Interesting new #cryptocurrency on the horizon: #MobileCoin is a project by Moxie (creator of Signal and the underlying end-to-end encryption system) to make #crypto payments more user friendly. Ironically, they are doing that by using an anti-user functionality of processors (the secure enclave, made to power DRM) to make a semi-decentralised (federated) #blockchain that node admins cannot fuck with (not even to view transaction details).
