1 They are like digital siblings, the offspring of the same idea. Tari is a merge mine side chain but as Riccardo did not want to steal developers from Monero, Tari is written in Rust and not C++.
2 Assets that does not have a physical form: NFTs, in game assets, loyalty awards etc. DigitalRightsManagement: a software license is obviously just digital and without this key to the software you are not able to use it.
3 A Trojan is affecting your software, Riccardo thinks most people do not understand why they need privacy, so they must be tricked into using privacy software, thus a Trojan to give privacy to the unknowing user.
4 Tari may be used for copyright issues and if royalties are paid to a company for issuing the rights to watch a movie, the fee can be hidden.

Tari is being architected as a merge-mined sidechain with Monero.

  1. What are ‘digital assets’, and how are they related to ‘DRM’?

Digital assets are in-game items, digital collectibles or digital tickets that can be truly digitally scarce. Someone can prove that they own it in a verifiable manner, and trust that it cannot be easily copied. They can be as secure in their ownership of an asset as they are about any material thing they possess.

  1. Riccardo says Tari is ‘a privacy trojan horse’. Explain. (hint: 10:45)

Most people do not realize they need privacy, so they need to be “tricked” into using privacy-enhancing tools. Ricardo says that Tari is a privacy trojan horse because it can get those people into the ecosystem where Monero is accessible to them.

  1. What is the incentive for copyright holders (like movie studios) to use Tari?

Copyright declaration can be integrated in a digital copy of the movie as a digital asset built on Tari blockchain. This digital asset can then stand the test of time because as long as the Tari blockchain exists, records of its digital creation will persist. Also, the creator (copyright holder) may choose to receive a fraction of the transaction every time this digitally copyrighted movie changes hands.
