TODAY'S SHOW: Douglas Tuman chats with John Woods, the CEO of Nillion - a company focused on building decentralised privacy. Their discussion focuses on Monero’s current position within the privacy ecosystem and the growing debate between Monero and Zcash. John explains how concerns around fungibility and privacy led him from Bitcoin to Monero before examining the health of the Monero community, emerging privacy technologies, and the implications of Zcash’s recent Orchard vulnerability.
The conversation explores the tradeoffs between privacy and auditability, differing trust assumptions in cryptocurrency design, and Monero’s future roadmap, including FCMP++, Seraphis, Jamtis, and post-quantum considerations.
