ManyKeys on Nostr: Monero frens skip over the key distinction: using cryptography for ownership and ...
Monero frens skip over the key distinction: using cryptography for ownership and transactions is not the same as using cryptography to prove supply correctness. One is basic to any digital money; the other introduces deeper, harder-to-audit assumptions. Instead of engaging that structural difference, they drift into No True Scotsman moves and motte-and-bailey pivots that recast a technical point as an identity argument.
