Which current xx network communities are you a member of?
  • Telegram
  • Discord
Are you an active member of those communities? Yes
What specifically, interests you about the xx network platform? non-interference in private life plays an important role in the life of every person, as well as freedom of communication and freedom to dispose of their funds, confidentiality. I see that in this project all this will be realized.

Why do you want to run a node in the xx network
  • To protect the privacy of political speech
  • To protect private personal communication around health and lifestyle issues from mass surveillance and abuse by centralized organizations
  • To promote quantum secure distributed systems
  • To earn xx coins
  • To help build David Chaum's vision of a decentralized world
  • To contribute to a promising project
  • To undo the centralization of the internet by big tech companies
  • To help build true digital cash to fuel a decentralized economy
  • To reverse the political centralization of legal, police, and military organizations which favor the wealthy and powerful
What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? The main difference is how / where the “decision” is made and how the information is distributed among the control nodes in the system. I am on the network as a node deciding on its own behavior, with the resulting behavior of the system being the cumulative response.
As best as you can given currently available information, please describe the value proposition of the xx network platform and how it differs from other current blockchain solutions. An important point here is the creation of a digital space that includes anonymity, confidentiality and security. Also a high-performance, high-speed and scalable network with its own smart cryptocurrency.
Privacy by Default is a goal of the xx network Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? Because in this way each of us will remain individual in space (whether it be a virtual real astral space) and we will be able to exchange experiences in an independent environment, thereby helping each other to evolve in all directions at the same time.
In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? a quantum computer is currently the number one threat for many systems and species of life because it is created for the sake of corporations whose purpose is total control and destruction of individuality in all its manifestations. And all the centralized systems created at the moment are working to please Uncle Sam, and Uncle Sam wants us to be obedient, destroying our true values, killing our memory of who we are and depriving us of everything opportunities to realize our true intentions inherent in each of us by the Creator, without attachment to any religion.
