Hello, I am a Monero supporter. I would like to ask two questions: First, do you believe that ciphertrace has the ability to track Monero? If it can track Monero, then this will cause concern for Monero believers, because their privacy is somewhat threatened. Second, will Monero officially upgrade the Monero architecture through technical means in the future to fight against security companies like ciphertrace? Thanks!

Ask in #monero for the first question. For the second, monero will improve to enhance privacy, regardless of what ciphertrace can do.

The current big improvement that's worked on is seraphis, a new signing scheme.

"An empirical study of blockchain system vulnerabilities: Modules, types, and patterns"

Paper collects and classifies patched vulnerabilities in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero, and Stellar. May be interesting.
