Sure! First you have to download the Drivechain Launcher from:

https://releases.drivechain.info

It will be the file that says drivechain-launcher-latest

Choose your OS (you need Linux or Linux VM for zSide)

Extract and enter all the folders, and then make drivechain_launcher-linux-1.2.0.x86_64 executable

Download and run mainchain at the top, wait for it to sync, and then get an address under Receive

We are not using testnet ( @Jameson Lopp broke it), so it will look like a regular Bitcoin address that starts with a 1

This is signet Bitcoin being sent from my computer to someone else. I can send some to you too.

It is pegged into a zCash sidechain, with all the privacy features of zCash.

Except it’s not zCash. It’s Bitcoin.

There is a zcash sidechain ready to be deployed on Bitcoin. In fact, with drivechains Bitcoin will always have the latest privacy tech the moment it’s discovered.

Maybe you think better solutions will be built. Cool, build those. We are running out of time.

Zcash scales even worse than Monero and drivechain doesn't fix it.

- As I said, Roger may be the biggest liar in Bitcoin and using this message to scam and enrich himself, but at least his "lies" promote self custody and privacy. Saying "we need to change Bitcoin in order to scale and destroy central banks" is far better than "never change Bitcoin because it doesn’t need to scale or compete with the dollar". This is actually what Saylor says.

- there are many things wrong with Lightning. Fiatjaf talks about it often. Even its most vocal proponents are finally admitting it was WAY overhyped.

- MSTR is a stock, but because of its association with Bitcoin, it is being promoted like an affinity scam

- I agree Monero is a shitcoin. Unfortunately, Saylor and Todd say if we want privacy, then we should use Monero. That’s not what I want. I want to use Bitcoin.

- BlockStream raising $21 million is funny to me, because @npub1nevse... raised $3 million, and that is supposed to be suspicious. The tech behind Monero is not shitcoinery at all. It’s something Satoshi talked about, and probably invented.

Ver and Sailor are just egos. The pair of them could disappear tomorrow and Bitcoin wouldn't suffer. Lightning is a work in progress. It's okay to criticise it. It's not okay to suggest that it doesn't work when it's used constantly, day after day after day. Microstrategy is going to come back to...

Hmm, sounds like…

- Peter McCormack and other Bitcoin influencers shilling scams they fell for

- the Lightning network

- Bitcoiners promoting #MSTR like it’s more ethical and decentralized than Ethereum

- Michael Saylor and Peter Todd promoting shitcoins like Monero because "Bitcoin doesn’t need to upset regulators"

- BlockStream getting $21 million VC money to create sidechains, and giving us a multisig shitcoin instead
