The email thread discusses the concerns over Taproot increasing privacy and reducing transparency in Bitcoin. LORD HIS EXCELLENCY JAMES HRMH expresses concern that allowing transactions to be obfuscated from scrutiny would harm the honesty and fairness of Bitcoin, which could lead to government bans on cryptocurrencies. Chris Belcher counters that the idea of a fully-transparent Bitcoin is dead due to various privacy tech such as CoinJoin, Lightning Network, PayJoin, change avoidance, avoiding address reuse, etc, along with new ones like CoinSwap and WabiSabi. The discussion also delves into the security of Conjoin or using Wasabi wallet if it relies on third parties, and the use of SPV wallets for producing fully signed transactions. The thread also includes disclosures of affiliations with Jambler.io, a bitcoin mixer, and links to various websites and projects.
