that whole comparison was too much biased for Spectrcoin.

the same way spectr has OBFS4, CloakCoin has ENIGMA to a whole new way to do anon transactions.

ENIGMA is audited by a security company (COGNOSEC, listed on NASDAQ), Spectr is doing the same error as other coins do, which is bringing up the tech without knowing if it is 100% secure.

We saw this before, every month coins network get hacked because of lack of security, when ppl start to use spectr a lot that will attract attention of hackers, and then we will see if it is really secure.

How is it "biased" ? The table uses privacy related features which are commonly used when comparing any coin. All the listed coins, XSPEC as well, has many additional features which are not listed. Given this generic nature of the comparison, I believe it even underplays what XSPEC has to offer, not the otherway around.

Also, given that XSPEC is built into TOR with OBSF4, it "inherits" the respective security features. Don't know what the user base of ENIGMA is, but I bet it does not come close to those using TOR and therefore providing "audit" of the security aspects on an ongoing basis.

Thanks TSVHoff and pvk444,

So, when everyone is on-board but slightly unhappy, that's probably where things should be haha

Nobody is getting all the representation they want, but everyone is getting some representation. I'm doing my best to represent things fairly which means nobody is going to be completely happy.

A quick comment on OBFS4 and ENIGMA: They have nothing in common, just to be clear.

OBFS4 was developed out of the Tor project. It is not a special tech that any one coin owns. It is a Tor protocol that any coin can be developed to follow.
   It has substantial documentation describing exactly what it does, and how. Not from a coin, but by the Tor project.

ENIGMA: I don't know what this is because nobody has said what it is. Whether it is audited or not we need to know what it is. Doing my own research, it looks to serve a function similar to masternodes, so that's where I put it. I am completely open to putting it somewhere else or making a new column, but I can't just create an "Enigma" column and provide no information as to what "Engima" is. So while appropriately named, Enigma needs to be a little bit less of an Enigma before we can compare it to other tech.
