✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode:
https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrie...

As the dust settles with Tornado Cash’s sanctioning news and the arrest of Alexey Pertsev, the space is drawing parallels to the early days of crypto, Crypto Wars 1.0.

We brought on OG cypherpunk privacy developer and co-founder of Zcash, Zooko to talk about Crypto Wars 2.0.

Crypto privacy is being tested in new ways and Zooko couldn’t be in a better place to explain the current complexities. What’s the case for crypto privacy? Why is it such a tough problem to solve? Why is Zooko optimistic about the future of crypto privacy?
