an idea could be to transfer some amount to a newly created player.
this could lead to a risk of course, but it's the easiest way i think and after all this game shouldn't be a money laundering system, and if someone wants to use it for that, rightly takes its risks Tongue

Anonymity doesn't necessarily mean money-laundering operations. Even though my suggestion was a pretty minor one compared to the current impending issues of pruning and the like, it's still worthwhile to try and see what the true potential of a game platform like HUC can really be, by using all of its possible assets Smiley I'm also preparing a document with all the salient features of HUC which distinguish it from the rest and which would make HUC worthy of adoption, in preparation for the major update which is in the works. This summer should be used well to strengthen HUC's foundations since I'm predicting another major upshift in the crypto-world come next October/November, and we should take full advantage of that

This.  I really believe that crypto-coins should allow for strong anonymity.  But unfortunately, I don't see how it can be achieved in Huntercoin so far.

@MithrilMan:  Do you mean that when creating a player, you can optionally give it some coins already?  (Incidentally, the upcoming hardfork will allow this in some way - it won't fix a general's value but only enforce a lower limit.  That's what the new "coinAmount" field is for.)  I don't think this helps much, though, since everyone who does this and loses the coins later to some "other" player is making a very obvious link between input and output of the attempted "mix".  (Although, since there's some non-vanishing risk that some other player may take the coins, it does at least provide deniability.)
