TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode of Monero Talk, Douglas Tuman talks with JP from THORChain to discuss the project’s renewed effort to integrate Monero (XMR) into its decentralized cross-chain liquidity protocol. JP explains why an earlier 2022–2023 integration attempt stalled due to limitations in Monero's old multisig system and security concerns, and reveals THORChain is now developing a new threshold signature scheme to make Monero swaps trust-minimized and scalable. He outlines an expected rollout through the Vultisig wallet, stagenet, and finally mainnet by Q1 2025.
The conversation explores the role of privacy in crypto, competition and collaboration with projects like Serai and Haven, and THORChain’s return to its core mission as a decentralized custodian network. JP emphasizes Monero's importance for financial sovereignty and future AI-driven economies, and invites the Monero community to contribute to the integration effort.
