There's a very large unclaimed bounty for breaking Monero's privacy.

And those two are the tip of the iceberg. Check out Dero for one that's doing smart contracts with homomorphic encryption.

The future of privacy coins, based on these examples, is simply that they work, and will do so as long as the encryption mechanisms do. So we are presented with a question of which applications benefit from public vs private chains.



Dero is the worst name. What were they thinking. Dero/Derro is Australian slang for derelict, poor. It sounds cheap and nasty.

If Mina can rebrand from Corda, (much better name) Dero should think about it too.


Another really interesting one is mina which is looking to do a constant sized state with smart contract abilities.
