Amir Taaki was one of Bitcoins first-ever dedicated developers and perhaps the one most infamously focused on maintaining privacy and freedom from authority.

In 2014, Forbes listed Taaki on its 30 Under 30 list of technology stars for creating Dark Wallet, the first privacy-focused Bitcoin wallet to include a CoinJoin mixer. That same year, Taaki received even more notoriety as Dark Wallet was twice named in the Financial Action Task Forces (FATF) report on the potential money-laundering and terrorist-financing risks posed by cryptocurrencies.

In 2015, Taaki traveled to Rojava, Syria, to serve with the YPG Military, a component of the Syrian Democratic Forces fighting the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). After months of fighting on the front, he spent more than a year working with Rojavas economics committee.

Taaki also created Libbitcoin and Bitcoins BIP proposal system as well as DarkMarket, the prototype for what eventually became OpenBazaar, an open-source protocol for e-commerce. Outside of his development work, Taaki also founded the anarchist group UnSystem, which included Cody Wilson, creator of a 3D-printable gun, and Mihai Alisie, co-founder of Bitcoin Magazine and Ethereum.

Now, Taaki has returned as a contributor to multiple projects, many of which have not yet been revealed to the public. Although he is not ready to completely reveal his hand, the dissident technologist expressed a strong appreciation for the people in the crypto community, as well as a loss of confidence in its leadership and overarching direction.

For Taaki, what became a lifelong dedication to building technology free from authoritarian intervention started with an interest in what draws many people to Bitcoin: the promise of open-source development for breaking from authority.

I happened to be 16 when I discovered the open-source movement, which, for me, was absolutely incredible that there are people around the world who build this technology which plays a foundational role in our infrastructure and our internet, Taaki told Bitcoin Magazine. I kind of decided, Im going to devote my life to make this dream happen. And it was something that captured my mind for the next decade.

From his open-source involvement, Taaki found other technologists who were deeply concerned with politics. Of the many ideologies he was exposed to, he found anarchy especially interesting. It led him to ask questions about the nature of society and hierarchy and how a richer and more sophisticated society could be created. He saw Bitcoin as an unstoppable force to this end.

[At] my first talk about Bitcoin in Amsterdam, it was the EPCA conference I said, look guys, this is a radical technology. Now were here, you cant stop us, Taaki recalled. This is what were going to do for you.

Sometimes, his strong anti-middleman stance put him in direct conflict with other early Bitcoin developers another group he saw as a roadblock to free and open development as he defined it.

Gavin Andressen reached out to me and said, I didnt really like how you were talking at the conference. I think you should stop talking about Bitcoin publicly, Taaki said. Gavin preceded to put up roadblocks for me to participate in developing Bitcoin to sideline me from Bitcoin. Every time I tried to commit code to the Bitcoin Core project, it was blocked and I realized it was impossible for me to work with those people. Thats why I started working on Libbitcoin, to rewrite Bitcoin source code to have alternative implementation.

Taakis work on the BIP review system was originally intended to establish some standardization for implementations and public review of changes to the code. But he now sees the system as a hindrance on development in Bitcoin that favors the status quo over technological progress.

The problem is that the culture we initiated in those early days has completely overtaken the mindspace of Bitcoin, explained Taaki. That was not the original intent. Originally, the intent was to have Bitcoin be a conservative against changes. But it wasnt to stop any kind of progress from happening inside of Bitcoin. Its very poorly engineered. Its very inefficient. The developments in cryptography that are happening now are going to lead to a system thats eventually going to supersede Bitcoin.

Looking back at the Bitcoin community he had been a part of in the early 2010s, Taaki sees distance between the philosophies that first drew him to the technology and the philosophical camps that have been established today.

What weve seen happen since then is that those simplistic ideologies, which initially converged around Bitcoin, havent really been able to guide us, he said. And so weve seen a diversification from these ideologies Theres this weird, regressive or reactionary Bitcoin culture ... and its opposed to any kind of change or progress or development or advancement.

Taaki also noted concerns about the cryptocurrency space he had been a part of years ago now being co-opted by outsiders business- or authority-focused groups who want to take technology out of the hands of the idealistic cypherpunks who worked with Satoshi to usher in the era.

