Monero and Zcash in the Age of Exploits w/ Joel Valenzuela (MT 385)

TODAY’S 🎙SHOW: Doug sits down with Joel Valenzuela to discuss the recently disclosed Zcash exploit and what it signals for the future of cryptocurrency security. Joel argues that advances in AI will make vulnerability discovery faster and more effective, forcing all crypto projects—including Monero—to rethink long-held security assumptions.

The conversation examines how the Zcash team handled the exploit, the risks of hidden inflation bugs, and the unique challenges privacy-focused cryptocurrencies face when auditing supply and security. Doug and Joel also compare Monero and Zcash, discuss decentralized exchange infrastructure, privacy coin adoption, and the broader outlook for digital cash in an increasingly regulated and AI-driven world.
