How and why does #Bitcoin have an embedded Order 66 (Clone Protocol 66, was a top secret order identifying all Jedi as traitors to the Galactic Republic and, therefore, subject to summary execution by the Grand Army of the Republic) within it?

Here's my open-ended thread on it:
Bitcoin and blockchain aren't new, it's built on a foundation of decades of work done by other computer scientists. Which David Chaum's 1982 paper, "Computer Systems Established, Maintained, and Trusted by Mutually Suspicious Groups" proves.

His 1988 article, "The Dining Cryptographers Problem:
Unconditional Sender and Recipient Untraceability" discusses anonymous payments, by none other than the NSA and some practical considerations about authentication with an untraceable system.

Jump forward a decade and you have not only a fully functioning system by which these transactions can be processed and ledgered, the internet, you have the NSA's research division saying the same thing except specifically connected to electronic cash.

A great thread to read through and use when and as you have time to help shed more light on some of the history of BTC. https://twitter.com/dickcata/status/1279716435082842113?s=20
