what is the difference between privacy and anon
can u share with us
thx in advance
I'll like that too, a clearer explanation in this context.
IMO:
Privacy = TOR/VPN/Proxy network
Anon = TOR + Mixing nodes
I would be in to helping fund Privacy
Anon not so much...
anon - non traceable transactions.
can be used for both good and bad activites
- good: charity donations, etc, but this can be achieved in privacy mode too.
- bad: illegal activities, drugs, money laundering, etc
privacy - transaction can be traced, but this option is up to the owner (like keep transaction private, but still traceable e.g. for tax records, etc)
-this would be probably preferable from business/merchant/company viewpoints
I would like to move that the WCF invest in the deep investigation of a privacy function, thereby defining and implementing a Privacy function for Whitecoin. Personally I believe that TOR is the least path to resistance with numerous examples to follow however, this deep review by Mindfox and other developers needs to start upon vetting of kick starting the Privacy project.
My Vote = YES to Privacy Function
To further support the development of a Privacy function, Shair.com will be donating to the privacy project and once the WCF determines the approx efforts required, WCF creates the bounty, allocates % of its current donation wallet to the privacy project, additional donations can then be accepted and allocated this project with a donation by Shair. I suspect that raising funds to cover this project shouldn't be an issue.
Other Items:
1. Shair.com is in the final stages of reviewing the legalities for its Community Investment Award, looking to provide an update early next week. The current framework will support the Community and WCF, just need the lawyers to sign off on it.
2. Shair.com would like to put forth that in addition to Privacy, that the WCF/Community consider smart contracts - the blockchain is where real innovation, value and differentiation is, Shair will support this process provided the Community decides that the investment to "smartify" the Whitecoin Network, is a path to follow. Shair believes that this is the future (innovation of the blockchain) and would like to begin the process of evaluating the process of defining how this can be accomplished with Whitecoin, if the Community/WCF agree.
On behalf of Shair.com we look forward to supporting the growth of the Community, Whitecoin and The Whitecoin Foundation for the longterm. Our initial investment has already been made (yes we are staking) with the very real potential of much more to follow as we continue to evaluate the path the community and WCF takes, in addition to the support of the community for Whitecoin, initiated projects and acceptance of Whitecoin by our interested Investors, Customers and Associates.
