Privacy matters. Privacy should be unstoppable. Privacy is an individuals prerogative.
If you’re interested in coming on the show in future weeks and trying out crypto products like Decrediton, Bison Wallet (aka DCRDEX) or Bison Relay, join us and we’ll get you started.
Generally, there are three options for privacy:
Each has its own unique benefits and drawbacks but generally I sit in the camp that says privacy should be optional. This is for a few reasons...
* Default privacy: is good for when you require complete anonymity. But this does come with two possible drawbacks Pruning - the inability to reduce the size of a blockchain by consolidating account and transaction history. And undiscoverable Inflation attacks.
* Optional Privacy: means that you get a good level of privacy without taking on the undesirable drawbacks. It also means you have choices for when to use privacy and when not to. One example of this are mixing protocols like stakeshuffle++ which allow for efficiency and incredibly high levels of privacy.
* No privacy is useful for organisational transparency for things like treasury spending, charity donations, and verifiability. One benefit of no privacy is the reduction of complexity.
