Hello all

"Whitepaper," a term in cryptoland ostensively used to describe anything from a diagram to a full scholarly presentation, now pertains to this, Dan's diagrammatic summary of Rev 2 RC 1's trustless mixing process.


Some details attendant upon this:

- We anticipate you'll have a lot of questions about this, so Dan will host a Q&A session this evening here. The intention is to use Dan's summary to build up a public record of shared understanding about XC's technology.

- Trustless mixing is highly similar to, though predates, "coinshuffle", a paper for which is accessible here.

- For clarity, XC's trustless mixing is, in a nutshell, a randomised multipath version of coinshuffle on top of the encrypted P2P Xnode communication protocol.


See you later.

Let's add in the link as a regular linked text so people don't get confused:

http://downloads.xc-official.com/XCurrency/xc-rev2_rc1_summary.pdf

Anyone who hasn't read the CoinShuffle whitepaper yet might want to take a look at the following summary: http://crypsys.mmci.uni-saarland.de/projects/CoinShuffle/

Of course XC is way beyond this coinshuffle algo by adding major security through multipath tech!

Dan also created multipath (including something similar to CoinShuffle) before CoinShuffle was published.

Antopolous is writing a chapter on the alt-currencies and XC is not mentionned in either the POS nor the anon sub chapter. Can any of you pm him to add a summary of XC

How can someone write about something if they don't know what's out there?!?!  It's not like XC is an unknown coin....

I was trying to look for a list of all the PR that XC have and was also published by major sites, but I can't find a list of them all.   Do you have a list of these PR?    Maybe you should have it on both our OP and our website.   I think that is so important to do proper research.

Hmm... yes I've been considering that. It would fit into the timeline on the OP pretty well actually.

Great idea!   Potential investors can see that XC is different than all the other crap coins.

Hi all

The Q&A has begun! Please feel free to submit any questions on trustless mixing to the topic on the official forum.

Dan will wait until a bunch of questions have accumulated and then answer them in one go.

Yes, this is a good way to get out of the circle. I think only Dan can explain to Him the tech behind XC as a technician and visionary

[brother3]

Really impressed at XC's resiliency during this bearish phase for alts!

[policymaker]

So we got a whitepaper that people accustomed to coinshuffle will find interesting, and antonopoulos positive about XC as long as it is presented to him in a professional way, as confirmed of him by twitter.

In addition, 80% of most popular alts(and all) are bleeding, but XC was boosted today. Last but not least, there is a live  Q & A with Dan Metcalf, head developer of XC in our forums.


 What a great day for XC!

No idea? any one else know what's up with this?

Seems these are generic X11 codes and the issue is that they didn't do an explicit cast from void * to each of the individual hashing function required type.     

Does the wallet work though?  If so, I don't think it's a big issue.

I'm impressed that he didn't seem even aware of XC....I think things are going to get very interesting in the next month or so when he and others realize that Dan and team is the real deal.

I think that this is a real indicator on just how under the radar XC is...which won't last for too long.

Exciting times ahead.

[dadon]

It's been good for us in the know to accumulate as much as we can before the word spreads because when it does watch out...XC has been completely overlooked by 90% of this forum, it's the perfect storm.

[G-Bert]

So the q&a is on the XC forum....  So people like those idiots in the fud thread wouldn't be able to ask any questions,   just us lot,  who already pretty much know what's going on.

Would have thought reddit cryptocurrency forum would have been perfect to get a heap more exposure.  Oh well.

I agree with this.  They should open the Q&A up on reddit as well.  Hopefully they will do this.
