SLP364 Max Hillebrand ZKSnacks Blacklisting Coins

Max Hillebrand, a bitcoin and privacy educator, also working at ZKSnacks (the company behind Wasabi Wallet) rejoins me to talk about why ZKSnacks is implementing blacklisting, and working with chain surveillance firms. We disagree a lot in this one! But we chat:

• Wasabi Wallet default coordinator implementing censorship
• Coinjoin coordinator models comparison
• The contradiction between being anti surveillance firms and working with them
• Is there a regulatory capture angle here?
• Address re use in Wasabi Wallet
• Wasabi Wallet 2 / wabisabi
