Assuming we would allow Monero and all other private digital currency competitors (because that’s what they are, we are competing for adoption and market share) to use any future technological advancements funded by ZEC holders, buyers, miners without any restrictions.
What exactly is the benefit for me holding/buying/mining ZEC? Am I just invested into a funding mechanism for ZK research / a privacy science project?
I hope not because I want ZEC to succeed, not Monero or Pirate Chain. Making it as hard as possible to copy-paste or atleast “time-gate” new breakthroughs until ZEC had time to gain adoption and awareness should be the way to go.
