Francisco Cabañas of Monero on Ciphertrace and Cryptocurrency Privacy and Scaling

Francisco Cabañas, a.k.a. ArticMine, of the Monero core team comes on the podcast to discuss all things privacy, beginning with Monero's approach to obfuscating transactions by making privacy-enhancing functions mandatory as well as hiding transaction amounts. We also go into scaling and the concept of using an adaptive block size combined with a tail emission to permanently solve scaling issues, as well as Ciphertrace, the project that alleges it can track Monero transactions.
