It's great that you are bringing this up. Although I consider EOS to be the best Smart contract platform I've been calling BS on @dan's Radical Transparency since Day 1. I've touched the subject here: https://steemit.com/privacy/@vimukthi/the-fallacy-in-dan-s-radical-transparency-and-a-nifty-scaling-solution-for-cryptocurrencies-that-can-also-create-heightened

I'd also like to mention that Zuckerberg was a big transparency advocate. I just hope all will be well. Having consensus to make changes to the blockchain is a necessary thing (Ethereum is a good example) but this is little too much.

As for Monero, It's just an unusable white elephant that would never amount to anything. It's a toxic community and it is the popular privacy coin with worst track record. I'm not surprised by the news at all. Monero has been at worse places.
