我嘗試將新世代的數位意識形態納入左右派的政治光譜中，並將科技加速主義與資源的集中與分散列入比較，並且以「密碼龐克運動史觀」重新爬梳數位發展脈絡，最後將臺灣與自己的數位自主權納入定位。/1
數位時代的意識形態光譜全文

Japanese Anime style is so cool and impressive 😍
Privacy shouldn't require a second job.
GrayPunk explores how ordinary people can stay safer together, without becoming security experts.
A short film based on the essay by @mashbean .
Japanese narration · English audio available.

Also this thing is done now

My recent piece. GrayPunk puts East Asian conformity, cypherpunk, and “lying flat” (躺平) in one frame.
The cypherpunk paradox is those who defend invisibility must often become visible. d/acc + CROPS push this further. Privacy is strongest when defense becomes collective.
Cypherpunk has a paradox: the people evangelizing privacy tools are the most visible people in the room. To hand out invisibility cloaks, you have to take yours off. New essay from Telescope Editions: GrayPunk, by @mashbean 🧵

CROPS starter kit is here! Curated by @post_polar_
In 2025 @ethereumfndn presented CROPS - set of values behind "infinite garden". Start your personal journey in understanding them right here.
Key concepts
Censorship Resistance: “…centralized actors should not have the power to interfere with any given user's or application's ability to operate” - Make Ethereum Cypherpunk Again.
Open-source: “…trustlessness depends on free open source software — not only code that can be read, but code that can be freely run, verified, and improved” - The Trustless Manifesto.
Privacy: “Ethereum must provide privacy unconditionally, without forcing users to prove their innocence“ - The Ethereum Cypherpunk Manifesto.
Security: "Security requires simplicity, including responsible minimization of lines of code and external dependencies….True security protects both system and users from technical failure, social entrapment, and coercion” - Ethereum Foundation Mandate.

Digital identity is becoming civic infrastructure. The question is what kind. I wrote about the hard road toward a cypherpunk ID.

ETH Taipei is happening today. I couldn’t make it this year, but I did spend some time experimenting with a question I’ve been thinking about for a while: What happens when Taiwan’s Digital Identity Wallet meets the @ethereumfndn privacy ecosystem? /1
pro.mashbean.net/en/?series=…
Fifth: I built a monitoring dashboard for Taiwan’s Digital Identity Wallet ecosystem, covering:
• an Arbitrum-based on-chain trust registry
• an off-chain revocation list
Trying to make the trust layer itself observable, inspectable.

Huge thanks to the @EFNextBillion Fellowship for giving me the room to be ambitious enough to try connecting two large ecosystems: Taiwan’s emerging digital identity infrastructure and Ethereum’s privacy stack.

I am looking for crypto policy people to help with government awareness of ZK tech.
Data leaks have gone too far, the tech to avoid it exists, and we just need to convince regulators to allow it.
Let’s save lives.
Proofs over Passports.
I built Pocket Polis, a Polis-inspired @compdem deliberation tool with zero servers to run. All you need is Cloudflare account and one prompt. Contribution is welcome. Repo is below

We partnered with AMPLIFY Australia to put ⿻ plural tech to the test on one of the most entrenched debates in Australian public life: Sydney's density fight. Beyond NIMBY vs YIMBY, what we found is that even the most engaged partisans hold conditions the other side can meet.

Presentations shouldn’t be one-way broadcasts.
I built Call-in, an open-source layer for live audience feedback for talks and public conversations, with difficulty signals, reactions, and questions. A small piece of digital civic infrastructure.
