Andy says they DID intend to come out with ProtonWallet supporting coinjoin.
But they dropped it because of legal concerns.
Really seems like Proton is a positive actor in the privacy space .
if the price is just >0, how are miners incentivized to secure the network?
also re mining it seems inadvisable to continue to do sha256
since hash is likely to be negligable, the network would be trivial to attack
and with no confidence nobody would use the network
and since nobody is using the network it isnt private
maybe its a question of details
wherea would be price end up?
exactly what privacy preserving techniques?
etc
but basically
id say a private version of btc does not make *good enough* tradeoffs to disrupt xmr and zec
YW. Every time I go back to using DDG on Tor for example, after using Kagi, it's like night and day. Kagi can even index Nostr.
nostr:nevent1qqsf87em9rkg5gktj87jjcv7ckscxcvm2prqse7mkyru40d7p9euz9gvqku87
+1 for Kagi
love it
pay with LN
but obv you dont take particular care that it doesn't touch the internet?
Maybe you need a Monero.

"If Bitcoin diverted all of their energy to make itself private and became known as a network of complete and utter privacy, it probably is counterproductive to its own interests, because you don't want the United States government to say Bitcoin is completely private [...]
There's no way you're going to get 100 trillion dollars to flow into Bitcoin if its use case is directly against the interest of a government that it's within, right, so ... you don't want to be that good."

I wish there was another with more Command and Conquer vibes though
literally the next note on my feed after this one
whats your procedure for confirming your cold storage? how many people keep an old laptop or partition around just to throw a clean linux distro onto?
then what wallet and how do you access it?
then how do you connect to your node?
yeah there was a block on mini that was over 600% effort
almost 3 days without a block...
but yeah, shares have been good lately
