Hey Vertcoin Team

do you really think implement zeroCoin/zerocash is a good idea?
.............

There are legitimate reasons for anonymity.

For example, in theory, with bitcoin an employer might have the ability to see that you sent a payment to a psychiatrist which could affect your employment or your health insurance ....................

sure and i agree there are allways good reasons for anonymity (i use thor from time to time)
but i think you and jballs are missing the point here, the questions is if this will harm the reputation of vtc. not if anonymity is good or bad (which is always a double-edged sword).
........

Perhaps, but then it would be their mistake. You would have to explain to them why anonymity is essential (just as financial privacy is codified into law). I would not compare zerocoin to tor, I see it more as not showing everyone your bank statements and monthly receipts. Reasonable people (investors) should be able to understand this.

As far as regulations are considered, we will have to wait and see. This is the year we will find out, and I also got a positive feeling from the NYDFS hearings

so the irs can control this transactions (a very importat point for serious financial consultants and asset managers)?
