Stealth addresses aren't nearly enough. It needs to be mandatory stealth addresses + some sort of mandatory passive mixing that can't be Sybil attacked + Confidential Transactions. At a minimum.
- petertodd 10y agoYup, Stealth Addresses are just a small fix to one usecase, not a general solution. And I say this as the guy who came up with the name and played a part in developing the exact protocol Dark Wallet implemented (many others deserve credit, including for the underlying math).
- ChemicalWarfare 10y agoJust mentioned those since the OP's article is talking about monero using stealth addresses but doesn't mention these when talking about bitcoin. SX and DarkWallet was what kind of pulled me personally into the bitcoin "ecosystem", very entertaining read trying to understand all of that :)