Were in this very strange place inside of crypto culture where were facing significant challenges to the technology, of it being co-opted by external actors, by actors who dont necessarily have a philosophical vision or goal we originally had in mind, he said. Maybe Im talking about people like ConsenSys, or maybe Im talking about central bank digital currencies or Facebook Bottom line: The only way that were going to overcome these challenges is by having coherent analysis, a system of organization and some kind of narrative so that we can develop something thats coordinated.

After leading the technological development and ideological conversation around Bitcoin for nearly five years, Taaki traveled to Rojava, an autonomous region in Northern Syria where forces were trying to build and defend a direct democracy based on Libertarian, socialist and anarchist principles that promoted decentralization, gender equality, environmental sustainability as well as religious, political and cultural tolerance and diversity.

Despite seeking a technology development role, Taaki spent his first year in Rojava serving on the front lines of a war with ISIS.

It was mad, Taaki explained. I was literally shipped to war, handed a kalashnikov as we were driving to the frontlines and told, Dont worry, if youre not dead in two weeks, youll know everything there is to know about fighting in a war. It was a mad time. It was chaos, but I managed to get out of that position after a few months.

Taaki returned to Syria in 2019, this time in a role reviewing technical projects for the region.

I was looking at open-source solutions, like how to build a mobile phone network, he said. I also looked at how we could deploy cryptocurrencies. The so-called leaders I reached out to were very limited in their thinking and did not offer much support Theres so much to consider and if your goal is to create the infrastructure for five million people, its so different from making individual accounts for an app-based marketplace you can download.

If this seems like an opportunity for one of Bitcoins most prominent developers to implement the technology in a region that could clearly benefit from it, Taaki emphasized that it wasnt.

The reality is if any administration in the world were to say that they wanted to deploy Bitcoin in a region of their country, there is no group that has the software infrastructure ready to set up a reliable financial network, Taaki explained. For example, if in Hong Kong, theres a guy who has Bitcoin, he can extend a line of credit to Syria, and he can cash out to a local pool of dollars. Or people in Syria who have assets like oil can issue futures or upper-finance instruments on that asset so that they can get investment to build their infrastructure. Theres a really great application of this technology, but were just not thinking on that level.

Taaki lists oft-lauded use cases in places like Venezuela, Cyprus and Iran as distractions that keep the Bitcoin community from truly preparing the technology to help distressed places around the world before they are too far gone.

Those were lost opportunities, he said. Its sad, thats our failure as a community. And those future opportunities should be what we choose to face and engage in our market so we can develop better technology. But were not doing that right now. Instead, its a bunch of technologists playing around with blockchain technology. I see no practical basis in reality to what were doing right now.

In addition to his work promoting a freer society in Syria, Taaki is establishing an academy in Barcelona that incubates new technology projects and offers training in cryptocurrency development. Hes also working on Nym, which he described as an alternative to Tor. Of course, his mission to strengthen the privacy and freedom from authority inherent in technologies like Bitcoin is an ongoing focus as well.

Im also working on anonymization of cryptocurrencies and products, Taaki said. The same same technology I am building out will be a platform or a library that we can use to build other products like decentralized exchanges, marketplaces and also a generalized platform for issuing anonymous smart contracts and other financial instruments A lot of people are asking for a new release of Dark Wallet, but Im not going to release a bad product. CoinJoin is broken but I will develop something thats better.

Ultimately, Taakis is a working life dedicated to strengthening tools in the hands of dissidents those who seek to communicate and transact without interference from political authorities, who hope to establish a better and freer society.

The legacy of the civilization that we live in is a state-based civilization based off of a hierarchical system of control and specialization of labor, which leads to all of the modern problems we have, Taaki said. We want to create a different kind of society, which is free, where people have liberty and the natural wealth of peoples creative energies is developed and nurtured. The emerging field of cryptography offers us a power that we can use to create new financial instruments and networks that can be used as a tool to stop state power and control, and create space where marginalized communities can operate outside of state control.

Cryptography is a field of information security that is often misunderstood. Although the fundamental principles of algorithms generally stay the same, as infections and attacks evolve so too must these algorithms to maintain the security of confidential information.

