If your co-op eventually fails maybe because the government valuation was too high and workers quit. tough luck. You don't get the taxes"

"@jgarzik With Core-vs-2X the story isn't two differing opinions on the right way to scale Bitcoin; the real story is one side trying to build a decentralized currency and another side w/ various motivations to make Bitcoin more centralized (who happened to have some incompetent devs)"

"While great that @realjeffq quantified this risk in detail lots of people have been warning that Zcash's failure to mandate private txs as in Monero was obviously dangerous. Zcash seems focused on shiny new math instead of competent engineering - why the trusted setup failed. https://x.com/realjeffq/status/937858617860075520 Today I'm publishing a paper on the linkability of certain types of #Zcash transactions: https://t.co/xB4R4VqrdT Found that 31.5% of all coins sent to z-addrs may be linkable by matching to an identical outgoing transaction. Raw data: https://t.co/C8moPj0rLg"

""Nothing can help you" Bullshit. Making shielded txs mandatory - as Monero did - makes that traffic analysis impossible. Don't believe me Just look at a Monero block explorer.

"I realized recently that many people have seriously overestimated how well Mimblewimble scales. Fact: Mimblewimble's big-O scalability is just as bad as Bitcoin's. For a full node to sync in the same security model as BTC it needs 64-bytes of data per transaction not zero"

"Good riddance. This is the kind of bullshit that makes "maximalist" an insult. Zcash has a lot less privacy that users seem to think it does. But it also probably has a lot more than zero. 1) There's many potential failures that could make it zero. 2) As in "zero" = BTC. https://x.com/WhalePanda/status/996110004188049410 https://x.com/WhalePanda/status/996110004188049410"
