Interview
summary
Argues that governments are pushing a new crypto war focused on integrity of systems, not just algorithms, and warns current anonymity tech has tiny anonymity sets that leak identities. Recommends shrinking the software stack and building privacy at overlay layers, using blockchains only as a settlement layer and combining them with blind-signature DBC to get untraceable, cheap payments while removing issuer risk. Praises Monero’s spirit but says current coin mixing is insufficient.
