the problem with all these ANNs is that there is zero innovation. You get zerocoin, you get RingCT you get Bitcoin Core and you bundle it again. You put moderators and "guarantors" good names who will rape mine the coin and then pump and dump it and voila.

Privacy? Monero. Or any of the other numerous zerocoin implementations like Zcoin PivX etc.

If every developer didn't try to get rich but instead good developers worked together we would have a much better ecosystem. Don't reinvent the wheel a hundred times over.

That's where you're wrong with VEIL.

99% of people borrow from each other in this space. That's why it's called "open source".

Even Satoshi took other projects that had been tried or failed and built Bitcoin from their research.

The devs here are trying to improve on what's already built by building on top of it and improving it.

The devs behind VEIL are reputable. Do more research on VEIL. Wink

LOL, not adding innovative features and just stitching together bits and pieces from other projects for profit is the worse kind of "open source". All of the privacy features here have been done already.
Bitcoin was a huge innovation and had a lot of stuff never attempted before. If it was just copied from other open source projects the copyrights would be there. You won't find other source for most of the core features, just things like boost and BDB which many projects use outside of crypto.

I wouldn't consider devs that abandon a previous project (PIVX) because the price dropped and it got difficult to continue, that reputable. Other than money why would they do that?
