Ep 38. Max Hillebrand on Privacy, Praxeology, Prosperity, Philosophy & Practicality
Wake Up Podcast with Svetski
Hillebrand (Wasabi) argues Bitcoin's transparent UTXO model enables economical full-node verification and mass adoption, contrasting with Monero's ring signatures, which require storing all outputs indefinitely and scale worse. Privacy layers (coinjoin, taproot, Lightning) augment Bitcoin's verifiable ledger without sacrificing transparency, preserving economic incentives to defeat fiat at scale.
