Renwick, R., & Gleasure, R. (2020). Those who control the code control
the rules: How different perspectives of privacy are being written
into the code of blockchain systems. Journal of Information
Technology. doi:10.1177/0268396220944406 23 pages.


Monero (statistical) and Zcash (homomorphic) are first generation
and just like Bitcoin (none) will die under the pointless weight of
their own ever growing terabyte++ size blockchains.

Come talk when you have a privacy cryptocurrency
whose "blockchain" (total disk space needed regardless
of what you call it) grows NOT as function of number
of tx (users transactions), but only as function of number
of UTXO (users accounts) in some form of state database
updated by consensus over transactions and the db itself.
