I feel like crypto address-books need a rethink. I saved your address last year… cool. But do you still have access to it? Defeats the point if I have to DM you every time to ask "is this still a good address for you?"

This is one reason interactive payment protocols have always interested me (although they often bring their own challenges)

Zcash unambiguously has the best security response in the world, thanks to @zodl_co and @ZcashFoundation engineers.

The cypherpunks were informed their money was non-compliant. They continued using it anyways.

Hidden inflation bugs are a real, sobering risk (for now). But using it to push centralized panoptoochains as the privacy solution is dead wrong. To paraphrase Churchill: In the morning, ZK payments will be formally verified. And your tech will still be disgustingly un-private.

Anyone who remembers Bitcoin NerdMiner? I used Fable to build Zcash one for me. See you around year 5347, my mined ZEC is close. #zcash #ZEC #miner

Explained scam calls to my 6yo. Her solution: 'Take your number off the internet... actually, just stop using phone numbers forever.' Technoanarchy starts young.

The Zcash engineers are my family, and everything good in my life traces back to Zcash. I couldn't live the rest of my life knowing I committed that kind of betrayal.

Dunking on Zcash for finding this exploit is like laughing at someone for catching cancer early. Your favorite chain is still saying “I feel fine” and refusing the check up.

Already feeling the post-trauma "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" vibes in the Zcash eco. I love this part.

Seems all the music streaming services are going to block my VPN. I guess it's time to self-host my own music library... like I need more things to self-host

Zcash was never down. Many block explorers have been using unpatched nodes. Happens with every network update. Fight the FUD. x.com/cipherscan_app/status/…

Zcash was never down. Our nodes were upgrading to support the NU6.2 network upgrade. You can verify the chain is healthy right now: cipherscan.app/blocks Full thread below on what happened and what we learned.

When's the last time you browsed a site without HTTPS? I genuinely can't remember. In the 2000s, encrypted websites felt like sci-fi. Today, encrypted money does. Give it time.
