When the threshold of 55% blocks signaling for bip110 in a single window (2016 blocks) has not been reached, any block that is not signaling for BIP110 after August 1st will be rejected by the activation client, basically splitting themself of, or even coming to a complete halt if there's no hashpower. Looking at the node counts and virtue signaling on X, this is going to be interesting to watch.https://github.com/dathonohm/bitcoin/commit/10bb4479dff1b9cb833795df5e6fab27c71def6d#diff-97c3a52bc5fad452d82670a7fd291800bae20c7bc35bb82686c2c0a4ea7b5b98R4652UPDATES/RELEASESPhoenixd Dashboard: New Analytics Page- https://x.com/_miguelmedeiros/status/2013989529196060902Bithypha: New auto-analysis - display all taint paths between transactions, clusters, and addresses.- https://x.com/bithypha/status/2014650957611561356Envoy 2.2.1: Prime Connectivity- https://x.com/FOUNDATIONdvcs/status/2014679768365482491MyNymBox- DNS Management and Client Portal Merged (https://x.com/mynymbox/status/2015141559239356477)- New Docs Site (https://docs.mynymbox.io/)- Tons of New Templates (https://mynymbox.io/apptemplates)Clawdbot: The New AI Frenzy- https://x.com/damianplayer/status/2015105669620269373MapleAI: Connect Your Clawdbot- https://x.com/marksuman/status/2015653223504269602Crypto Privacy Tracker: Tracking private cryptocurrency value across coins and protocols- https://x.com/cryptoprvcy/status/2014439254592462999Peach: BTC Payserver Plugin- https://x.com/peachbitcoin/status/2015791375854321702Zeus: Adds Stealth Mode- https://x.com/ZeusLN/status/2015782022439190639EDUCATIONEscape the Technocracy: 3D Printing for Radicals Course- https://escapethetechnocracy.com/product-3d-printing-video-course/Cryptography Mathematics Course by Fundamentals ( https://cryptography-xi.vercel.app/)Sparrow Wallet Course by Fundamentals (https://sparrow-deploy.vercel.app/)HELP GET SAMOURAI A PARDONSIGN THE PETITION ----> https://www.change.org/p/stand-up-for-freedom-pardon-the-innocent-coders-jailed-for-building-privacy-tools DONATE TO THE FAMILIES ----> https://www.givesendgo.com/billandkeonneSUPPORT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ---> https://billandkeonne.org/VALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME STICKERS @ https://www.ungovernablemisfits.com/shop/FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today’s tech conglomerates.

  • Closed AI Is the New Censorship | The Confab 27: Marks

    Closed AI Is the New Censorship | The Confab 27: Marks
    Jan 26 2026
    In this Confab, Max sits down with Marks from Maple AI for a candid dive into privacy-first AI and how it intersects with the Bitcoin and Monero worlds many of us live in. They explore his journey from Apple’s AI/ML and product-launch trenches to Mutiny Wallet and now Maple, a secure, confidential-computing alternative to mainstream AI assistants. Marks shares how lawyers, accountants, therapists, and privacy-conscious users are adopting Maple to protect client data while still getting powerful AI assistance, and we unpack why closed AIs can shape narratives through hidden prompts, profiling, and subtle persuasion—especially in future crisis scenarios.Max and Marks also look ahead: open-source and local AI, encrypted enclaves, and the path to personal “Jarvis” agents with strong memory and on-device sovereignty. From live translation and wearables to body-language detection, they consider the benefits and risks—and how cryptographic identity, consent-based data sharing, and verifiable systems could keep humans in control. Marks points listeners to his essay “The Free Thought Manifesto” at https://aiwithconfidence.org for a deeper read on censorship risks and the importance of verifiable AI.

    No Price, Just Privacy | MONERO MONTHLY 13: Riccardo Spagni
    Jan 19 2026
    In our first live Monero Monthly, Max and Seth are joined by Riccardo “fluffypony” Spagni for a candid tour through Monero’s origin story and culture. Riccardo dives into the chaotic Bytecoin days, how a secret fork birthed Monero after a contentious merge-mining push, and why missing comments, odd code obfuscations, and a deliberately crippled miner set off everyone’s spidey senses.Riccardo shares the serendipitous formation of the Monero Research Lab—hiring Sarang and Surae via a Reddit post—and a hilarious Utah road-trip mishap that bonded early contributors. They also explore how Monero’s antifragile culture emerged from a strict no-price-talk ethos, pseudonymous contribution, and a relentless focus on usable privacy that’s helped real people in difficult situations.They close with reflections on delistings, decentralised access, level-headed responses to network “attacks,” and how Tari aims to provide privacy-first smart contracts without compromising Monero’s design. Listener Q&A covers delistings pushing P2P adoption, cultural decisions that made Monero durable, handling selfish-mining FUD, practical privacy in tightening EU regs, and what Tari brings to the table.

    In this special series, Max shares why we’re hosting and preserving the Unbounded archive at Ungovernable Misfits, and kick off a re-release series with Q (BTC QnA) — a renowned educator at the forefront of no-KYC Bitcoin, self-custody, and radical privacy.

    TBD and Q dig into the real stakes of “being your own bank”: practical, failure-resistant self-custody; why panic is the enemy; and how to build muscle memory through small, repeatable drills. Q lays out a sober threat model, arguing the biggest risk is often the user, not the thief and stresses keeping setups simple until your skills grow. They also unpack the Samourai/Whirlpool fallout, the cultural slide from sovereignty to speculation, and why node ownership, recovery competence, and careful passphrase handling matter more than ever.

    TBD and Q explore financial sovereignty as resilient wealth storage, borderless portability, and the freedom to transact — benefits unlocked only through true self-custody. Q shares red lines around KYC and custodial products, assesses today’s privacy toolkit (JoinMarket, self-custodial Lightning, Ashigaru), and outlines a pragmatic stack for intermediate users, including running your own node and choosing tools that match your abilities. They close with what’s coming from Foundation — the open-source Passport Prime designed to secure your entire digital life — and where to follow Q’s work and education.

    Stay resilient, and enjoy the series as we continue with Diverter, Seth, Pavel, and Colonial in the weeks ahead.
