Hello World,

What?

I would love if Bitcoin developers would celebrate a 'Bitcoin Privacy week =
or month' once in an year. Not sure about the dates. Enthusiasm can be simi=
lar to Valentines week or Secret Santa week but Seriousness should be like =
Wikileaks or Human Rights Foundation.

Why?

I am not sure if we need reasons, charts, etc. to discuss privacy and make =
all users aware of things involved. People consider privacy issues as somet=
hing that can be ignored, for me they are same as security issues and very =
important in network like Bitcoin. Most of the people may still ignore it c=
onsidering the feedback on few issues related to privacy in past. Although =
we can still try and its a new day. Not giving up is what makes the differe=
nce in the end.

Also I would like to clarify, there are lot of positives and people that ha=
ve contributed a lot to improve privacy in Bitcoin but they will never get =
similar appreciation as compared to few others because of different reasons=
 which I don't want to discuss here and one of them is decentralization.=C2=
=A0 Don't want to mention names but there have been influencers in past who=
 are followed by lot of people for their thoughts on privacy but a normal B=
itcoin Core Contributor with less than 1000 followers and lot of work that =
improved privacy in Bitcoin is ignored.

This is a speech from an Indian web series which only people who know Hindi=
 would understand:=C2=A0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DztBfQU41s-o

TL;DR:=C2=A0
This guy was not allowed to talk about his product
He still argued that he cannot talk about the product but still talk about =
something in 5 minutes.
He says nobody cares about "What", they are interested in "Why"
He is scared and feels like a contestant in reality show in which he can't =
even perform.
Most important thing: Never give up
Mentors, Angel Investors etc. are external things that you don't control, w=
hat you can do is prove things with your work.
He couldn't sell his product so he sold himself.
I will keep trying to improve privacy or talk about it when I cannot code i=
n few things. Request other developers to help.
How?

Share 1 issue from repository of any Bitcoin project related to privacy and=
 your thoughts.
Share 1 pull request
Share anything else that you think may help improve things related to priva=
cy
Mailing list or Twitter or something else? I am not sure.

Is this off topic? If yes, apologize and maybe request same people on other=
 channels.=C2=A0
