i hope you read passed the glossy features page and read the how and why. and technicals involved. fully understanding it before proclaiming it as great

until you learn that mimblewimble "managers" get to move funds into different blocks so they can mix funds about without your express consent. and the 'hope' they put funds back into your address after playing around.. to then prune off the 'spent' blocks. because your funds are then hopefully in newblocks under your address again

im just glad they are not considering it for bitcoin and just going to play with it on a sidechain
