Reviewing Privacy-Enhancing Proposals For Bitcoin
By Seth For Privacy Privacy is fundamental to achieve true freedom. Without it, an authoritarian regime could easily resort to censorship or coercion to stop those that oppose them. Fortunately, no matter how powerful a tyrant could be, no one could ever stop the Bitcoin network from operating, but unfortunately, it is traceable and not totally private. Bitcoin is certainly unstoppable but its users are not. For that reason, it is important to study and evaluate possible privacy improvements to Bitcoin's protocol.
This article is a detailed list of Bitcoin proposals and ideas to improve privacy that either are still a work in progress, were abandoned or never implemented, or failed to make an impact. Its author commentates and shares his insight about the proposals, describes the status, pros and cons of each one of them, and for those interested, he also shares further readings. |
