i'm gonna repeat this for the people in the back

i have always cringed at ecash stuff and these were the essence of my doubts about how the system works

come on, this should be obvious since Chaum invented this in 1983, there is critical metadata leaks and the mint is a trusted party and the denominations are correlation

ecash promoters, start addressing this or i will bring this problem up every time i am unfortunate enough to see your nonsense marketing

The government wouldn't be pushing it so hard if it hadn't been backdoored for 30 years

No wonder it's got such a huge marketing budget, central influencer agency working overtime on it

the government is pushing what?

ECash

ohhhh haha, wow, this is a great point...

i mean it isn't rocket science if you study CS and the history of cryptography and distributed systems lol, like, seriously (the whole field is fucked up thanks to fiat incentives tho)

yeah, exactly, it's not solving any problem except synchrony

do i need to repeat this, yes, i need to write an OP saying so

put it on blast!

I don't know squat about how ecash mints are implemented but can't they mint every token in the same denomination to address that?

It would be a similar principle to a ZeroLink coinjoin.

you see, that's the point!

Wait I was asking a question

ecash only delinks between sender and receiver to the rest of the world, the mint sees it as far as the amount goes, which is the identifier

you can only make it work if you craft your inputs and outputs to be minimal in scope and frequent in occurrance, i never see any ecash propaganda about this point

and if you don't do that, then you only hide your identity by using a non-correlated IP address to issue/spend

trying to MIX IP addresses/folly?

it works, but the amounts are metadata you can't avoid

ya,damn it!

But do you know if mints implement equal denomination tokens or none of them care about this issue?

I'm discussing this but I don't really care about ecash lol nerd sniping at its finest

ok but why am i hearing this first time today?

Because ecash has negligible usage and hasn't been through an adversarial environment?

The market speaks for itself, I seriously doubt DNM will ever use lightning or ecash.

i am simply giving you a weaksauce, easy hypothetical attack vector and honestly i just hated all the ecash shit before so now it's personal

because you already attacked me before, and now i have a motivation to prove you wrong, and i already have two solid counterpoints

I have no idea what you are talking about. When did I attack you?

The only thing I remeber discussing with you was concurrency, inheritance and compile times.

ok, shall i peruse our history then?

I will zap you 250k sats if you find a note of me attacking you

i already seen you many times, why would that be a provocation to me?

go buy some lube with that, it should do you for the next week

Again, I have no idea what you're talking about. Not that it matters, I gave you more than a fair chance to back it up.

Time is too scarce to keep wasting in these unproductive nonsense talks. I enjoyed following you while it lasted, your journaling on your progress with replicatr were interesting reads.

I don't know why you chose to seemingly antagonize me. Bye 🫂

you just gave me an example of you attacking me? what more do you want?

would you like me to zap you so you can waste your time harassing me?

here's a tip

you go write the algorithm that proves me wrong

and i will concede

i'm quite sick of your shit so i'm gonna find it

you know it's just a matter of scrolling, right? and i will find the several nonsenses from you
