"sure Zcash hashrate is tiny compared to Bitcoin (as i said 8-year lag). Reality check : BTC ASICs Equihash rigs. You cant repurpose large swathes of Bitcoin hashrate overnight to target ZEC. Try to get enough Equihash equipment first (there is a shortage rn). An attack needs scale in the right hardware and scale costs. Cheaper possible"

"Bitcoin isnt what the new generation needs anymore. Its become a liquid intermediary comparable to the internet before HTTPS which is captured by the very actors it was created to resist. Zcash is the next level. It intends to keep everything good about Bitcoin adding on top : privacy memos scalability development fund on-chain governance for funding improvements smooth emission without brutal halvings private tokens for any use case staking (earning yield) swap transaction recipient authentication offline transactions All of this built directly on Layer 1"

"@gladstein @paulbrigner the end means all your arguments for Bitcoin already apply to Zcash (with 8-year lag). you cant just add Zcash tech onto Bitcoin to fix whats missing. youre fighting for a noble cause but ignoring the solution that could actually win it"

"if its not likely to happen then what exactly are you risk-assessing sounds more like ill believe in Zcash once its already as big as Bitcoin youre expressing a fair point but base-layer security isnt static its economics. when issuance goes to zero security depends on fees and that model *will* be tested. privacy and scalability arent novel tech theyre part of long-term trust. a system that protects users and stays economically secure ages better"

"its okay to be biased. were all biased in some way. as long as you periodically question your bias its a healthy one. bitcoin maxis rarely question their own bias. maybe because doing so could shake their conviction or the price when protecting the price becomes the goal the revolution quietly ends and starts looking more like one of murads finite-supply memecoins"

"Bitcoin without self-custody is still an NGU coin. Zcash without self-custody doesnt make sense. now which one still embodies what peer-to-peer electronic cash was meant to be"

"im actually skeptical it will. bitcoin has bigger issues than just the security budget (scaling privacy and quantum resistance). quantum resistance especially even if its solved it might require a migration to new address types (think satoshis coins and all those lost wallets). also doesnt the ASIC dependency on a handful of producers bother you i can see bitcoin surviving as an asset but not necessarily as a network. guess time will tell if im right or wrong"

"haha I can tell ChatGPT helped with that one 😉 point by point though : - monetary lens Zcash operates under the exact same monetary principles as Bitcoin. again just take the 8-year lag into account. - convergence totally agree that money tends to flow toward the hardest asset to debase. that statement is true on its own. the real (and still open IMO) question is which asset is that . - hashrate & incentives everything you said applies to Zcash too. miners always chase profitability. but assuming infinitely rising prices will sustain security forever thats far from guaranteed. - scaling"
