Ir would be good if you compared various crypto currencies. I did my own research and found that many that claim so are in fact not finite, for many reason. A cypher would tell you that information (including a trade) has value only if no one except the sender + receiver know that an exchange took place and neither know what is inside). Metadata is a HUGE deal, as you can see in declassified CIA panama coup d'état. It is also the main suspect in "Signal Tucker/Putin" leak (with Patriot Act hardware backdoors on our very devices).
1/ Non systematic privacy coins like zcash or LTC are know to be non private due to non private data set by users.
2/ Public eternal blockchains are know to be one day subject to reverse public/private key attack (even monero). A public register (like blockchain) should not publish any sensitive information neither be eternal.
3/ To many cryptocurrencies dont include systematic protection against meta data too. Of course you can shield yourself (tor/i2p, private router, etc) but same with non systematic privacy feature coins, it requires a vast majority of people around (including older generations) to be super geeks/cypher educated.
So far I only found one crypto currency that could be considered as private as trading with metal coins, it's Epic cash. Others are pseudonymous (= can be spyied and linked to your identity with enough work), like BTC.
But we sure will be glad to have your thought on this.
Hope this time my comment is more understandable. Tilman is a great source of knowledge on substack, in case you need some expert.
If you'd like to rephrase your comment to addressing the benefits of epic cash I'll let your comment stand :) I'm not a fan of superlatives like "the ONLY", and buzz words like "full spectrum", but more than happy for you to make a new post explaining what you mean if this is something you feel has value. I'll delete the above in a bit <3

Sincere thanks for all your work.
Darknet Diaries had a really good breakdown of what happened with Phil Zimmermann. Check it out on Vital Context:
