Personally I'm very interested on someone's technical analysis of the anon tech in XC. I mean Darkcoin is constantly criticised  due to it's technical failings over the past few months. But the lack of criticism of XC leads me to believe that it's might fall in to one of these two categories:

1) That the anon tech is actually solid.

or

2) That the distribution and such was so bad that people don't even think it's worth analysing the tech and thus we don't actually know whether it works well or not.
