What would happen to transactions on Monero in a post-quantum world? Would all of the transactions become transparent to the 3/4 letter agencies?
Does the 'mixing' of coins happen on a server (so you trust the server not to log anything) or does it happen p2p so said agencies can analyze the network?
- choffman 11y agoI'm not sure that anyone can speak to what happens to crypto in a post quantum world. Mixing does not happen on a server - that would be an atrocious violation of privacy.
