Hi,
Is there any plan to enhance the privacy of the node IP address ? Like by using Tor or I2P ? Also, is there any bounty open for such tasks, so third party dev' could implement them and being paid in Zano ?

I would like to understand how you will implement RingCT + PoS, because as far as I know the amount needs to be revealed to check that the 'weight' is indeed correct. I guess that you could include a range proof instead of revealing the exact amount, but it still is a big hint of the real UTXO amount. So how exactly do you plan to resolve this issue ?

Regards

Hi, thanks for the questions. An update to node privacy is already planned, but there's no bounty as the devs have already done some work on it and will move to finishing that up as soon as wrapped Zano is launched.

The exact implementation of PoS with hidden amounts is still being finalized, but once it's done there will be a technical paper with details of the scheme for public review.
I'm not aware of any bounties for dev work at the moment, but I'll double-check it.
