Very cool. So this goes onto my social media for people to check out now.
ByteCoin - test it, view the source code, use it:

https://bytecoin.org/

I don't think most people will understand how it is different than
zerocash except if you explain that it is "more lightweight" or in similar
less technical terms.

Thanks for getting the info out. I hadn't seen their page until now!

(Still, I'm really looking forward to zerocash, which I don't see as
vaporware... I am very confident it will be tremendously powerful and just
one of the various blossoming anonymous cryptos of 2015.)
