BTC may be at the same price it was 5 years ago but it’s not like there’s been any other world changing technologies to invest in during that same time frame
@ColumbusBitcoin@sesi_the_man They would either go for coins that are considered 'lost' with no known owner, or sign contracts with people who lost their coins but still have their xpubs.
@ColumbusBitcoin@sesi_the_man You are considering what a criminal would do, but it won't be a criminal who has the quantum computer but a corporation. They are not going to steal random utxos and sell them on coinbase.
@sesi_the_man@ColumbusBitcoin Depends, if it takes a lot of effort and money to break one key and it goes slowly probably not. If they it's trivial to break 20.000 keys the party is over.
I’ve heard people call FMCP++ just a “larger mixer” of the current Monero ring signature. Calling FCMP++ a "large mixer" is just plain wrong and it shows the lack of understanding. A mixer pools and shuffles different users' coins together whereas FCMP++ mixes nothing and involves no one else. It's a membership proof: you prove your output is one of every output ever created on the Monero blockchain, without revealing which one. No pool, no counterparty, no custodian. It’s just math, verified by consensus. Get the terminology right.