Cryptography incorporates three key principles: encryption, integrity, and authentication.

Encryption

To encrypt a file data is converted into an unreadable form, protecting its privacy during storage, transfer and reception. Encrypted data is decrypted via a process known as decryption.

In essence, encryption and decryption require a special key, so that while data appears scrambled, both the sender and the desired recipient can still read and understand it.

Integrity

Cryptography assures message integrity, meaning that messages are accurately communicated and not altered or intercepted en route from the sender to the recipient. This is often achieved by hashing data, or cryptographically mapping out its path.

Maintaining message integrity requires technical skills. It can be accomplished using one of the following three techniques:

Authentication

Authentication is used to verify the senders identity. It consists of a short string of information that is used to confirm that the message originated from the stated sender. Method authentication code systems generally consist of three algorithms:

What Is the Difference Between Asymmetric and Symmetric Cryptography?

With asymmetric cryptography, two different keys are used to encrypt and decrypt the file. All participants in an asymmetric cryptosystem have both a public key and a private key. The public key can be freely distributed, but the private key is kept secret.

Data encrypted using a public key can only be decrypted using a corresponding private key.

With symmetric cryptography, both encryption and decryption are carried out using the same key. The sender and recipient must both already have the shared key.

Symmetric cryptography is generally more suitable for encrypting large amounts of data, since this form tends to be faster. Asymmetric cryptography is only suitable for encrypting files that are smaller than the size of the key, i.e. 2048 bits, or smaller.

The Swiss Government had filed a criminal lawsuit over the United States Central Intelligence Agencys alleged abuse of a cryptography firm to spy on several Governments secret intel and communications, the Swiss Attorney Generals office said in a statement on Sunday, the 1st of March 2020.

Besides, according to the court documents, the criminal complaint was filed against persons of unknown origin who had been allegedly breaching the international law of exports controls. On top of that, latest accusation from the Swiss Government over CIAs abuse of a cryptography firm to execute covert operations on behalf of them followed a similar high-profile lawsuit regarding alleged breach of Government data named as Operation Rubicon dated back to the 2007s, which for decades involved United States CIA and Germanys BND to covertly spying over other nations encrypted messages by utilizing a technology sold by Swiss firm Crypto AG.

Meanwhile, adding that the Swiss Attorney Generals office would review the complaints before proceeding in to criminal jurisdictions, the Attorney Generals office said in its Sundays (March 1st) statement, The Office of the Attorney General confirms it has received a criminal complaint by the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) dated Feb. 2, 2020 regarding possible violations of export control law.

Within a short while, Apples browser Safari will warn users when a website theyre visiting is using a TLS/SSL certificate that is valid for more than 398 days. It doesnt have to be an expired one either. Any certificate that has been valid for more than 398 days since issuing will now be automatically flagged by the browser.

This has come after the 49th CA/Browser Forum in Slovakia, and The Register reported that the goal is plain- ensuring that web developers are using the latest certificates and technology available. Before this came to be, developers were able to assign certificates for multiple years, resulting in using technology that was long out of date.

As reported by an insider, the aim is to improve website security by making sure Deva uses certificates with the latest cryptographic standards and reducing the number of old and outdated certificates that has a high chance of getting stolen and re-used for phishing and drive-by malware attacks. If any miscreant happens to break the cryptography in an SSL/TLS standard, people will be switching over to more secure certificates witn hin a year.

Like any other thing, this is also going to have its set of negative points. According to Tim Callan, who is from the SSL management firm Sectigo, more certificate replacements means more chances of something going wrong.

In a report to The Register, he stated, Companies need to look for automation to assist with certificate deployment, renewal, and lifecycle management to reduce human overhead and the risk of error as the frequency of certificate replacement increases.

As of now, GitHub and Microsoft are using two-year certificates, with microsoft.com set to be renewed in October. If they plan to keep going with their two-year policy, you can expect Safari to tell you that the website isnt secure.

Secure Key Box (SKB) for Web is Intertrusts new enterprise-ready white-box cryptography solution for web applications. It brings the security vendors widely used whiteCryption technology, which prevents attackers from extracting keys using static or dynamic methods, to web and mobile apps. The company is showing off the new product at this years big RSA Conference.

