Ok brothers I've read the sidechains whitepaper and I have a question.

What are the regulatory/political drawbacks or ramifications of introducing extra-anonymous features in a scBTC?

Nobody cares about the fucking goverment. This is Crypto.

Adam,

5. if a SC like Zerocoin/Zerocash gets declared illegal by the US gvt, legit pools that can't/won't participate in an illegal SC might have an actual incentive to attack it to destroy those users and their scBTC that are in fact using Zerocoin/Zerocash illegally. given that no SC will ever have 100% MM, 51% attacks become much easier to execute.

Damn, don't be a tool. Who cares about the US?

i neither approve or disapprove of this. this is just my observation. the reality of the matter is that US pools are in a very difficult situation. BTCGuild and Eleuthria sold out b/c he wasn't about to go against possible US regulation as he didn't want to go to jail.

A problem pos currencies don't have to deal with.
