Discussion
Very useful analysis of the vulnerabilities of the current #ashigaru whirlpool implementation. I encourage everyone interested in this topic to read it.

"For users currently considering Ashigaru Terminal, the risk assessment depends largely on their usage patterns and threat model. Users who perform occasional single-round mixing may find the current protections adequate, as they are protected against the most obvious coordinator-based attacks. However, users who engage in frequent mixing or who require long-term anonymity protection should be aware of the cross-round correlation risks."
