aantonop: Bitcoin Q&A: Privacy, inflation risks, and censorship resistance Featured
How do zero knowledge proofs work? How do you create a zero knowledge proof transaction? Are they computationally difficult? Are privacy coins useful in authoritarian environments? Will MimbleWimble displace Zcash? What implications does the Zcash inflation vulnerability have for privacy in Bitcoin? What problem could banks or international governments pose for Bitcoin without privacy and fungibility?
These question are from the February monthly subscriber session, the sixth session of MOOC 11, and the Seoul Bitcoin meetup, which took place on February 23rd, March 7th, and April 5th 2019 respectively.
