First off, nice job and congratulations on finding and implementing the solution to SDC's anonymity problem.

Secondly, go fuck yourself. This is open source software. If SDC stole your anonymity solution, then you stole their entire codebase. Get over yourself.

And no, I don't hold any SDC and give zero shits if it dies.

why are you so sore?

And let me guess, SDC didn't give any credit?

If someone had taken their solution there would be an army of little shadow trolls letting us know about it.

Eclipse will soon be the market leader and overtake SDC. Clearly superior developers with legit experience here as SDC decided they couldn't fix their own coin.

It looks like SDC went live with our solution for hashToEC.

They switched from creating a new generator, discussed here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14079014

What's this mean?

We are the leaders kids.

This is the heart of our algo, pushed publicly 9 days ago:

Code:

    for (j = 0; j < k; ++j)
    {
        if (j == 0)
            x = u;
        else
        {
            secp256k1_fe_set_int(&i, j);
            secp256k1_fe_add(&x, &i);
        }
        if (secp256k1_ge_set_xquad_var(&Q, &x))
        {
            success = 1;
            break;
        }
    }

This is shadowcash's pushed to their repo 3 days ago:

Code:

        while(!EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GFp(ecGrp, ptRet, bnTmp, 0, bnCtx) && count < 100)
        {
            count += 1;

            if (count == 100)
                return errorN(1, "%s: Failed to find a valid point for public key.", __func__);

            BN_add(bnTmp, bnTmp, bnOne);
        }

This is their commit after they read our critique of their method:
