Re: [ANN][XCN] Cryptonite | 1st mini-blockchain coin | M7 PoW

XCN has a more innovative tech than 99% of the copycoins out there. But it provides no anon yet which is a must have standard feature nowadays. While I agree that this coin really doesnt need to focus on a fancy superspecial anon solution like all the other coins, wouldnt it be possible to implement a simple mixer solution from an existing anoncoin without the need for a complete new rollout/blockchain? Guess the community would be more than happy to crowdfund a further dev for this, as we saw the impact on price when there were merely talks about a possible XCN cooperation with BTCD/Supernetwork.

I am a strong supporter of optional anonymity because that feature will be important in many countries if altcoins are going to have political power, but looking at the work of bitfreak and any others working with him/her it looks like they are ahead of the curve enough that a feature like that will not arrive too late.

Also as you say it might be that some person can add an open source tweak, like a mixer and/or a utility that routes the connection through a tor like service.

The bad news is you need ring signatures for real anonymity at the moment.

The good news is many people are working on better forms of obfuscation for Bitcoin, so whatever they come up with can be glommed on to XCN, and probably with improvements thanks to XCN's advanced features.

Coinjoin is a start, with XC, DarkCoin, and ZeroCoin actively trying to improve upon it. 'DarkNite' has a nice ring to it! Cool

Anoncoin is just about to release ZC. Less then a month til it's on testnet. Howoever, the proofs are HUGE so the bloat is big. Would be nice if it could be on a minichain.
