayden Morales
oh, so you are just a shill? I see go fuck yourself
Ayden Reyes
I'm a shill for a coin that is literally stable in value?
Jason Hernandez
So you re-affirm that you're a shill? Good boi, who is a good boi? *pats head*
Camden Bennett
Not affirming anything, just pointing out how ridiculous it sounds to be a shill for something that cannot make money.
News flash: you can introduce something cool without being a shill
David James
nice damage control shill. Buy the kikes already won. We are just in the process of laying down and rotting away as everything gets taken from us. We are pathetic and impotent, they are Gods.
Because to actually explain how to the MKR system works would take thousands of words. I can give you a start.
I can give you a start. MKR is a decentralized lending system, you put up collateral (ETH) in a CDP (collateralized debt position) and get a loan in DAI. You can spend the DAI on anything. If you use it to buy ETH you have what is effectively a margin long in ETH. To get your collateral back you must only pay back the loan. If the value of the collateral increases, then nothing happens because every DAI is stil backed by at least 1 USD of ETH. If the value of the collateral falls too much, the ETH will be liquidated at a 3% discount for DAI. This ensures that all outstanding DAI is backed by sufficient ETH. If the price of ETH falls too quickly and the collateral cannot be sold in time, this gets into another security mechanism involving PETH (pooled ethereum). There is also another token called MKR which plays its own role in the system.
But none of this is important because you don't have to actually open a CDP to own DAI.

Wait, does clover turn (((Jewish things))) green now?
Why tf would anyone use this random shitcoin when Monero has an actual research community behind it?

William Rodriguez
The best way not to get beaten up by Black people is to not walk up to Black youths and start yelling "N*gger" at them. Likewise, the best way to fight back against deplatforming is to change your political beliefs such that they're in line with the political beliefs that are considered acceptable and uncontroversial by Silicon Valley. The advice here is that "If you're on the losing side, you can either keep losing, or you can be smart and switch over to the winning side."
Carson James
All "stablecoins" have the weakness of breaking peg when the underlying collateral crashes faster than the unwinding of the least collateralized margin positions. BitShares has been having this problem as of late.
Bentley Ramirez
but the winning side keeps changing, Soygon, Juden Peterstein and etc are leftist, they're just not left enough for silicon valley. It was pretty fun to see the left keep cannibalizing each other for not being cuck enough. Even white homos are getting shit on now, it's absolutely beautiful to watch.
Meanwhile if alternatives do succeed, everyone on the "wrong" side could benefit too. It's a win-win for everyone.
what the fuck are you talking about? getting kicked from paypal? literally just use bitcoin, paypal is fucking trash
Jonathan Johnson
The best way to avoid getting raped is to not dress like a slut.
Jordan Bailey
Yes ... this is a DIA shill thread. Thanks for coming
Eli Allen
Who said your political orientation needs to be static? It's like fashion, you can either keep up with what's trendy and acceptable or be an outcast. At least put up a leftist facade in your public web presence while maintaining your true beliefs at the polling both.
>spread your ass wide open for the (((authorities))), goy! You don't need that "privacy" thingy anyway gno
Bentley Parker
So I've heard I can get exchange BTC to fiat on 7-11 I think it is feasible. My problem is I wanna be a content provider but I don't want anyone getting my full Address and Name on checkout. How can I avoid the VISA botnet? Are there much more better platforms to transact to (also the people who would like to transact with me should easily be able to do it with just their VISA shit or whatever they have)
Nathaniel Mitchell
Don't confuse a flaw in how Bitshares works with a general purpose flaw of all stablecoins. DAI has backup mechanisms to deal with the exact problem that you have described, which is why it's peg has not broken.
Noah Watson
I look forward for selling my DAI for the exact same amount I payed for them.
Why is Zig Forums so fucking autistic as soon as you mention any cryptocurrency? Can't you talk about something without being a shill?
Joshua Sullivan
Create your own platforms, it doesn't cost too much and the software is already written and maintained for you, just configure it a bit and voila you got a platform.
Jace Davis
this is a thread about receiving online payments. BTC works perfectly fine for that. just withdraw it right away
fuck your stupid platforms
Henry Martin
Freedom of speech is supposedly guaranteed only by the government. I don't agree with what these companies are doing, but I'm not a slave to them either. If you don't like what you see, cut them off from your life. It's the best you can do.
James Price
Is dwolla any good? They're one of the few that allow person to person transactions, which was the only thing that ever made paypal a thing aside from ebays adoption.
Ethan Flores
>tfw I fucked (((Paypal))) out of thousands of dollardoos.
Jaxon Jackson
Might as well take a pound of flesh on your way out. Unsecured debt should be a motherfucker for these "woke" companies.
Jacob Green
Yeah except that analogy doesn't work here and you're just disingenuous. Remember Gawker? Does that look like winning? Pathetic.
There's no guarantee, just like how you fill in fake info on your facebook profile they could still trace you with enough data. Now the metadata is already there, they're just waiting for a better AI to sort out all the wrong thinker in disguise and mark them so they couldn't even buy a loaf of bread in a cashless society. So there's no point in even pretend to be a pseudo leftist anymore.
Dylan Rogers
ONLY WEAK NIGGER-LEVEL IQ DEGENERATE 'MOVEMENTS' MADE OF PATHETIC OBESE BASEMENT DWELLERS ARE HELD BACK BY DEPLATFORMING
Adolf, we're throwing you in jail TO DEPLATFORM YOU
Same problem, because "stablecoins" has no theoretical basis AT ALL.
Too many conjob (or worse kikejobs) in the crypto scene.
Seig Heil, use crypto
Elijah Edwards
You can't come up with a more pajeet sounding ticker if you tried. DAI reeks of curry.
Cooper Diaz
Out of all the GNU projects with misguided goals, GNU Taler is the worst. This whole crypto-currency thing doesn't work with massive centralized servers, and it certainly doesn't work with shit like this
Frankly, Taler is so harmful that crypto-currency advocates should just not donate to GNU.
Carter Hall
It's about more than the money. The money is an issue, and yes, using privacy-centric crypto, and handling it yourself (no big exchange to censor you) is the key. The other issue is the platform. Pretty much we need to take "muh dark webs" and take all of the interesting cool stuff there, by default. Normalize a decentralized, privacy-centric web 3.0 ( or have we moved to 4.0? I don't keep up with synergistigly emerging buzzwords on the bluetooth-enabled IoT ;) )
Brody Reed
Why not Zig Forumsarize it? Get GabFags to start using alternatives much like BitChute and Pawoo and Minds and Voat and the rest?
Charles Turner
Kill jewes.
Brody Lopez
Its a Jew vs Jew world user, a couple of the high ranking Jews have to get mad at other Jews for treating the Goyim badly.
Then, THEN we will have places to go when deplatformed.
