#Keet or #Pear or @Bitkit could help make #Bitcoin transactions private by allowing nodes to connect directly to each other out of band & then you could have a few peers randomly broadcast your transactions instead of you

I have never broadcast a transaction from ANY of my nodes. Instead opting to broadcast via an onion enabled site that does this for me. We need more of that.

Keet here is the opposite approach, exposing your IP endpoints, and not ideal for privacy

Well the idea is that you only connect to people you know & trust, but if it's set up right, peers could be relaying your transactions in the background.

Warning for Bitkit!! They rug people. (I didn’t lose much but still it was 30000 sats)

It has been under development & they have made that very clear. They work to help people recover stuff all the time. They aren't purposely stealing anything.

Ok. I seems plausible.

So this just obfuscates where the txn was first broadcast from?

Yes, it's dandelion without needing dandelion

Sparrow Wallet can be set to broadcast transactions over tor to large public nodes so as not to offer links from your transaction to your node. I have Sparrow connected locally to my node but anything out from Sparrow is over tor.
