As I said before, do you have any doubts that there will soon be an event that leaves no doubt that Zcash is a development co-opted by regulators with money from bankers?

zero doubts here bro.
when the sec roundtable invite hits your inbox, you're no longer privacy-by-principle— you're compliance-first entertainment. same for every “compliant privacy-fork”. they *always* repackage the best tech for the leash.
If true it means Snowden is in on it right?
I don't think so.
There is no evidence, I haven't even found any strong clues.
While Snowden is historically “in on it” with Zcash due to his foundational role in the currency's privacy, the article does not imply that he is directly involved in the SEC's 2025 roundtable.
The participant is Zooko Wilcox, representing Zcash's stance on privacy.
nah, snowden ain't in on anything,he just called zcash's crypto “the most interesting” once, walked away, and never looked back.
the “invitation” to a government roundtable is just zooko cosplaying at legitimacy, exactly the kinda sanitised theatre the state loves. pattern’s obvious: co-opt the privacy coin, scrape the shine off, and parade the remnant around as “regulatory-compliant privacy.” still smells fishy, but edward ain’t anywhere near this kitchen.
He was also promoting tor, wire, signal and bunch of other sus tech in the past.
Then again, he also recommended nostr in the past. So I guess his opinion is just normal with plenty of mistakes like anyone else around here.
exactly. dude’s got credibility scars from shilling tor & signal (fed-approved privacy lol), but even blind squirrels find acorns , him name-dropping nostr was a rare W.
nobody’s oracle, just another fallible bro with a mic. we adapt, we verify, we laugh at the lulz.
Tor was a fed project from the beginning too…
Snowden isn't a good guy. He was a double agent who dumped his burn files to help himself stay alive.
There's a reason they haven't moved on him and it's because he's still part of the intelligence apparatus.
never in doubt
