MODERATORS
 

Stay on topic:

  • This thread is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero.
  • NOT the positive aspects of it.
  • Discussion can relate to the technology itself or its economics.
  • Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well.
  • Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero.

How it works:

  • Post your concerns about Monero in reply to this thread.
  • If you can address these concerns, or add further details to them – reply to that comment. This will make it easily sort-able.
  • Upvote the comments that are the most valid criticisms of it that have few or no real honest solutions/answers to them.
  • The comment that mentions the biggest problems of Monero should have the most karma.

Good! It would be nice to have that written somewhere accessible for all.

In case of Tornado Cash treatment everyone would also need a way to verify the signatures and authenticity for repos, links etc. That's not trivial either.

Nah that's easy too. you need to make sure the developers use PGP keys to confirm their identity. https://blog.nowhere.moe/opsec/pgp/index.html + https://blog.nowhere.moe/opsec/whonixqemuvms/index.html

but yeah the idea is to have a Disaster recovery plan, kind of idea.
