CypherStack is a privacy-focused research and development company behind Stack Wallet. Diego handles strategy while Brandon and Luke lead the mathematical research for Monero. They discussed their contributions to FCMPs, a major upgrade aimed at improving Monero’s privacy and scalability. While critics from the Zcash community call FCMPs “unproven,” the team explained that it uses well-established mathematics, not untested theory. They also compared Monero’s community-driven model with Zcash’s corporate structure, noting strengths and trade-offs in both approaches. Despite praising Zcash’s Halo 2 privacy tech, they argue Monero’s privacy-by-default design gives it a real-world edge.On timelines, Diego said FCMPs are “three steps from the finish line” but still tackling technical challenges. The episode ends with a candid look at funding struggles in open-source development and a call for continued community support.

JP explains why an earlier 2022–2023 integration attempt stalled due to limitations in Monero's old multisig system and security concerns, and reveals THORChain is now developing a new threshold signature scheme to make Monero swaps trust-minimized and scalable. He outlines an expected rollout through the Vultisig wallet, stagenet, and finally mainnet by Q1 2025. The conversation explores the role of privacy in crypto, competition and collaboration with projects like Serai and Haven, and THORChain’s return to its core mission as a decentralized custodian network. JP emphasizes Monero's importance for financial sovereignty and future AI-driven economies, and invites the Monero community to contribute to the integration effort.

Together, they dive into the contrasts and common ground between Monero and Zcash, exploring both the technical and cultural dynamics of the leading privacy coins. Juraj discusses Zcash’s growing DEX integrations through Zashi Wallet and Near Intents, while Doug shares his experience with a failed swap attempt. They compare this with Monero’s ongoing DEX efforts like Sarai and potential Thorchain integration, highlighting the shared goal of improving usability and interoperability. The two also unpack each project’s funding models, mining approaches, and community cultures, debating decentralization, security, and the future of privacy in crypto. Juraj emphasizes that real adoption often depends more on social dynamics than technical merit, and that long-term holders give privacy coins their true value.
