Doesn’t ronin dojo node solve this?

Yea running ur own dojo makes this a non issue.

Check out the latest Bit Buy Bit pod with Samourai Wallet. They go over all this stuff, how they are working on decentralizing coordinators, and more. Good listen.

Thanks 🙏

Yes but it is no good if the majority of others in your mixes are not using it. You will stand out through process if elimination in a theoretical possible situation.

If your xpub is not tied to your identity in the first place does it matter?

Yes because they still have your xpub

What can they do with it

Try to follow you on chain and do creepy government things etc. Fuck em

But they don’t know it’s *you*

They know it is someone and depending on how\where you spend that would be the risk....

Worst case is what you said about reducing your anonymity set with those not running dojo. But every remix you do reduces the effect of this because you're also remixing with other dojo users. It gets messy fast.

Remixing is free so I don't know why you wouldn't. Ignoring my oldest, the most recent are 40+ remixes deep. Goodluck using process of elimination to track thru that even in a worst case scenario.

I agree fuck the government they will have a miserable time "trying" to do "chain analysis"

Check this out, more dojo users than I expected tbh if you trust this chart.
