as for sidechains / Blockstream, they seem to be pretty quiet and secretive and haven't released much info apart from the concept

Hey everyone,

Fishing for opinions if it is possible to implement cryptonote into Bitcoin to provide a solution for privacy/anonymity, for the bitcoin currency rather than using altcoins such as XMR/BCN.

Protocol: Adding a new address type or implementing ring signatures to Bitcoin. Is it possible? What kind of work is involved?

Sidechains: Not much information on sidechains yet, but about 2-3 months ago, I believe the rumor was in 60-90 days they would share more info. Does anyone know if Monero can be added into a Bitcoin sidechain?
