Last night we had a nice break from discussing the latest in bitcoin and lightning. Instead, we discussed the cypherpunk manifesto, an important piece of writing from the cypherpunk movement. The cypherpunk movement arguably led to the creation of bitcoin, among other technologies.
Here are some links to things we discussed during the session:
- Cypherpunk Manifesto
- Crypto Anarchist Manifesto
- Cypherpunk’s Distributed Remailer
- Eric Hughes
- Timothy C. May
- John Gilmore
- Cygnus
- The Cluetrain Manifesto
- The Cathedral and the Bazaar
And here’s the cover of Wired Magazine from May 1993.
