Is it about the token? No Is it about them not wanting to use Monero? No. It's about who the investors are and how they talk about complying with the rules. It's about understanding who's behind it all. They've recently received a massive investment from this parasitic globalist elite. Did you read my old post carefully? We need to look beyond the obvious; we need to understand what's being left unsaid but is actually happening. You need to read all three layers of information. Connect the dots you see.

Yeah I agree VC is always worthy of skepticism, but until we have evidence that the source code or general anonymity model of SimpleX is compromised we shouldn't arbitrarily shy away. Because of this VC investment, we certainly should be more careful though.

VC money is concerning because at the end they want some form of return and this token idea is one of them to get income both for dev work and the investors. investements are only for ROIs. as long as everything is developed in the open and they freely allow self hosting without any hidden restriction like Minio did recently. it could work
The thing is. We are currently creating SimpleX network effect and I want to stop early before bringing all my contacts to SimpleX. I am sure there is a chance to make this right for Evgeny. But how he talks about KYC (as if money would not be free speech) shows his misunderstanding or his true colors or its his backers doing the communication. Everything worries me.
Yeah it's not great, that last tweet is quite damning for him. I'm trying to keep an open mind but it seems he wants to steer it towards a permissioned, KYC direction. I was always wary of their initial funding model but it may seem like now it's coming to light their true plans.
