"I've been warning Bitcoin developers for ten years that privacy needs to be provided for at the protocol level," adding that, "This is the final warning. The clock is ticking."
I like Snowden enough to hear out his criticisms. Why is he acting so nervously about a centralized entity failing? IMO you could have seen it coming.
I believe that mixing bitcoin and fungability are not the same concepts. Mixing Bitcoin is a means. Fungability, obfuscation, etc. are concepts of themselves as an end.
For instance: Lightning network makes Bitcoin private without mixing user funds.
Is privacy really needed at the protocol level? How are we feeling on this?
Also, why does he blame bitcoin devs like they do anything more than write code and submit proposals for scrutiny? Wouldn't this be more of a concensus thing? Is he griping at Bitcoin users instead? Does he actually understand Bitcoin after all these years?
