When thinking about a cryptocurrency, there are a bunch of different attack surfaces (to name a few):
* client (wallet)
* network from client to node (network)
* node
* network node to node (consensus)
* ledger
Each one has a different attack surface and threat model. Mimblewimble is a neat solution to the ledger, at rest, threat model. I still think zcash is the king right now when it comes to privacy, but obviously mimblewimble is a cool approach to scaling. It’s a really fascinating space.
