Tornado Cash, Alexander Pertsev.

• __MatrixMan__ 4y ago
  That's close to what I'm going for, but maybe not a big enough threat. I'd argue that the status quo is that if you have enough money you can do whatever you want. It's sometimes inconvenient. Sometimes you have to have a clever accountant on staff. But you can get it done. Anonymous money is more of the same, except you can fire that accountant. So tornado cash was an optimization of the current status quo. I'm talking about a threat to that status quo. The kind of coordination technology that would let us turn our backs on money so that everybody on wallstreet had to go find real ways to contribute because the people who make the things they want just laugh at their silly dollars.
