Unless we're talking different things here, my understanding was that a large enough entity could theoreticaly control a large number of haveno accounts and collect all the off-chain data. Not strictly a haveno issue.

In that sense, bitcoin is already working great and why should anyone ever bother anymore.
The issue has been discussed in the past, it is a real issue and many have already voiced concerns. I'm glad I see people bringing it up every now and then, I would get suspicious if none did.
It looks like the block is announced from the beginning but I don't get how the winner is selected from the FAQ? Am I missing something?
It looks more like year end's housekeeping to be honest. Funny how we always get quieter weekends though and higher activity earlier in the week.
Great list, thank you. Sadly both bitejo.com and successonly.work (listed under marketplaces) have been shut down permanently as far as I know.
I find it funny there's no comments on this yet, it looks like an interesting proposal. Am I missing something?
Monero does instant transactions, visa is proof of stake. They are unrelated things with different uses in mind. I don't understand how you compare the two. What can you do with oxen?
In what sense is it a better monero?
We used to have that for a while, a few years back, and it was great. They dropped it though shortly after because aBuSe. They thought we wouldn't abuse it for some reason.
It was supposed to be a one time code for YOU to withdraw withoud having to bring a card BTW, not other people.
It sounded interesting to me too (initially) don't get me wrong. It can supposedly be melted, it can also get damaged pretty easily and most importantly, there is no way of verifying I'm buying what is being advertised.
The FAQ is all marketing and nothing of value, have a look. The "can it be faked" part gives it all away. There's nothing to do with gold, you trust the company and their "patented technology".
More options are always better, this is not one.

I haven't had the time to look deeper into this but how does that affect anything if you self host or simply choose a different server? The way I understand it, that's exactly what they're pushing for here. How is that "federated platforms"?