Intertrusts Bill Horne said in a press statement that SKB for Web makes it extremely difficult for an attacker to reverse engineer apps or extract key information even when the Javascript source code of the implementation is available.

Recommended AI News: Domo Wins DEVIES Award For Best Innovation In IoT

The solution prevents attacks because it allows standard cryptographic functions to be performed without the keys ever being exposed whether in use or at rest. SKB for Web also protects keys and credentials from side-channel attacks by making them safe from exploits running within the browser, as well as natively on the PC or device.

According to Horne, the problem is that a lot of people think by using cryptography, they are protecting their applications from rogue actors but theyre merely shifting the problem from the data to the keys themselves.

Secure Key Box for Web prevents hackers from stealing keys from web applications, resisting existing and future side-channel and fault injection attacks with drop-in and go ease that requires no additional operations or protocols.

APIs are being used more and more to interact with apps on the server-side, but browser APIs and third-party cryptographic libraries cannot protect keys from attacks on the underlying host without having access to its hardware security support. Hackers are able to obtain keys through various rogue techniques.

SKB for Web is delivered as a JavaScript consumable API that does all the common cryptographic functions. It protects cryptographic keys even when running on a compromised host. The solution provides stronger and broader protection than low-level interfaces, such as the Web Crypto API, which do not secure against attacks running outside the browser.

Quantum Cryptography Market on the basis of Usability, Technology, Procedure, Application, and Region by (2020-2026) - New Day Live

What is blockchain? Insurance Business sat down with Karim Derrick, head of research and development at Kennedys, to talk about the new cryptography-based piece of technology and learn why, on the whole, larger firms within the insurance space have been hesitant to embrace it.

Kennedys is one of the primary event partners at Insurance Businesss TechFest in May, that will further explore blockchain in the insurtech sphere.

My personal view is that, no, blockchain is not very well understood, Derrick said to Insurance Business. The fact of the matter is that insurance has been, although it is catching up, quite a long way behind the curve on this.

Derrick describes the legacy systems, in terms of technology, that are embedded within large insurers that mean blockchain technology has yet to be embraced as quickly as in other sectors. Similar to legacy airlines, the larger, older companies, for various reasons, have been slower than their smaller, newer counterparts to embrace technology such as blockchain, and wield themselves off well-established but outdated forms of in-house technology.

Derrick explained that large insurers often use technology and database systems that originate from some generations back, and that there remains a lack of general understanding of those databases themselves let alone blockchain.

I dont think that databases are properly understood in the industry, he said. And at the end of the day, blockchain is just a special kind of database.

Read more: Aons latest study examines the "true potential" of blockchain for insurers

Blockchain is described by Blockgeeks as a time-stamped series of immutable records of data that is managed by a cluster of computers not owned by any single entity and each of these blocks of data is secured and bound to each other using cryptographic principles. Effectively it is a new form of database for what is becoming an increasingly new, technology-driven world of work.

Derrick explained to Insurance Business that one explanation for the apparent reluctance to understand and utilise blockchain is to do with its association with bitcoin.

For whatever reason, bitcoin has dominated the headlines and blockchain was the cryptocurrency enabler, Derrick explained. The two have been tied together and there is a circus around it and all the bluster it has created.

But leading insurers would do well, and there have been previous efforts along these lines, to understand the benefits blockchain can bring, and then fully utilise those benefits.

If you think about it, insurance itself has some problems that blockchain can really address, explained Derrick. Fraud is the obvious one because criminals often exploit existing gaps in databases. Blockchain could provide a solution to that with firms being able to manage their own databases without exposing books to anyone, but at the same time still benefiting from the common data system.

Claims going into the blockchain can be maintained by individual insurers and used without necessarily exposing all their claims to other insurers, he said. However, you can still take a new claim from a new claimant and look to see that individuals claim history, etc.

Blockchain provides ample opportunities for insurers to complement and improve their existing operations, and while the technology is straightforward, implementing it has not been.

The technology is simple it really is, Derrick said. Implementing it in areas which have obvious need for it but are well established was always going to be difficult.

Join us to learn more at our TechFest in May at The Fullerton Hotel in Sydney. Registration is still open.
