DarkFi: Defining The Metaphysics of Markets

Talk is about cyclicality, symmetry and duality of nature

Cosmos

• Cosmos is all there ever is and ever was

• Story of our world

• Galileo Galilei: “The book of nature is written in the language of mathematics”.

  • Why mathematics powerful language describe physical world.
  • Most reasonable answer: because physical world has a mathematical structure.

• The underlying structure of reality

  • platos-rave.jpg
  • The singularity or event horizon, where we cross into the abstract realm

• Reality possesses a geometric hyperstructure

  • Causality imprints a geometric structure on the fabric of spacetime

• Magic is the practice of ritual to manifest supernatural forces.

  • The hyperstructure is supernatural by definition

• Mathematics is often described as the language of nature.

• Cryptography leverages mathematics to create protocols embodying specific properties.

• Therefore crypto-anarchy is invoking the supernatural power of nature in self-defense of society.

  • Calling on Thorth, invoking the moon god

• Assange: “The universe smiles upon encryption”

• Cryptography taps into the hyperstructure.

• Cryptography is god power.

  • When darkfi is doing crypto we are tapping into that eternal god energy to lend us strength in our cause

• Cryptography is spiritual work

• Symmetry and duality abound throughout nature

• Sacred geometry of the torus

  • Tree, which mirrors the human nervous system
  • Universe, galactic halo
  • Atoms enveloped in a toroidal magnetic field

• C/L

• Isomorphism with E

• ECs slightly complicated

• Project problems down onto them (analogy)

• Throughout many areas of math incl crypto

Nature is Cyclic

• Rome glory shone for 1000 years
• Nature abounds with cycles and symmetry, civs rise and fall
• Associated factors with fall of empire
  • undisciplined, over-extended military
  • conspicuous display of wealth
  • massive disparity between rich and poor
  • desire to live off a bloated state
  • obsession with sex
  • bread and circuses
  • debasement of currency
• We all feel within next 5 years
• From the ashes emerges a new order
• DarkFi enabled agora tech
  • We are pure, they are corrupt
  • Crypto fundamentally alters the logic of violence
  • Flows around censorship
  • State extortion is obsolete
  • Coercive state violence vs decentralized = harder to tax
  • Decentralized is dispersed, parallel and immediate vs old sequential
  • Employing decentralized emphemeral agents that continue after your death

Cypherpunk Methodology

• We welcome the herald of a new age and the rise of cypherpunk methodology
• DarkFi
• Algorithmic money > fiat money
• Superior to state methodology
• Police move at the speed of law, we move at the speed of light
  • Code > law
• Modern crypto is a superpower.
  • Explainer here
• ZK contracts on DarkFi
• ZK debugger, zkas stack, python ZK

Full Stack Agorism

• Chat, tasks
• Payments, swaps, DAO
• DHT, DAG
• Prototype: darkpools, escrow, reviews
• = marketplace + more

Punctuated Equillibrium

• “Evolution not revolution man”
• Change is sudden & fast
• Lenin quote
• Complex system builds -> rising complexity -> terminal tipping point -> collapse -> race to occupy niches -> rearrangement followed by stasis
• Rapid change (punctuated) followed by stasis (equillibrium)
  • Example is human evolution
• Role of evolutionary adaptability
  • For example, cats evolve quickly but highly specialist while dogs remain generalist.
  • Configurable DNA, components switch on and off
• DarkFi will have to unfurl like watering a flower. Mini revolutions to adapt, hence we encourage leaders, power and struggle. Not state-slave culture like other projects.

Symmetry & Duality

• Defn of civ from wiki
• Free society vs state society (HCPP quote)
  • See link in our docs
• First and second nature
• Duality is fundamental to nature
• Proof of duality
• Turning of the cycle, Sorokin quote
• Let there be dark
