The CTO of Oxen has answered in my post about Lokinet, $OXEN, SESSION and LLARP

It's quite interesting what he says. He says there is no connection to 8chan/8kun and that $17.000 investment for each onion-routing server is a sensible amount. I don't know what to make of it and the post seemed to not get any attention, that's why I am making a new post for it here EDIT: Changed the link to their post to the lemmy.ml url instead of lemmy.161.social

What's the deal with SESSION, Lokinet, $OXEN and LLARP

[Lokinet](https://lokinet.org/) is a onion-router (like [tor](https://www.torproject.org/), [i2p](https://geti2p.net/en/)) implementation of the [LLARP protocol](https://github.com/oxen-io/loki-network/blob/dev/docs/proto_v0.txt) which tries to be a modern re-implementation of i2p. [Session](https://getsession.org/) is a private messenger (like [Signal](https://signal.org/en/)) built using lokinet to hide metadata. If I understand correctly they have a cryptocurrency called [oxen](https://docs.oxen.io/), which is earned or mined by providing servers to the loki network and oxen blockchain. Imo they have these arguments on their side: - i2p is really slow and if re-implementing yields the results they claim it would be awesome - building a private messenger on top of onion-routing seems like a very good idea, since metadata is the new surveillance while it doesn't generate massive amounts of traffic per user What I worry about: - I don't like cryptocurrencies in general, they haven't yet proven that they can be used as anything but be used to speculate. - if people who are supposed to be the backbone of the onion-routing service are paid to do this I worry that in some (maybe new and still unknown) way this will weaken the network in comparison to a network run by volunteers and users (like tor and i2p). Maybe this will favor larger servers so all of the onion-routing is done in "the cloud" and none from home which in result is easier to surveil. - a talk at the yearly [chaos computer congress](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_Communication_Congress) about the alt-rights online behavior titled "[Let’s play Infokrieg](https://media.ccc.de/v/36c3-10639-let_s_play_infokrieg#l=eng&t=1609)" (the talk is in German, but I linked the version with english live translation) talks about lokinet and how the developer advertised it on 8chan. This is all the connection they mention though and it's pretty thin Imo. - in general I believe that cryptocurrencies don't draw a very good crowd, also - I haven't seen any reputable source advertise any of this. Not Lokinet, not session messenger, of course not their crypto coin... Conclusion: All of this isn't a big problem, if they stay a small project. But them having the fastest onion-router, [elon musk maybe tweeting about them](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1357248331387441153) and people flocking to them to "invest" might have the project gain momentum and them being the new tor or even bigger, applications built on top of it being a threat to signal etc. I think some of their tech is very cool, a fast and modern onion-router could be very important for future secure web applications, but it's troublesome - it's in the hands of people nobody knows - motivated by financial gain - coupled with cryptocurrency What are your thoughts on this? I am really interested to hear, how we should tackle this in your opinion.

Hasan Piker streaming NoPixel GTA V roleplay VOD

www.twitch.tv

It's pretty entertaining I think, takes a little bit of time to understand what's going on but there is are lots of VODs to re watch and he streams >10 hours per day lately. GTA V roleplay is something that I never thought could be interesting, but here we are and it is :D The crazy streaming hours help with boring corona times

Die Scheiss 1000 Artikel über die berliner Popup-Fahrradwege gehen mir auf den Geist

Schon wieder sehe ich einen, hurra, die Fahrradwege dürfen bleiben... Das ist aber sowas von unwichtig, ist einfach nur ein politisches Thema, die AfD natürlich dagegen und die anderen Parteien denken sich sie können sich jetzt schnell Pluspunkte bei der Bürgerin holen wenn sie so tun als wenn hier Fahrradmäßig alles gut läuft. Das gegenteil ist der Fall, Berlin ist eine der schlimmsten Städte zum Fahrradfahren und wird es wohl auch noch eine Weile bleiben. AAAAAaargh warum wird Politik durch die Medien so oberflächlich dargestellt, oder ist Politik wirklich so oberflächlich? Dasselbe mit Corona, die Leute haben langsam von den halbgaren Maßnahmen, die nur den Privatbereich betreffen die Schnauze voll. Falls am Fahrradzustand der Stadt die Konservativen schuld haben, warum rufen die anderen Parteien das dann nicht von allen Dächern, damit wenigstens allen klar wird warum diese Stadt so menschenfeindlich ist.

Man kann auch online bestellen aber im Markt abholen, das geht oft schneller.
