We propose a new peer-to-peer electronic market system, which enables censorship-resistant and permissionless trading between users of the global Bitcoin system. This design builds on top of the new Nostr protocol for its peer-to-peer order book and relies on the Bitcoin blockchain as a source of truth for its Web-of-Stakes market ranking paradigm.

Intel BootGuard is a system for controlling what software can run in the early phases of starting an Intel system. Software running at this stage has the highest priviledge and can alter the functioning of an operating system kernel. In a recent breach, keys used by MSI to sign firmware (including UEFI) have leaked. For affected devices, there is no longer a machine-verifiable concept of MSI-released firmware.
