I've been reading anonymint's writings for the past week or so, which also prompted me to dive into some other rabbit holes.

I'm more convinced now of the dangers of segwit. Don't mistake that for being a promotion of bcash.

Could you provide me with a link where I can read about that? I remember anonymint's post, but I did not pay enough attention and now I can not find it.

Geeze, guys. We've been discussing these very same aspects of segwit since years. Have you had your fingers in your ears and blinders on up 'til now?

You're right. This has been discussed for a long time. In fact, I myself asked similar lake in the forum before segwit activation; and Lauda gave me an answer that at that moment left me quite satisfied (I leave the quote below).

I asked Infofront for the sayings of anonymint's to see if I could find some new information or another point of view regarding the same problem.

And he just does not stop. Neither Jonald nor the scam artist "Dr. Craig Wright" can be trusted with anything they say.

SegWit introduces a fundamental change to bitcoin: the AnyOneCanSpend address, or essentially a blank signature for transactions. SegWit uses an AnyOneCanSpend address so that transactions will be validated and recorded into blocks, even though the sender/receiver signature data is separated. Normally, an AnyOneCanSpend output (as its name implies) would allow any miner to spend the funds associated with that transaction; therefore, SegWit would introduce new rules for interpreting AnyOneCanSpend. This means that miners could not take advantage of that output address to inappropriately spend the funds associated with all SegWit transactions.

No. AnyoneCanSpend is not a new concept and is certainly not a fundamental change. AnyoneCanSpend does not mean literally anyone can spend¹. It's a script without conditions attached to they way the related output can be spent. This whole article has been debunked months before it came into existence.
