Just because we see a privacy issue that doesn't mean we are against a better way forward than the usual BTC transactions.

We wonder whether #AtomicSwaps into #privacyCoins, which are better suited to #microTransactions might be better and more workable, moving forward.

What do you think?

One question, that we've not seen answered, is what #HashingAlgorithm does is use? Is it the same as bitcoin facilitating #AtomicSwaps or is it different?

Indeed articles we've seen don't even touch on basics such as whether its #ProofOfWork, #ProofOfStake or #ProofOfBrainActivity. Its a huge oversight and maybe a deliberate attempt by #corporateSponsored #searchEngines to maintain a level of ignorance.

By dumbing down the details, they can avoid proper scruitiny.

If they're #FOSS, don't require #javascript, nor from part of a #neuralNetwork that serves #bigTech then we support them. In fact they are important to prevent #OptionsAbuse for #AtomicSwaps - a documented problem.

> re crycry's PoW being illegitimate

PoW is simply needed for trustless systems. The byProduct, #heat, is not inherently a bad thing. We and other forwardLooking #entrepreneurs can think of many uses for heat. :)

When you wrote "CC" we assumed creditCard, but nice to know #crypto is stealing that mantle.

We're interested in #LightningNetworks in guilds (eg. between #organicallyCertified #growers #retailers etc).

Then there's #AtomicSwaps, so you can exchange #BTC for say, another crypto without a thirdParty custodian like an exchange. For it to work though the other crypto needs to be compatible, needs to use the same encryption method. Has other (solvable) #gameTheory issues.

What is the status on #AtomicSwaps?

Is it still a pipedream, and if so, what precisely is holding back progress?

@TheFuzzStone@fosstodon.org
Are #AtomicSwaps possible yet between major and #zeroKnowledge #cryptocurrencies yet?
