Of course the trust system will be scrutinized.. but the technology is based on several concepts, one of which is "Web of Trust" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_of_trust, the bottom line is that the wallet won't send money to untrusted nodes



I'm a little confused.  As a technically challenged crypto holder, are you saying it is possible that coins can be stolen? Just like people, someone you trust today, may be untrustworthy tomorrow. Is it the same for Xnodes?
As I could understand... there will be a system that detects malisious Xnodes and exclude them in the path...
but it is not yet implemented in this Rev1, I tought it will be implemented in Rev2

How does the system know an Xnode is malicious beforehand?  Is there a non-technical explanation of this somewhere?  If not, there should be.

Was wondering this myself.
