Edward Snowden labeled Bitcoin as not safe
CITIZ:
The former intelligence officer and whistleblower Edward Snowden has described Bitcoin as "not safe". He also praised the competing cryptocurrency Zcash (abbreviation ZEC) because, in contrast to Bitcoin, this could ensure the privacy of the users.
Snowden made these comments in response to a Twitter user who wrote, "Zcash is the only Altcoin I know, designed and programmed by professional and academic cryptographers. Difficult to ignore. "
Snowden then said, "Approval. Because of its data protection technology, Zcash is the most interesting Bitcoin alternative. Bitcoin is great, but if it's not secret, it's not safe. "
In fact, Bitcoin is not really anonymous. Because all transactions are recorded with the recipient address and all the addresses of the sender in the blockchain for all eternity.
