      "Elixxir"? He used to always name his protocols after his initials ("digital cash", "dining cryptographers", etc.) He was a splendid inspiration and inspiring now again to see him still at work!!!!

          It’s pretty amazing to see a man nearing the twilight of his life come up with an entirely new protocol.

          A few red flags: Cites himself several times but not Satoshi. Calls hash secured tokens unique although exist in Bitcoin and cornerstone in Lightning. Claims that hash secured tokens better than keyed wallets and ignores that pre-images practically generated with master keys.

          Also an entirely dishonest team can stall progress ignoring all transactions. He claims the consensus is not vulnerable to 51% but selection of entirely dishonest team gets more likely with growing proportion of global dishonesty, therefore intuitively think this does not hold.

          Hyper scalable, fast, private, and secure. I think he drank the "elixxir" of money grabs! 😁

          However, he spoke about a new public private key or digital signature system, that would be interesting.

          I skimmed through their white paper. It talks about a new protocol for anonymous transactions, called cMix and I think what he said refers to that b/c of similar statements describing the protocol. I could hardly imagine it being sth new or without a ton of attack vectors :))

          This is my white paper: "My new Donalsius Protocol is infinitely scalable, fast, private, and fully secure. If something goes wrong, then call the cops. Easy." Please send the money here: 34xratatuilleyesbcijdijdnenpoyeye! 😁

          David Chaum would name that with his initials. see cMix = Chaumix So it would be sth like Donalsius Chain protocol ;)))

          Performance seem to be lacking for a real world scenario. Blockchain like Credits does about 1m per second (per their recently published test results)
