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 been reported to have banned cryptocurren= cies 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.
