Good Afternoon,

It has been reported that Taproot will enable some Monero like features inc=
luding the ability to hide transactions.

If that is the case I offer a full NACK and let me explain.

A part of the benefit of using Bitcoin is its honesty. The full transaction=
 is published on the blockchain. If that were to change so that transaction=
s may be obfuscated from scrutiny then any government would have unlimited =
impetus to ban Bitcoin, and speculation has that is the reason India has be=
en reported to have banned cryptocurrencies already.

I am in support of the expanded use case of Bitcoin without harming the est=
ablished robust fairness and equal equity offered. The core functionality o=
f Bitcoin, its values, must remain unaltered.
