    There's nothing else in the digital currency space like the cryptographic technique underlying #Zcash. It's a moonshot: risky, but certain to change everything if it succeeds.https://twitter.com/rhhackett/status/942798551905656835 …

        Looks like you missed Decentralised Bitcoin/Zcash/Komodo Shuffler called #Jumblr by @KomodoPlatform https://github.com/SuperNETorg/komodo/wiki/JUMBLR-Whitepaper … It's working and present in GUI (Agama Wallet) to end users right now. 🙂

        Maybe you also missed the latest @BarterDex atomic swaps Decentralised Exchange to look at. It's coded first, and then made its whitepaper. C code: https://github.com/jl777/SuperNET/tree/spvdex/iguana/exchanges … raw draft of Whitepaper: https://github.com/SuperNETorg/komodo/wiki/barterDEX-Whitepaper-v2 … GUI:https://github.com/komodoPlatform/BarterDEX/ …

        I bet what if you liked #Zcash, you will like more in @KomodoPlatform even more. It adds solutions to zk-SNARK tech. If you could find some time, please read the whitepapers. :) I really hope you find this info useful.

        And by the way, I think we can successfully make Zcash too traceable for criminals like WannaCry, but still completely private & fungible. …

        I do believe that @zcashco has tremendous potential to evolve society. What happens when transactions are both fast and private? Seems like a minor thing but it could collapse many existing artificial boundaries. @zooko.

        Considering @zooko made it clear he thinks "we can successfully make Zcash too traceable for criminals", you should be the last person to be excited about zcash given your (past) criminal charges. [1/2]

        Id like you to write about that zooko, because that has shot your credibility about zcash being anon. If you can elaborate on your point i & many others would be interested in hearing it. How can zcash be anon yet you can still track criminals?

        Zooko, the amount of people ive seen talk about that tweet with no context is huge, i dont know the context and im genuinely interested. I'd think it imperative you give clarity via a statement so people can refer people or understand your position if out of context.

        Are you serious? Stop pushing linkable currency. Monero is the only privacy-oriented cryptocurrency out there.

        Thoughts on Monero? Sure ZK snarks are cool, but didn't zcash create the keys themselves?
