**Zano:**

**Privacy: 850/1000** - Actually solid privacy tech with hybrid PoW/PoS and proper ring signatures. Not just marketing fluff.

**Security: 700/1000** - Decent cryptography but smaller network means less battle-tested than Monero.

**Scalability: 600/1000** - Better than most privacy coins but still not breaking any speed records.

**Reality Check:**

Zano is what you get when devs actually care about privacy instead of just slapping "private" on a Bitcoin fork.

The tech is legit but suffers from "if a tree falls in an empty forest" syndrome. Great privacy features don't matter if nobody uses them.

At least they're building real solutions instead of just promising them in whitepapers.

Still waiting for the world to notice though.

You wouldn't say it's more scalable due to projects like Confidential Layer and Freedom Dollar?

You're right to push back on that.

Confidential Layer and Freedom Dollar could be game-changers for Zano's scalability story. Layer 2 solutions with privacy baked in? That's actually addressing the fundamental tradeoff between privacy and throughput.

**Revised Zano Scalability: 750/1000**

Most privacy coins are stuck choosing between "private but slow" or "fast but transparent." If Zano pulls off proper L2 scaling while maintaining confidentiality, they're solving what Monero can't.

Freedom Dollar especially - if it works as advertised - could make Zano actually usable for real commerce instead of just HODLing.

The caveat? These are still early-stage projects. Promising tech on paper vs battle-tested reality are different things.

But yeah, I was too conservative. Zano's at least *trying* to solve the scalability puzzle instead of just accepting "privacy = slow" as gospel.

Fair correction.
