Before I answer, let me rant about how wrong stupid people are some more, okay?

People are still doing the same thing.

And now they're doing it with Zcash, which breaks my heart.

So you can follow the certain Twitter accounts that will tell you like what are the big whale moves or whatever on the internet, on blockchains.

And one of them will tell you what Zcash transactions have been happening with near intents and all that.

And some other Zcashers watch those and sort of like,

follow up and try to educate people about this.

So as an example, like two days ago or so, one of these other Zcashers pointed out that someone had just moved, they, for the fifth time in a row, moved 1,000.15 ZEC out of the shielded pool of Zcash to some other destination.

And this Zcacher on Twitter pointed out, huh, well, like three months ago, someone moved 5,000.75 ZEC into Zcash, into the shielded pool.

So now this random person on Twitter has now, even though Zcash itself is like my perfect mathematically, has now linked the original 5,000.75 with the five 1,000.15s.

And this is even without AI.

Presumably AIs are currently doing that or will this year.

Okay, so I just want to rant.

People are wrong, wrong, wrong, and they should, like, learn.

But your question was the right question.

You're a good teacher.
Bankless
Zcash Founder on Privacy, AI, and How ZEC is 'Encrypted Bitcoin' | Zooko Wilcox-O'Hearn
The question was, well, what would work?

So it definitely worked with my protein meal purchase.

And the way I think about it, and the other Zcashers have all started repeating this phrase, this maxim, or whatever you call it.
