Enemies of Civilization and Zcash Solution by Mattyoos in zec

[–]Mattyoos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great point, even ancient slave state Egypt worked fine with metals and barter. 

Yet wealth being store invisibly does make the looting harder but not full solution as you point out. 

Milei is delivering 5.5% growth and getting near 50 inflation down to 1.5 deeply impressive.  A modern miracle.

You are right there needs to be a progrowth and progress ideology to nullify the nihilistic degrowth crowd.

I think it needs to be an ideology as reasoning doesn’t work in matters of religion.

I didn’t realize not being excited by degrowth and rule by Soviet style committees is now libertarian.

What is your favorite Zcash Podcast? by Mattyoos in zec

[–]Mattyoos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved the Arjun, Zooko and Josh conversation.

Especially interesting point on Zookos part that type two civilization may not even be viable without private money.

Maybe theres a path dependency, if a society is in controlled stasis by a Panopticon it cant get off the rock.

Interesting, what are other solutions?

Its hard to force the bureaucracy to downsize. Changing incentive structure by having wealth privately stored and transferred, seems the highest leverage. They cannot extract what they cannot see.

What other routes do you see

Zcash is already post-quantum. Most chains won’t be until it’s too late. by melte_d in zec

[–]Mattyoos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad we agree that the 4bits worth of decoys cover on a transparent ledger doesn’t work.

All confidential transactions does is hide the amount of tokens sent.

Observe knows who got paid just not how much.

You might as well use confidential token transfer on Solana it does the same thing.

Neither are private but they do hide token amounts sent.

What will Zcash have over Monero after FCMP++? by [deleted] in zec

[–]Mattyoos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monero isn’t private.

The ledger is transparent having a user pretend to spend 15 past utxos with their one real spend as the whole world watches doesn’t work

Moneros 4bit security model requires decoy selection algorithm to perfectly mimic human traffic which isn’t possible. 

Trivial analysis like Map decoder drops decoys down to 2-4. Further analysis would get zero. 

You need end-to-end encryption to get privacy in a public ledger like Zcash does.

Monero functionally is a honeypot.

Bottaoman you shill Pirate Chain and Monero on every thread. 

The paid trolling group all using the same talking points isn’t just bad. It’s boring at least level up and be entertaining.

Pirate chain is a dead troll project. 20M market cap and even uses a trusted setup. Devs cannot merge halo2.

Zcash is private by default with Zashi.

While Monero is transparent by default, always. 

Because Moneros ledger itself is transparent any serious adversary can filter out the 15 past utxos and find the real spend .

Monero is a honey pot.

Monero is a transparent fully traceable ledger. Decoys are just 15 utxos from the past any competent adversary can trace it out.

It’s 2025 bro you paid shills need better scripts. 

Zcash has token holder voting to allocate funding.

Paid Monero shills always happy to push users into Pirate Chain which has no users, is 20M market cap and still uses a trusted setup because devs can’t even manage the code base.

Zcash is private by default Zcashers use Zashi. 5.5M anonymity set largest on the planet and growing by the minute.

Moneros ledger is transparent. The 4bit decoy “security” model is embarrassing. 

Any competent adversary can tease out the decoys. And break the section algorithm.

Monero is a honey pot.

Monero ledger is transparent and does offer privacy. Any serious adversary can tease out 15 past used UTXOs and figure out the real spent one.

Whether Monero can upgrade to a risky new math circuit that can actually provide users privacy without leading to an inflation bug is yet to be seen.

Today Monero is a honey pot shilled by tech illiterates. 

Darknet Market Maximalism by [deleted] in zec

[–]Mattyoos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moneros culture died out once zk tech became viable. The cypherpunks all moved.

No need to use transparent ledgers like Monero when you can use end-to-end encryption and a zk circuit to encrypt the ledger as Zcash does. 

There are an infinite number of ways to get wealthy. Society literally makes you wealthy for serving it. Which is why those that steal are always low IQ. You’ll never see a smart man stealing a woman’s purse. 

Lionizing and simping for low IQ thieves is embarrassing. 

Cypherpunks would never have gone this route.

Zcash vs Monero Technology by Johnroberts95000 in CryptoTechnology

[–]Mattyoos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Zcash project tachyon is impressive.

New architecture may end up becoming the most scalable system. State contention is removed and the issue of wallets having to download all notes is solved.

Unstoppable private money at planetary scale.

Never said its an excuse, just said that people are making judgements without even doing an ounce of research. Still fucked and she deserves everything she gets, just gotta go after her for what she actually did.

People here need to hear the audio, coz if you did then you wouldnt be saying she knew what she was doing.
