At this stage we confirm that Colin's words were right, it's not possible to apply privacy to XRB as we kown it today ( zkSNARKs).

Adding the privacy feature is harder than it may look, simply applying a ZK-SNARKs protocol (the underlying protocol of Zcash) would make the transaction time increase a lot.

What do you think about this?

While it's not possible to simply slap on zkSNARKs and have it work at the speed of RaiBlocks, with our unique implementation, we've made it possible to have 10-15 second transaction speeds utilizing distributed ledgers and zkSNARKs.

Logo design has changed. What do you intend to express with it what is behind the design?

We intended to convey stealth and speed with the dark tones, sleek design, and geometric outlines while outlining shape of the Manta Ray which is what our currency was named after.

I mean, that is cool you've done that - but it seems unworthy of a coin when things like PIVX can do 50/tps.
