Zerocoin offers real anonymity - which we all of a sudden really need.

Anyone have any idea if the devs will add it any time soon (or ever?)

Hi!

I really don't know about Zerocoin. But there is a coin that probably implements a real anonymity already. I can't proove they are 100% correct from the mathematical point of view but they provide a very thorough paper (see bytecoin.org) and a working (and even running already) implementation.

There is a number of issues I consider to be obscure regarding this coin: name, launch data (June 2012), very strange site, no developers available on bitcointalk.org, ... But in case this coin is really anonymous it is worth close attention. And a comparison with Zerocoin could be very interesting.

All known details are here (thank's for DStrange): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=512747.0

UPD: They have a cool site explaining things a little bit: https://cryptonote.org/inside.php
