ShadowSend / Dual-key stealth - fake or legit?

vertoe

Three of Nine
SDC announced they release ShadowSend today.

I seem to fail to understand what part of that video is the anon part. All they show is two transactions. It looks even worse than the CLOAK video.

Did anyone look into that yet?

I am wondering:
  1. How can they do that within just a month after launch?
  2. Why are the devs anonymous?
Any opinions?

Re. 1.: They claim their work is based on stealth address implementation [1], which has a reference implementation by Peter Todd [2] and Darkwallet [3]. The devs claim to have improved the algorithm by introducing a dual-key exchange.

Re. 2: As far as i know the main developer has revealed his identity as being "rynomster" [4] - this doesn't make him less anonymous, but at least his work before SDC (code contribution to Cinnicoin) has some credibility.

Why do people mess around with all these scam anonymous coins when the TRUE leader is right in front of us. Why invest in smoke and mirrors when you can invest in Darkcoin? Doesn't make sense to me.

I dont want to move on to FUD threads, I can hardly defend my "fake or legit" threads over at BCT, so if you think this is a scam coin, please do me the favour and link a proof. That's what the thread is about. Proof.
