Bitcoin's Privacy Gets 'Failing Grade' in 2016 Threat Report

"The Open Bitcoin Privacy Project (OBPP) published its latest study today, which explores the state of bitcoin privacy throughout 2016 and identifies key vulnerabilities in the ecosystem."

"The newest report identifies four major threats that confronted bitcoin users over the past year. These include the merging of co-owned funds into single transactions; the re-use of bitcoin addresses; the linking of network identity to a particular bitcoin address; and the linking of addresses together through network activity."

""Practical improvements to privacy have kind of stopped for the moment. Overall, I would give the industry a pretty failing grade.""

Seems like most people are catching on. BTC is on the way out and privacy-centric crypto is on the way up. If crypto will eventually replace fiat, Bitcoin certainly wont be the coin to do it.

That's like saying internet privacy gets failing grade. Stop being a retard. Currency transactions shouldn't be anonymous anyways. That is only advantages for the corporations who are trying to get away wiith doing sketchy things.

Fiction transaction are easaf for anyo who has ever taken stochastic calculus. One if the easiest things to do is track so called "random" activity.

So how does one stay off the map? say you use your identity to purchase the coin and then push it all to a downloaded wallet without attachment to identity. Would merely making transactions through a proxy stifle the network identity bit?

put it through a mixer and send it to a new address

gets obscured mostly.
>>
>>1780293
send it to several new addresses more like so that the total output don't match the total input from the dirty wallet.

Bitcoin will get more and more private. Currency transactions should of course be private, only state cucks think otherwise.

We will get confidential transactions and mimblewimble making bitcoin as anonymous as it gets.
>>
If you want privacy use monero
>>
>>1782408
Why would anyone use crypto for anything other than privacy?
>>
>>1780286
Buy BTC. Exchange it for Monero. Use tor and send Monero around. Use tor and exchange Monero for BTC.

Why? There are zero benefits for consumers, only businesses benefit.
