We might be talking cross purposes, the thread I mentioned is not about mining pools, but the value pools of zcash. (or maybe I am misunderstanding)
For example i know someone with a non insignificant amount of zec on a hardware wallet. - I do not think his coins should every be “redistributed” via whatever mechanism for whatever reason.
It is a hill im willing to die on.
I am not replacing one group of money controllers (banks) with another (crypto coders)
I have been hard on the ECC for this reason. Some people ad the ECC share my vision, a lot more of the ZFND did.
Not if they are “pruned” or just all transactions from those pools are refused.
That is exactly what they are talking about (although in a very round about way) - What do we do about legacy value pools? - Governance - Zcash Community Forum - They want to remove the spend ability of it. (sounds like tainting coins…)
Emphasis mine.
Am I missing something obvious? or does my brother have to turnstyle his coins at some point or they lose all value. - Anyone else think the print free zec bug was exploited? I didnt, but now I am not so sure.
