Sections: Privacy, Wraith Protocol
These sections had numerous issues:


 * Weren't written in third person
 * Weren't written with authoritative wikipedia "style"
 * Basically unsourced, citing sources that mentioned text in passing but didn't mention the text itself
 * (therefore original research)
 * Information about atomic swaps felt misleading, it hasn't been released, doesn't seem to ever have been planned in Wraith Protocol
 * Privacy section seemed full of fluff and read like advertising
 * Privacy section seemed to go on about Tor unnecessarily
 * Both sections seemed redundant

In light of this, I have basically chucked them and re-written the text in the wikipedia style, fully sourced.

This page may benefit from a history section. The price sentence in the header is really no longer relevant and better suits a history section.

TL;DR: WP:BOLD
