* Even faster x5 - x10 EC crypto based on new features in Broadwell+ and Ryzen CPUs
* 1 + Bulletproofs + 5 to enable truly anonymous ring signatures (sizes 100+), instead of plausible deniability (size 5)
* Cryptonote blockchain compression, down into below 1 GB sizes for Monero
* Combination of 1 and 3 and a specially tuned server to create Electrum-like wallets.
* Proper mathematical solution to Attack III described in here.
* Tracking of Monero using Attack III (their fix is fairly sub-par especially if some assumptions can be made about the wallet) and graph analysis.

And also solve the moneroV issue in one shot...
Let's see what the rest of the core team says.
