Let there be DarkFi and Anonymity (Interview with Amir Taaki)


While I was in Lisbon a few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to meet in person and interview Amir Taaki (@Narodism), one of the first Bitcoin core developers. For a long time Amir has been involved in left wing activism including volunteering in Rojava and is a big digital privacy advocate. At Liscon, Amir also presented his latest project called DarkFi, an anonymous DeFi network.

During the interview we spoke about his thoughts on the current state of the left and crypto, why he believes anonymity to be fundamental to democratic organizing, and what DarkFi plans to achieve. You can also see his talk and demo of DarkFi at Liscon here.
