Even if you can rationalize a CEO (a dipshit at that), a trusted set-up and optional privacy (basically a speculator who doesn't acknowledge privacy-centric concerns), even if you can get past those issues, you can't get past a heavy distribution rate and a supply that can't be audited--it's one of the most unfriendly designs for hodlers. It's like they intentionally designed it to fail--still not sure how Zooko and Green have careers given they took something as novel as Zsnarks and buried it with their poor choices.
