Last week, Grin didn't have a mobile full node&wallet. The price was $0.25 and falling. This week, Grin++ mobile launched, and $GRIN is $0.55 & climbing fast.
Could it be that Grin++ mobile is so amazing it changed the entire outlook for Grin? Try it out and decide for yourself.
A lot of people ask me what makes $GRIN so special. I usually feed them a line of BS about its fair launch or scalable confidential transactions or something. But those of us closest to the project know the truth... It's that stunning canary yellow.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

The scary part about Anthorpic's Fable nerf is not that it refuses to answer biology or cryptography. It's that it foreshadows what's coming. A world where a couple companies decide what you can and cannot do. They're building a new ruling class and you're not in it...
cash in 2019 was 68% of all payments in europe.
today it's 40%.
the EU is now building a digital euro
to track the rest.
anonymous money is nearly gone
and nobody noticed.
If your favorite software projects have *not* been releasing security patches recently, either the developers are godlike or nobody’s been looking for bugs using AI.
zcash hype boys have been harping for months about bitcoin being broken because in 5 years, if unfixed, an attacker could steal 5% of the supply from satoshi
same zcash hype boys are now yelling “don’t worry about the bug, it’s not infinite inflation, worst case scenario an attacker can steal 25% of the supply from the shielded pool”
you are not serious people
Crypto and privacy coin market update:
$BTC: stuck in the Epstein rabbit hole
$XMR: survives
$ZEC: discovers consequences
$GRIN: accidentally green
Crypto is healing.
From block one, Grin has steadily emitted 1 coin per second. The fairest launch possible: no premine, no ICO, no insider allocations and no early users advantages. The distribution will continue forever, exactly as designed.
@BioTurvaMies@aetherpirate369@monero@VOSTOEMISIO@xenumonero@beamprivacy Reducing complexity minimizes bugs and potential attack vectors. For a system designed strictly as digital money, most features (driven by hype) are simply unnecessary.
That's philosophy of Grin to be a minimalistic implementation of mimblewimble protocol.
I will defend Firefox before I defend Brave. And I do not even use Firefox.
I use Zen. It is not the most private browser on earth, but it is a real improvement over base Firefox and I love using it. If you want Chromium, Helium is great. Ungoogled Chromium is great. There are good options in every direction. Brave is not one of them.
Brave is not a privacy browser. Brave is a crypto scammer company.
Default install today: BAT rewards, Brave Wallet, Leo AI, Brave VPN, Brave News, Brave Talk, Brave Search promos, sponsored new tab page, built-in torrent client. There are entire community projects whose only job is to ship registry scripts that turn this stuff off. Users debloat a "privacy" browser. Read that again.
And the track record is rough.
2020: Brave got caught auto-injecting its own affiliate code into URLs you typed yourself. You typed binance . us, Brave silently rewrote it to binance . us/?ref=35089877. Same for Coinbase, Ledger, Trezor. Brendan Eich defended it first, called it a mistake only after the backlash. Open source did not save anyone here. The code sat in the repo for ten weeks before anyone noticed.
2018: Brave collected BAT "donations" for Tom Scott and other creators who had never signed up, using their names and photos. When Scott asked for the money back, Brave said refunds were impossible.
2021: Brave's built-in Tor mode leaked every . onion address you visited to your regular DNS provider for months. If you used Brave to hide your dark-web activity, your ISP saw all of it. The bug shipped to stable in November 2020 and only got fixed in February 2021 after a researcher went public.
Use what you love. Zen, Librewolf, Mullvad, Helium, Ungoogled Chromium, base Firefox if you want, even Safari. A browser whose business model is shoving shitcoin and a paid VPN at you is not a privacy product. It is an ad-tech company with better marketing.

Before Elon Musk showed interest, Dogecoin had gone mostly dormant, barely any GitHub merges or commits for months. Grin could follow the same path: one day a wealthy man might discover this gem, appreciate its fairness and uniqueness and help bring it back to life.

You start reading weird books.
You buy “The Bitcoin Standard” and then “The Fiat Standard” and then you accidentally end up reading Murray Rothbard, and then somehow you’re reading Mises, and then it’s 11:47 PM on a Tuesday and you’re 340 pages into “Human Action” and you’re highlighting passages about praxeology and your wife comes downstairs and asks if you’re coming to bed and you say “in a minute” but you don’t come to bed for two hours because you have just discovered that everything you were taught about economics in college was wrong, all of it, every single sentence, and now you can’t go back, you can never go back, you have been orange-pilled in a way that goes deeper than money, you have been epistemologically orange-pilled, you now believe that John Maynard Keynes was a charlatan and the gold standard was actually fine and the income tax is theft and you can never say any of this out loud at a dinner party ever again.
