17) About trusted setup: the way they organized/deployed it seemed unprofessional & irresponsible as well. Engagement of people for a potentially safety-critical operation was done on Twitter, no focus at all on personal security, like anonymity vs governments is a game (or
?).

We have to either make STARKs have shorter proof sizes or make Zcash have higher bandwidth. (Or make Bulletproofs have faster verification times or make Zcash verification-time-insensitive.

Do you think it’s reasonable to believe that Zcash can be a massive success with ZKsnarks alone? And separatelt, do you think Zcash can succeed without mandatory privacy? Appreciate your responses tremendously:)! Huge Project Fan.

SNARKs are pretty great, but I don't like the toxic waste problem. But did you mean SNARKs vs. newer crypto tech? Or something else? As for default-on privacy, yes of course we need that!
-
Yeah, is figuring out newer tech (STARKs, Bulletproofs etc.) life-and-death for Zcash? To what extent do you think the system could be successful with SNARKs alone? What do you think will come first, default-on privacy, or a move from SNARKs to newer tech?
-
Eh, I don't know. We already have a plan in motion for default-on privacy: https://blog.z.cash/roadmap-update-2017-12/ … But when exactly it will come to end-users depends on third-party wallet and service providers.

Thank you for your time and your work.
