2/ After the initial research, writing 2 papers and giving 2 talks at #hcpp19 (linked in subsequent tweets), we realized the best way for now is to develop an MVP app with no inherent business model. The app will be open sourced and free for anyone to use and iterate on.
3/ For ~12 months now, we've researched the possibility to bring #DeFi use cases to Bitcoin. This means the ability to lend, borrow and leverage trade (BTC & synthetic assets) without compromising on self-custody & privacy. We believe this can be done with Bitcoin today.

1/9 Cryptoanarchy is the realization of anarchy (as in "no ruler/coercion") by means of cryptography, it undermines observation and attribution, and is ultimately subversive.

Technologies of non-attribution, untraceability, opaqueness and confidentiality are its political tools.
