MAID's old tech is being hyped by bolting on some trendy "MOAR BLOCKCHAIN" stuff via a Rube Goldberg layer of SafeCoin rigmarole.

What on earth are you talking about? Safenet won't use a blockchain.

I make a point about SafeCoin's (possibly risky) use of Bitcoin's public blockchain, and you talk about Safenet.   Roll Eyes

Safenet is bound to SafeCoin via a Rube Goldberg layer of chutes and ladders that may leak privacy.

Of course you'd rather talk up Safenet's internals than address concerns about the anonymity of the payment interface.

Other than some vague reference to people at universities, are any well known cypherpunks reviewing the SafeCoin<->SafeNet scheme?

Since people's lives might depend on that scheme being untraceable/unlinkable/private, I don't understand the resentment towards scrutiny.

Unless you're only here for the pump and dump....
