Regarding the privacy of Verge, I read somewhere, this is open ledger. Is this true? Can someone explain this?

Thanks

Anyone?

It's a Bitcoin clone, using a very old version of the Bitcoin codebase. It has no privacy features. The so called privacy is shipping a version that uses tor by default (or has a switch to turn it on?). Guess what? It's simple to run Bitcoin over tor, and you'd have far more privacy because people actually use Bitcoin.

Hi, my name is Michael Stollaire, a member of the Verge (XVG) Core Team. The very old version of the Bitcoin codebase statement is absolutely not true. About privacy, we are releasing a new feature this month called Wraith Protocol, which puts Verge on the same level as Monero and the other privacy coins, making this statement incorrect as well.

Hi Michael Stollaire. It kind of looks like Bitcoin v0.9 codebase, which was released more than three years ago. Is this incorrect?

Do you have any info about this wraith protocol? Doesn't seem to be in the op. Is this something you guys are rolling your own, or borrowing from somewhere else?

hi jwinterm, long time no see.

this is something we are rolling out.

also, its based somewhat on btc .10. but bitcoin obviously does not support i2p, and does not support multi algorithm mining (as you already know)

we dont plan on integrating segwit, if we need to scale up, we will do so on-chain.

It looks like Bitcoin has worked with i2p since 2012:

I mean, it's an old version, but should still work I guess:

Almost on same codebase as Verge Tongue

You see, I thought that Verge was based on v0.8 codebase because the INSTALL file in root github directory is identical between Bitcoin v0.8 branch and Verge master branch, but it was changed in v0.9 and v0.10 for Bitcoin. Also the folder structure looks like pre-v0.10 I thought.

Looking at your github with the coin emission - man, 75% of all coins that will ever exist mined in the first 10 days or so when you were generic scrypt clone called Dogecoindark. Wow Cheesy

I know a lot of them probably got spread around. I certainly bought a couple when they were trading on Cryptorush v2 for 1-3 sat, but still... Whatever happened to that scammer dragon guy anyway?

Anyway, so no specifics on Wraith protocol? You guys are just gonna roll it out on mainnet without any public testing or scrutiny, or there will be a paper or some test code forthcoming before it's actually implemented for use on mainnet?

Good to know.
