"In Part 6 of this “Discovering Bitcoin” series, we will build on the idea of using digital puzzles as a way to reproduce scarcity, and on the importance of a supply-control mechanism to grant some hardness to digital money, to explore concepts of proving ownership through signatures and scripts, and the technique known as CoinJoin."  - Giacomo Zucco Find the original article and links to the other great reads in this series at Bitcoin Magazine: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/discovering-bitcoin-part-6-digital-contracts Check out the previous parts if you haven't yet!

"We need to be able to disassociate from our identities to protect ourselves. We need the freedom to selectively reveal ourselves. We need the possibility to rally behind names, symbols, masks, and the ideas they represent — using transient identities and wearing masks ourselves if we have to. If identities are permanent and transparent, rebellion and revolution are impossible." - Gigi A great piece from the epic blog over at Citadel21.com, by none other than Gigi, author of 21 Lessons.
