   @sun Monero is what people thought Bitcoin was.

     @Mark privacy shouldn't be an A+ if mathematically superior designs like zcash exist

     @sun On the ground it's still a+, because Zcash only has theorical privacy. It's not field tested, there's no effort to crack it, and there's no crowd privacy because no one uses the privacy-enabled Zcash.
     There's a reason why darknet market sellers don't accept Zcash.

     @Mark I'm not saying switch to zcash I'm just saying I don't think you can give something an A+ if the tech has continued to move forward

     @sun Also the fact that it's centralized and has weird links to Israel makes Zcash theorically compromised from the get go anyway.

     @Mark @sun Can't Monero be made more durable than gold with enough backups?
     
     (Gold might not be recoverable after carpet bombing of the storage, while an offsite monero wallet backup will be fine).
