In a recent discussion, StarkWare CEO and Zcash co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson revealed that during his first conversation with Strategy founder and chairman Michael Saylor, they talked about Starknet's mission to advance the Bitcoin economy. They also discussed privacy, with Saylor expressing the view that Bitcoin should not have privacy features, especially not adopting a privacy mode similar to Zcash, as it could give sovereign nations reason to ban it. Ben-Sasson disagreed, suggesting a balance between privacy protection and key visibility. They also exchanged views on OP_CAT, with Saylor concerned about too many and too rapid changes, while Ben-Sasson believed that OP_CAT had undergone extensive debate and research over a decade, making further delays unnecessary.
