[DASH/XDN/XMR/SDC] Comparison between the most known anonymous coins (MUST READ)

[Dofus]

Lately it seems anon coins are in the mind of everyone so let's awnser questions.

Updated with a fairer and more objective summary

Do not forget to check out the websites delevering plenty of informations about the many projects going on.

Keep in mind that this is not a fud post. Just an exhaustive summary.

Also, I'm redirecting you on an other kind of chart gathering more coins with different projects. This is not about anonymity but anyway... This is a very nice work thought.

For information: Spec Chart for Major Cryptos
XMR and SDC on the right.

-added a couple rows to make things less contentious for drk/dash
-changed interest to inflation
-removed b2b ready cause they all are
-removed smooth launch to make things less contentious

Hey child_harold, GJ; how about putting that table on our new Wiki?

Thanks man. If the Team wants to use it or something like it they're more than welcome to.

Thanks man for doing it by the way, and I also think it would be good for the team to use it.

I also would like to say that DRK has done a lot for the anonymity in crypto world. I don't really know XMR yet

Good morning. Making coffee.

First this is a technical comparison chart.

This table is open for suggestions, inputs and updates.
Thanks for the links. A quick scan of the inks did not make obvious any fields I should add.
I did note this in the redit link though:

Quote:
"I have mixed feelings regarding Shadowcash. "When something is too good to be true, it usually is". Ring signature + ZKP? Why using both? That being said, Shadowcash does have a cryptographer, a testnet and the ring sig coin will be incompatible with Bitcoin base, since they will use a swap exchange - this lends me to believe there may be something interesting here, but I'm still waiting for their whitepaper."

Well the WP is out, maybe I should ping the author. I think he meant to say NIZKPs rather than ZKP. Too good to be true? We shall see  

As i said any specific recommendations to add/remove or edit certain fields are most welcome.

Is the chart incorrect? I thought it would be helpful to those who wish to disambiguate our technologies.
If you have anything more substantive to add please do so.

I think the question is, can Shadow beat NavajoeCoin and its Double Encryption State of Art Anonymous Network?

drk is untraceable & unlinkable until someone proves otherwise. DRK also has low inflation. This is a failed attempt at advertising.

Provide a less biased review.

I tried a fairer comparison :

If you have something to add, don't hesitate

Much better thanks, glad to know there are people who can be objective. I have studied DRK, and today i have also started looking into XMR so if i have thoughts, i'll fill you in.

Oh come off it, its a comparison, organized in one place. If you don't like it don't post.

Great, I try to be more objective, but I know Shadow Project much better than the others. So an other point of view is a cool addition

Also I think the DRK part is the less documented.

I agree for the first post, but you could also try to add more to the latest comparison

[rustynailer]

Darkcoin has given up in the anon race, why even include them now?

what annual inflation is DRK currently at? if its less than 5% perhaps it should be changed.
Vis-a-vis unlinkable and untraceable that is more contentious, esp after recent events re Evil Kneval

[child_harold]

Dofus: could you pls update OP with the latest chart? thanks

Like i said, objective, let's not deal in hypotheticals and what ifs.

I've followed his thread and it holds no water. There are too many moving parts and not enough fact to make a informed decision. Though i will point out that just a few days later, the DRK dev announces a new approach to the block chain  that is likely incompatible with DRK  codebase.

With respect this is a work in progress.

Please keep inputting so we can create a chart nobody (or almost nobody) can contest
If you have specific issues with the table please mention them.

Looking at the new chart DRK untraceability and unlinkabilty are no longer red
