Just discovered this thread. Awesome project. I am wondering why this has so little attention from the community. Projects like this give a very good reason to stay conservative regarding the max block size limit.
So OtherCoin proposes a more subtle change, one that would really make Bitcoin anonymous and isolated from any online intervention/analysis - that is harder to understand than a new mining chip or a new (online) fancy wallet. Or maybe I'm just nuts and people don't really care about their privacy and are perfectly ok with the pseudonymous nature of Bitcoin Smiley.

And yet this is the kind of project that would need tons of funding to really take off because it benefits/suffers from the network effect. The more people/merchants who would use OtherCoin, the more it would become useful and so on. And the more it would benefit Bitcoin in general.

It's a pity to see 21&Co... raising so much money for dubious projects while the promising ones are underfunded
