I hope Evan can work in IP obfuscation, as Anonymint suggested. Then it would be hard to challenge DRK in any foreseeable way.
I like this idea, I think we could go open source much sooner while remaining the leading privacy-centric crypto.
All in due time. This will give people the option to make copies of DRK though. With IP obfuscation, DRK would definitely be the best altcoin from a technical perspective.
