spoke with @Cointelegraph last week about Arbitrum's responsive gas pricing upgrade my take: it optimizes a fee market that is structurally trending to zero as L2 scaling improves the more useful question isn't "how do we price gas better" but "is gas the right primitive for L2s at all?" gas on blockchains conflate two functions that should be separated: metering (measuring resource consumption) and access control (preventing spam) responsive pricing improves metering, but it doesn't rethink access control this is what we're working on with @StatusL2: we replace gas fees entirely with reputation-based execution users transact for free, with throughput quotas tied to each account's reputation score (Karma) spam protection is enforced cryptographically through Rate Limiting Nullifiers (RLN), which use zero-knowledge proofs to enforce rate limits without exposing compliant user activity article below mainnet soon karma counts.

@BeldexCoin technically have “security” without privacy but you cannot have "real privacy" without security

Does privacy create security? Or is security what protects privacy?

The world NEEDS privacy.

@Pirat_Nation Centralization works… until it really doesn’t

Russia's attempted to block VPNs to censor social media but triggered a widespread outage at major banks , where apps and card payments failed nationwide.

Privacy = Freedom from being profiled Privacy = Freedom from being predicted Privacy = Freedom from being manipulated your data is sold → analysed → used to influence you Privacy = Taking back the control

Don't be a fool this April It's time to take privacy seriously...

Take back control → status.app

Every app you use lives on someone else’s computer they call it “The Cloud” your chats, photos, data and secrets all sitting on servers you don’t control

A self-custodial wallet that lives where your conversations happen. Send, receive, swap, and track your portfolio without leaving the app

Access requires ID! that’s the first step toward mass surveillance

@nym that’s the first step toward mass surveillance

Age verification is a backdoor VPN ban.

@redpillb0t Perfect setup… until they correlate everything outside the VPN 👀

The FBI is monitoring my internet activity so I set my VPN to Epstein's island so they don't care what I do.

Most apps connect to services you don’t even know about Status now lets you turn all of that OFF introducing Isolation Mode → run Status fully sandboxed, no third-party connections
