I don't know what happens, maybe is the asperger, or all of this genius out there have that kind of attitude... but look at linus torvalds... look at steve jobs... etc... all of them are genius doing what they love/know... but people talk shit about them...

Ever since Steve Jobs died of cancer I have no problem with him any more, he got what he deserved Cheesy

This paper is the starting of dark++ and vanilla becoming anonymous

I reviewed it and it tells a lot about John Connor. Like seriously, who puts a starting bracket on a new line? It's the ancient way of coding. My grandpa coded like that Cheesy

. But the fact that he uses C++11 code itself to explain his ideas tells us he has no academic background and/or he is having problems explaining himself (+1 for asperger).

But the real problem with his anonymity solution is that it is not novel. Ever since bitcoin was created brilliant minds have been trying to enhance the protocol so that transactions would be truly anonymous. All that has been achieved is by the means of mixing and other messy work with cryptography. Sure it gives you slightly more anonymity than bitcoin in its natural form but it doesn't solve the problem, it only pushes it farther into the future. What I am anxious to see is a new paradigm in the domain of transaction anonymity. Something that would be intrinsic to the protocol. Perhaps it is impossible, I don't know that, but I do know that homomorphic encryption and projects such as sharemind could hold the key to truly anonymous transactions.
