Hi NavCoin devs,

I'm a member of The Shadow Project, we're a group of developers and activists that fight for online privacy.
We're also the people behind the ShadowCash project, one which we develop with a lot of spirit and love.

We took notice that you're using quite a bit of our codebase - we think that's great by the way, as developers it strokes our ego a bit Cheesy

On the other hand we do believe credits are to be given where they are due.

We were wondering if you could give us a fair mention in the main thread for the tremendous effort we've put into programming it.
Major parts of your platform are 100% based of what we made stealth addresses and our secure messaging, all by all good for roughly 4,600 lines of code.
Our community is heavily guarded by morals, none of them are pleased with relentless "copy-pasting" our efforts and at best will not touch your coin, at worst they'll argue to death and the odds are not in your favor with this one.

Recently some members of your community have been throwing mud at ShadowCash for not 'having enough developers, navcoin has 7'.
I don't have to explain why that pissed some people off, I hope we can come to consensus.

PS: Good job on running those Tor relay nodes, glad to see supporters of Tor Cheesy

Hi Kewde,

Thank you very much for writing to us and I would like to congratulate on your achievements , Indeed we as a community and developers working on a common consensus working towards a common goal , that is privacy for everyone and more all contributing to the advancement of the Cryptocurrency usage and the blockchain technology and most of all contributing to the Crypto-Platform and advancement of the same is considered immensely valuable for all of us to move forward as a community.
Due credits are given where due and as much as you are guarded by morals so are we and while we respect rights and innovation , the entire bitcoin blockchain is open-source and released under the (https://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php) thus it is in the public domain , so is all that we are all working for and anyone being free to use it work on top and develop further on top , there's no this is mine and this is yours when it comes to MIT. So once your code base is on the public domain it can be implemented to the core code base of many other coins , just like your core base being bitcoin , which as we all have given due credit at all times , so have you and so have we.
Due credit can be found in those aspect of the code used. Anyhow let me clear our any doubts that you may have about the usage and technology , even though stealth addresses are a part of the core base , it is more working as a nullified code , where a function is not derived to the main operations of the wallet or our unique technology , it doesn't work in anyway or is actively enabled , you would know this if you went through the code yourself sufficiently.
Its just a piece of code that sits behind the in the background that is not part of our working model of our anonymity protocols , thereby voiding it. Furthermore I can assure and it has proven over and over again that NavCoin Anonymity is one of its kind and as per our previous code base works on its own and independently regardless of the core base , its a module of its own.

As a developer I believe that working together as a single organism or as a single community regardless of what coin we are working on , sustains the survival of the entire cryptocurrency world. So I have always encouraged and ignited innovation , knowledge sharing , assist communities when things are not going the greatest and most of all work on a common goal. Which is Anonymity.

As a fellow developer I'd like to extend my support and assistance that I can in anyway and when needed for the benefit of the entire cryptocoin community at all times.

Warm Regards,
