The zkSNACKs coordinator is clearly the largest and has substantially more liquidity than others; hence, this is why most people use it. Wasabi Wallet was built in a way that the developers and zkSNACKs don't collect any data about their users. We do not care who you are and what you do with your bitcoins! We don't want to know. Unfortunately, some people do collect data, attach it to bitcoin addresses and make decisions based on that information. The company is getting in trouble and harassed because apparently some of the users of our coordinator are so-called “criminals”, according to the people keeping up these databases.
We are not saying that the database is correct, as we do not agree with most of the classifications but we want to be able to see the same information that apparently others already have. We don’t want to do any chain surveillance ourselves, so we would rather just buy that information from others. We are not interested in applying sanctions or other immoral crap. We are exercising our right as a company to choose not to serve those people who could get us in trouble and the ones whom we wouldn’t want to support for ethical reasons.
I have a disturbing question on this thread. Although I am not a programmer and I can not develop an app or a software but I can design website with Adobe Dreamweaver CSS and HTML code. That means I have small idea on different a website even though I am not a professional.
zkSNACKs company targeted audience are the bitcoiners, which is other cryptocurrency users can not user the software to avoid confusion of coins. Wasabi Wallet company does not or have nothing to do with users data and the information, yes it is possible since the software is designed to be open source but the software was developed and lunched by human not robot, that means they most have access to the users data to set and make things easier for the users. If the company do not know the Users data then how will they know the total number of users of the wallet? If a particular User account is having issue, how will they resolved it?
Finally. From my point of view your (OP) post history, I came to the conclusion that you are a computer software engineer plus a programmer that is why I am asking you. Keep it up. I really like your threads. You did full review on hardware and software analysis.
