They also chat about how people need to be aware of the impact of last minute authoritarian moves and why crypto users should start opting into privacy preserving technologies like Monero that truly protect our liberty before governments make it even more difficult to do so.

We hope to touch more on that regulation specifically in an upcoming show TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Justin Ehrenhofer and Robby Dermody on the launch of Comply First, an initiative that focuses on providing compliance guidance & resources around privacy preserving cryptocurrencies. Douglas, Justin and Robby discuss how comply first is an open source movement that is set to be a resource for people that want to comply with regulations by giving them the tools that they need to navigate in this area for all cryptocurrencies, not just monero. They aim to accurately reflect a good intersection between regulators and policing in the United States as well as exchanges and services by teaching them how to best support these privacy preserving cryptocurrencies instead of ignoring them. They also chat about what the vision of the company is, if there is a difference between regulating privacy coins vs. transparent ones and what the hestiation is for most exchanges to add monero when the lack of privacy has become a relevant and important factor in bitcoin.

This week, Doug speaks with Mitchell Krawiec-Thayer, Brandon Goodell and Adam Corbo on the results of their recent research proposal, post-quantum strategies for Monero. Mitchell, Brandon and Adam discuss their quantum computer research in-depth and which crypto is more susceptible to quantum attacks. They identified a variety of vulnerabilities and mitigations that users can employ to protect themselves today.
