"Nobody Handed the PIVX Community Its Tone

Kindness in this community is a decision, made again every day."

Zcon7 kicks off in Cancún, and one session asks whether the Cypherpunk Manifesto still matters. “Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age” isn’t nostalgia, it’s a to-do list. Good luck to the Zcash community. PIVX is cheering from the same side.

Cash gave us that by default. Digital money doesn’t. Zero-knowledge proofs close that gap, on PIVX via SHIELD. Which payments of yours would you want only the recipient to see?

Monero: ring signatures, PoW, rough consensus.
PIVX: zk-SNARKs, PoS, on-chain governance.
Both reject VC capture. If cypherpunk means “best available cryptography, power with users,” I think PIVX is the more modern answer. Convince me otherwise.
October 22, 2026 at 2:59 PM
RandomX made mining friendlier, credit where due. But PoS goes further: stake from a laptop, no hardware race, no constant energy burn. PIVX has run PoS since 2016. That’s a decade of battle-testing, not a roadmap slide.

"A $200 dinner, payable only in ZEC, with the word “cypherpunk” on the invitation and Washington at the table. Nobody hid the agenda."

New piece on what the word is being asked to mean now:

Privacy coins shouldn’t fight each other. Surveillance and delistings are the real opponents. But competition is cypherpunk too: may the best cryptography win. PIVX bets on SNARKs + PoS + DAO. What’s Monero’s strongest counter?
October 22, 2026 at 3:00 PM
Monero deserves respect: no VCs, privacy by default, a decade of community work. Genuinely cypherpunk. But cypherpunks write code that moves forward. Here’s why I think PIVX is the next step. 🧵
October 22, 2026 at 2:58 PM
Monero’s direction comes from rough consensus among a handful of voices. On PIVX, masternode holders vote on-chain on treasury and roadmap. If you hold the stake, you steer the chain. Which model gives the community more direct influence?
October 22, 2026 at 2:58 PM
"Conflict was guaranteed the moment more than a handful of real humans showed up and started caring about the outcome. The actual question is whether it knows how to fight well. Most don’t. That’s not a PIVX problem. That’s a humans problem wearing PIVX merch."

A decade in crypto without changing your founding thesis and cypherpunk values is unheard of.
PIVX forked from Dash in 2016 to improve privacy + pure PoS harder. And a decade later, same thesis, same chain, and -unlike DASH and Zcash- still what the Cypherpunks had in mind from the beginning.
October 8, 2026 at 10:49 AM
Bitcoin maxis love to say Proof-of-Stake "isn't real crypto." Funny, since the actual cypherpunks wanted tools anyone could run, not an energy arms race that favors whoever has the cheapest electricity.
PIVX has always been built for efficiency: you could stake on your household laptop since 2016.

Unpopular opinion: most "privacy coins" aren't cypherpunk projects anymore. They dropped their pants to VC-backed companies wearing a cypherpunk aesthetic.

PIVX has no ICO, no VC round, no foundation CEO. Just a DAO. That's the real cypherpunk ethos, alive. Since 2016.

Change my mind.

"PIVX occupies a genuinely unique position in the privacy coin space. No other project combines zero-knowledge proof privacy with proof-of-stake yield in a way that keeps the staked balance hidden."

Zcash is a corporate VC trap and PIVX is the cypherpunk PoS alternative.

I had a chat with LUMO AI yesterday, about the degrading dedication to the cypherpunk values, that once led to the creation of Bitcoin and later Zcash.
Today, the crypto space has mostly been captured ny venture capitalists and greed.
But one coin still sticks to those values: PIVX 💜

Surprise, they've become exit liquidity for the Zcash venture capitalists.
Zcash like Bitcoin has become unfaithful to the original cypherpunk values. There's only one coin left that's truly cypherpunk and that's PIVX.

"Wherever it becomes technically cheap to monitor some part of ordinary life, something eventually gets built to monitor it, under whatever justification happens to be available that year, and once it’s built, it tends to keep running long after anyone stops asking why."
