It's not the same. Why would had our devs bother to spend thousands hours of coding if so... the way you say this is a bit misleading IMHO.

I never said it was the same. I said the anonymity uses the same underlying approach as cryptonote so the resulting anonymity is the same (or worse, if minting/destroy is used too much, but that is up to the users I suppose). I acknowledged some minor differences, but I don't believe they are particularly significant in the area of anonymity.

As for why thousands of hours were spent on it, you would have to ask them. Presumably they thought that reimplementing it all was a good idea for whatever collection of reasons. I guess the market will decide.

Question, can cryptonote coins slot in updated technology to there code without starting from scratch? because i know SDC can without starting from scratch so yeah maybe it's based on the same technique as cryptonote but it can be improved and it's faster and slimmer and the wallet is the best looking and functioning wallet in the crypto world with chat and many extras coming soon so right now we win Tongue

we will have mobile wallets in the near future with all this tech would like to see any of the cryptonote coins pull that off.

Techniques and algorithms and the code/implementation are two different things. I was addressing the former. Since I haven't reviewed the SDC implementation at all, I would be speaking out of ignorance to address that one way or another.

BTW, any reasonably designed piece of software can have pieces replaced without starting from scratch. That's called modularity.

that's why i was asking anyways let the most hard working most innovative team win i say, and if that is SDC and right now it appears to be then awesome because i hold shit loads hahah, if not oh well you win some you lose some, but im confident, I don't know much about coding and all that but i do know technology that has the potential to be worth a lot in the future, 90% of the public do not care about coding they want something that works, looks good, with lots of features( like free chat, video voice call, decentralized marketplaces) and ease of use, we are hitting all those nails all we need is publicity and adoption now.
