What do you do for a living?

Work in cryptography, applied cryptography, enterprise architecture with blockchain, and security architecture.

Do you do this for a company or any specific projects? I’m just trying to understand because I’m also a big fan of ZCASH but your statements are so bold and matter-of-fact, so I want to learn more about you and see what experiences you have that qualify those statements.

Thanks in advance!

The person you’re asking kind of gave all the information needed to verify. Second rule in crypto: don’t trust, verify ;)

OC sounds legit but if you look at peoples credentials as proxy for trustworthiness you will get burned. Just look at the sketchy endeavors of David Chaum, for one.

So why not apply for a ZEC grant and make it better?
