Rings won't expand because they won't exist. They're being replaced with cryptographic accumulators. And you can't deanon those with spam.

But I'm guessing you'll have an issue that it addressed your criticism with a hardfork. Damned if we do or don't.

Youre literally admitting here that your chain is currently not in working order.

Lol.

It's a well known and understood weakness that has always been publicly communicated. It's not that it breaks security guarantees. If you are a person under threat by government forces you need to take extra steps like self-spends aka churning and other opsec relevant precautions.

"not in working order" is exaggerated. Sender privacy is not in the most ideal state possible.

Amount and receiver unaffected.

It's still better than 99.9% of cryptocurrencies.

You don't even need a spam attack to deanon Bitcoin. That comes built in by default.
