You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Monero had a surge of transactions last year, probably in a flooding attack, another thing that can drastically reduce privacy, especially when combined with the recently-publicized MAP Decoder Attack.
According to Duke Leto:
"...if the flooding attacker... then use[s] MAP Decoder... that is an effective ring size of 1.3. That is like Waldo hiding in a crowd consisting of himself and 1/3 of another person."
That's pretty scary! 😱
If you use Monero, please read the mitigation techniques I mention below like your life depended on it!

Are you going to continue? I am a Monero user and remember this happening, so would love to know your thoughts.

As I commented in the post, these are really great tips for any chain really. I use multiple wallets and move money around all the time. If the wallet allows multiple addresses, then use that feature for all allowable chains.
Understanding fundamental crypto privacy takes a lot of practice.
